NEW YORK, Auc. 1.

There has been an animated demand for both Pots
and Pearls, arising from the favourable account from
Europe, and partly from the extensive speculations that
have been recently entered into, founded on a belief
that the increased consumption of cotton would call
for a large supply of Pots ; the price of Pearls is gene-
rally governed by the price of Pots ; the expense of peall-
ing being ordinarily added to the value of the grosser
salts; besides,the proportion of Pearls and Pots is usually
so small, that even when made from weaker salts, they
command a higher price. For cotton bagging there has
been some inquiryduringthe coure,,f the last eight days.
and sales have been made, chivfly at 25 cents. Ex-
changes bills on London have been sold at, to a mode-
rate extent, 9i,5. to The principal sales were from
10 to 10k. which may be considered the fair market
Price In France there ha, been considerable demand,
and the salts were from sf. 15c. to sf. 17 c. Nothing
doing in Amsterdam ; nominal price 40i. Some bills
on Hamburgh have been sold at Ssc. per month banco.
Freights continue dull. Yesterday there was more
offering for Cotton to England than during the course
of last week. A id. has been accepted, in some in-
stances, for compressed bales to Liverpool ; but the
current rate is 5 16ihs to 7.l6ths. To France there
is no alterati 'n in the rates. The large shipments
of corn to Engl ind have caused an advance of both
Northern and S n Wheat. The latter has im-
proved fully two cents. per bushel. Oats are lower.
Flour has improved generally, both in demand and
price. New York is rather higher, and ‘Vestern from
181 to '2.5 cents. higher than our last. In naval stores,
Turpentine has advanced; sales to the extent of 8,000
barrels have been made, of which one-half was disf osatd
of yesterday, and the day before prices ruling at two dol-
lars less. Two per cent. for three quarters soft, to two
dollars 66} cents. for all soft, part to arrive: export,
5,449 banes. Rice continues languid, and without
change in price; from 2{ dollars to 3 dollars 25 cents.
salt there is little er none in first hands; Liverpool ground
has been sold, since our last report,at 38 cents, and blown
at 35 cents per bushel. For Tobacco therehas been some
inquiry, and sales have been made to the extent of be-
tween six and seven hundred hogsheads: Kentucky from
4} dollars to 5} dollars, according to quality, princi-
pally from 41 to 41 dollars for ordinarily good; 5 to
5i dollars have been paid in a few instances for very
choice parcels. Whalebone has advanced, and con-
siderable sates have been effected; about 4,0001b5.
were sold at 40 cents, which is now the market price.--
Dye woods remain very dull; there is no Campeachy in
first hands. Coals, to the extent of 800 tons from Li-
verpool, have been sold during the week at 10 to 101
dollars: the quantity afloat is small. Cotton, from the
continued large sales at Liverpool, both to the trade and
on speculation, added to the circumstance that freights
are unprecedently low, gave more nerve to our shippers,
who bought freely at about last week's rates for fair
cotton. We advance our highest quotation for upland,
many good parcels of which have been recently o'
by speculators, who have realized a small advance
manufacturing demand is limited; total sales
week fire thousand bales.

Notwithstanding the repotted differences in the Cabi-
net, the filling up of vacancies in the several depart-
ments of the Government continues without intetrup.
lion. It is confidently stated that a successor to Lord
Merman, in the high office of Lord Chancellor of
Ireland, has been appointed in the person of Lord Chief
Baron ALEXANDER. It is also affirmed, though not with
the same degree of confidence, that the vacancy thus
occasioned in the Court of Exchequer, is to be filled up by
the appointment of the present Solicitor-Gen. (TINDAL)
as L 'rd Chief Baron. As a disjointed Cabinet would
scarcely undertake to make appointments of such im-
portance, and as the persons designated to fill them would
not accept them, if offered by a ricketty and disunited
administration, we may fairly conclude that there is not
a shadow of truth in the rumoured differences, by which
the public have been annoyed for some days past.—
Coupled with the nominations we have mentioned, there
has been a removal, which stamps upon our opinion a
kind of moral certainty, and is so expressive as to the
solidity of the present Cabinet, and particularly as to
the sentiments of the Etna with respect to the line of
policy to be followed at this important juncture, that we
are surprised it has not attracted more attention: We
allude to the notice in Tuesday night's Gazette, an-
nouncing the appointment of Lord Fires in the room of
the Marquis of LONDONDERRY, as one of the Lords of
his MAJESTY'S Bedchamber. This notice absolutely
puts an extinguisher on the rumours in question, as it
is altogether improbable, if there was the slightest
degree of truth in the latter, that the other would be
published. The KING, it is agreed by all, has nobly
done his duty in the late difficult and painful circum-
stances of the country, and may be truly said to have
anticipated, rather than followed the wishes of pis
people, and the wants of the civilized world, of which
this country is Dow the last stay. His MAJESTY has
also acquired an unexampled degree of popularity; and
those who know him best fear the least with respect to
our future course of policy.
We have private advice' this morning from Madrid
to the 18th instant. They observe an extreme circum-
spection, as may be easily imagined, on the alarming
state of the country generally, and on the still more
alarming state of her political relations with Por-
tugal. At these two portentous subjects they merely
glance in an oblique way, but still contrive to let
us know, that the difficulties of the one, and the
sinister appearances of the:other, have not been hitherto
exaggerated. They mention one piece of news, which
will excite some surprise—namely, that a large sum of
money, destined for the purpose of raising the standard
of insurrection in Gallicia, had been seized on the way li
by a party of the KING'S troops. It will be naturally
asked, by whom was this money advanced ? and,
we confess, the question baffles our means of solu-
tion. It is altogether improbable that any foreign
Government has contributed it; fir though the pre-
sent troubles may afford a pretext for foreign in
terference, yet the principle is so iniquitous, and the
actical applic 'lien of it so dangerous, that we renounce
the notion at once. It is scarcely credible too, that the
priesthood would open their coffers for such a purpose;
and we therefore suspect, that there is more truth in the
report, that am is a powerful faction which wishes
to raise DoN Catar.os to the throne, than is gene-
rally imagined. Whether that Prirce is privy to the
design, we csomot say ; but that it has numerous active
and powerful abettors, e•nnot be denied. We believe
at the same time that it has no ramifications abroad, but

that the plot is •Ulusively Spani.h, it is clearly of
Apostolical manufacture; and, should it succeed, the
remits would be, in the first place, frightful to humanity,
but in the end serviceable, as all excess of evil in the
political world leads to a radical remedy.
These advice: revive the silly, aad, as we thought,
exploded rumour, that the Spanish Government is again
intent on preparations for the reconquest of Mexico,
and that the troops assembled at S.ville, as well as the

armament that has been sent to the Canaries, are des-
tined for this purpose. The subject is so ridiculous,
that it requires only to be mentioned to provoke
laughter. The troops, collecting in Andalusia, if the
state of that citleeince does net require their presence,
are intended Int. a tiny different service; and, if we
are not miata4u,Portugal, and not South America, is
their eestinatias. However their entrance into that King-
dom depends upon contingencies, which we trust will
never happen; for as long as England is governed by
liberal and enlightened councils, no Spanish soldier will
venture, in a hostile manner, to pass the )Portuguese
frontiers. The following is an extract of a letter :

" PRIPIONAN, Auo. 20.—The bands in Catalonia
are multiplying. The diligence coming from Barcelona
has been stopped to-day at Cumuli? The rebels oc•
copy the high road. Accounts have just arrived (torn
limb, stating that a battle has taken place atMeya,,
between the King's troops and the tebels."
