AMERICAN AFFAIRS. .'ADMISSION OF OREGON INTO TIIE POPULAR EXULTATION ; RETRENCH MENT ; THE TARIFF QUESTION ; ECONOMY DEMANDED; ANNEXATION OF THREE NEW TERRITORIES; EXPANSION OF THE CONFEDERA TION ; ANNEXATION IRRESISTIBLE. PARDONING POWER OF STATE GOVERNORS : PROPOSED RE STRAINTS UPON IT. THE INVENTIVE GENIUS kMERICANS : ENORMOUS NUMBER IMPROVEMENTS IN BREAD- CONGRESS ISOM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT, UNION; OF PATENTS MAKING SUBSTITUTION OF MACHINERY FOR MANUAL LABOUR. The great act of the session of Congress, judging from the rejoicing which its accomplishment has occasioned at Washington, is the admission of Oregon into the Union. There was an ebulition of popular political feeling on the occasion in which both the President and Vice-President of the United-States did not scruple to take part—making speeches which were by no means free from vitu peration of those who had opposed the measure in question. It would be thought strange, would it not—something mitre if not worse—for the First Magistrate, or even the First Minister, of England, to join an exciting and extravagant jubilation over a party triumph in the great council of the nation Yet so it is in republican America. Oregon, next rto . fiexas, will be the largest State of the Union. It is more than four times the size of the State of New York ; and you may form some more correct idea of it when I tell you that New York is nearly •as large as England. But though possessing so extensive an area, Oregon has yet only a scanty population—not at present exceeding, I believe, some fifty thousand. The only other business of much popular interest in Congress, is the work of retrenchment in the national expenditure. So far, however, the proceeding is ioo crude and incomplete to •be judged of aright. It will give great dissatisfaction, it is evident, to all who have hitherto had to do with the expenditure—and who, of course, have failed not to profit by it so enor mously. The Tariff question has continued to agitate the community, more or less, in most of the States, both as a matter of commercial and of political interest. There is certainly a strong aversion among all parties to increase the duties on foreign exports ; and the idea appears to have grown more and more nopular, that by reasonable economy such a reduction of the public expendi ture might be effected as would render any increase of such duties quite unnecessary. It has been shewn, indeed, that the revenue of the present fiscal year would exceed, by several millions, the report submitted by the Secretary of the Treasury. At the same time, while showing this, it is contended that there are numerous items of expenditure that might be reduced, among which the following are enumerated,-litho graphing and engraving, the binding of public documents, the public printing, cutting off the Congressional Globe, the branch mints, the coast survey, &c. ; reducing the army estimates to the amount' of several millions, the navy about $3,000,000; by suspending the work on the public buildings, by reduction of the franking privilege to two ounces, diminishing the number of the mail routes to California, making ocean mail service self-sustaining, and cutting off lighthouses, sup porting them hereafter by tonnage duties. There is no doubt, I believe, that great_extravagance is indulged in some of these things, and that expensive jobs are often perpetrated in conducting them. But then there are so many party and personal interests involved in their disposal, under the present political system, that it would be extremely difficult to accomplish a thorough reform. So long as politics continue a trade or profession, so long as there are private, pecuniary, and family interests to be politically served—there cannot be much economy or retrenchment expected. The attention of Congress has been diverted from the subject of finance by •r,overal interebtiug matters—among others, the generally popular one of the national expansion by the formal annexation of new territories. Three of these are sought to be added to the Confederation—namely, Arizona, Jefferson, and Dacotah. The Committee on Terri tories of the House of Representatives has reported favourably on the petitions for organisa tion presented from all three, and there is no doubt that they will be similarly received in the Senate. Their admission may therefore be re garded as certain. The first of these territories, Arizona, was but yesterday a deserted Mexican province. To-day it is, in population and wealth, .a thousand times better off, needing only the pro tection of a territorial government to make it the most thriving of the new territories. With respect to the resources of Arizona, agricultural and otherwise, it is stated by one w hO h as travelled over that portion of the country by the Rio Mimbres, the old deserted branches of San Bernardina