CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

LIVERPOOL CoartroN MARKET, MARCH 12.—The business
done this wea is large, amounting to 36,570 bags, of which
spem'ators have taken 7,sool.alcsoeAmerican and 3,000 Surat,
and exporters 100 bales of American and .50 Surat ; the rest
to the trade. The accounts from America received here on
Sunday last being of a more hostile nature, caused considerable
excitement on Monday, inducing many of our holders either to
withdraw their Cotton, or become indifferent as to effecting
sale?, and cawing a more general disposition to purchase on
speculation than the state of the trade warranted. The prices
of American of ordinary to fair quality ar.e 14 higher than Fri-
day last ; other qualities barely IA ; and Surats are somewhat
dearer ; other descriptions without any change. The sales to-
day are about 4,000 baits of all kinds, and a quieter market.

We have received Jamaica papers to the 2d February at the

A West India mail has arrived this'morning, brought by her
Majesty's packet Hope, sailed from St. Thomas's Feb. 4 ;
Cape Henri, Feb. 9 ; she brings a freight of 70,000 dollars.
On the 28 h December, his Excellency Sir Henry M‘Leod
opened the combined Court at British Guiana, with the fol-
lowing speech
" Gentlemen,—ln my short address to tho.,Court of Policy,
on the occasion of my being sworn into the office of Gov. rnor,
1 acquainted you with the particu'ar service on which I had
been commissioned by her 11Iajesty. In furtherance of that
duty I am now prepared to bring into the Court of Policy,
and therefore submit for your consent, an ordinance fur the
purpose of settling a Civil List on the Crown. Upon the pro-
isions of that ordinance I have reason to believe that,
there will be 1 tile, if any, difference of opinion ; fur I
think it will be smn that although I have placed
the salaries somewhat below what were originally proposed, I
have not overlooked the interest of the public officers. Be-
fore we proceed to the cons'deration of the Civil List which
protierly belongs to the Supplies of 1841, I propose that you
should first dispose of the Estimate of 1840, and provide in
the regular manner for the means to meet the expendi-
ture of this year. For that purpose, and in order that no
further loss may be sustained by the Colonial Treasury, it
might be desirable, and I shall have no objection first of
all to introduce an ordinance reviving and continuing the
Tax Bill of 1839 for the years 1840 and 1841

We are informed that the final settlement of the Eastern
question was signed here cn Thursday evening last, as amended
by M. Guizot and the Plenipotentiaries of the Posers. France
is among the number.
