NEW YORK MONEY MARKET.

TUESDAY, AUG. 18, 6 P.M.—The Acadia, at Boston, fur-
nishes again four days later news. Nothing definite had tran-,
spired in relation to the rumoured diffi.culties between France
and the four allied powers. Grave reasons exist for appre-
hending a disturbance of the peace of Europe, which has been
unshaken for nearly 25 years. In that time the great powers
have resuscitated their means, after the disastrous wars of the
empire. By universal opinion it is allowed that the breaking
out of such a war as is threatened, would involve the revolu-
tion of Europe on the one hand, and perhaps the dismember,
ment of France on the other. The immensity of its results
can scarcely be estimated. The United States could alone
remain neutral, and as'a consequence, the carrying trade of
Europe must devolve upon her ; while the capital of Europe
will seek this country for security. There is but little pro-
bability of the peace of Europe being broken ; the interests
at stake are too vast to permit it. The agitation will, mean-
while, be unfavourable to commerce, by creating a want of
confidence and an indisposition to embark in enterprises.
The stock market has peen depressed. U. S. Bank fell
off per cent. North American Trust and Banking Co. t,
Delaware and Hudson I, Stonington 4, Harlem, I. Sale of
Indiana 5 per cents were made at a decline of 4 per cent.

The sale of New York State stock adverised for to-day

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,-THIS DAY

In the course of each night, since our report of Tuesday,
we have had occasional showers, but being quickly dissipated
by an almost constant succession of strong westerly winds,
and exceedingly fine weather during the day, a considerable
share of the corn around us has been secured this week in
excellent condition : compensating in a great degree for the
small portion which was previously gathered in too hastily,
and promising a speedy completion of the harvest in this part
of the district. Meanwhile we may state, that Wheat is ge-
nerally allowed with us to be equal to an average of late
years ; Barley decidedly a full crop, and Oats and Potatoes
unquestionably abundant beyond any former precedent. Of
Beans and Pease, the culture is so little practised here, as to
render any remarks respecting them unnecessary.—Regard-
ing the quality and yield of each kind of Grain, we may be
able to speak conclusively as thrishing becomes general,
when these points will be more clearly ascertained.
The supplies of Grain coastways and from Ireland con-
tinue small, and exclusive of a moderate quantity of foreign
Wheat, with nearly 6,000 barrels of Flour, chiefly from
Canada, we have little to notice from abroad since Tuesday ;
several cargoes of Wheat and Flour, expected, not having
arrived in time to meet the low duty, now raised to 6s 8d
per quarter and 4s per barrel, leaving the rate upon other
foreign produce the same as last week.
From the 4th to the Bth instant inclusive, duties were paid
here upon 86,535 qrs. of Wheat, 5,093 qrs. Oats, 147 qrs.
Pease, 13 quarters Indian Corn, and 113,012 barrels Flour ;
subsequently further entries have been passed, of which no
official return has yet been published.
During the last two days there was a steady inquiry for
Wheat and Flour, both of which maintained their previous
value ; while other articles of the trade appeared to attract
little attention.

At our market this morning, holders of Wheat evinced a
tolerable degree of firmness, and some parcels were held on
rather higher terms ; but as no actual advance was generally
established, we merely repeat our last quotations, at which
a moderate extent of business was transacted. Barrel Flour,
the only kind in request, continued to meet a fair demand,
and in most instances an improvement of 6d. per barrel was
realized.

Foreign Barley seemed to be much neglected, and must
be considered nominally rather cheaper. Of English new
we have none at hand.

Although Malt of fine quality fully supported former prices,
inferior kinds were somewhat lower.

Oats, continuing nearly without inquiry, were further de-
pressed in value, and must be noted at least Id. per 45 lbs.
under Tuesday's currency.
Beans and Peas remained stationary.

Old Oatmeal was taken off very sparingly at previous rates ;
and new, although in limited supply, declined 6d to is per
240 lbs.