and San Pedro, to the settlements at Santa Cruz, Tucson, to the Pimo villages; that he found climate mild, grazing good, and many rich, beautiful, fertile valleys, capable of producing corn, wheat, rye, oats and vegetables sufficient to subsist a large population,—and, moreover, that it is rich in gold, silver, copper and other valuable minerals, and decidedly the best grazing country on this continent, capable of subsisting millions of cattle without the aid of man. The territory of Jefferson embraces Pike's Peak, and the adjacent country, where, it is said, gold and silver exist in great quantities. This, it seems, is the universal report of all the prospecting parties who have returned from the mining regions ; and it is not thought that these reports, though almost incre dible, are exaggerated. They who ask for its admission into the Confederation contend that it will pour into the States during the coming and succeeding years millions of gold and silver, restoring animation again to commerce, manufac tures, trade, and business generally. The third proposed new territory, that of Dacotali, is formed of five organised counties on ceded lands, together with a large Indian tract within the limits of the former territory of Minnesota, and that portion of Nebraska Territory lying north of about latitude 431 degrees, and south of British America. Its boundaries are the .Rocky Mountains on the west, Minnesota and lowa on the east, the British possessions on the north, and lowa and Nebraska on the south. Its natural resources are also most favour ably reported upon. When these additions are made, the Confederation will consist of thirty two States and nine Territories, covering an area of about 3,300,000 square miles. It is boastingly '.remarked, that, " taking into account the youth of our republic and the trifling cost of blood and treasure at which this immense empire has been secured, we think that we have reason to congra tulate ourselves on havincr proved to the world that the propagandi sm of principles is more fruitful of tfiil of of results than that • the sword. , But then it is affected to be forgotten that there has been nothinc , to resist it—nothing rciatlly to require any " co - it of 6 blood and treasure."ab ou ls all nonsense, therefore, to talk as they do th a e . influence of great fundamental principles, th‘e‘ancieffusion of liberal ideas, and the carefill avoid armed aggres sion against the rights of others' What did the poor Indians know about such yieldid eas , to how in the the world could they ever Novhiacnhy could influence as that of "principles " not comprehend, and to which theywereiNensi ble ? The Mexicans, it is true, w ere in a d position but then, having dese r t e d the i d 'strr.ent icts from sheer incapacity to retain them with advantage, they have fallen without resistance into other hands—or those of a more energetic and enlightened people. Public attention is being called in sonic of the tates, more particularly New York and Ma ssa _ hussetts, to what is denominated " the pa r d on i ng ower," with which the State Governors are in vested, or which they possess by virtue of their sub-national office. This power is not unfrequently much abused; nor can this excite much surprise, when it is remembered, that the. whole governor ship - the whole executive through out,—is generally an affair of party politics. And should ' the connection, by blood or by marriage, of any influential politician, more especially one to whose influence and exertion the Governor has been much indebted for his election to his high office, fall under the punishment of the law—which is too often the case—what more natural than that the grace and favour ,of such an one's pardon should be asked, and granted. For in some States, as for instance in New York, the pardoning power is vested in the Governor alone, instead of being given to the Governor and a Council as in Massa;Massa; c hussetts. But this does not make any difference, since it is too often very much a party concern. The present Governor (Morg-,,n) of New York, however, not only sees but •acirnowledges the evil and seeks to correct it. Much to his credit, he has published certain. rules, which he intends to apply in all cases of application for pardon. Before the application is presented to the Governor, written notice of it is to be given to the District Attorney' of the county where the conviction took place, and in certain minor cases to the magistrate wl3:, presided at the trial, notice is also to be advellisod in the State journal, and in the journal of the county for four weeks, except where, in the opinion of the, Governor, justice roquires a relaxation of the rule, and proof and notice - of the publication is to accom pany the application for pardon. The Governor is also to be furnis&ed, either with notes of the testimony at the trial, or with a