THE SUN, LONDON,

ambition, and a mad desire to ingratiate himself with
despotic Po;,ers, is folioving a line of pollcy much
disliked by his people, and probably destined to bring
about a more decided revolution than that which
placed him on the Throne.

The whole of the Paris Journals of Thursday have
been received. All the news they contain will be found,
by a reference to our extracts from them, in another
column.

The news from Persia, contained in a letter from
Constantinople, which appears in another column, is
highly important, but requires confirmation. If
Russia has really triumphed in Persia, we may prepare
for hot work in the East.

MONEY AND COMYIERCIAL NE WS

CITY (THIS DAY), TWELVE O'CLOCK
Arrivals this morning—French mail ; no ship letters re-
ceived.

We have no arrivals this morning of-the least consequence,
with the exception of the French mail and express Irma Paris.
The latter brings a document of some importance—the Queen
of Spain's Speech at the opening of the Cortes.
Within these few days large shipments of British manufac-
tured goods have been made to the United States. The
packet-ship Garrick, of the 25th ult., is daily expected from
New York : also an overland express from India, which it is
expected will bring some intelligence of importance from that
quarter.
LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, Nov. 16.—The transactions
of the week are extensive, and in Brazil more than usual has
been done, the trade having bought freely at to 4 advance.
Egyptian is fully 4 per lb dearer, and the Sea Islands at aucti.ui
have gone off at rather better prices. In American descri-
tions we do not make any change, but only full prices are
being obtained for them, as well as Surats. The sales of the
day are 9,000 bags of all kinds, and a steady market. Spe-
culators have taken 3,700 bales of American, 1,300 Maran-
hams, and 250 Pernambuco ; and exporters 1,500 bales of
American.

The rates of the Foreign Exchanges, in the course of yes-
terda:, were—pi Paris the sane. aid the Northern Ex-
changes a shade lower, than on Tuesday. Money in the
City continues plentiful with the Bankers, and Bill-brokers;

easy rate. Bills, 21 per Cent. ; other descriptions from 3to
5 per Cent.

HORSE-DEALERS.—A horse-dealer is the sarneall
over the world, from the bogs of Ireland to the deserts of
Arabia. I will merely mention, en passant, one instance of
knowledge of his craft in an Arab horse-dealer. A friend of
mine, in India, had a very old horse, which he exchanged for
one out of a lot, giving a handsome difference. Adly or two
after I happened to be examining the horses which had lately
arrived, immediately recognised my friend Bottle, and merely
remarked "he must be a very old horse." The dealer was
quite indignant, swore that be was not only a Nedjee (the
most ancient and purest breed of horses in Arabia), but one of
very high caste, and, moreover, only rising six, in confirma-
tion of which be requested me to examine his mouth, when,
to my utter astonishment, I found his teeth had b-en filed

• THE ALBION AND THE LORD MAYOR.-The
Comet of Guernsey contains, under the head " shameful treat-
ment to the crew of the Albion, by the Lord Mayor of the
city of London l" a complaint (how ill or well founded we
know not) that the wrecked crew of the unfortunate barque
the Albion, when they made their case known to tl,e Lord
Mayor, his Lordship did not himself see the claimants on his
commiseration, but an order was given to find them s lodging,
when they were taken to " a jail among a large number of the
dregs of society, there to be fed on gruel and barley bread!"
The Comet further states that " the mate, (a very respectable
man), who was one of the number, asked on the following

yesterday 2 in Wapping, on the
bodyAn inquest
of youth,es a
whoses held
iwdelath was occasioned by the falling of
an iron crane attached to Leith and Berwick wharf. The only
remarkable feature in the case was, that the proprietor of the
wharf and one of his clerks were ernpannelled on the jury,
and that the former was also examined as a witness by the Co-
roner, although it was proved that the crane had come down
before, but no accident had then occurred. Verdiet—"
dental death."

At Guildhall yesterday a man was charged before
Sir Chapman Marshall with having discontinued an allowance
of 4s. a week, which he had for some time made to his wife,
who lived apart from him. The man said she was a perfect
fury, and anything but well conducted, but he would allow
her 2s. a week, which he thought enough, as she was young
and able to work. " You may keep your paltry 25.," cried
the wife, " but I will be after you every night. I will be
with yog at your singing-rooms and suppers, your raffles and
dances. I will stick to you, you and she bounced
out of the room. The husband eyed her out of the door,
began to weep, and begged for protection. Sir Chapman
said he could best protect himself by paying the 45., and dis-
missed the case,
