(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
ARRIVAL OF LORD CLARENDON.
DUBLIN, SUNDAY EVENING.—His Excellency the
Lord-Lieutenant and suite arrived in Dublin last
night from England.
The decisive majority in favour of the Government
proposition of a rate in aid has given great satisfac-
tion to the opponents of the incona:;-tax. It is be-
lieved here that the measure has now a fair chance of
passing through the House of Lords.
The weather seems to hare taken up. The wind
has gone round to the west, and the air is now mild
and genial.
Cholera continues to subside in the south, the list
reports being very favourable.

GOOJERAT.—An admirable slietch has just been
published by Mr. Wylde, of the action at Goojerat,
in which the extraordinary numerical disproportion
of troops between the armies of his Excellency Lord
Gough, and of the Raja and the Sirdar, is ren-
dered particularly conspicuous. The plan affords at one
glance an excellent idea of the situation of the belli-
gerents, and of the movements which conduced to a
victory.

The ,ak Cui.teri at z:a,;.iii:tiay were
estimated at from 4,1100 to 5,000 bales, of which 1,000
were for export, including 4,000 American at,d 150
Murat, the latter at aid. to 31d. per lb. The market
closed with more steadiness. Railway Shares continued
without alteration.

The Corn trade is heavy in Mark-lane this morning.
Foreign Wheat is called is. lower.

At Birmingham, a fiat has been opened against a
bankrupt named Ellis, whose liabilities are said to
amount to 100,0001. In this case it will be sought to
involve other persons as partners in the bankrupt's
transactions, and summonses have been issued for their
attendance, in order to their examination. The party
was a salt manufacturer at Droitwich.

There are no ship arrivals to-day with news of any
interest from the colonies, or distant parts.

The Dutch advices of the 21st instant state that the
Central German Government has called for the Lim-
burg Contingent to March into Holstein. This, it is
said, places the King of Holland in a very disagreeable
position, and will probably occasion remonstrances. The
Funds at Atnaterdam were very quiet, but steady.
Spanish Bonds were in request, but a shade lower.
M. A. L. Gillis, formerly a banker at Courtrai, had
surrendered to take his trial for, alleged fradulent in-
solvency.
The Hamburgh mail brings late intelligence from
Denmark, &c.; but as far as we learn, the private letters
afford no more certain information than the papers. A few
skirmishes had taken place, but with very little result.
The Holstein troops were hourly expecting orders to
march into Jutland, and the people of that province had
sent an address to the Government at Copenhagen, en-
couraging it to persevere, and to be in no way solicitous
about Jutland, which, even if temporarily occu-
pied, would take care to do its duty, and
to bear any necessary sacrifices for the common
good of the country. Notwithstanding the belligerent
aspect of affairs, the negotiations for peace were said to
be still carried on, and the neutral Consuls at Elsinore
had been instructed by the Danish authorities that the
ships lying there, with cargo, might be ordered to pro-
ceed at once to their place of destination. Trade at all
the Baltic ports was completely crippled for the time.
At Dantaic English ships were taken up, on the 17th
instant, at 59.it0 ss. 4d. per quarter for Wheat. The
rate of exchange at Hamburgh, last Friday, was 13.4
on Vndon, and the price of gold 437. Rather more
was doing in bills, and they were in request on
London. Money was easy, and stocks and shares were
buoyant. At Riga, on the 14th inst., the exchange on
London was 36i for three months' paper; and at Copen-
hagen on the 17th drafts at sight on Hamburgh were
quoted 200.
A most favourable report is forwarded to us upon the
subject of the forthcoming Leipzic Fair. Many home
and foreign buyers had already arrived on the 16th inst.,
and there were expected to be large purchases for Ame-
rican account. Cloths and Saxon textile fabrics were
sought for, and a larger number of buyers were present
from Moldavia and Wallachia. In fact, a large general
business was anticipated, and the only fear was that the
supply of goods would not be adequate to the demand.
This tallies exactly with what is communicated to us in
letters from Elberfeld and other places where great
activity prevails in the silk and other branches.
'ln the Frankfort Assembly there bas been some very
warm discussion upon the propriety of issuing letters
of marque against the Danes, but the danger of such a
course appeared to be felt, and so have due weight.;
The amount taken out on Saturday, by the steamer
America, from Liverpool to New York, was under
200,0001., of which it is said that Messrs. Baring sent
50,0001., and Messrs. Brown 50,0001., the rest aging in
smaller parcels from other houses.
Although the statements respecting the issue of the
Eastern Counties Railway inquiry are conflicting, and it
is understood that there is a difference of opinion among
the committee themselves as to whether the payment of
a dividend should be temporarily suspended, or made in
part only, we have heard this morning that the majority
are against any present payment. Great exertions will
be needed to get out the report by the day promised,
viz., Thursday next, the committee having sat until
early yesterday (Sunday) morning, and being in atten-
dance again to day.
The gloomy state of the weather, apart from foreign
news, is almost sufficient to depress the Stock Market,
but there is nothing to apprehend from the expor-
tation of one or two millions in bullion, since
we are receiving specie from various other
quarters. Consols have ranged from 91- to 92i,
for Transfer, and from 92 to 92* for Account. The
New Three-and-a• Quarter per Cents. have been
91* to 91i, and the Three per Cents. 90i to t.
Bank Stock is dull at 192, and India Stock at
245. Exchequer-bills have been 455. to 485., and
India Bonds 695. to 71s. premium. There
is some little talk concerning the probable fate
of the • Navigation Bill in the House of Lords,
and among the on dit is one that the Minis-
ters in the event of a defeat will appeal to the
country. Another version is that Lord John Russell
desires to retire, and that Sir Robert Peel may head, by
special request, a coalition Cabinet. We give the
statements simply for what they may be worth, and to
show the increasing interest felt in the matter.
In the Foreign Market the feature is a further rally
in Spanish Bonds, the speculators having taken a fancy
to them. They are now 331 to for the Three per
Cents., and 18 to f for the Five per Cents., a rise of
to 1 per cent. Portuguese Four per Cents. have been
marked 28* to 29, and Brazilian Old Bonds, 80. Mex-
ican Stock is firm at 30* with the coupons; but Peruvian
has been at a decline to 64i to 66. Equador are at 4.
Dutch Two•and-a-Half per Cents. are nominally 50
to 51.

The Railway Share Market is very inactive, and
prices have varied but little, though apparently flatter.