statement of the case from the judge or district attorney, and with a certificate from the keeper of the prison as to the prisoner's conduct in confinement. It is also to be stated, whether any previous application for pardon has been mate, and, if so, the case will not be re examined, 'unless the papers disclose facts hitherto unknown. Such regulations appear very likely to check, in same degree, the present abuses of the pardoning power, which are peculiarly liable to arise in a State. where this power depends upon the will - nf one man, and is to be influenced by the applianoes and persuasions which are ordinarily resorted to in order to affect the opinion, -excite the interest, or move the compassion of a single individual ; and particularly when he is exposed to political or party influences. But the whole judicial system wants reforming. Justice is defeated in more and worse ways than by the abuse of the pardoning power in the State Governor's hands. • 'lf there were any dispute before about the in- ventive genius of Americans being predominant and all-pervading, it ought to be set at rest by the `fact, which has just been made public, that nearly Tour thousand patents for new inventions, in 'eluding designs, re-issues, and additional improve ments, have been granted during the past year 1858. " More patents are granted," it is said, "in one month in the United States than in England in the course of a whole year. Whether," it is added, " this arises from our bright, dry climate, which is more stimulating than the dull, foggy atmosphere of John Bull, or from the su perior intelligence and education of the mass of the people, or from the freedom of our institutions, which develope each man's individuality more than in other nations, or from necessity, which is said to be the mother of invention,' or from all these causes together, the fact itself is sufficiently palpable to be placed beyond dispute." It is a faculty which can scarcely fail to be calltd into active and constant exertion among such a " go-a-head" people. A glance at the list of the patented inventions will show the infinity of the purposes to which the faculty has been applied, —for example, it includes patent apple-parers, patent apple-slicers and corers, fly-traps, traps for cockroaches, bugs, rats and other vermin ; a patent hen's nest, and an instrument for detecting bad eggs without breaking them, called an " oonoscope " or " egg-detector," warranted to be " infallible," an " incomparable egg-beater," " washing-boards," and " washing machines," " patent corkscrews," " universal feed cutters," "patent faucets," " patent wrenches," " Boston white and black shoe varnish," " carpet sweepers," " Boston black gloss varnish," " Boston dressing blacking," " celebrated furniture polish," " liquid stove lustre," " patent self-acting ashes sifter." by which fuel and labour are saved, together with other articles of the same kind,—in endless variety, and no doubt they are all very useful in their way. One object to which American invention has lately been, with great vigour and perseverence, directed, is the improvement in bread-making by means of machinery. A bakery upon this principle in Boston hap just been destroyed by fire, in which by means of patent kneading machine, and automatic ovens, as many as fifteen thousand loaves of bread per day could be made, baked, and delivered. The process, or rather the success of it, had excited great in our bread-baking trade, principally from its substi tuting machinery for manual labour, and it is not surprising, therefore, to learn, that the fire was the work of an incendiary. Already, however, has the proposition been made, and well received, in Boston, to form a joint-stock company for the erection of a new steam mechanical bakery, in place of the one just destroyed,—and all the more eagerly responded to on account of the treatment which its enterprising proprietor has received. "On all sides," says one of the city papers, "we hear and read expressions of sympathy with Mr. Russell, and of interest in the enterprise which he had just inaugurated. The most practical way of manifesting this interest and sympathy is, of course, to lend material aid to the plan of erecting a new bakery, according to the scheme des cr ib e d. Mr. Russell has shown that, though cast down, he is not discouraged, by heading the subscription for stock in the new company with a handsome sum." And it is justly added, with reference to the manifest motive of the incendiary, or incendiaries, in the abominable case of fire-raising, that whether as respects the production of bread or anything else, " it is too late in the history of civilisation and progress to decry against the introduction of machinery for the saving of labour—experience having fully demonstrated the fact, that all such improvements add to the wealth of communities and the general welfare, and further, that the few who suffer temporary inconvenience soon share in the benefit which is conferred upon society." But it would seem that education has not yet done its work sufficiently among the working classes of America, to have instilled into them as it ought to do, suck rational principles. RAILWAY AMALGAMATION. