TUESDAY NIGIIT.

We find but little to remark on the state of this money
market. Money is abundant. Good paper has been taken
within a few da•,s at 61 to 7 per cent. per annum.
In regard to the general state of bu iness, we think
prospects for the Spring business are decidedly good.
At the present dull season of the year, little change either
for better or worse can take place. The last accounts
from Europe being of a pacific character, babe greatly con-
tributed to remove alarms s‘hich were felt by some on that
score, and the certainty of a fine harvest in England, and
consequent removal of the principal cause of the embar-
ra,sinents felt there, it is hoped may give activity to the
manufactuiing interest, and produce a rise in the present
depressed value of cotton in the English market.
In stocks there has not been much activity of tate, ex
cept in a few of the fancies. Delaware and Hudson is
rapidly rising and in demand. The time of the next divi-
dend is the 10th init. We annex quotations of stocks:—

There has been a brisk demand for European Exchanges,
and rates have advanced. The cause of this increased de-
mand is no doubt to be attributed to the remittances
making by States and Companies to pay the interest on
their loans falling due on the Ist of January. We quote:—
London, 1081 to 1081 Paris, 5 171 to 5 181
Amsterdam, 401 to 401 Hamburgh, 361
Bremen, 77 3-5 to 781
The British Queen steam-ship, which leaves here to-
morrow, will take out about $400,000 dollars in silver.
The whole amount in specie taken out by the packets to-
morrow will be about $600,000. There is no change in
the value of specie since our quotations of Saturday, but
the rates will no doubt fall after to-morrow.
Domestic exchanges are to-day rather inactive, though
of late there has been a great deal doing in them.

The Paris Journals of Saturday have all been
received, but those of Sunday are still in arrear.
The Moniteur of Saturday contains the following
official contradiction of a statement which, rather
unluckily for the Times, forms the subject of a
leading article in its columns of this morning :
" Several of the French Journals having announced, on
the faith of letters from Constantinople, that the Divan
had rrj'•cted the proposition for revoking the deposition of
Afehe.ret Ali, and appointed another Paclr, of Egypt in
his place, neither the French nor the English Government
has received any such news. At the date of the accounts
upon which the above report is founded, the Divan was not
only ignorant of the convention concluded between Com-
modore Napier and Mehemet Ali, but even of the pro-
positions which were to be made to him, in the name of
the Four Powers, by Admiral Stopford. This report,
therefore, is destitute of authenticity ; and it cannot be
doul.ted that, if there were any hesitation at Constanti-
nople, the Four Powers would induce the Porte to grant
to Mehemet Ali what they have offered to him. It is be-
sides false that a Pacha of Egypt has been appointed.
;net Mehemet, Commander-in-Chief of the Turkish
Army in Syria, and provisional Governor of Egypt, having
been named Pacha of Adrianople, Zokeria Paella has its
placed him, but with the same title of Commander of the
Army and Provisional Governor."
We ourselves contradicted on Saturday last the
report of the rejection by the Divan of the proposal
of the Four Powers to restore to MEHEMET _ALI
the hereditary Government of Egypt.
The Evening Goverinnent organ, the Messager,
has likewise the following observations on the
statements of the Commerce and the National that
the Government had ordered the suspension of the
works for fortifying Paris :
Several journals announced that the works of the for-
tifications arc suspended. This assertion is unfounded.
The Government has come to a resolution to centralise all
that is connected with the fortifications at the Ministry of
War, and it is in this sense that the Bill upon this subject
has been presented. The Ministry of Public Works has,
therefore, had to transfer to the Ministry of War the por-
tion of the works which had been attributed to it ; but the
works have not, on that account, been suspended, and
orders have been given by the Minister of War to continue
them on ell points."

