The jury found that death resulted from an overdose of laudanum, administered by herself. _ Apply to MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, Friday Evening. The Market for Cotton to-day has been mode, rate, the sales amounting to 6,000 bales, of which 1,000 were for export or taken on speculation. The market closed flatly, at a slight decline on American. Concerning the week's business Messrs. George Holt and Co. say : The successive advices from America, confirming and strengthening-the opinion that•the crop of Cotton will be large,' probably not less than four millions of bales, have tended to liMit business, and given to our market a quiet and dull appearance. Prices• during the week are rather lower—hardly, however, amounting to a reduced quotation of g-d. per lb. upon all qualities of American Cotton ; but the tendency and turn of advantage has been uniformly in favour of buyers. The better qualities, which latterly, on account of their scarceness, commanded relatively very high price's, are the first to feel the effect of the arrivals of the new crop; the few shipments which have already come upon the mar ket have caused a decline in such Cotton within the past fortnight of id. per lb.. The middling qualities are,not equally depressed ; but as the arrivals increase r buyers in these also will have a better choice. We now quote " middling " Uplands, 6id. ; Mobile, 7id. ; and Or leans, 71d. The Committee of Brokers place " fair " - Uplands, 7 5-16 d. ; Mobile, 7-fid. ; and Orleans, 7-4 d. Surats,. and all the long-stapled deseriptions,• Brazils, 'Egyptians, &c., have participated in the general quietness, and are difficult 'of sale at. last Friday's prices. 600 1 American, 50 Surat, and 400 Egyptian aro reported to have been taken on speculation; 2,680 American and 3,060 Surat for export; so that the deliveries to the trade for the week have been about 31,000 bales. The businesS to-day will probably amount to 0;000 b4ei. The Liverpool Share Market to-day was slightly more animated, and 'rather higher prices were paid than those obtainable for several days past. Towards the end of the day, however, the tone. flattened, and business closed with a languid feel . ing.

In the' discotint 'market the de mand has not been very active to-day, and in few exceptional cases less than 21 per cent. was charged. At the Bank a fair business was 'done. The railway market continues quiet, but with a steady upward tendency : the South Eattern has improved a per cent. The funds to-day showed great firmness, but eiperienced no alteration in price. Speculators are disinclined to act until the pending questions will have been submitted to the coming Congress. In the other departments of the, Stock Exchange, notwithstanding the stagnation of business, prices were very firm. In Lombard-street good bills are still taken at the Bank minimum. No transactions in--bullion - at- the -Bank--to-day.-- Daily News. COMMERCIAL. - = The Herald, reports that .a large business was concluded, yesterday, in sugar and rice, at better prices • and in most other articles transactions were of fair extent. The, Mincing-lane markets generally were firm. The Times states that the exchange at St. Peterstiurg - has experienced 'only - a slight reco very.. The Government, however, it is affirmed, are now alive to the evils of the present state of the currency, and will make gradual and honest' efforts to provide a remedy. • The Admiralty, in reply to representations on the expediency of adopting the system of public tender in their contracts for coal freights to the East, admit the soundness of the principle, but state that in especial cases, where the public ser vice requires it, the right of departing from the general principle of competition is reserved.

The inquiry for Coke TinTiates has 'rather slackened, although the late ad vance is maintained.

Tallow has been in moderate demand, at about previous market rates. Lard has been steady. Palm Oil has been rather, negle2ted, without marked deterioration of price.

The Market for English Securities, up to an advanced period of to-day, maintained a steady, if not, indeed, an improved and improving char acter ; but at a later period rather less firmness was shown, and Consols, which opened with pro mise at the closing prices of yesterday, subse quently showed weakness, but eventually reco vered to 961 1 for money, 96f, to for the account. Reduced Three per Cents. have been dealt in 94;4 95 and 944 ; NeW Three per Cents. at the same ; India Debentures, 961 ; Exchequer Bills, 30s. and 275. pm., and 275. pm. for small. The New Indian Loan is quoted at 1041 to 1, showing a slight decline. Ocean Marine Shares have been dealt in at 14 and la. In the English Railway Share Market, though the business done was not large, values were main tained with firmness, and showed a tendency to further improvement. Great Northerns with Berwicks and South Easterns, have advanced per cent. ; Eastern Counties and Lancashire and Yorkshire are marked , each 1 per cent. higher. The Market for Foreign Securities has been almost at a stand, and values in the limited transactions of the early part of the day suffered a relapse. Brazilian, with Original Turkish, are I per cent. lower, and the New Sixes have fallen 9 per cent, having brought 65! and 66 only ; Russian present an exception, and are quoted 1 per cent. higher than last night. The quotation for French Rentes, at 12.10, Was 70f. 20c., and from thence to 70f. 25c., with a firm market. THE FUNDS.-CLOSING PRICES.