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES, Sir,—There is an error in printing the letter I addressed to you on the 25th instant, published in this day's paper ; instead of " very correctly reported," &c., it should be " very currently reported," &c. Since this letter was written, I have seen the report of the St. Helen's Company. That company announced they had transferred their line to the London and North Western Company ; and that there is no intention, on their part, to spend any capital in an extension from Garston, The Great Northern, and Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln shire companies also say they are not to spend capital for this extension. I think I must be right in saying the bill for a railway from Garston to Allerton and Liverpool, is not a boiza jide application. If there is an exten sion at all, it must, I conclude, be made by the London and North Western Company ; circum stances point strongly in this direction. The St. Helen's Company also inform their shareholders that the Warrington and Stockport line is also about to be transferred to the London and,North Western. It may be mentioned also that the Birkenhead, Lancashire, and Cheshire Junction Company are applying for power to make arrangements with the ondon and North Western for ninety-nine years, and that such arrangement is not to be sub mitted to the Board of Trade. If there be no scheme fora monopoly, in regard to the railway traffic of Liverpool, there arc many circumstances requiring explanation. Feb. 28, 1839. A. M. John Hardy, Esq., brother to the Under-Secretary of State for the Home Department, and recently a candidate for Banbury, is now canvassing the electors of Midhurst. The steamer Oneida, with the January mails from Australia, is not expected to reach Suez until about the .sth of March, and the telegram will flat be;Alue LOKIPAI for several days afterward,:, THE NOT TERN TIMES, TUESDAY, MARCH 1, 1859 MARKETS' COMMITTEE, This committee met at eleven o'clock, yesterday, in the Viva Hall ; Mr. Johnson presided, and the other mem bers present w•Jre—Messrs. Shimmin, Haydock, Bowring, Chilton, Hoiden, and Ridley. Mr. Stimmin said, before the business of the meeting comno:nced, ho begged leave to make a few remarks. Tbr....t day fortnight, Mr. Gladstone proposed that reporters de admitted to the meeting of the committee. There was no objection made to the proposition. He (Mr. Shim min) did not object, because he thought they would get through their business much better, and that they would be more careful in their remarks. He found, however, that the report of their first meeting, appeared to be a one-sided affair altogetber. Although a great num ber of gentlemen present took a very active part in the discussion upon that occasion, there was nothing in the report, but Mr. Gladstone, from beginning to end. If he (Mr. Shimmin) had thought at Mr. Gladstone had brJught Corward the motion for his own glorification, he certainty should have objected to it. He had a great respect for Mr. Gladstone, and thought he should be . above such a thing. The report, which he would place in the chairman's hands, was a very one sided a4:fair. Mr. Haydock : What paper is it in ? Mr. Shimminz In the Liverpool Mercury. Mr. Huy dock : Is there a report in any other paper ? Mr. Shfinmin No, sir The Chairman believed there was only the one reporter in attendance. As it was the first meeting when a reporter was in attendance, there might be some little irregularity. fle had no doubt that the reporters who attended in future would report the proceedings as cor rectly as they did those of all the other committees. Mr. Shimmin said the report only v contained the speeches of Mr. Gladstone. There was an excellent speech by Mr. Bowring, and yet there was not the slightest notice taken of it. Bowring said the remarks which he thought it in cumbent upon him to make were most certainly not of a character which deserved to be in print, and, thererore, he had no complaint to make upon that subject. Mr. Shimmin : But there is a principle involved in it. (Hear, hear.) The subject then dropped. [ln reference to this subject we may mention that no reporter attended the meeting from this j onrnal, because no intimation was sent that the meeting (which was a special . one) was to be held. As will be seen from the proceedings, no previous meeting had been open to reporters, and, indeed only a few days before a member of our staff had been told by one of the committee, that the resolution to admit reporters could