The sales of cotton at Liverpool, yesterday, were esti-
mated at 6,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were
e
taken for xport and on speculation. The market was
quiet but steady. The sales comprised 200 Pernam and
iaranham at fild, 50 Bahia at bid to bid, 300 Egyp-
lan at 71d to 10d, and 700 Surat at 3id to 41d per lb.
The Railway Market opened flatly, but closed steadily
at previous rates.
...In the Colonial markets this week, there have been
;Lan; sales as regards the principal staples, and prices have
fully maintained. Sugar has found a ready sale,
and coffee has been in request, with rather a limited
taIPPly. Holders of tallow have been firmer. Cotton
has been quiet. Tea has been in request, both as respects
o
k and green of the useful qualities. For indigo and
wool the demand has been brisk. Saltpetre has ad-
vanced.

SOUTHAMPTON, THURSDAY, FEB. 17.
By the Royal mail steamer Severn we have received
the subjoined particulars relative to the steam-ship Ade-
laide, belonging to the Australian Royal Mail Steam
Packet Company, which vessel left Plymouth on the
3d of January last, with the contract mails for Adelaide,
Port Philip, and Sydney. The letter, is dated St. Vin-
cent, Cape Verdes, Jan. 31 :
" After leaving Plymouth on the 3d inst., the Adelaide
encountered strong south-westerly winds and a head sea in
her course down Channel, and across the Bay of Biscay.
At half-past 3 o'clock in the morning of the 6th an alarm
of fire gave rise to considerable excitement and confusion on
board. The fore-saloon and cabins were suddenly filled with
smoke, which was found to proceed from the coal-bunkers
immediatelybeneath. The fire-engines being brought to bear
and a large quantity of water promptly poured down the
scuttle-holes, it was soon ascertained that no imminent
danger-holes,
was to be apprehended. The
.coals, however, con-
tinuing in a very heated, state, pumping was resumed at
brief intervals during three or four successive days, after
which the alarm gradually subsided. The accident was
stated to have originated in the unusual proximity of the
coal-bunkers to the boilers, which, combined with the
highly inflammable nature of the coal, rendered the liability
to spontaneous combustion ono of peculiar peril. On the
morning of the 17th, the Adelaide reached St. Vincent
(Cape Verdes), but, unfortunately, finding that the company
had neglected to provide any coals for her use (though
she was now one month over-due), had to wait the
arrival of fresh supplies from England, which were known
to be on the way. After a detention of eight days,
she obtained from the brig Llewellyn, which made St. Vin-
cent on the 25th, from Swansea, a small quantity of patent
fuel, wholly insufficient, however, .to meet her require-
ments. On the 28th the chance arrival of about 400 tons
of coal, by the barque Nile, from. Bristol, promised at
length a termination to this tedious suspense; but a dispute
as to price consumed much valuable time, and up to the
hour of the Se fern's departure, on the night of the 31st, it
was still a matter of comple'im uncertainty at what date the
delaide might get away; indeed her further detention
would probably .extend over another week at least, as she
had then barely 500 tons of fuel on board, being only one-
half of her necessary complement. Much indignation was
expressed by the passengers generally on account of the re-
peated
and vexatims delays to which they had been sub-
jected by the gross mismanagement and improvidence of the
eompany, and which were considered to admit of no ex-
cuse or palliation. Among the second-class passengers the
deepest dissatisfaction prevailed, and the complaints were
:loud and many with respect to the miserable incomplete-
ness of the domestic arrangements and economy of the
ship, and the utter want of system, discipline, and ade-
quate service, which entailed upon oue and all an amount
of discomfort and positive privation hardly to be credited.
One passenger quitted the ship in disgust at St. Vincent,
and returned to England by the Severn, and several others
declared that nothing short of the most urgent necessity
would have induced them to proceed. The sea-going qua-
lities of the Adelaide were spoken of as contrasting favour-
ably with the immethodical and unbusiness-like character
of the company's arrangements in caonexion with her,
which were cor sid.ered to reflect the greatest discredit upon
all parties concer—ed."
Our private advices by the Severn mention that the
Adelaide world probably get away from St Vincent on
the 4th inst. The delay of the Australian mails on this
occasion, and the general irregularity of the postal ser-
vice,
must inflict immense injury upon the mercantile
interest.

PERNAMBllCo.—lntelligenco had been received at
Pernambuco, from Paraiba, of the total loss of the
barque Sir Fowell Buxton, near Assu, with 240
emigrants on board, for Australia. A Brazilian
man-of-war and a vessel with provisions had been
dispatched by the Government to their assistance.
The English brig Richard, of 290 tons, had been
chartered to convey the passengers to Port Philip
for the sum of 3,2001., free of fitting berths and
finding provisions. No lives were lost.
The Princess Maria Amelia, step-sister to the
Queen of Portugal, and daughter of the Dowager
Empress of Brazils, died at Funchal, on the 4th
instant.

