LISBON, SEPT. 20.—General Macdonell was tried on
the 14 instant, in a summary manner, before the British
Judge Conservator, and fully acquitted of all charges
of a political nature. He was, however, found guilty of
an infraction of the police regulations in having entered
the country without a passport, and was accordingly
sentenced to expulsion, eight days being allowed him to
make his arrangements for departure. The sentence was
that he should meanwhile continue in confinement ; but
bail having been tendered by a British merchant, and
accepted by the Judge, he was instantly set at liberty.
I am sorry to add that his health has been very much
affected by the incarceration he underwent, and that

AMERICAN NEWS.
UNITED STATES.
LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY.
The New York packet ship Cambridge, Capt.
13ursley, arrived here to-day, having left that
city on the Ist inst. By this opportunity we
have received all the New York papers of the
Ist inst., but do not find in them any news of po-
litical interest to the readers on this side of the
Atlantic. The usual report of the Money Market
and assummary of the commercial news, will be
foUnd below.
XIONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS.
TUESDAY, AUG. 31.—A fair amount of business was
done at the Stock board this morning, at generally bet-
ter prices. U. S. Bank improved per cent ; Delaware
and Hudson, 4 ; Harlem, ; Patterson, ; Mohawk
declined 4. Sales of Bills on Philadelphia, 24 a 24 ;
Mobile, 8 a 81 ; Illinois Six per Cent. Stock, 1870, 55 ;
New York Five per Cent., 1858, 864. There is a good
business doing in sterling bills.
The transfer of the public funds 'from the Merchants'
Bank to the Bank of Commerce, appears to have given
us great general dissatisfaction as the selection of the
Merchants' Bank met with approval. The manner of the
operation was such as justly to condemn the Secretary
of the Treasury for a financier, and is in the highest
de-
gree discreditable to the Federal Government. Instead
of coming into the market on fair and above-board terms
the issue of jr1.000,000 is made in an underhand wav to
the Bank of Commerce, which concern takes through
James G. King, who made the negotiations en condition
that that institution should have the Government depo-
sites. Here is a direct alliance and contract between the
Federal Government and a " Wild Cat Bank." Instead
of standing on its own credit and resources, the Govern-
ment bribes an agency of the foreign houses to take its.
stock at a certain rate ; or, in other words, it sells the
custody of the public funds to a clique of brokers for a
consideration. The contract is, that if these brokers
take the public loan at a certain rate, they shall have the
public deposits. The Gov'ernment thereby relinquish
all right to remove them, as long; as the institution fulfils
its part of the bargain. The Sub-Treasury has been re-
Fealed scarcely thirty days, and already the Treasury
Department has lost its independence. It is bound to the
same set of men that have plunged New York head and
ears in debt—so much so, that the Commissioners have
advertised for a loan that they cannot obtain, and then
t:ley go round " cap in hand," begging company loans of
the banks. If the next Secretary of the Treasury is per-
mitted to go on, six months will not elapse before the.
general Government will be in the same condition. The
present Cabinet are not of President Tyler's choice—the
extra session was not only not of his calling, but is against
his avowed approbation. Its whole proceedings, and
‘rith the exception of the bankrupt law, all the measures
before it, he is opposedito. lie took things as he found
them at tthe death of the late President, and has thus
far endured both the session and the Cabinet ' • and they
have verified the old adage, " put a beggar on horseback.'
Inc. With the breaking up of the session, and the dis-
:.Aution of the Cabinet, the President will organize a
now one, more in accordance with the spirit and wants
of the people ; and the miserable suistake of the present
officers will be rectified.

COTTON TRADE.
The market has been very heavy since the arrival of
the last packet. The whole decline may be put at cent.
in this city. In the Southern markets, there is, as is
usually the case at this season of the year, but little
doing. The accounts of the growing crops are contra-
dictory, but there is nothing to lead to the conclusion
that the yield will be otherwise than large.
As we have remarked on a former occasion, the weight
of bales this year is larger than that of last year.
Conti-TRADE.--:Flour in this market ranges from
$3,50 to $6,75 a barrel. In the last day or two the de-
mand has decreased, and the supplies increased a little.
This year's crop in New York will reach an average
or say a little short. And the accounts from Virginia,
; though somewhat conflicting, still we think there will
he an average crop. Pennsylvania will also give an
average yield. In the northern part of Ohio the crop
will be good, but falls short of an average in the
southern. In the aggregate, however, there will be more
than an average. The crops of the upper lake country:
turned out decidedly good. Whence, and from preiious
s:atements published by us, it appears that there is a
favourable prospect for an average crop in 1841.
Comparing these statements, it is to be seen that only
a material difference exists between prospects in 1840
and 1841, and as it is against thiS year, there is a pro-
bability, as we stated on the start, that ptices this year'
may be a fraction higher than they were last ; and
they can only be a fraction higher from the demand
which may come from England. It is, therefore not un-
reasonable to expect that the prices this fall will range
from ,05 to $6 a barrel.