not come into force until it had received the sanction of the council.] THE RECENT CENSURE Or MR. LUYA When the minutes of the last ordinary meeting, and the special meeting had been read, The Chairman referred to a resolution on the books, passing a censure on Mr. Luya for havinm, detained a female in custody in the market. He said the letter con taining the charge seemed very plausible, and the woman's statement was very plausible. Mr. Holden : Has not the matter been settled, Mr. Chairman ? The Chairman said he only wished to refer to it before he signed the proceedings. The inquiry was'not g one into in a satisfactory manner to hi s min d. M r . Luya had no notice that the inquiry was to be gone into at all. The party who caused the unhappy affair was not in attendance. The constable who took part in the affair was not present. In fact, Mr. Luya was left, as it were, almost defenceless. He (the chairman) did not mean to jr cify .Mr. Luya's conduct, but he did not think there had been a fair trial. He had since been informed by persons in the market that the woman used language very unbecoming of a female of her appearance and sphere in life. He did not know whether this was the fact. Mr. Haydock : You must bear in mind that Mr.. Luya admitted the facts. Mr. Ridley : There was no necessity for the woman who was selling the rabbits or the constable to be present, inasmuch as Mr. Luya fully admitted all the charges. The Chairman : It must be borne in mind that Mr. Luya, and all the various superintendents, have always been looked upon as a sort of judges between the buyer and seller. There has been that practice going on since the markets were established. Mr. Ridley : Of detaining persons in custody ? The Chairman: I have no doubt that there may have been a little detention before, to try to get people to adhere to something which the inspector might consider Mr. Shimmin was very happy to hear these remarks from the chairman. Mr. Bowring said this discussion was not in order at all. It there had been any irregularity in the way the matter was gone into, it ought to have been settled at the time. (Hear, hear.) He should be allowed to say that the hairman, in his official capacity, ought to have seen that everything was done as it ought to be done (Hear, hear.) It was now too late to bring the matter on again when the members were entirely at sea with regard to it. When the woman who was aggrieved, and her husband, were before the committee, then was the time to make the observations which had just been made. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Shimmin : The man was the victim of a system. Mr. Bowring : If we go on in this way we shall never get to the end of our business. (Hear, hear.) The Chairman : We must now proceed with the regular business. The remainder of the minutes was then read and confirmed. GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT OF THE MARKETS A great number of applications for the office of general superintendent of the markets was laid before the com mittee. The Chairman"suggested that as a notice was on the books of the Council to rescind the resolution for that appointment, it might be judicious to postpone th e present question until after the Council. Mr. Gladstone (who had recently entered the room) said that notice was nothing to them. They had the authority of the Council to proceed with the appoint ment. They might be liable to all sorts of persons giving notices, if they were to be guided by them. Mr. Bowring moved that the testimonials be referred to the sub-committee to examine and report upon. The motion was seconded, and unanimously agreed to. Mr. Bowring said a subject would shortly come before the committee, to which he desired t o ca ll par ti cu l ar attention, namely, the salary of the person in the imme diate superintendence of St. John's Market under the superintendent of all the markets. It was not a subject which they could go into at that moment with anything like advantage, or upon which they could take immediate action ; bnt he thought it was a matter which they ought to think over and bear in mind for a future occasion. He believed, if not the unanimous opinion, it was the nearly unanimous opinion of the committee, that after the general superintendent had been appointed, the person in charge of St. John's Market would not be so highly remunerated as he was at present. (Hear, hear.) He thought it would be well for the committee to take this subject into consideration, as it effected what they all had in view, the economical and useful working of the markets. He did not mean to propose any resolution upon the subject at the present moment, but merely desired to call attention to it. Mr. Gladstone thought the subject to which kr. Bow ring had alluded a very important one. It would be recollected that he (Mr. Gladstone) had adverted to it in the