AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE AMERICA tile following appeared in a late Edition of yesterday.] The British and North American Royal Mail steam ship America, Captain Millar, has arrived in the M erse y, from Boston and Halifa; with 49 passen gers, a nd 574,820 in specie. Draing the passage she experienced very strong easterly and westerly gales. By her we have received our files of New - York papers to the 22nd, and from noston to the 23rd ultimo. By her teleg4phie accounts have 'also been received from New York to the 24th, by which we learn that the steamer City of Manekester, from Liverpool, had arrived out on that day., The Washington advices of the 20th of February state that anather week of . the session of _Congress lad been .frittered away 'without the accomplishment of any business of importance, but tri the 21st the Committee of Ways and Means came to the impor tant conchision that no Tariff Bill should be reported this session.

RUmours had 'been in circulation that 'the Presi dent would transmit to Congress a message, in case of non-action on!the tariff question, reminding them that an Extra Session would be - necessary, but it Was stated there-was no truth in the repott. The Overland Mail from !San Francisco, with advices to' the 24th of .aanuary, 'had-arrived. at St. Louis, but the. news lreceived possessed only a local interest. In commercial matters, nothing new had transpired. The last return of the New - York city banks showed a decrease ;at loans, $1,629;822 ; increase in specie, $925567 ; itecrease in -circulation, $195,583 ; decrease in net c'i.eposits, $310,491.

The demand for Foreign Txchat ige had Ifeen Tmoderate ; and the quotations on Lr mien were firm; t 1091 for bankers' names.

Albert's news, via St. Johns, tej sth February, has-been received. The sales of cotton for the week in Liverpool .amounted to 62,000 bales, and prices had ad vanced 1-16 d .to tld per lb. ' • the quotation for Middling New Orleans was 6 13-16 d, MobileS 6 11-16 d, and Uplands 6 9-ded per lb ; the market on the sth inst., however, closed dull, .aud prices . weak. From Manchester the accounts were -unfavourable,- and the political disquietude was re potted.to be.. increasing. Consols were quoted at 941 to to 0 , 1 . :1,-,per cent. Weliave had rather more life in cotton during the past week,.eaused by the slight reduction in xeceipts at Mobile and New Orleans as advised by telegraph, as compared with last year, as .well as by the more favourfole news from Liverpool, made !. known to us by the arrival -of the Prkce Albert at . - St. John's, with dates to sth February. The buying •lur.3 been confined, to our own spinners, and for export to the- continent of Europe. Holders maintain great firmness, and prices mnst be quoted an He to lc higher amount to on the foth instant. The sales for the week he export for the same time has Cotton in Transitu is still dull of sale, the only 'transac tions reported during the week have been 1,500 bales, New Orleans to,Liverpool, on the basis of id. freight, Low Middling 11c,, barely Middling 11Ac. The offering stock of floating Cotton is now very mueh reduced, though if prices were higher.some large parcels would be put on the market fur sale lit.DAVe. Southern Markets, ..as ..reported by mail, are given in detail elsewhere. By 7 teliegrapli we have the particulars , of a week later from Mobile rind New Orleans. Prices were slightly higheg with large sales. Di Charleston and Savan nah a large business was . done on the 17th and 18th inst. at a slight improvtlnent in the Middling and better grades. The complaints .of the a;fg„...i+— 411;., _ running Atnaning Uotton are on the increase, and a greater ff price is being ` m ade between that grade and di erence in th e poorer than , at any previ ous time this season : clean even running Middling Cotton inlgew Orleans .cannot be bought under 113 c. ; Good Middling, 12 Vie. ; Middling Fair, 13e. to 131 c. At the same tim e the kinantity of the poorer cit4z'ities is increasing, and is more and more hard to dLapose of ; a good deal is considered immerehantable. It will be well, perhaps, if this low stuff .brings 1.• mi 7 r n iute ta r z ters,. that they may be cOnviuce;l7l;el stied by paying more regard to ,quality in future and less to quantity, of such rubbish ,at least.