Our market, as usual, at this period of the year, is free from any great excitement, and leaves nothing to record of any special importance ; the wants of buyers being readily, met by the dealers, who are still disin clined to purchase, in anticipation of orders. Tenders have been invited for about 2,009 tons of waterlipes for one of our North American Colonies ; and it is not improbable, from the advantage following low freight,that the Scotch- Founders will be the successful competitors.' They are required for shipment from the beginning of March to the' middle of May next, and a very good quality will be imperative to bear the prescribed pressure. Scotch Pig Iron has been very active, and a larger busi ness done in Warrants, from 525. 6d,, as quoted in our last, to 535. 6d. cash, and 545. 3d., three months open, the same influence being at woi k, which caused the move rtent---the uncertainty of a strike aniong the colliers, as the masters resolved at the adjourned meeting, held to-day LIVERPOOL CONSERVATIVE DAILY PAPER. THE "NORTHERN TIMES." _ HIS well-established Daily Paper,—the first that was attempted in the Provueees,—is now, under a new proprietary, devoted to the interests of the great Conservative party. Its principles are those so forcibly expressed by the Earl of Derby, at the recent Liverpool Banquet, when he said; 7 "I speak of that Conservatism which is not obstructive, but which is the best promoter of safe and gradual social improve ment,—of that Conservatism which, strenuously adhering to the old machinery of the Constitution, adapts from time to time the various parts of its mechanism to the real requirements and. the real capacities of the age in which we live,—of that Con servatism which should give to all orders and degrees of men within this realm their due weight, authority, and preponder ance,—of that Conservatism which loves the interests of the _people at large but will not be led away by the noisy_denuncia tions of blustering demagogUeS, either to shrink at the voice .of menace, or timidly to make concessions to large bodies of men for the purpose of obtaining a temporary popularity, when in our hearts we believe the concession of those coveted boons would be the worst injury we could iefliet upon the classes it is sought to benefit." Such is the Conservatism of which the Northern Times is new the faithful and unflinching advocate : and never, perhaps, was t'aere a moment when a temperate and judicious application of the Daily Press to the espousal of its cause, and the dissemination of its principles, was capable of serving more beneficial purposes. _ Hitherto, the Daily Papers of Liverpool have, one and all, been exclusively in the so-called Liberal, that is, the Whig and Radical, interest The Conservative cause has now got its representative, and its advocate, in the local Daily Press. ' It rests with the Conservative party of Liverpool to decide With what efficiency this their Daily organ of the Press shall be maintained. Its success has so far been considerable, — the circulation already secured is large and increasing; it is about three times more than it was when it came into its pre sent hands,---and if all who are Conservatives will only sup port it with their advertisements, and use their active influence to make it a profitable advertising medium, its prosperity, and therefore its influence, will Soon be powerfully strengthened and confirmed. • The late Derby Banquet cannot but have aroused the Con servatives of, Liverpool to a more active course of public duty ; and the obligation, in times like the present, to sustain a Daily Paper in their important interest, cannot fail, to be :acknow ledged, and ought therefore to be acted upon.

