NEW YOLK.

The commercial advices from New York yesterday,
although they extend over a longer period than usual,
contain little of importance. There had been no mate-
rial variation in the stock-market, but the tendency,
especially just before the departure of the steamer, was
towards improvement. The demand for money was
nearly as great as ever, and the rates for unquestion-
able paper were from 12 to 15 per cent. per annum.
Still there had been no additional failures of much mag-
nitude, and confidence was reviving, owing to the con-
tinued cessation of specie shipments and the steady
arrivals from California. The influence of these circum-
stances, however, bad not been felt to the extent antici
pated, since, although the imports of specie dining the
past three weeks had exceeded the exports by. 660,000/.,
and the Treasury had also disbursed 340,0001. in the re-
ddn3ption of Government securities, the increase in the
aggregate amount held by the various New York banks
had been only 260,000/. The absorption of the remain-
der was attributed chiefly to hoarding on the part of
people in the interior of the State, and generally
throughout the West, consequent upon the distrust
created by the multitude of bank suspensions. A.
statement of the affairs of Selden, Withers, and Co.,
Of Washington, the financial agents of the State of Vir-
ginia, had been published, and with the usual result of
showing an enormous deficiency, instead of a surplus,
as promised. The State of Virginia, it was believed,
would lose about 100,0001. or 200,0001., the proceeds of
bonds sole. The imports of foreign goods continued to
show a great contraction, the quantities being less than
a third of those at the corresponding period of laet year.
The total taken during 1854 was now shown to have
been only 16,000,0001. against 18,300,0001. in 1853, al-
though during the first months there was a considerable
increase. On general points nothing of moment bad
transpired. According to a statement in one of the pa-
pers, the Collins' Company have sold their three remain-
ing ships, the Baltic, Pacific, and Atlantic, and they are
to pass into British hands ; but the story appears im-
probable. An active business was taking place in pro-
visions, owing to the demand for the allied armies, and
one vessel was loading for the Crimea direct. In Con-
gress a bill, which was not likely to pass, had been
brought in to pay 1,700,0001. to certain creditors of
Texas, whose only hope of getting anything seemed to
lie in this appeal to the Federal Government, notwith-
standing the unqualified, boast about the political and
moral position of that State lately put forward in reply
to the remarks of the Times on the attempts to raise
money in London and Paris for the railway scheme, in
which Mr. Perry was desirous to invest the proceeds of
his testimonial. The statement of the Galipagos Islands
having been bought of the Republic of Ecuador for
600,000/. rests at present apparently on a report published
by the Panama Star.

THE MYSTERIOUS CiSE OF POISONING AT FINCHLEY.
--Yesterday the jury empanelled to inquire into the
circumstances attending the death of Mr. John South-
gate, who is alleged to have come by his death by taking
oxalic acid, in mistake for Epsom salts, re-assembled at
Eppy's house, Strawberry-vale, Finchley, before Mr.
Wakley, coroner. After a lengthy examination of
several witnesses, the inquiry was adjourned for a fort-
night, in order to allow of Professor Taylor's making the
analysis required by the jury of oxalic acid and Epsom
pelts at Dr, Niell'a establishment,