This will prove the maximum excess of the season ; as we know enough_ already by telegraph to reduce this amount next week some 30,000 bales. There is also some diminution of receipts at interior marketa. — exports fer the week are small, only 59,000 bales, 'of 'which Great Britain gets 27,000 bales, France 12,000 bales. other foreign ports 20,000. Next week the clearantes for Great Britain will be larger, as we have 54,000 baled at Mobile and- New Orleans by telegraph for our next week's table. The stock on hand in our ports is large, sty over a million of bales, and the ease with which it is held is re markable, .taking into view thee circumstances connected with the trade in - Liverpool and Havre, and the 'uncertainty which overhangs the political horizon of Europe.

The letters were despatched to the provinces by the earliest trains. The general intelligence has been anticipated by tele grams. There has been a serious depression in the import market during the fortnight. There was, however, a good inquiry for both mule and •water yarns, and prices were steady. Exports in tolerably good demand, and the tendency of the market was in favour of buyers. Cotton had considerably declined. The Money Market continued very tight. Freights slightly ` •improvea.

The sales to-day amount to 10,000 bales, about one half of which have been taken for Speculation and export. Prices have been very firm.

The Liverpool.Corn.trade continues very dull, and at the Exchange this' morning the attendance was very limipd. 'A small business was done in most articles. Wheat was id per cental lower, and Flour from 2d to 3d lower. The Produce Markets have also been very quiet to-day. No sales reported in either Sugar, Rum, or Molasses. The accounts from Manchester continue much of the same character as those received for some time past. To-day there was a very brisk inquiry for yarns, and prices were very firm. Some consider able transactions were effected on home and con tinental account, but for India there was less doing. The Goods market was rather quiet, but prices were very firm. Although there has been no great amount of busi ness transacted-to-day in the London Stock Market, the tenor of the news from the Continent imparted a much more lively feeling, and Public Securities had, from the opening, an improved tendency. The advance in the Trice of Consols 'for the day, may be noted at about an eighth per cent. At noon they were quoted at 96, and at the close they were quoted at 961 for both Money and the Account, and after official hours they remained steady, about the same point. The closing prices for other securities were—Three per Cents, 961, 963 ; Bank Stock, 228, 230 ; Exchequer Bills (large and small), 36, 39 pm. The London Share market is described as having presented an appearance more favourable than for several weeks past.

