THE PEACE.

The following is the address which the Earl of
Ellesmere will move in the House of Lords to night:—
That an humble address be presented to her Majesty,
to assure her that, while we should have deemed it our
duty cheerfully to afford the fullest support, if it had
unfortunately been found necessary to continue the war,
we have learned with joy and satisfaction, that ber
Majesty has been enabled to re-establish peace on condi-
tions so honcurable, and which so fully accomplish the
great objects for which the war was undertaken. To
express to her Majesty the great satisfaction which we
feel, that while those alliances, which have so materially
contributed to the vigorous and successful prosecution
of the war have been equally effective in the consolida-
tion of peace, the powers which have not taken any active
part in the war, have combined with the belligerents,
and have given, by their sanction and accession, addi-
tional firmness to the arrangements by which the repose
of Europe is in future to be protected from disturbance.
To state to her Majesty that we rejoice that, notwith-
standing the great exertions which the late war rendered
necessary, the resources of the empire remain unim-
paired. To express a hope that the peace now con-
cluded may, under the favour of Divine Providence,
long continue to shed its blessings over Europe ; and
that harmony among governments, and friendly inter-
course among nations, may steadily promote the progress
of civilisation, and secure the welfare and happiness of
mankind.

The address will be seconded by Lord Stanley

ARRIVAL OF THE WASHINGTON

SOUTHAMPTON, SUNDAY,

The steamer Washington has arrived here today
from New York, with dates to the 19th ult., ancl)
the usual mail for England and the continent. The:
advices are four days later than those previouslY,
received, and from them we learn that the steamer:
Baltic, from Liverpool, had arrived out at Nov
York. The news of the Went of General Walker
had been received, but the pz2blished accounts
contain nothing beyond what appeared in the
NORTHERN TIMES of Friday last. The e;Nllnercial
advices are of much the same character as ;hose

received by the last mail. The Money Market WAS
rather more stringent, but still the supply of eaPl.
tal was pretty nearly equal to the demand, and the
rates of interest without material change. rrle'',
demand for Exchange on London was limited, Oa'
the quotations remained without alteration. There'
was a fair amount of business doing in the Cotton
Market, and prices were firm. The market for
Breadstuffs presented no new feature. The de-
mand for freight was limited, and the rates 111
consequence were barely so firm.
