ARRIVAL OF THE BALTIC.

LIVERPOOL, TII23DAT.
The United States mail steam-ship Baltic, Capt.
Comstock, arrived in our river this evening, with the
usual mails from the United States and British North
American possessions, about 180 passengers, and
specie to the amount of over 200,000 dollars, on
freight.
By this arrival, advice, have been received from
New York to the 9th instant, the date of the de-
parture of the Baltic.
The United States mail steam-ship Hermann, from
Bremen and Southampton, arrived at New York on
the ith instant.

The British and North American royal mail steam•
ship America, from Liverpool, arrived at Boston on
the 7th instant.
The subject of the Fisheries Bill continued to oc-
cupy the public attention, and the steamers Fulton
and Princeton, and a sloop were about to be de-
'patched to the fishing grounds, for the purpose of
protecting the American interest.
The visit of Mr. Crampton, the British ambassa-
dor, to Halifax was said to be for the purpose of per-
suading Admiral Seymour from pressing too hard on
American fishing vessels.

Business was reported to be still generally dull at New
York at the time of the Baltic's departure, whilst the mo-
ney market continued in the same easy condition. In
stocks but few wales had been effected recently, yet the
market was tolerably firm.
In the market for breadstuff. only a limited amount of
business was stated to have been transacted, whilst a slight
decline in prices had taken place. The quotations were :
Western Canal flour 4 dole. 50c. to 4 dole. 621 c. per barrel;
Genesee. prime wheat, I dol. 20c. to 1 dol. 22c. per 60 lbs. ;
Indian corn, round yellow, 66e. to 68c. per bushel; Indian
meal, 2 doh. 871 c. to 3 doh. per barrel.
A fair amount of baiii,su had been transacted in the New
York cotton market, and former quotations had met with
a steady maintenance. On the day of the departure of the
steamer the rates were as follow :—New Orleans and Mobile
middling Vair to fair, 111 to 121 Gents. per lb. ; Upland
middling fair to fair, 111 to 12 cents. per lb. The accounts
received respecting the prospects of the crop were generally
unfavourable, the blooming this year being more in retard
than bu been the ease for many years.
The provision market was tolerably active. A fair de-
mand existed for pork at 16 dole. 60c., with no change to
report in beef.
There was but little doing in freights, which consequently
continued to be quoted very low, viz. :—Freight of flour to
Liverpool, Is. 6d. to Is. 9d. per barrel; grain, 41d. to Cid.
per bushel; cotton, I. to 316 d. per lb.
Bills on London, 1091 to 1091; Paris, 6.121 to 5.13 1.
Rentbarg, 36* to 361 ; Bremen, 79} to 79i.