At the London Wool Sales this afternoon, the attendance of home buyers has been tolerably good, and nearly the whole of the wool offered has changed hands at full prices. For the Continent very little has been done. From Glasgow we learn that the wool market during the past week has remained quiet. Early in the week, owing to the statements made in Parliament,- and the favourable reports from' 'the continent, spinners appeared more disposed to operate freely, and several transactions have been entered into. Fine colonial wools are scarce, and maintain their prices very firmly. Stocks ,of all kinds are extremely light, which enable holders to watch a favourable opportunity for disposing of their wools. Blackfaced laid and white are in 'moderate demand, and prices remain unchanged. Laid washed Cheviot of good quality is sought after, and, being scarce, full rates are obtained. White worsted wools and skin wools remain stationary. ' Of the Liverpool market, Messrs. Littledale and Co., in their circular issued to-day, say : Apprehensions of war continue to exert a baneful in fluence on the Wool market generally, though variously in each branch.—English Wools, more especially the lustre kinds, which have so long held a favourable pre-eminence, are particularly depressed, having suffered a decline of fully 3d per lb. since the commencement of the . year, and the tendency is still downwards —ln low Foreign Vools a tolerable business continues to be done—the Americans have been operating pretty freely.in "Wools at 10d per lb. and under, and with this, in addition to a limited demand for home consumption, and a few small transactions to the Continent, the market has been moderately supported under the circumstances ; stocks of this class of wools are light; and on the whole; old,prices are well maintained ; in some cases, however, we hear of a to Id per lb being conceded to secure a contract. The London Co lonial sales commenced on the 24th ultimo ; the quantity to be brought forward is 32,400 bales, about half of which are Cape "Wools ; the opening prices were con sidered to be pretty much on a parity with the closing rates of last November, with perhaps a trifling advance on Sydney Wools, and no material change has taken place since ; these rates are Id to 14d per lb. lower than those obtained at the Liverpool public sales in January, as well as for sales made by private contract, which may be entirely ascribed to the threatening aspect of affairs on the Continent—for of all the different branches of our Wool manufactories, none appears so sound as -our tine clothing trade. Although the tendency of the Wool market is thus completely reversed by extrane ous causes, so inimical to commercial progress, it is conso latory to know that the consumption as. yet continues undiminished ill every branch, consumers being still engaged In reference to trade in general, and money, we .quote from the same,eircular as follows : We have had another month of doubt and anxiety in Continental affairs one day more pacific, the next more warlike—Ministerial explanatious counteracted by fresh complications—France willing to withdraw, Austria un willing—England and Prussia mediating for Peace, Sardinia and Italy urging on war—whilst each and every Power of Europe . are in the meantime 'making gigantic preparations -for whatever may be the ultimate issue, and thus effectually destroying by their acts, what they wonld fain encourage by th.eir words—the hope of Peace being maintained. The public mind however, has ltei s onie somewhat more assured the last few days, the funds have slightly improved both in Paris and London, and if the' settlement of toe whole of Europe is not to be .overborne by the mind of one individual we must have Peace, Notliing can be more satisfactory than the position of the home-trade in most articles, but even this is kept in check to some extent, by dealers acting strictly on the prin ciple of hand to mouth in supplying. their wants. No ma terial change has taken plaee in the prices of Colonial and other Produce, and Ile speculation of any extent, our market's may be consirbroc.l in .s healthy position, and amenable to sonic improvement should Continental mental matters settle 4lowit Messrs. Martin and Co., in reference to the Hide,. market, say _ The arrivals this month from the , River Plate are , ton fined to the George Metikke, from Monte Video, 'otiiii,ring 2,550 salted ox and cow, and 4,896, salted horse hides. The Coronella, Garland, North Star, and Zwaan, from Buenos Ayres; the Betsy, Teazer, Esther, and Anemone, from Monte Video, have arrived with bone . and bone-ash. The arrivals of hides from other quarters are small. - The market for salted hides during the past month has been very steady, but the small stock of salted: hides here offer ing so little cheidel to buyers the transactions have been limited, the prices realised are about the same as last month, viz., fair to good Buenos Ayres ox, average 614 to 631bs 7 1 d to . 7t-d per lb, tare 5 lbs; light ox, average 491kcs, 7t-d per lb, tare 4 lbs ; common, average 67 lbs, at 6-d per lb - , lard 6 lbs. Monte Video ox, average 68 lbs at 6 . -td per lb, tare 5 lbs ; extra heavy, 74 to 80 lbs at 5-1-d to 6 td.per .1b; tare - 6 and .7 lbs.. Cows, average .47 lbs at 6tl-1 per lb, tare 4 lbs. Stock, 13,653 hides, of which the ! I majority are Monte Video's. The stock markets are still powerfully 'affected by. the pacific assurances put forward in the official organ of the French governinent. Financial pros pects, provided peace be preserved, being extraordi narily brilliant, it is obvious that the weight which has hung upon. the markets throughout Europe since the commencement of the year, has been solely occa sioned by the attitude of France on the Italian question.- - An instantaneous and immense effect is consequently produved by each signal, whether of depression or elation; transmitted from Paris, where the key of the political situation is held. The stock markets are the more susceptible of favourable impression because, as we have repeatedly pointed out, the public, who at present find little eligible 'employment for their money, have, during the last two months, steadily absorbed the stock sold by speculators. In addition, numerous unprotected operations for the fall have been entered into ; and upon any favourable feature there is a rush of speculators anxious to close their accounts. In all the Continental markets the article in the 31,nieeur has occasioned a great rise. The rebound in Austrian securities is in proportion to the late severe depression. The Discount market yesterday was easy, first class bills being readily taken at 2 § l - to 2.1 per cent. At the Bank the applications were'moderate. About half of the 158,400/ in Australian gold, by the Red Jacket, was yesterday taken for the Conti nent, in addition to, the foreign gold coin by the Brazilian mail, steamer Tamar. The limited sum in sovereigns by the latter vessel will go to the Bank. - - The monthly return of the Bank of France will be published on Frid iy . next: The bill empowering the Secretary of State for India to raise money in the United Kingdom for the service of the Indian government, and on the credit of Indian revenues, has been printed. It provides that the money may be raised in funds under the hands and seal of three members