By her we have received our files of New -York

received from New York to the 24th, by which we
learn that the steamer City of Manekester, from

included the passage oflthe Army Bill in the-Honse,
and a lengthy disenssitra of the bill making appro.

RUmours had 'been in circulation that 'the Presi-

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.

transpired.
The last return of the New -York city banks
showed a decrease ;at loans, $1,629;822 ; increase in

decrease in net c'i.eposits, $310,491. Total specie,
$26,344;955. This; -statement was 'considered very
satisfactory, and had imparted --a. little increased
confidence to th( 3 Stock Market. Money was in
moderate' &man( I, and there .hadi been no important
change in the r rtes of discount. The demand for
Foreign Txchat ige had Ifeen Tmoderate ; and the

COTTON

NEW Yoinei Feb. 22.—Since our-circular of IGth inst.
theirrinee. 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

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. By7teliegrapli 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.

Receipts for the week are 122,000 bales, being 3,000
bales more than in the corresponding week last year ; the
excess in comparison with which shows a total of 1,021,000
bales. 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.

BOMBAY MAIL,

The overland portion of the mail has arrived. 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 NEAPOLITAN REFUGEES,

The news of the revolt of the Neapolitan refugees,
while on their voyage to New York, is confirmed.
The crew were only 17 in number. The number of
refugees was 70, including:l- bishop and 7 priests.