The Journal des Debuts complains with grea
asperity of the tone recently adopted by the Eng.
li3ll journals towards the war party in France. As
the Journal des Debuts has hitherto ably supported
the peace policy of the SOULT-GUIZOT Cabinet,
we quote the greater part of this article for the
purpose of making a few plain, and, we trust, not
offensive remarks upon it :
" When we are told that there exist among us certain
incorrigible parties, acting on old instincts, old passions,
and old crimes, which await but an external complication
to raise whirlwinds to which our laws, society, and civiliza-
tion would be the fist victims, we cannot deny that there
is at bottom an unfortunate and fatal truth. We consent
to say so ourselves, because the matter concerns us, but
we do not like others to say so, because it does not con-
cern them. When we are told that the real mission of France
is to improve her agricultural system and the breed of her
horses, or that our money would be much better employed
or. the docks of Havre than on the port of Dunkirk, we
are assuredly much touched by the interest thus tending to
make us so many Cincinnatuses ; but we do not like
courses of agriculture in English ; and with respect to
our money, we prefer spending it unnecessarily in our own
way to employing it advantageously through the advice of
others
" When we see the English journals, because it pleased
a Minister of the Administration of the Ist of March to
make known his undigested reveries respecting the Bale-
aric islands, accuse us of usurping territories, we allow
ourselves to consider such a charge as rather strange on
the part of those who have property of others in every part
of the globe.
" And, moreover, when we hear them say that the Mi-
nisters of the Ist of March, whom certainly we do not
like, and to whom we show that we do not, have deserved
a rope from Europe and the guillotine from their fellow-
citizens, we feel ashamed and huniilated by this rude
assistance, ssbich we reject; and we inquire what right
others have to place their foot on men who belong but to
the justice of this country ? It was a fatal day when
these men represented the country ; but if they have re-
presented the country amiss, it is our business, and not
yours ; it is we, and not you, who bear and pay the
penalty.
When we see the memory of Lord Holland abar.doned
to the hatred of his fellow.citizens, and his remains scarcely
illuminate, to the scurrility of the press, because he is sus-
pected of having loved France, we ask ourselves what, in
fine, are the real sentiments of the people which still terms
itself cur all), and with whom it is a crime not to curse us.
" Iu truth, we thought that the English journals would
have known better how to support what they call their
victory ; but it acts on their brain as if they were unaccus-
tomed to such things. They cannot even preserve that re
serve arid dignity which are so easy for those who have suc-
ceeded, and so painful for those who have failed; they en-
joy their success as upstarts enjoy their fortune, with inso-
lence, prodigality, and bad taste.
" Al; I we prefer stopping here and being silent to an-
swering by useless words, since the time is not come to
convert them into acts. Let us tell thorn merely that con-
quering toasts are not lost—that every blow tells, and may
make wounds that will bleed long if they wish it to be
so—that those who still preserve in their hearts regret for
an alliance so deplorably broken off, may feel that regret
stilled and dinnieished daily, and may also feel that of all
resentments, the one which augments the most and forgets
the least is the resentment of the vanquished. Madmen
that they are not to think that nations heap together, in
silence, anger upon anger l"
We highly approve of the zeal with which our
respected Parisian Contemporary seeks to impress
upon us the danger of intermeddling with the inte-
rior state of public opinion in France. But the
Debut, chooses to.forget that we deal not with French
politics or French parties as they relate exclusively
to France, but as they concern the fate of Europe.
It is not because M. TRIERS and his supporters are
Frenchmen that we cast odium upon their policy,
but because were they to obtain the ascendancy in
the councils of the KING an European war, in
which we would be unavoidably involved, would be
the consequence. Neither is it at all from a spirit
of busybodyism, as the Debuts inclines to think,
that we point out to Frenchmen how they might
better employ their money than in building for-
tresses and preparing naval armaments, but from a
mingled feeling of apprehension for the general
peace endangered by such armaments, and from an
honest desire to see France more prosperous, and
necessarily more interested in cultivating amicably
relations with her neighbours. France is not one
