bales have been sold at prices ranging from 9fr to NI cents,
which show a decline on the sale of Wednesday of ahem it to
lc: the transactions, however, have been too• limited to estab-

counts will have on our market, and we erase all quotations.

rate of Liverpool has declined to d foz• cotton in square bags;

FRANCE.—The accidental discharge of the pistol of one
of the servants of an officer on the King's staff, just as his
Majesty had, on Thursday evening, reached the Paris ter-
minus of the Corbeil railroad, on his return from Fontaine-
bleau, occasioned considerable sensation in the French
capital. We are assured, however, that the king felt sa-
th.fied that the affair had been purely accidental.
SWITZERLAND.—The latest news leaves little doubt of
the commencement of hostilities on Thursday last, the
11th instant, when, in all probability, Friburg would have
been captured by the Radicals. Still the offer of media-
tion by Great Britain might, it was deemed possible (but
we do not share in this hope), arrest the civil war.
SPAlN.—Since the royal reconciliation, a remarkable
silence has been preserved by the Madrid papers upon the
subject. Once or twice.it was mentioned that the queen
walked from one part of the palace to another, leaning on
the king's arm. But beyond this very unequivocal evi-
dence of mutual felicity, we do not remember any other
symptom of it, except the fact that his Majesty is per-
mitted to occupy his own apartments instead of being re-
quired to share those of his illustrious consort. The
