The National says :—" According to a letter from
Oran, a new expedition is contemplated, not against
Morocco, but in Morocco. On this occasion we are
to pursue ABD-EL-KADER with the permission of the
EMPEROR, disperse his Deira, and chastise the tribes
who have acted in hostility to France. Such
a plan does not astonish us. It is consistent
with the habits of a Government which lives
from day to day, and which ever prefers half to
decisive measures, and only draws the sword to
assist petty Parliamentary intrigues. War in Mo-
rocco, conducted by similar agents, will produce no re-
sult, but it will continue perhaps several months, and
during that time the political question will sleep.
This will be so much gained, and the morrow will be
forgotten. We have no doubt but that war at this
moment would be to the taste of every one except to
the country. M. 13ucEaup desires it warmly, be-
cause it is his principal and only affair in Algeria,
and, moreover, the perspective of a new Islay has some-
thing seductive. The Ministry wish for it, because dur-
ing hostilities they are certain of the generous silence of
their adversaries, and, besides, they justly count on the
bravery and superiority of our army. On her side
England encourages us still to fight. She knows
that a simple point in Morocco can have no serious
consequence, that her trade with the coast will not
suffer, and that her influence in that empire will not
be diminished. The London Cabinet will, therefore,
permit matters to take their course, and our Minis-
ters will return thanks for the apparent generosity."
Baron HALLEY CLAPARFDE, the Conservative can-
didate, was re-elected Deputy at Schlestadt, by 304
votes out of 3'20 voters.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

In the Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday the
sales were 10,000 bales, including 2,000 American on
speculation, and 500 for export. The market was very
firm. American was a shade dearer. The business in-
cluded 600 Pernam and Maranham at 50. to 6id.,
400 Egyptian at 41.-to Cid., 1,400 Surat at 34d. to
44-1, 150 Sea Island at 12id. to 170., and about 8,000
American at 4d. to 6-4 d. per lb.—Shares were dull.
Very important intormation was received at the North
and South American Coffee-house this morning, brought
by. the Loudon line of packet ship the St; James, Cap-
tain Myer. The dates were to the. Ist instant. It is
communicated that Santa Anna had arrived at Vera
Cruz on the 15th of August, in the Arab steamer; and
immediately placed himself at the head of the movement
in that department. Puebla and Mexico had declared
fur Santa Anna. Paredes had, as before known,
been taken prisoner. The revolt of the capital was
headed by General Sales.
Before Santa Anna left the Havannab, he took letters
from General Campbell to Commodore Conner, and
avowed himself, in reply to inquiries as to his intentions,
as follows:
" If the people of my country are for war, then I am
with them, but I would rather prefer peace."
A letter, dated at Vera Cruz, on the 16th August,
states that advises had been received, by express, of the
firma' annexation of California to the United States,
and that the forces of the latter had taken possession.
This highly important news is said to have been received
by special express from the British Consulate at Vera
Cruz. If correct, the negotiations must have been more
decisive than on the Oregon question.
Later information has been received this morning from
the Cape of Good hope, which brings the satisfactory
fact that the Kafir war was all but terminated, by their
disappearance from the frontier, and exhibiting a desire
not again seriously to oppose the troops sent against
them. In other respects the news is said to be
satisfactory.
The public sales in Mincing• lane to-day are of a very
unimportant character. The demand for Sugars is very
good.
In the Funds business is fiat, and prices are heavy.

The Commissioners took only a very small amount of
Stock this morning, said to be on account of the savings'
banks. Consols for the Account have been done at 95k,
and the same for Money. In the early part of the day
there was a purchase made at 95a. The premium upon
Exchequer-bills remains at I Is. 14$.
In the Foreign Stock market some transactions of
importance have occurred. The intelligence from the
United States, relative to California, has had the effect
of improving Mexican Bonds, which have risen to-day
from 24i to 254. Spanish Five per Cents. arc a trifle
higher, arid -H
the Three per Cents. are firm at 37.

Dutch Bonds may be called a shade lower than yester-
day. Portuguese Bonds are rather better.
In the Railway Share market the tendency is rather
against a rise.