of the Council of India, countersigned by the Secretary of State. When the money is not borrowed in bonds, deben tures may be issued, to be paid off at par at a time mentioned in the debenture, the interest meanwhile to be paid half-yearly. Returns of all sums raised in loan or otherwise under the provisions of this act are to be annually presented to parliament. The markets are still powerfully affected by the pacific assurance in the Moniteur. The Funds opened this morning at an advance .of 1, per cent. on the best point reached on Saturday, and a fresh rise of k was subiequently attained. In the afternoon a partial reaction took place, the improved quotation from the Paris Bourse not having come forward, and Consols closed little more than k per cent. better than on Saturday. In the other markets the movement in price was more important. The advance - amounted to about per .cent. in London and North- Western Stock ; I per cent. in Great 'Western, Midland, Lancashire and Yorkshire, South Eastern, Berwick .and North British, and in most other stocks there was a general advance. The Discount Market to-day was easy, first class bills being readily taken at 2k to n per cent. There were no gold operations at the Bank. About half of the £158,400 in Australian gold by the Red Jacket was to-day taken for the Continent. In all the continental markets the article in the 3foniteur has occasioned a rise. Daily „Yews City Article, Monday Evening. - The English Funds opened this morning,- - as was expected would -be the ease with increased buoyancy, which was fully maintained until just before the termina tion of business, when a partial relapse took place. The savings banks purchase consisted of £20,000 Consols, and the general transactions of the day, were numerous, especially in all speculative securities. The minimum rate in the Discount Market 2to 21 per cent. and in the Exchange Stock the average for loans, on stock is not higher than 11 per cent. —Trues City Article, Monday Evening . - The Strathmore has arrived tcom China, with 429,200 lbs. of tea and 1,351 bales of silk. The Brighton Railway traffic returns show, for the week, an increase of £4,204. A telegram from St. Petersburg quotes the Exchange on London at 36d. TRADE IN THE MANUFACTURING DISTRICTS. BRADFORD, Monday.—The Wool market is exceedingly quiet. Little wool changes hands, and where it does, the buyer has genera* the advantage. There is nothinc , new to notice in worsted yarns. Spinners remain well employed to order, chiefly for home consumption. The export houses remain comparatively inactive. In some descriptions of cotton yarns there is a fair average business doing. In pieces there is -a steady business. Manufacturers are well employed to order, thongh new orders are not placed very readily. There is no change in prices. A good business is doing in the warehouses for home wants. ROCHDALE, Monday.—Wool: There is still a cautious feeling amongst manufacturers, and it is only in case of absolute necessity that they come into the market at all, and then only for sorts for immediate consumption. Al though English wools are reported to be lower in London at the current sales than at those in the early part of December last, the feeling in this market is but little changed, owing, probably, to the absence of operations at Bristol last week, where, in consequence of the high prices asked by farmers, staplers refused to operate, and therefore scarcely any transactions took place. Taking the highest rates, at the close of last year, for a round of sorts, they could not be obtained more than id or id cheaper. Business generally has been flat in the warehouses. Flannel : Things to-day continue very inac tive as regards the home trade, although there is a mode rate attetidance. In shipping there is a great quietness, except for the East, where there is a moderate demand for Saxony flannels. For the home trade merchants still ,give out orders sparingly. A slight advantage may be got from needy sellers, but these are very few. Lanca shire and imitation flannels are accumulating in stock. The Yorkshire trade is quiet, but prices are the same as last week. IVIANcuEsTmI, Tuesday: To-day the market for yarns was very stiff, and there was also a fair inquiry for both the continental and the home trade. For India there was less doing. Goods were firm as regards prices, but . the demand was lunch more restricted. ROCHDALE, Monday. —The local, wool market has not improved; if, indeed, there is any change, it is duller than last week. There is an absence of demand, except for fine qualities, and these are only taken in retail quantities. POLICY OF THE WAR PARTY IN THE FRENCH-CABINET. The Paris correspondent of the Times says that Prince Napoleon's resignation was refused at first by the Emperor, and that it ,was only when offered the third or fourth time that it was accepted. From a semi-official source it is stated. that the Prince's re tirement is caused by differences of opinion on questions of internal and external policy, with the greater part of the Cabinet, but especially with Messieurs Walewski and ,Fould. This divergence became wider on the occasion of the note inserted in the Moniteur. It is stated, on the same authority, that on the 'ltalian question the Prince by no means desired an attack on the part of Piedmont, supported by France, in order to expel the Austrians, but he asked that the Emperor's government should proclaim, and cause to be respected, the prin- of non-intervention in .the tiffairs - of Central Italy. The Prince desired that France should notify to the European powers that she would support the demand of Piedmont, and that she should give her the support of her authority in case troubles broke out in the Duchies of Parma and Tuscany or in the Romagna, or should Austria desire to occupy those countries under pretext of establish ing order there against this frank policy. Messieurs Walewski and Fauld supported the system of peace at any price. It .is added that the Emperor, who at the bottom participates in the views of the Prince, did not think it would be ex: pedient to disclose immediately his full ideas by a change of Ministry, but he consented unwillingly to the Prince's retirement. An opinion is expressed that this retirement will only be temporarily. The Time WOOLLEN TRADE or LEEDS, Saturday.—The market has been well attended this morning, and a brisk business done in tweeds, mixture unions, and other light fabrics; in fact these goods form the bulk of the woollen trade at present. Ordinary cloths are sold only to a very limited extent in the public markets. ROCHDALE, Monday. The flannel trade is still quiet, operations being checked by the present political position at home, and the revived rumours of war abroad. WORI3TED. BRADFORD, Monday.—We have had a quiet market to day in all branches of the worsted trade. Very few trans actions have taken place, and prices are nominally the same as last week. HALIFAX, March 5.--We have only a very dull and unsatisfactory state of things to report this week in almost every department of local trade. Little wool has changed hands, and to-day staplers have been unable to make any sales of consequence. YESTERDAY'S MARKETS, LiVERPOOL PRODUCE.—Colonial, &c : Our Produce Markets to-day have been quiet, nothing being reported in Sugar, Molasses, or Ruin.

