road. According to our usual prudence we have again ap-
pof this kind had reached it. We
t noof newsthe company, and the secretary has
declared
sincerely hope that this contradiction may not have the fate
ied at ttlo' e
us officetha
of that which was given a week ago."

The Duke D'AUMALE, who passed through Aix on
Saturday, and received the troops in garrison there,
has arrived in Paris.

Accounts have been received from Algiers to the
9th. The refractory tribes in the province of Con-
stantina have all submitted and pail up their contri-
butions, and five Arabs who were concerned in
attacking a convoy of wounded soldiers have been
delivered up to the French authorities.

The Courrier de la Gironde gives the following account
of the state of the crops in that district :—" The wheat
harvest has nearly terminated throughout all the depart-
ment, and in many places advantage is being taken of the
fine weather to thrash the corn. This operation but too fully
confirms the fears entertained that the hot weather of the
early part of June would affect the quantity of the crop. The
potatoes looked fine at first, and held out favourable hopes,
by the
beans,
but at present there is reason to fear that the quantity will
not be great, but should this be the case it will be in some
measure
goodness of the quality.
The field vegetables,o
lentils, &e., have been
so muck; injured by the late dry weather that a very light
crop is expected. The vine has been highly favoured by the
weather of the last mouth, and the late rains have tended
ci npeaas be
ted
such forch
much to improve the swelling of the fruit; its vigorous
growth is a matter of astonishment even to those who daily
watch its progress. From the failure in the crop of certain
vineyards, and the havoc caused by the late storms, we may
however calculate that this year will be but a middling one
with regard to quantity, but there is every reason to hope
that the quality will be good. If the present weather con-
tinues, we may expect the vintage to commence in the early
part of September."

Madrid papers of the 11th have arrived.
The Heraldo has the following from Ceuta, dated
July 4 :

"The Emperor of Morocco has placed under the command
of the Governor of Tetuan the province of Anchors, which
joins our territory, and the other provinces near it, and has
separated it from the pachalic of Tangiers. For this purpose
a new Governor has been appuinted at Tetuan, and an alcalde
for the contiguous territory, who have paid a visit to the Spa-
nish General, and expressed their wish to preserve the good
harmony which at present exists between them. An officer,
with an escort of horsemen, and accompanied by an inter-
preter, has also paid a visit, and expressed, on the part of his
Excellency, the same pacific sentiments."

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool, yesterday, were 4,000 to
5,000 bales, at firm rates. Shares were much. the same. The
Stock Exchange is to be closed from Wednesday, the 29th
instant, to Monday, Aug. 3, owing to the visit of Prince
Albert; and the settling day for the end of the month, is
fixed for Aug. 3.
There appears still to be a good deal of uncertainty
respecting the cotton crop, and it is as much as a writer on
this side of the Atlantic can do to steer clear of error by con-
sulting conflicting authorities, and endeavouring to elicit
something tangible from the whole. In the accounts re-
ceived this week, we find various prognostications of short
crops, and among them the following, by a firm in one of the
southern states :

"These figures speak so conclusively for themselves,
that without entering into any elaborate argument,
they must tend to place the future prospects of the
planter in a more flattering light than we have been
enabled to represent them for some two or three years
past. The only circumstance that could materially
affect these expectations would be the recurrence of an over-
whelming crop, an event which the developments of the sea-
son thus far scarcely lead us to apprehend. On the contrary,
the accounts from various sections of the country induce us
to the opposite belief, inasmuch as the cold and rainy spring
has, in many portions of the cotton-growing regions, inflicted
such severe injury on the plant, that without venturing on
any estimates with regard to the yield, we may be permitted
to say that there is not much prospect of any great excess
next season."

Rather more favourable advices reach us from the German
wool fairs, and the sales were brisker.

supported at 261.
The dealings in the Foreign Investments have been limited
also, but, except Portuguese, they are generally supported at
the previous rates. Spanish Three per Cents. have been
361/x, and the Five per Cents., 2474 ; Portuguese Four per
Cents. are heavy at 44 to 45. The accounts from Lisbon
are considered to be unfavourable, and a good deal of diffi-
culty is anticipated in the collection of the revenue. Mexican
Stock has been at 27 to 2714.
The Share Market is still rather fluctuating, but appears
not to be very well supported.
