ARRIVAL OF THE CAMBRIA.

The North American Steamer Cambria, Capt. Judkins,
which left Boston on the Ist and Halifax on the 3rd inst.,
arrived here this forenoon, shortly before 11 o'clock. She

made a speedy and pleasant passage, nothing of importance
having occurred on the way. From the accounts and ad-
vices which she brings, we regret to find that there will,
this year, if the report from the interior be correct—with
even the most favourable weather to be anticipated—a de-

ficiencv in the cotton crop. Of the wheat and other grain

crops the accounts are very various ; some States report

that they appear abundant, and promise to yield an early
harvest; whilst the accounts from others are of a contra-
dictory nature. Accounts from Mexico promise that the

war shall soon

[it to a termination, terms of peace

LATEST FROM MEXICO

A special express for the New York Herald had arrived
by the steamer, James L. Day, with intelligence, the
most important part of which was the flattering prospect

Capt. Wood, of the James L. Day, states that informa-
tion had been received at Vera Cruz, before the Day left,
that Gens. Scott and Worth, with the main body of the
, had advanced as far as the Rio Frio without oppo-
sition, and were met at that place by a deputation from

the capital with propositions of peace. The exact tenor
of the propotitions was not known. They were, however,
of such a nature that General Scott refused to accept
them, and determined to push on his forces to the Ca-
pital. It was thought, from the deep anxiety felt by the
new government, if the term government can be applied
to any party or power in Mexico, to stay the march of the
forces on the Capital, that further concessions would be
made to Gen. Scott, before he took up his line of march
from Rio Frio.
The Herald states that they have given this intelli-

if true. Mr. Clifton, the pilot of Tampico, who boarded
the James L. Day, on the 17th inst., off the port, states
that they were in daily expectation of an attack from the

Mexicans, who were reported to be 1500 strong in the vi-
cinity of the city, on the night of the 12th inst.
home trifling skirmishes took place between the troops
on the American outposts and the Mexicans, but nothing
of importance occurred.

FLOUR AND MEAL.—The market for. Western Flour con-
tinued very firm,. the sales in some measure being restricted,
owing to the indisposition to sell at current rates; the sales
were not less than 15,000 bbls, part for shipment, commencing
at 437,12 i for Genesse, but as the day advanced ,37,154 a $7,181
was paid ; and for 3000 bbls in good-order in store, 47,25 was
realized; the sales afloat, however, webelieve were all 57,12 i,
the current rate for a few days past ; for Michigan and Ohio,
$7 for mixed, and 57,12 i for straight brands were readily paid,
and these may be considered the fair closing quotations with a
good inquiry. To arrive in July, one-half the 20th, 2a 3000
bbls Ohio, &c., sold at 37. Southern generally remains as
noticed ahoy., very dull at $7,25, with only small sales; 100Ibs.
Brandywine brought 437,50. Rye flour is unsettled, and can
now only be quoted 45,50 a 35, 75 ; Corn Meal, too, is lower,
and prices uncertain; the sales of yesterday were 1500 barrels
at iii 4,75 to $4,54 for good North River and Jersey ; and 54,37,1
to .84,25 for Western, the lower being the closing rates; Brandy-
wine may be quoted nominal at $5 for barrels, and 324, cash,

GRAlN.—Wheat has continued in good supply, and prices
are without improvement; 2,500 buslielß of White Ohio brought
81,58 ; for very handsome White Genesee, 51,85 was asked-
-31,75 we suppose is a fair quotation. A lot of 400 bushels new
was received here yesterday from Charleston, and remains un-
sold. Of Northern Rye we have only to note a further sale of
700 bushels at $1.06 in the slip. Barley is offered below 70
cents, without finding buyers. Oats are-lower, and can only be
quoted 48 to 50 cents.
Co- t,n. w- dr than usual, and lower rat

. ,as more depresses .ates
were accepted. The transactions•of yesterday foot up 45,000
bushels at 96 to 98 cents for round Northern Yellow, 94 for flat
Western Yellow, and 85 to 90 for mixed Western—good at the
close being freely offered at 85 to 87k ; to arrive, 6000 bushels
sold in in July at 83 to 86 cents ; and 10,000 in July and August,
85, weight. In Beans and Peas there has of late been nothing
of importance doing ; White are worth about .81,37 i to 151,50
per bushel ; 200 bbls. sold at ,81,50, cash; black eyed Peas sell
►n a small way at .8'3,50 per bag of two bushels.

MONTREAL, June 26.—FLoun.—The market has ruled steady
but flat at 355. to 365. per barrel for the best fine, on the spot,
and 9d. to is. 3d. higher for superfine, with the privilege, in
most instances, of being held free of storage for ten days. It
should be added, however, that there has been a good deal of
inquiry for the best brands, for July delivery, at these rates,
but no sellers. WHEAT has been, comparatively speaking,
neglected during the fortnight, though offered freely at the
usual proportionate rates in relation to Flour. The last trans-
actions are as follows :—Good red Upper Canada was placed
yesterday at 7s. to 7s. Bd. per 601 b. ; good mixed to-day at Bs.
to Bs. 4d. per 601 b. ; and a few days since aparcel was placed to
complete an order at 9s. per 601 b.

NEW ORLEANS.—We have dates to the 21st. No change in
prices of Cotton. Ohio Flour was at $6,70; Illinois, $6,75 to
4'6,80; lowa, $7,25. Market firmer.
BOSTON, JUNE 30.—The transactions in Cotton continue
light. Spinners purchase sparingly, as holders seem indis-
posed to accede to concessions demanded, and hence are in-
clined to wait for further news. Flour continues dull, and
sales limited. Michigan and Genesee has dropped down to
$7,121 to $7,25.
SAVANNAH —The Cotton market was very dull, the sales for
the week ending June 25 being only 715 bales.

NEW YORK MONEY MARKET.—There has been a fair demand
for Sterling Exchange, for this packet, and prices have been
pretty well sustained.' Wequote bills on London at 6 to 6i
per cent. premium; on Paris sf. 32 to 5f 31i.
PREIOHTS.—Rates remained about the same.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET-

-THIS DAY

Our market opened with a fair demand, atprices a little above
Tuesday last, but lower than Friday.
The advices per Cambria, however, received in the middle
of the day, aad reporting a reduction of prices in the American
markets, imparted a feeling of dulness, and business at the
close was very inanimate, with a tendency towards decline.
Flour may be quoted 6d. per barrel below the prices of Fri-
day.