LIVERPOOL CORN.—Dulness is still the prevailing char acteristic of the grain trade throughout the United King dom, and though, during the past week there is no quotable difference of prices in regard to the leading article, wheat, there has been shown a tendency in some districts to slightly easier rates ; Mark-lane yesterday was quite inanimate, and English samples fully Is per quarter cheaper : the Con tinental markets remain at least on a par with our own, and America is without interest, except as her necessities `may influence a portion of the European supplies, which in 'the usual course are directed to Great Britain and Ireland. The weather has continued prematurely mild, and the 'season appears more like a late than an early period of 'spring ; agricultural work is making rapid progress, and so far vegetation of all kinds promises well for the future, unless hereafter checked by adverse circumstance& Our imports of wheat and flour have been fairly increased, but of other foreign produce we have. not much addition since the middle of last week. The extent of business in wheat this morning is again very limited, and for most descrip tions we must write a reduction of ld per cental from the rates of this day week ; some sorts of American, however, maintain their late value, being now within small compass on the market. Flour is equally dull, and may be noted 2d to 3d per cental lower. In beans, oats, and oatmeal we have no change to note. Indian corn is without alteration in value, upon a limited retail business done. LIVERPOOL SCOTCH PIG IRON.—Our market for warrants closes at 51s 6d to 51s 9d ; no business reported.