Council It was quite idle to suppose that the Cor poration would keep three superintendents at their pre sent salary under a general superintendent, and yet profess to act upon any principle of economy. (Hear, hear.) What extension of consideration might be made to those who now held office during their lifetime, or during the period of‘their service under the Corporation, it would, of course, not be possible to say at that moment, but undeniably, as he understood the recommen dation of the committee, the advantage supposed to arise from having one superintendent instead of three, would mainly consist in the fact that there would be a perfect uniformity of system and management throughout. (Hear, hear.) He thought, therefore, that Mr. Bowring was perfectly correct in drawing timely attention to the subject in the manner he had done. This concluded the business. THE CRISIS IN FOREIGN AFFAIRS In the city, according to the Daily News, it is hoped that the unmistakable repugnance of the French nation to war is gradually introducing a spirit of moderation into the Imperial counsels. The Times' city writer says the question with most persons seems to be, will Sardinia consent to have all her expectations disappointed, except upon some secret understanding that the promised end, which has not been found impractical in one way, shall speedily, by the creation of difficulties on the Danube or elsewhere, be brought about in another. A leading article in the Times remarks that if we are to be constantly liable to another outbreak of imperial ambition, it would be almost preferable to have a war at once, and•settle 'the question whether France is to remain the disquicter of Europe, or be bound to good behaviour by the strength of - those about her. The Daily News, in its political article , points out that until the five millions ,italians of Lombardy be relieved from a foreign yoke, Butrope will have "no lasting peace. The Lord of the Isles has arrived from China with 607,500 pounds of tea, and. 1,4.51,,ba1es of silk. MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, Monday Evening. The advices per the Asia state that the New York Cotton Market was firm, though far from being active, on the basis of about 11c for middling. At New Orleans prices were unchanged„ but at Savannah a decline of lc per lb had occr.:cred on the inferior grades. Notwithstandir g these advices, our Cotton Market has been a<tve to-day, and prices may be quoted at 1-16 a advance, the sales reaching 12,000 bales, or 4e-fourth being for export and speculation.

In the Liverpool Produce Markets a quieter business is going forward, and prices are steady. About 8,000 bags Sugar have been sold since Friday,- at 45s 3d for Demerara, 25s 6d to 28s for Havannah (in bond), and 30s 6d for Madras jag gery. Ceara Coffee brought 47s 6d to 48s 6d, and St. Domingo Cocoa 39s per cwt. In Linseed a fair business is doing, at 52s per quarter for Bombay. The stock of Sugar in Liverpool on Saturday was 26,673 tons, of which 9,362 tons were BP, and 17,311 foreign, against 19,623 tons, of which 9,796 tons were BP, and 9,367 tons foreign, in the corre sponding date last year, being an increase this year of 7,050 tons. The market for the Public Funds and Securities opened very steadily this morning, but afterwards became weak, and closed at a decline. Consols opened at 954 for both Money and the Account, and had declined to 954 by noon. At the close they were quoted at 951 to 954. The decline was fully ti per cent. Exchequer Bills were steady at 34 to 37. The New Threes were quoted at 96 1 4 to 964. The London Railway Share Market sympathised with Consols, and, with a very moderate business, prices were somewhat lower. The following were the closing quotations : —Ambergate, Not tingham, and Eastern Junction, 64-, 64 ; Caledonians, 844 ; Eastern Counties, 111, 114 ex. div. ; East Lancashire, 92, 94 ; Edin burgh and Glasgow, 701, 714 ; Great Northern, I 1011, 102 ; Do.

At the London Corn Market, to-day, the supply of English Wheat was moderate; there was a fair demand, at fully last week's prices. Foreign met a more ready sale at full rates. Flour was firmer, and Barley wanted, at high prices. The supply of Oats was small, and the demand good, best de criptions being rather higher in price. Other articles of the trade were steady. The private letters from America were delivered this morning. From them we learn, that a slight concession had been made in the price of sterling bills. Money was in ample supply at late rates. The Breadstuff trade was rather more active, and Wheat was buoyant. Indian Corn was unsettled, and generelly quoted lower. .The Provision Trade was dull, and Scotch Pig Iron maintained late rates. Freights were firm. Commercial advices from Calcutta to 23rd of January state that the demand for Indigo was brisk, at full rates, and Sugar was very firm. Corals were