Milan has completely returned to order &ince the
late deplorable outbreak of the 6th. The inhabi-
tants, who had at first felt solaced by the pr oclama-
tion of Count Strasoldo, are now completely cowed
and in dismay at the edict of Field-Mars'hal Ra-
detzky, which levies an exorbitant amount of taxa-
tion on the capital of Lombardy. Count Giulay,
who left Milan for Florence two days pre' ious to
the riots, has returned to his post.
Things have come to such a pass in this part of
Italy, that the two extreme parties corribine in
making life insupportable to the, peaceably-dis-
posed portion of the inhabitants. The deputation
who purposed proceeding to Milan, to intercede
with Count Radetzky, in order to obtain a mitiga-
tion in the enormous taxation inflicted on Milan as
a punishment for the late attempt at insurrection,
have not been permitted to depart. Advantage
seems to have been taken of this outbreak for ob-
taining an enormous sum from the Milanese, who,
thoagh anti-Austrian in their hearts, had no part
in the disgraceful stabbing scenes of the 6th.
Three of the officers wounded on the 6th have
since died. An investigation has been institu'zed
with respect to the citizens who give alms, some
suspicions having arisen that a portion of this
money went to aliment the revolutionists. Theatres,
operas, and every species of public amugements,
have been stopped, and the stillness of the dead
has spread over the late gay capital of Lombardy.
The carnival has this year died an unnatural death,
the execution of eleven men coming in as the finale.
The provinces are quiet, and have remained undis-
turbed, and the outbreak of the 6th has remained
local, notwithstanding Signor Mazzini's promise to
be with the insurgents oh the morrow.
The proclamation of Kossuth is generally con-
sidered apocryphal.
The 9th has passed tranquilly at Rome.

SNOWSTORM IN THE NORTH. SHIELDS, THURSDAY,
MIDNIGHT.—There have been more heavy falls of snow
to-day, and one this morning with thunder and lightning.
The local railway lines are being drifted up, and the
coal lines stopped. The London mail-train reached
Newcastle drawn by six engines this forenoon. The
London express left this evening, for Edinburgh, at 20
minutes past 6 o'clock, drawn by two powerful engines.
The local trains have been stopped by snow-drifts. The
9 o'clock train from Newcastle has only just arrived.
Wind, north-east, with a heavy sea on the bar. A
large fleet is ready to leave the Tyne, none haying left

The London Government train arrived at 11.30 p.m.
THEATRICAL OPERATIVES' FUND.—The committee of
this society, established in 1844 by the scene-shifters of
the metropolitan theatres, to provide against the dis-
tress occasioned in their families by sickness and death,
have just appealed to the leading members of the theatri-
cal profession for assistance. The society allows to its
members, who are principally married men, in sickness
10s. per week, and on a wife's death 3/. 10s. ; the family
receiving 7/. 10s. in case of the death of a member him-
self, to provide for the necessary funeral expenses, &o.
SUICIDE OF A POLISH REFUGEE.—Yesterday Mr.
Baker received information of the following frightful case
of suicide at No. 9, Suffolk-street, Cambridge-heath-
road, Bethnal-green. The deceased's name was Herr
Von Fochlender, aged 40 : for some time past he had
been engaged as a teacher of longuages at the Crosby-
Hall Literary Institution, Bishopsgate-street, City, and
various places in the Metropolis. Latterly, his landlord
had observed a marked change in his manner, and fre-

he daily expected a large remittance of cash from his
property. On Tuesday afternoon last the deceased did
not leave home, as was his usual custom ; but, at half-
past five o'clock, while the landlady was sitting at tea,
she was alarmed by an explosion, and fearing something
had happened, she ran up stairs to the deceased's bed-
room, when on opening the door she discovered a fearful
sight. The deceased was lying on the bed, with the
back portion of his head completely blown to atoms, and
was weltering in a pool of blood. A pistol was lying by
his right side, which had been recently discharged, and
when the female called assistance the unfortunate man
was still breathing. Mr. Walsh, the surgeon, of Cam-
bridge-heath-road, and another medical gentleman, were
soon in attendance, but the deceased expired shortly after
their arrival.

MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

Since Monday, the arrivals of English wheat, coastwise
from Essex, Kent, &c., have been on a very moderate
scale, but in somewhat improved condition. Fresh up to-
day, receipts were small, and the show of samples of
both red and white was limited. Although the attendance
of buyers was by no means numerous, the demand for all
kinds of wheat of home produce was steady, at prices fully
equal to those of Monday last, and a good clearance was
effected. There was rather more doing for forward do-
livery, at extreme currencies.

The imports of foreign wheat are only 2,420 qr.arters,
almost wholly from the Continent. Most descriptions were
in fair request, and late rates were well supported. Float-
ing cargoes were held at very full prices.
The show of both English and foreign barley being
limited, the demand for all kinds was steady, and prices
were well supported in every instance.
Malt—the supply of which was good—moved off freely,
at extreme currencies.

beasts, the general quality of which was by no means first-
rate. All kinds were in steady request, and Monday's

request, at full prices.
Milch cows were a dull inqviry, at from 141 to 19/ each,
including their small calf.