The Times of yesterday, writing upon the treaty of Zurich, bore very hardly upon the two more prominent parties to that negotiation,—the Governments, namely, of France and Austria. The latter power, it is contended, has sold Lom bardy- to Piedmont for ten millions sterling. " This is," it adds, "up to the present time, the only certain result of all that has been done and suffered; and even in this transaction Austria pro bably considers that she has an equality of redemp tion which at some more fa,vourable moment she may utilise. However, she has to ken earnest of the money. Europe reads with all the respect which large sums impose that upon the day when the ratifications were exchangid M. Armand deliVered . 'to the Austrian Plenipotentiary a draught at sight for two millions sterling." Doubtless; two millions sterling is itself a hand some sum. The leading journal is of opinion, that in the eyes of an Austrian Minister, it must be a tremendous sum, and wonders what he - will do with it, how he will guard it,---where he will bestow it. And yet this is but one instal ment, be it remembered, of the entire amount, — one of five ; for it is not two millions in all, we repeat, kit ten, which is to be the price-, And we cannot but agree with our contemporary, that, "as an outlying property, with very great out goings, upon the' whole it was well sold ;"' and that perhaps, "the best thing for the seller to do is to pat away all recollection that he ever pos sessed it, and to stifle all idea of ever recovering it." France has sent a new Ambassador to Austria. The Marquis de Moustier has been appointed to that high post. He is understood to be well instructed in the policy - which his Imperial master will henceforth pursue towards a Power with which, he has his own reasons for being, in time to , come, upon as, friendly a. footing as possible. With respect to the French and Austrian interests at the approaching Congress, it is now understood that while France will be represented by one or more of the ablest of her diplomatists, Austria will 'have the advantage• not only of Count Reichberg's, but of Prince Metternich's services also. Some interesting experiments with hollow shot have just been performed at Pbrtsmouth,— it is said, with entire success. These hollow shot are found to have dreadful penetrating powers, and in naval warfare, therefore, nest be exceed ingly destructive. . The inquiry instituted by the Board of Trade respecting the circumstances connected with the loss of the Royal Charter closed yesterday. The investigation, judging from the evidence adduced, has obviously been a flir and searching one. The patient and impartial painstaking on the part of - Captain Harris, on whose professional knowledge so large an amount of the character of the inquiry depended, was as distinct as it was satisfactory — we had almost said pleasing, forgetting that little of a pleasing nature could come out of such an inquiry. While according so much to Captain Harris, we should be direlict in duty to omit a commen dation of the proper judicial spirit evinced by Mr. Mansfield, who, throughout the whole of the in tricate investigation, showed the most careful solicitude to maintain the balance of justice even . To offer an opinion on the merits of the moot points of the inquiry would now be improper— indeed impertinent; but we cannot refrain from directing. attention to the pointed encomium so deservedly paid to all on board the ill-fated ship by Mr. Maa.sfield. It is also pleasing 'to know, that he declared his utter unbelief in the calunf nious attempt to fasten the stain of inebriety on the memory of Captain Taylor. _ The Volunteer movement shows no sign of faltering in its course. We have already had the gratifying duty to perform of recording the en thusiastic manner in which the general com munity, and many of its various sections have come forward to declare their resolution to pre 7 vent aggression, and to 'mulish insult—should suoli be offered to our shores. To-day we chronicle, with equal pleasure, the patriotic feelings which have induced our resident Welsh brethren to emulate the other members of the community, and to offer themselves as a contingent corps of the Liverpool Volunteers. The meeting, which was presided over by Mr. Alderman J. Buck Lloyd, was most enthusiastic, and the termsin which the different speakers evinced their loyal nationality, was at once characteristic and gratifying. Besides the general, fervour of spirit displayed at this meeting, it is almost equally gratifying to record that the " sinews of war" were not forgotten on the occasion, but that in little more than ten minutes, donations to the extent of £265 were received, while £35 a year were subscribed to the annual subscription list. FROM two guineas to :seven-and -sixpence, from Lord DERBY to Mr. BRIGHT—Iet us at alfevents congratulate the projectors of the coming fete on having achieved at the onset a great consistency. We may be granting them a Virtue out of their necessity ; but we can afford: to be generous.

Owing to ' the poor selection - which our present stock affords, and the probability that a change of wind, may, any day, enable a large arrival of overdue vessels, the trade have limited their operations t o , immediate requirements, and the daily sales have been on a moderate scale. Holders continue to evince great desire to clear off present holdings, and have met the demand very freely, - generally submitting to a decline - of /-16 d. to l i d: per lb. - Brazil about Id. per lb. down.
