THE SHARE MARKETS.

or by extraction now form no inconsiderable portion
of the citizens of " the United States." We speak
of our American brethren as an Anglo-Saxon race.
Perhaps " ethnologists " may discover that " a
Celtic race" would be a more correct descrip-
tion. The most hackneyed scribes cannot ac-
cuse the inhabitants of the new world of want
of energy or determination, or speak of them as a
" doomed nation." They will reserve their revilings
for those who still linger on their native shores—who
have yet preserved their allegiance to our most Gra-
cious SOVEREIGN. They are still "the most degraded
of their 'species," reproaches are still showered upon
them, as if the degrees of comparison could only be
discovered in Ireland,—the peasants being " bad," the
occupiers " worse," and the landowners the very
worst of human beings. These scurrilous calumnia-
tors forget the old adage—
, " Cerium non animans mutant, qui trans mare currunt"
The triumphant success of those who have passed
the Atlantic show that the unquestionable evils that
have existed in Ireland must be ascribed to other
sources than those arising from any alleged moral or
physical deficiency of the Irish people.

It is considered certain that MIL LEON FAUCHER

that of General RANDON, of that of Minister of War.
N. ROMIEU, the author of the " Era of the CAesars,"
who declares that military despotism is the best form

The Assemblie Nationale has the following brief
remarks on the Ministerial crisis :—" All the reports
in circulation relative to Ministerial combinations
should be received with great reserve. If we are well
informed, the PRESIDENT is more undecided than ever,
and the nearer the day approaches when he is to an-
nounce his final determination the more he desires to
postpone any decision on the law of May 31, and on
the change of Ministry. It must nevertheless be
admitted that a conviction is felt at the Elys6e, that
the Cabinet is much shaken, and that, under any cit.-.
cumstances, the opening of the Parliament cannot
arrive without material modifications being made in
it." The Journal des Debats, in a few words, confirms
the above account so far as to no decision having been
come to.
The Journal des DAals says that it is authorised to
declare that there is no truth whatsoever in the state-
ment of some of the journals that the Ambassador of
the Ottoman Porte, in a recent interview with the
Minister of Foreign Affairs, presented a note, setting
forth that, as ABBAS PACHA had refused to satisfy
the Porte, it was determined to employ force to pre-
vent the execution of the railway from Alexandria to
Cairo.

Madrid journals of the Bth have arrived.
The Beraldo states that a Ministerial crisis has
arisen owing to the Minister of Marine, General
ARMEE°, having offered his resignation ; but it adds
in a postscript that the General has, on the solicitation
of the Marquis DE MIRAYLORES, Minister for Foreign
Affairs, consented to retain his portfolio for the pre-
sent. The cause of M. ARKERO'S wish to retire
is said to be his opposition to granting certain
recompenses demanded by the Captain-General
of Cuba to the persons who distinguished
themselves in resisting the invasion of the bands of
LOPEZ ; the Minister of War and the majority of the
other Ministers being of opinion that the recompenses
ought to be accorded. There is no other news of

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were
estimated at 8,000 bales, of which 3,500 were taken for
export. The sales comprised 5,500 American, 800
Pernam and Maranham, at 54d. to 7id.; 400 Bahia, at
6d. to 61d.; 500 Egyptian, at 544. to 8d; 500 Surat, at
3kd. to 4id.; and 100 Sea Island, at ls. ld. to ls. sid.
per lb. The market closed firmly.—Railway Shares
were flat at lower prices.
The following is from Messrs. Schrcedor and Mummy's
Circular, dated New Orleans, Sept. 20, and published by
Mr. James Irvine, of Liverpool:—
" COTTON.—In our review of the Ist of September,
we mentioned that prices were sustained at that time by
a very animated demand for the North and France. The
same good inquiry continued during the week ending
oth instant, and the supplies being scarcely adequate to
the demand, prices were pushed up as high as 9c. for
middling, with sales of about 5,500 hales. Last week
opened rather more quiet, under the influence of more
ample supplies, and prioes declined considerably from
the above quotation. Towards the middle of the week,
however, owing to the continued favourable accounts per
Franklin and Niagara, a more animated demand sprung
up, buyers for the North, France, the Continent, and
Groat Britain, entering the market more freely, and the
week closed with Sic. for middling, sales about 7,800
bales. Ira the beginning of this week, the receipt of the
less favourable accounts per Pacific, and still more so
per Europa, caused buyers to be less anxious, and in
many instances concessions were made by holders ; the
demand, however, has continued generally very good,
mostly for the North, with a moderate portion for
France, Great Britain, and the Continent, and the sales
amount to 8,200 bales.
" In giving the following quotations, we would remark
that the middling qualities are paid comparatively higher
than the finer grades :—Ordinary to good ordinary, Tic.
to Bc. ; middling, 84-c. ; good middling, s jc. ; middling
fair, 9c. to 9ic.; fair, OP. to 9ic.
"The receipts have been unusually heavy so far,
which might lead people at a distance into error as to
their bearing on the extent of the crop. The unusual
drought had the effect of ripening prematurely, iu many
instances, the fruit very early; adding to this the ex-
tremely favourable weather for picking, and the desire
on the part of planters to meet the good demand prevail-
ing in this market, the early shipments are easily ex-
plained.
" With regard to the prospects of the crops, however,
the same unfavourable accounts continue to reach us
from the interior, as were mentioned in our last. The
drought has undoubtedly shortened the crop on the up-
lands very materially, and even with the increased plant-
ing, it is generally believed that the yield from those
lands will not exceed, if it does not fall short of last
year. Everywhere, it is said, there is an entire absence
of top crop. From the bottom lands the accounts are
still favourable, although by no means so much so as they
were. Plantations which were not overflowed last year,
made as much then as they are likely to do now; but of
course a great gain will bo made on the plantations
which were submerged then. The general impression
seems now to fix upon two and a half million of bales,
with an average favourable season hereafter.
" According to the statement of the 'New York Ship-
ping and Commercial List,' the cotton crop of last year
amounts to 2,355,257 bales. Sales since the Ist of
September, 19,200 bales. Receipts at this port since Ist
of September, 30,410 bales, against 9,555 bales last year.
The Prodace Markets are rather quiet, but consump-
tion progresses steadily.
The Lisbon mail has arrived, and brings rather more
satisfactory intelligence upon monetary affairs. The
circulation of the Bank was reduced by 1,600 contos,
being only 400,0001., and the discount on its notes was
2 per cent. The rate of exchange was depressed, being
52} for 90 days on London ; and unless paper was re-
ceived from Brazil or Cadiz, there was not likely to
be an improvement. One piece of news, that
must prove disagreeable to the bondholders
is that the Minister of Finance was stated
to have the idea of capitalizing the floating debt of the
arrears of salaries of the public employ& and the pen-
sions. Perhaps, however, it may be fairly urged that if
a debt is due, the sooner it is put in a train for settle-
ment the better. The vintage around Lisbon is better
spoken of.
It may be interesting to those who have mercantile
relations with the United States and California to know
,hat alterations have been made in the regulations in re-