dull and lower. Saltpetre trade larger, at easier prices. Silk firm. Linseed and Rape seed tending downwards. Jutes, Lacs, and Cutch firm. Safflower wanted. In the import trade we may notice that Piece goods were very brisk, and Metals firm. Advices from China state that the China, from Whampoa for London ; Celes tial Gem, from Foo-Choo for London ; Beemah, Testimonial, Runnymede, and Scawfell, from Shanghai for London, and Scutari and Swordfish for the Channel, had cleared—leaving a tonnage of 189,442 tons unemployed in Chinese waters. The ministerial declaration that Lord Cowley's mission is one of peace and conciliation, has had a powerful effect on the Stock Exchange. Consols at one period obtained a rise of to - 7 4 per cent. ; and notwithstanding the very remarkable absence of response on the Paris Bourse, the English Funds left off f: per cent. higher than yesterday. In railway and all other departments of the Stock Ex change, speculative animation likewise prevailed.—Daily New City Article Saturday Evening. The ministerial statement on the Italian question has been followed by a rise of 4 per cent. in the English Funds. The rise would probably have been greater but for the fact that the quotations from Paris skew that the sanguine feeling shewn here is very feebly shared on that side.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE. There was a small supply of both beasts and sheep to-day, viz., 1,596 of the former, and 3,525 of the latter. Beef fully supported last week's rates ; and mutton was again dearer, rather over 8d per lb. being obtained for good sheep, the supply being the smallest for this season. LIVERPOOL COTTON.—The demand for cotton to-day has been good, and prices are 1-16 d per lb higher than on Friday. The sales—including 170 Pernambuco,7ed to 8icl; 500 Egyptian, 71d to lld ; 1,000 Surat, 5d to 64d—are reported 12,000 bales, of which 5,000 are on specula tion and for export. MONTHLY REPORT OF THE WOOL TRADE.—The un eertaintyc.onnected with Continental politiechan had a ver y unfavcr arable influence on business, particularly.on . the Cont; both f Atilt, causing an almost suspension of orders Fr wools as well as goods and yarns, and in many cap Q parcels which were intended for shipment have 4setn resold in this country. At the same time pur ehases for the home trade have been made with great caution, chiefly to meet present requirements ; this has not only checked the advancing tendency in prices, but in the case of English combing wools there has been a decline of 2d per lb., however, a partial recovery has taken place within the last week. The stocks on hand are so very light that should political events become more assuring, there is every prospect that higher prices would at once ensue. The supply of foreign has been reduc e d t o a ver y I o W point, which is sufficient to account for the firmness in prices. The first series of public sales in London of fine Colonial commenced on the 24th instant, and will continue until the 15th March, the quantity to be offered being about 35,000 bales. They hive opened with a very full attendance of the home trade, and prices are fully equal to the closing rates of last November sales. So far the competition from the Continent has been unusually small, and the better classes, chiefly required for that market are going at rather easier rates. East India : The arrivals have been small, and quotations are without change. River Plate : Some small arrivals of the new clip have taken place, which have met with ready sale at from is 6d to 2s for the better class of washed parcels ; unwashed also con tinues in demand, particularly the better kinds, and stocks have been very s much reduced. There has been a good inquiry for Cordova, and sales to some extent could have been effected, if holders had not been so firm in price. Peru : There is a fair demand for the better and lower descriptions, whilst the middle qualities, of which large arrivals have taken place lately, are less inquired for. Alpaca : No sales of importance to report. Egyptian : The arrivals have not been large, and the transactions but limited, as holders are unwilling to make such concessions in price as consumers consider the fall in English bright-hair wools demands. Mohair continues in fair demand, at previous rates. Oporto : In the early part of the month, sales were made at full rates, but since then a reduction proportionate to that in English wools has been demanded, but not yet conceded to by holders ; greasy parcels are not much sought after. Donskoi has been inquired for, but the demand has chiefly been for lower qualities ; anything good is now held firmly at from 9id to 101 d per lb, and the stocks are very small. Iceland : Though there has been some inquiry, the depression in home wools has not been without influence on this article, and only a few sales of best parcels have been made at the quotations. In Turkey and Barbary there is nothing doing, for want of stocks. Irish : Prices have participated in the reduction that has taken place in English as referred to before. In Scotch very little has been done. Sheep skins continue in fair demand, at full prices. HUGHES & RONALD. LOND3N PRODUCE.