The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday w)0 bales, In-
cluding 2,000 on speculation, in some instances avance of %d.
per lb. Shares were not so good.
In the recent sales of wool, there were one I items worth
notice. The new commercial regulations of ouenment are in
truth working wonders. There has been recevsh beef and
pork, sent here ffout distances varying from 3,0(000 miles, and
oysters alive, ditto. From the extremity of the sitinent ofNew
Holland do we now obtain wool and tallad now have
we Amenca—the Southern States of Sepublic—com-
petltors in wools. Somewhere about 70es of United
States wool have just been put np to pauction in the
City, some of them merinos, or at least so dealt, but very few
were sold. A few samples marked "Actual Ustates Merino, '
(a regular Yankee must have dictated the deon of the fleece)
sold at Is. 3d to Is. sd. per lb., and 238 bales oed States merino
wools, ex Frances Ann, from Boston, were r taken at from
Is. Id. to Is. 7%d. per lb. What will trade accom-

bare prospect of the adoption of the great prii tends to supply
our markets now with the rich and varied proof all climes, and
what would have been, to the last generatioraa inconceivable
short space of time.
A single paper, of February 12, from Newk, brought by the
Switzerland, Captain Knight, arrived off Doves been received at
the North and South American CoMe-hoiand conveys the
important, but certainly by no means unexpei information of the
House of Representatives having passed a 'for giving a year's
notice to Great Britain that the joint occicy of Oregon shall
cease. The House, however, afraid perhaps the President has
gone too far, resolves that negotiation may Intinued. Respect-
ing the revolution in Yucatan there are no veutheutic details.

THE SUN' EXPRESS.

SUNDZEILAWD, FEL 28.—The Sun today has outdone all
its Contemporaries, at least with reference to this place. A
small parcel of the morning edition, containing a full report
of the debate up to twenty minutes past three o'clock the
same morning, and the result of the grand struggle betwc en
monopoly and freedom, was received by Mr. Williams, news-
agent, at twenty minutes to five o'clock—three hours and
forty minutes before any other morning paper arrived. Circulars
had been received by some of the news-rooms and other
parties from one of the principal newspaper agents in the
City, stating that parcels from him by express would arrive
at Sunderland at half-past four or six o'clock ; but, from
some rause or other, The Sun parcel by express, direct from
the office, was the only one which arrived. Copies were for-
warde., to the news-rooms, and one to the mayor; and the
intelligence of the great victory soon spread through the
borough, and appeared to give pleasure to all—even the old
Tory shipowners seemed to brighten up, with the prospect
of extended exports and imports, and consequent better
freights. All parties acknowledge the greatest obligation is
due to The Sun for the spirit and success of its efforts on
this important occasion.
(From the Somerset founty Herald.)
We are indebted to the proprietor of The Sun for an ex-
press edition of his paper containing the division on the long-
protracted debate on the Government measure.