gard to goods upon which the import duties shall have
been paid, transported from one port of the
United States to another within the same,

fist the Isthmus of Panama. It is ordered
that where any goods, wares or merchandise, of the de-
scription before-mentioned, are intended to be trans-
ported from any port of the United States, situated either
on the Atlantic or Pacific seaboard to any other port
within the United States, to be conveyed or carried
across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, the Isthmus of

Panama, or over the San Juan de Nicaragua route, to
wit i
Ist. It is to be distinctly understood that the law
does not authorise either drawback or warehouse goods,
under bond, to be transported by the routes before in-
dicated and become entitled to the privileges of the
Drawback and Warehousing Act.
2d. Parties wishing to ship goods for transportation by
the routes above mentioned, must before lading the
same on board the vessel at the port of shipment, give
at least forty-eight hours' notice, in writing, to the col-
lector of said port of his shipment, describing the goods,
and their place or places of deposit; whereupon the col-
lector will direct an inspector of the Customs to examine
and superintend the boxing, packing, or casing, as the
case may be, of the goods, which must be securely
corded, and a lead seal attached thereto by the said
offieer, to prevent the boxes, bales, cases, or packages
from being opened. Strict precautions will be taken to
examine the goods subsequently and on their arrival.
The meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Spencer,
Ashlin, and Co., held yesterday afternoon, was ad-
journed, as the offer of 3s. 6d. in the pound was not
deemed satisfactory without some further explanation as
to certain preference claims recently discharged. It
would appear, however, that there is every disposition
to restore the amount to the general account. The
balance-sheet made up by Messrs. Quilter, Ball, and Co.,
to Sept. 11, may be interesting to parties in the grain
trade in which the losses have been sustained, and we
therefore append it:—

Forged coupons of the Russian debt have been put
in circulation in Amsterdam, but the parties are stated
to have been discovered.
The dividends are this Morning being paid to the

public at the Bank of England, and there is a fair at-
tendance of annuitants. It frequently occurs, however,
that immediately upon the re-opening of the Transfer-
books, sales of stock are made, and there is a
change of investment or a determination to keep money
lying unemployed and await a favourable opportunity.
At present the very unsettled state of the French
Ministry militates against the influence of the favourable
revenue. A serious question begins also to be now
mooted by the speculators for a fall, viz., the probable
abolition of the income-tax, and a consequent excess of
national expenditure. There is, however, ample time
to consider all this, and judicious reduction of expendi-
ture would partly, if not wholly, meet the case, allowing
that Parliament abolished the tax instead of modifying
it, as many expect.

We regret to state that a large failure has occurred
this morning, that of Mr. Thomas Allsop, esteemed, and
no doubt until lately, really a wealthy member of the
Stock Exchange. Mr. Allsop is stated to be a Bear of
Consols and a lull of shares. The event has caused
unfeigned regret. This is settling-day in the English
market, and Consols have been 964 to 97 for Transfer,
and 96i to 97 for November 12. The New Three-and-
a-Quarter per Cents. are 971 to 971. Bank Stock is
