(From The Sun of Last Night. )
The following is an extract of a letter received at the North
and South American Coffee-house,dated New York, Aug. 14.
" We have authentic intelligence from Washington, on which
we safely predict the veto of the President to the Bill which
has passed- both Houses of Congress, for the establishment of a
National Bank, with branches in the several States. We place
so much reliance on the high character of our informant, that
we feel no. hesitation in saying that no Bank Bill will become
alaw this Session. That several ptiu-r measures which have
been looked for with great aniiety. will share the same fate,
and that a breaking up of the Harrison Tyler Cabinet will be
th.a cliMax of the extra Session, From which the hig party,
expepOdao much. • The Van Buren or democratic party are
.

in high spirits, and confidently anticipate a resumption by their
lea,ting of the reins of power at no distant day.
LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 28.—We have
had an inactive Cotton Market to-day. Tho sales to the
trade amount to about 3,000 bales in export or speculation.
Nothing to report. Prices are steady.
LIVERPOOL SNARL" MARKET, AUG. 28.—The following

change : —Great Western Half Shares, 55; London and Bir-
mingham 321. Shares, 524 ; Manchester and Leeds, 56i ; Mid-

Account. Exchequer Bills, 15 17 prom, ; Spanish Active

Quebec papers to the 12th inst., and Montreal to the same
date, hare been received ; at the latter place some heavy trans-
actions had taken place in flour; and prices were advancing.
Exchange on London, 91-.
The advises from Madrid received this morning state that
the Ministry was on the point of obtaining the advance of €0
mi.lions of reals. _ _ _

The rrivate letters received this morning from New York
and Philadelphia respecting commercial affairs, are much more
favourable.

The English Stock Market continues exceeding firm, with
a further tendency to advance.

The arrival of IMr. Jaudon in this country has caused a qui
vice among the jobbers and loan fry, who have succeeded al-
ready in draining the pockets of John Bull of so much of his
surplus cash, in exchange for the trashy Bonds and Shares of
American bubbles, large and small. We not pretend to say that
Mr. Jaudon really wants more money for the rotten institution
he represents as agent, but we know that many parties her e
would attempt to get it for him, if he did. We have had
enough of State securities.
The landlords, it seems, know something of the Corn rig,
as well as the speculators, for they art bringing to Market a
glut of damp and inferior Wheat so as to establish a much
lower range of prices, and prevent a decline in the duty on
foreign, since, while these samples are called at 6s. to Bs.
lower, old parcels are but 2s. cheaper, and it is these latter
parcels only, as being sound grain, which can give a fair cri-
terion for the averages.
