a downward appearance ; but on the arrival of the President's Message

American steamer would in the end be amicably settled, the market
became revived, and Consols closed at 91 Fi 92 for the Account—opened

HALF--PAST ORE O'CLOCK.

Great anxiety is felt in the city for the arrival of the New York
Packet of the 10th ult., to ascertain the state of affairs with the Presi-
dent since the last Message to the House of Representatives, in which he
demands some kind of amende honorable of the British Government for
the late attack on the American steamer. The prevailing opinion is
that the President is not justified in his demand. Navy Island
is British property, and the American citizens have no right
to assist the rebels there, who have taken unlawful possession of it.
Up to the present hour we do net hear of any arrivals from the
United States; the wind being contrary, we fear, it will be some days
before the packet makes the British coast.
Consols continue rather heavy at 91A for the Account ; Exche-
quer Bills, 57 58 56 ; India Bonds, 14 16, to be paid off; Bank Stock,
205; ; India, 2631 264.
In the Foreign Market little doing. Spanish Active, 19 ; Brazil

Brighton Shares not so good, owing to a report that the Queen is
going to build a Palace between Ramsgate and Walmer.
