THE Nzws PROM AHRRICA IN LIVERPOOL—
There was more ezeitement witnessed on the Liverpool
Excliaoge yesterday, aben the City of Washington was
telegraphed off Cops Clear, than there has been since the
news of the capture of Messrs. Slidell and Mason on board
the Trent was received in Liverpool. It was eonlidently
asserted by gentlemen of Southern proclivities early in the
meeting, that Great had beep driven the Rapidan
with immense lees, bet op the receipt of the news the
tables were turned, cotton became very firm, sad priors at
the close of the market were a shade higher. The wend
opinion on'Obange ill thence has suffered very heavily.ether •
wise his well known snood parities beyond Spottsylvaais
Court-hoes would not have bees abandoned. Private telic
