AMERICAN MARKETS.

NEW YORK, SATURDAY, MAY 22, A N.—The Stock-
market exhibits a slight improvement, but without any
extensive business doing. The demand for foreign ex-
change has been moderate, at 110 to 1101 on London,
and 5 164 to 5 15 on Paris. The amount of idle capital
in this market is larger than ever before known. There
is great scarcity of good paper, but rates exhibit no
change.
The cotton sales of the past three days have been
8,500 bales, at an advance of 4to over the rates ad-
vised by the Europa, caused by the-Africa's news. Fol-
lowing are the quotations, according to strict Liverpool
classification:—Atlantic cotton—low to good ordinary,
810. to 9c.; low to good middling, 91c. to 100.; middling
fair to fair, 10410. to lOic.; fully fair to good ditto, 1 le.
to 12c. Now (Moans and Mobile—low to good ordinary,
Bic. to 90.; low to good middling, 94c. to lOic.; middling
fair to fair, 11c. to llie.

rates; the receipts are light; shipping transactions small.

THE PLYMOUTH PACKETS.

PLYMOUTH, FRIDAY.--1120Austrilian,;;;NV steam-
ship, Captain Hoseeson, R.N., which left the East India
Docks cn Tuesday for this port, to embark mails for the
Cape, Au,ltralia, &a., arrived here early yesterday merg-
ing from the River. She is said to have made a very
rapid passage, frequently making llfr knots an hour.
Unfortunately, in enterieg the harbour she fouled the
temporary pier at Malay, by which some 30 or 40 feet
of her light bulwarks were broken in, and three of her
boats injured. In consequence of these defects she pro-
ceeded to the dockyard, where she was made complete
in a few hours, and will sail this afternoon on her voyage.
The mail, which is in charge of Commander Barnard,
R.N., was delivered into that officer's charge on
board the vessel, off the dockyard, yesterday; but a
supplementary bag will be made up to the time of her
departure. Every berth on board is taken, and she
will convey from this port no fewer than 180 passengers,
48 of whom are of the first class. She has a general
cargo and 200,000 in specie. Considerable interest is
excited in the departure of this vessel, being the first of
a new line of steam mail-packets from this port. The
pass-ngers who came round in her speak in the highest
possible terms of her accommodations and her capabili-
ties as a sea boat. Her saloon is most chastely fitted.
It is painted a pure white, the panels edged • with gold,
relieved by columns of green Irish marble' with elabo-
rately wrought gold capitals, surmounted by mermaids
in gold in basso relievo, between each of which is a human
head with a bunch of grapes pendant from the mouth,
also in gold.
The accommodation for the second class, if not so or-
namented, possesses every possible comfort, and the same
may be said of the berths of the third-class passengers.
In fact, the Australian Royal Mail Steam-packet Com-
pany appear to have spared no expense in making this,
their first vessel on the line, fully adapted to the pur-
poses intended.

PERILOUS BALLOON DESCENT.—On Thursday even-
ing Mr. S. Chambers, an aeronaut, made an ascent from
Batty's Hippodrome, Kensington, and was speedily out of
sight. The balloon used for the occasion was the " Royal
Hippodrome," which was drifted by the currents in a north-
easterly direction. Owing to the darkness of the evening,
terra firma was completely obscured from the view of the
aeronauts, consisting of Mr. Chambers, his son, and a male
friend. On getting over a certain tract which was considered
the 30-acre field, near Stoke Newington, Mr. Chambers, sen.,
let off the gas, and having thrown out the grappling irons,
made preparations to descend, but on getting within thirty
feet of the ground, to his no small amazement ho found that
if he did so he must do a considerable amount of injury,
inasmuch as the place was a large nursery ground ; and, in
order to avoid demolishing the glass of the hot-houses, he
was compelled to throw out a quantity of ballast, which
caused the machine to re-ascend. in pulling up the grapnel
the three occupants of the car narrowly escaped being
seriously injured; indeed, Mr. Chambers, sen., was some-
what hurt in his hand. After drifting about for some time,
another attempt was made to descend, when it was found
that the balloon was immediately over the great reser-
voirs of the New River Company. Another expedient was
resorted to, to raise the machine, but it dipped the water
two or three times. At length it ascended, and whilst
drifting with the wind it struck a stack of chimneys, and did
some damage to the building. Eventually a clear space was
espied, and the balloon was anchored safely in the grounds
of a private gentleman.
NATIONAL SHIPWRECK INSTITUTION.—An extra•
ordinary general meeting of this institution was held on
Thursday, at the offices in John-street, to consider certain
alterations in the rules and regulations of the society, Mr.
Thomas Wilson, late M.P. for London, in the chair. Tne rules
having been read seriatim, various alterations were proposed
and agreed to, and the minutes of the previous meeting
having been confirmed, it was resolved that a new life-boat
shculd be placed at Bideford, to replace the one stationed
there by the institution in 1830. A reward of 41.105. was
granted for saving a portion of the crew of the brig Amy, of
London, wrecked a short time since, near Barry's Cove, on
the coast of Cork; the brig, having struck on a rock, im-
mediately went to pieces, and out of a crew of 18 persons
only three were saved. Three coast guardsmen, seeing the
unfortunate situation of the shipwrecked men, descended a
stupendous cliff, tied ropes round their bodies, and gently
hauled them up, with the assistance of several countrymen•
The poor men were found to be quite exhausted and almost
naked. Some other formal business having been transacted,
the proceedings closed.

THE 111131IDER IN EAST SMIT/IFlELD.—Yesterday
Mr. Baker resumed the inquiry at the London Hospital rela-
tive to the death of Thomas Manley, aged 21, an Irish la-
bourer, lately residing in Brown Bear-alley, East Smithfield,
who, en Monday morning last, was stabbed in the abdomen
by Giuseppe Ilaroarady, an Italian seaman, with a clasp-
knife, and who, with Emanuelii Antan, charged as acces-
sory, has been under an examination at the Thames Police-
couit before Ir. Yardley, by whom they havo been re-
manded for further evidence. Several witnesses having been
examined, the coroner summed up, and the jury returned a
verdict of "Manslaughter against Giuseppe Ramarady and
lEavraoaurn Ant."