—The produce markets generally are quiet and inactive. Sugar : A small parcel of fine florette Havannah sold at 48s gd. Tea : Prices are firmer, but no sales of importance reported. Saltpetre : A parcel of 4 per cent refraction sold at 42s 6d. Cotton : 200 bales sold at firm prices. • LONDON Coior.--Weather fine and dry. The arrivals of English and foreign grain during the past week small, as also at this morning's market, fresh up. The condition of English wheat is somewhat improved, but sales as yet are very slow, at about last Monday's prices. Barley and oats in fair request at last rates. In flour no variation. Bonouan Hop.—We continue to have a firm market for nearly all descriptions, at full prices. Fine yearlings are quite as dear as last week ; otherwise the demand is hea vv. METROPOLITAN CATTLE.—The beef trade is rather slow to-day, and in soins instances prices are a shade lower. Sheep sell briskly at an advance of 4d per 81bs. Calves and pigs without alteration, supplies very moderate. Beef ' 3s 4d to 4s 10d; mutton, 4s to 5s 8d : veal, 4s to Os 8d; pork, 3s to 4s 2d ;—per 81bs &c. Total supply : Bea s t s , B r iti s h 3,595, f ore i gn 470; sheep, British 16,452, foreign 980; calves, British 103, foreign 68 ; pigs, British 420. _ LONDON TALLOW.—The market is quiet, at the follow ing. quotations :—Town tallow, 51s 9d, nett cash ; Petersburg Y C on the spot, 52s 6d ; March, 52s 6d ; April to June, 52s 3d to 52s 6d ; April only, 52s 6d; October to December, 52s 3d to 52s 6d. LONDON NONEY.—Consols opened rather weak, and for a short time were offered at 95a, but they soon rallied to 95a to 951, at which th e y rema i ne d s t ea dy. Th e market was influenced by lower quotations from Paris and Vienna. Shares very inactive, and prices have slightly declined. Canadians dull ; French dull. Dutch Rhenish good at 41 to 41. Coax Burraa.—There were only 100 kegs and fir kins at market to-day, which found buyers at the annexed prices : —Firsts, 1265; seconds, 1265; thirds, 104 s ; fourths, 80s ' • fifths, 63s —per ton. GLASGOW Coxes.—There have been several arrivals of French wheat and flour since last market day, which were offered at Wednesday's prices, without leading to much business. Oats were rather cheaper, but we do not notice any change in other articles of trade. GLASGOW IRON.—The market was quiet to-day, hardly any business being done. We quote : No. 1, 503 6d to 50s 9d ; Warrants, 51s 3d to 51s 6d ; Makers' Iron, 50s 6d to 503 9d ; No. 3,50 s 6d to 50s 9d per ton. LIVERPOOL SPRING MEETING —Right Hon. Lord Sefton, G.

The Times appears to have been f a voured 1( „ 1 , 1 4 , 111 c revelations respecting the Ministerial Reform Br o f was introduced last night. Ministers, insteso4eriO franchising boroughs according to an arbitrary 11'10,3t standard, have begun by ascertaining Nvli at nu eig seats are wanted to supply acknowledged defiojel then obtain the number required and no Tr' °- o t' l4 , process of disfranchisement. To supply tb isl uir e ' considerable number of seats, they would not 1 ,7 0 1 P, have recourse to the extension as proposed b, Russell, nor yet to the plan of total disfrancunge,,, largely adopted in the first Reform Bill. No v c 'b o rovt is believed, will be united with any other, and 11 , ° ,,,tt will be entirely disfranchised. The schedule of tu' ' gel"', in fact, correspond to Schedule B of the origi ll _,,' l " Bill. From a certain number of the smaller bor-"LJ turning two members, one will be ithdrawmt." e cc i, ;` seats thus obtained will be given to the which it is intended to create. The nublie, Lyur Times, will not be surprised if the ministerial adopts, as a basis of a county franchise, a Li c ' ec n - tia it will alio be proposed to facilitate the constituencies; largely increased as those of t,„ will be by a system of voting papers. As re tha t borough franchise, the Times is inform ed to" four ministerial bill proposed that the franchise for ai e. and counties shall be uniform, resting on an °%, of £lO. While preserving intact as the b3s;"o' borough franchise the amount fixed by the o„",i 3 i , ' Bill, the ministerial bill seems to extend the fr l 2" bsP persons who, from possession of property in the y ' °f . ),( deposits in Savings Banks, of Stock in the ra n , of pr Railway Shares, may give satisfactory °°` r fitness to assist in imposing burdens upon the C ro ol of others. The Ti mes c om pli me nts the b ill A , simplicity, and says it is probably as stroge phi Government would be able to carry in ', jig temper of the House of Commons and the paw' SHIPPING.
