NO. 28' IMPORTANT FROM 4 11l . .iE It I C yit. . ARRIVAL OF THE BALTIC. Northern Daily Times Office, Wednesday Morning. The steam ship Baltic, Captain Comstock, has• just arrived here from New York with advices to the 15th inst., being four day's later than those - re eeived on Saturday by the America. She has brought home 134_ passengers, and One Million of dollars in specie. She spoke the steam- . er Atlantic on the 16th inst. about 125 miles from New York. We subjoin the letter from our correspondent in in New York, from which it will be seen that the news from England taken out by the Canada, had caused quite a panic in the Money Market, and a great excitement in the market for BreadstUffs, the prices for which had again advanced. The Wash ington correspondent of the New York Times says that advices had reached that city, from Havanna supplying intelelligence of important movements of the English. Government, in • con nection with Slavery in' the Island of Cuba. It is stated that a treaty has been concluded with Spain, by which England is permitted to prosecute inCuba a search for slaves that may have been landed, and it is said that there is also a prospect of her concluding a treaty by which she will withdraw her cruisers from the coast and permit slaves to be landed ad libitum, on condition that they shall be. made Emancipados for ten years, -and that Slavery shall be abolished in Cuba at the end of fifty years. The TIMES says :—These movements, if the re port of them proves to be well-founded, will attract • the very general attention of the country. The advices from New Orleans report the weather as cool and fine, and thousands of absentee's are returning, considering the danger from yellow fever entirely over. The health of Mobile is nearly restored, and there are only occasionally cases of yellow fever. The yellow fever was still prevailing in 'various towns of Mississippi and Louisiana. Natchez is now free from the epidemic, and trade is reviving there. The fever had disappeared from Thibo deaux, but at Yazoo City it was still raging se verely. - Advices from Mexico to the 13th inst. had been received. There were reports of a revolution at Yucatan, and a steamer with three hundred troops had been despatched to quell it. Don Lino Alcorta had been - Appointed minister of war. A New Or leans paper states that a conspiracy had been dis covered at Puebla, involving several persons of influence, some of whom had been ordered to leave the country. The Neth York Herald says :—Our Washington despatches.this morning contain some interesting intelligence. An effort is to be made to render the navy more efficient, in view of the anticipated troubles in Europe The suspension of the busi ness of Mr. Draper appears to have caused quite a sensation at the capital. Captain Gibson has imself satisfied with the Himself pub lished a letter expressing action of the government in his case. Governor Seymour, yesterday resigned his office of Governor of Connecticut, to assume the duties of the Russian mission, and Lieutenant Governor Pond was sworn in as chief executive of the State, (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) New York, Saturday Morning, Oct. 15. By the Collins steamer Baltic I send you a sum mary of the latest news, up to the hour of the sailing of the steamer. The steam-ship Humboldt from Havre and Southampton, arrived at this port last evening after a very rough passage. Her news Was in substance anticipated by the Canada's ar rival at Halifax on Thursday -morning. The \ Canada reached Boston last night at 1.04 p.m. Her mails &c. will reach us this afternoon at 4 o'clock. From Washington we learn that some move ments were going . on in the Navy Yard, for putting that force in better trim, (in case of need.) It is said that the United States Navy does not possess one steamer of war that is in a fit state to cross the Atlantic. One of the leading I;ew York papers, on the 14 th inst „ states that Mr. Dobbin, the Secretary of the Navy, had on Thur s day last, visited the Collin's steamer Baltic; he afterwards proceeded to Washington. It iS Surmised that the Government intend buying this vessel, and converting her into a steamer of war. J. 11. Young.has been commissioned as Consul to Curacoa. The Washington Star announces that James Gordon Bennett, of the New York Herald, is a disappointed applicant for the mission to France. General Dix is to be released from the office of the Secretary of the Treasury at New , Yolk. General Almonte Mexican Minister at Wash ington, in a communication to the New York Herald denies the fact that Santa Anna entertains the notion of the substitution of Empire for the pre sent existing Republic. Advices have reached Washington . stating that Yellow Fever had d broken out near - the Naval Ren desvous at Fell's Point, Baltimore. The Govern ment have been informed of serious troubles having broken out in the Cherokee nation ; a portion of the natives were in arms against the Government, and had killed two of Ross's party. Some heavy snow had fallen in New Hampshire; a letter from that place, dated on the 12th inst. says that Mount Washington was covered to the • depth of two feet. Since my last advices per the America, com mercial affairs in New York have been wildly ex-. cited. The demand for money has become greater, Printed and Published by CHARLES WILLMER, of 21, Oxford—street, at his General Printing and Liverpool. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1863. T v ' 1 ILLTi 1 SECOA .1) P LA I THE NORTHER': - DAILY TIMES. