Last night the Cunard Royal Mail Steam-ship
Canada, Capt. Lang, arrived in the Mersey, from
Boston and Halifax, with advices from the former
port to the Ist inst., the latter to the 3d, and New
York to the 31st ult. Besides the mails the Canada
brings 78 passengers and 1,208,514 dols. in specie.
The screw steam-ship New York, from Bremen

The Secretary of the Treasury, at Washington,

yionmet upon the ocean anasarmp ed cruiser of any
General Walker arrived in New York on the

evening of the 28th, in company with his two
companions in arms, Colonel Frank Anderson and
Major Dolan. The last accounts we had from
New Orleans of his movements represented him
as having landed at Acapulco at the head of 300
men, and it was expected either that he would join
one of the fighting factions in Mexico, or make
another descent on Nicaragua. But neither of
these movements has been made. The 300 men
have come down to three; and these three are
conducting themselves like rational gentlemen, and
enjoying their ease in one of the quiet hotels of
the metropolis. So, for the present at least, the
Mexicans may enjoy the privilege of cutting their
own throats in their own way, and the timid in-
offensive people of the Isthmus may rest free from
any apprehensions of an immediate visitation from
the " grey-eyed man of destiny."
The War Department have received a communi-
cation from Brigadier General Clark, commandant
of the Californian military department, dated at
Los Angeles, May 2, informing them of the com-
plete success of Lieutenant-Colonel Hoffman's
United States Colorado expedition ; and adds that
the troops engaged in the expedition, with the
exception of two companies, were then in march
for economical stations on the sea-board.
The first lot of new crop wheat was sold on the
28th, in St. Louis, for five dollars per bushel. The
wheat was raised in De Soto County, Mississippi.
In the Money Market there is no particular
change. There is very little demand for money,
either by merchants or brokers, at the banks ; in
the street money is offered, with but few takers, at
five per cent. on call. The bill brokers continue to
report first-class four to six months' endorsed paper
at 7 per cent ; strictly prime acceptances, 60 to 90
days, 6 per cent. ; second-class paper, four to
eight months, 8 to 10 per cent. ; second-class sugar
paper is perhaps a trifle harder to sell than it was.
COTTON.—The news had a tendency to unsettle
the market, which was inactive. The sales were
confined to some 300 or 400 bales in lots, at
unestablished prices.
