CITY (THIS DAY): TWELVE O'CLOCK.
LIVRRPOOL COTTON MARKET, JANUARY 11.—The de-
mand from the trade has b en very moderate, but the

tors, who have taken, during the week, 22,500 bales of Ameri-
can, 500 Surat, and 500 Pernams. The prices to-day are much
on a par with those of Friday last, a fluctuation of Is. Bd.
per lb. having occurred, as the influence prevailed upon the
demand from speculators. Little is doing to-day, the sales
being 2 000 bags of all kinds ; the market fl-it.

letters from Demerara, Oporto, and Antigua ; Calcutta, 12th
August and 13th July ; Mauritius, 6th November; and St.
Helena, 14th November.—( Old de,tes )
The Gazette of Madrid publishes the following decree,
which is of great importance in respect to the Spanish rela-
tions with France:—
" Her Majesty the Queen Regent wishing to put a stop to
the extraordinary smuggling which at present prevails in
cattle on the frontiers of France, to the detriment of the na-
tional industry, revenue, and the public treasury ; and, consi
dering that the cause arises from the excessive duty for their
entrance into Spain, her Majesty is resolved that a reduction
of the duty shall take place according to the tariff hereafter."
HAMBURG, JAN. 4.—Mails are still due.

We are rather in a dull state in theHALF

No further arrivals or any news to communicate.
Letters from Berlin, of the 3d January, confirms the move-
ment of the three corps of the Prussian army, probably with
the view to concentrate a corps of Observation. This measure,
it is stated, is justified by the affairs of Belgium, as well as by
the French movement of numerous bodies of troops that have
marched from Verdun and Chalons.

_URRAN'S DESCRIPTION OF A SPEECH MADE
By SERGEANT HEwITT.--The Learned Sergeant's speech
put me cxactly in mind of a famil ar utensil in domestic use,
commonly called an extinguisher:—it began at a point,
and on it went, widening and widening, until at last it fairly
put the question out altogether.
MR. CROSSET PELHVAI.--There is little doubt
that this gentleman, who was Member for the county of
Salop, died last August at the Mauritius.

Chamber of Deputies on Wednesday, a summary of
which will be found in another column. Contrary to
general expectation, the death of the Duchess of
WURTEMBERG had neither arrested the attacks of the
Opposition, nor mollified the personal asperity of the
Ministerial party. Criminations and recriminations
were bandied about in a spirit of individual animosity
for which it would be hard to find a precedent in the
annals of Parliamentary warfare. Before the close of
the sitting the Chamber more resembled a bear-garden
than a legislative assembly. The grand trial, how-
ever, was reserved for Thursday, when it was ex-
pected that a division would take place on the Minis-
terial Amendment upon the first paragraph of
the address, which would decide the fate of the
Cabinet. Respect for the personal feelings of the
KING,- afflicted by the loss of his favourite daughter,
would, it was presumed, operate favourably for Minis-
ters upon a division. The Ministers were perfectly
aware of this, and determined to turn an event likely
to influence the vote of the Chamber to the best ad-
vantage, by accelerating a crisis which, under ordinary
circumstances, they would have strained their whole
influence to retard as long as possible.
There is no news of the slightest interest in the Paris
Journals. The lamented death of the Duchess of
WURTEMBURG, and the debate in the Chamber of
Deputies, are the only subjects which find a prominent
place in Thursday's Papers.