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1853 while the supply upon the market has been less Most of the banks have, in a measure, curtailed their amount of discounts, and even what they do is done at very exhorbitant rates, say from 10 to 18 per cent. On the receipt of the Canada's news, by telegraph - from Halifax, late on in the day of Thursday a most severe stringency - arose in money circles, which almost , amounted to a . panic. The failure which wats announced on that day of one of our Wall-street brokers, (Mr. Simeon Draper,) had an effect upon the business, in the street, and the day closed heavily, probably the darkest day in Wall Street that has been ex perienced this year. The Stock Market fell .off considerably in almost all descriptions from three to five, and even seven per cent. On Friday in consequence, of further news by the Canada tele graphed from Halifax, which, was less unfavorable, the market for money was a shade better, and stocks looked up a little, but closed at from four to five per cent lower than on Wednesday, for nearly all descriptions. The market for breadstuffs has again advanced under the advices brought out by the Canada, but the transactions have not been large, shippers are inclined to await their private letters: most of the transactions have been -made for future deli Very. The increased rates may be quoted at 25 cents- for flour, and 4 cents onl wheat. The stock on hand is limited at present, but as the winter draws upon us, the supplies will be forced upon the market. The cotton market, owing to the continued un favourable advices from Europe, continues languid, and prices drooping. Notwithstanding, the reports froin the south, of the shortness of the crop, the sales have not averaged 400 bales per day, Tor the last week or two. In the provision markk we have to notice an active demand for pork, at rather higher prices. In other articles there is no change. Freights continue extravagently high, to Liver pool flour is quoted at 3s. 6d. to 4s. per barrel, and wheat 14d. to 15d. per bushel. Exchange on Lon don for remittance, per the Baltic has been some what less in demand, and lower rates are current. We quote bills at sixty days, at 1031 to 104. NEW YORK MARKETS. FRIDAY Oct. 14-6 P.M. _ _ _ ASHES—Are unsettled. The scanty stock and light re ceipts have induced factors to advance their claims, which have checked operations. A few parcels were sold at ir regular prices. COTTON—The business of the day, as of the entire week, has , been qUite insignificant; as shippers have avoided the market, and the home inquiry has been very limited.

Subsequently, with a rise in freights and an inclination among buyers to await the arrival of their private correspondence, some reaction occurred, and less vigour was displayed by the market, as well as by prices, which slightly declined. At the close, however, we observe a livelier and better feeling in the trade, the tendency being decidedly upward. The day's movehients . comprise 21,000 bbls.

REVIEW OF THE MARKET, ECT. .. 45,000 16,000 We issued our last circular for the Artie on the Ist inst The sales since that date, excluding one day, on which 5,000 bales were reported, have steadly kept down to 500 hales daily. The feeling throughout, with the exception named, and which was confined to two or three ardent spirits, has been one of uniform excessive dullness and apathy—prices being nominally sustained by the hopes of holders in receiving aid from the expec ted improvement in the Liverpool market, and a settle ment of the disquieting Eastern question, in both of which they have been dissappointed, apd in the dubious position of thepresent crop rests the hope of continuing business near the present currency. The mills at the'east ward, have for some time past been obliged to concede so much to their hands, that the hours of labor are re duced from thirteen to eleven. They are stocked more largely than heretofore, and it is expected will see the policy of purchasing later and more cautiously than dur ing the previous crop. The Canada's advices, received on 13th inst., simply added to the (lull feeling. We ad just our quotations to the rate accepted: holders endeavor to wait for more, as it would be impossible to obtain them in quantity. The advises we have continued to receive from the South, during the past fortnight, we regret to say, have not been favourable for the crop. The accounts of injury arising from too much Moist weather, say rotting of the bolls, &c., have steadily continued, and extended over a wider surface. The growth of the plant has been luxuriant, but the proportion of bolls has not kept pace therewith, and what has been formed, being covered by foliage, the ripening process has been retarded we . think fully a fortnight as com pared with the past crop. At the present time the weather is not indicat►ve of a long season and a killing frost during the present month, may be reasonably looked for. The effect of such, even at the termination Of the month, would be to curtail the former prospect of a large crop over 100,000 bales. After a frost, we may have ripening weather, and bolls nearly ripe may be gathered after being. hardened under it. So much depends on the character of the weather after a frost, and so largely can the crop be benefitted, .or injured thereby, we think it in advisable to say it cannot reach 3,000,000 bales, but the chances are decidedly against it 'l'.
