STATE OF TRADE.

The vessels which arrive from Europe bring very light
freights for the season. The demand for goods from the in-
terior appears to have ceased, and the markets are conse-
quently becoming more inactive. In Flour the demand for
the eastern markets has rather exceeded the receipts, not-
withstanding that the canal navigation is uninterrupted. This
has caused an increased firmness on the part of holders ;
common Western Flour is held at 4 dols. 871 cents, at which
sales to a small extent have been made on French account.
Ohio is held at 4 dols. 62i cents.
CorroN.—There has been a fair business doing in Cotton
through the week, and prices have closed at about the rate
current after the arrival of the British Queen. The southern
markets generally appear to have improved. The accounts
by the Great Western reached New Orleans on the 13th, but
the effect of her news was not visible in the markets. The
following is a table of stock, sales, prices, and remarks at the
different points for the weeks previous to the day affixed :

TORNADO AT NATCHEZ.
(From the Neu, York American, May 22.)
The steamer William French has arrived at Louisville and
Cincinnati, having passed Natchez early on the morning
after the dreadful catastrophe. We make the following ex-
tracts from the Louisville Journaland Cincinnati Chronicle,
which furnish some mournful particularsof the disaster.
(From the Cincinnati Chronicle.)

at two p.m., and passed

the buildings in the city : amongst them were every building
under the hill, except Mr. Cotton's grocery, (a small build-
ing which was partially injured) ; the beautiful grove of trees
around the Court-house is wholly prostrated ; and the Court-
house itself partially destroyed—all the banks except the
Commercial—every hotel except the Mansion-house, which
was partly blown down. The

were equally awful. The steamboat Hinds was blown into
the river and sunk, and all the crew and passengers except
four men were lost ; the number of passengers on board was
not known. The captain was said to be on shore at the
time, but had not been seen.
The destruction of property, of course, is immense, and
no estimate can yet be formed of its amount ; and we regret
to add that the number of lives lost is also very great. The
William French passed 'Natchez only twelve hours after, and
at that time the citizens were entirely engaged in taking out
the dead bodies frOrn the ruins. Seven ladies had already
been taken from the ruins of the Steamboat Hotel. The
loss on board the flat I)6:As must have been awful, as it is rea-
sonable to presume that at least two persons were on each
boat; which would make the number lost in this manner up-
wards of two hundred. The estimates on the spot, by the
citizens of Natchez, varied from three to seven hundred.

(From the Louisville Journal.)
It is said there were 50 persons buried in one of the hotels.
Seven were taken dead from the railroad depot, and seven
dead and one injured from the hotel under the hill. Rumour
says, that in all, 200 persons have been taken dead from the
ruins. Of course many not killed were more or less injured.
It is stated, that the fTnily. of Mr. 11. P. Postlethwaite
was preserved in the following singular manner :—one of the
children became frantic or alarmed, and ran into the cellar—
tbe other members of the family followed, and just as they
all reached the cellar the house was blown off. The family
of Mr. Watt, of the firm of Burke, Watt and Co., were ac-
cidentally led to leave the dinner table and go out in the yard,
and instantly the room they had left was blown down.

It is stated that many persons were blown from the streets
into the river.

How far the ravages of this. storm extended we did not
learn. Some say that it was not felt in its greatest violence
anywhere but in and near Natchez ; but that is hardly pro-
bable. At Napoleon, Arkansas, 24 hours after the storm at
Natchez, a house was blown down, and a flat boat sunk with
five men. A gentleman informs us, that he saw the ravages
of a recent tornado above Vicksburg'', and conjectures that
it was the same storm. At five o'clock, on the day following,
there was a violent hail storm in Louisville, which passed
through Frankfort.
An intelligent passenger in the French informs us that
parts of nearly all the plantations on the Mississippi were
overflowed, and the river had not reached its highest point.
On the Red River, we learn, thousands of acres of planted
cotton were under water.

ARRIVAL OF THE BRITISH QUEEN.

PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY MORNING.—The British Queen
anchored this morning between seven and eight o'clock, and
has brought over 180 passengers.
The intelligence which her arrival furnishes is principally
commercial, and we regret to say of a character not to be
deemed improving.
The New York commercialists have each their several
versions of existing matters, but the true aspect of affairs is
anything but promising. We are advised of a sale of United
States Bank Shares at 711, and it is believed that some few
were done at 72, about an hour before the British Queen
departed. The Stock Exchange was more than usually flat
on the day of the Queen's leaving, but the Unicorn steamer
being expected from Boston with later arrivals from England,
was in some degree the cause of this.
Our files of papers supplying us with New York dates of
the Ist instant, do not extend back so long as previously, re-
ceived dates require, although we believe the deficient ad-
vices are wholly unimportant.
The outward passage of the British Queen was one of great
rapidity ; she anchored at New York on the evening of the
15th ult., having got out in 14 days, calculating the time
from the hour of dismissing her English pilot to that of
taking the American one on board, it was exactly 13 days and
11 hours. The homeward passage has occuped about 14 days
and a half.

The several states seem to be each propounding various
schemes of bank bills, with a view to prevent the distresses
which are so constantly occurring. Advices from Harris-
burg, of the 29th ult., give particulars of a bill for this pur-
pose, and which passed the House of Representatives by a
majority of 39. Its principal provisions are nearly as fol-
lows :—All banks are forbidden to hold any other stocks
than those of the United States ; also from the issuing of
post notes. Stockholders are to be individually liable in
proportion to the amount of stock held by them ; and all
such banks as shall, after January 15, refuse to redeem their
obligations in gold or silver, to be deprived of their charter.
The crops are everywhere said to be most abundant, and this
supplies a hope that affairs may hereafter improve.

The election of president is exciting unusual interest, and
from the accounts it would seem that the rioting and profli-
gacy usually attendant on such elections in the model re-
public has greatly increased. The papers abound with state-
ments of the most abandoned nature, and it is scarcely pos-
sible to overstate the extent to which bribery and party spirit
are carried. It is even said that courts-martial are being
held on several officers of the army, on no other charge than
that of having purchased supplies for the commissariat de
partment from persons not actually partisans of the Van Bu-
ren party.

By advices from Washington, of the 27th ult., it would
seem that pretended difficulties are started in opposition to
any uniform law of bankruptcy. Numerous leading mem-
bers of Congress have expressed themselves opposed to the
passing of a law.
Natchez has been visited with a most terrific tornado, by
which nearly 300 lives have beeen lost, and the amount of
damage to buildings alone is estimaKd to exceed a million of
dollars. Many of the most respectable inhabitants fell vic-
tims to the fury of the hurricane, but the majority of persons
killed were either fishermen or persons whose habitations
were close to the coast. .

Fayetteville, in South Carolina, has also suffered much
from a severe hurricane, which has greatly injured the crops
in that district. . .

From Canada we learn that the Lieutenant-Governor pro-
rogued the Special Council on the 15th ult. Much dissatis-
faction is expressed in consequence of the Governor Gene-
ral's refusal to alter the anomaly which is said to exist in
the currency of the two provinces. Mr. J. Macdonnell and
the Hon. D. B. Vigor, both of whom were imprisoned on
charges of high treason during the late rebellion, have been
liberated.

The whole of the 85th regiment has reached Montreal,
from the Upper Province.
We are enabled to announce the gratifying intelligence of
another splendid triumph of steam navigation achieved in
the safe arrival at Boston of the Unicorn steamer from Liver-
pool. A correspondent informs us that she was telegraphed
off Boston on Saturday, the 30th (two days before the Queen
sailed.) A public meeting of the inhabitants of Boston had
been previously called, and it was agreed to have great fes-
tivities and rejoicings, the expense of which was to be de-
frayed from the civic funds.

The unsound principle of constructing the engines of steam-
ers in America has been again tested in the explosion of two
vessels. One of these, the Greenfield, which plied between
Montague and Hartford, on the Connecticut, has been blown
up, and several lives lost ; the other, named the Grampus, of
New Orleans, caused the death of two of the crew, and seri-
ous injuries to others.
It is said to be the intention of the United States Govern-
ment to employ Indians to negotiate between them and the
Semolini Indians, and thus put an end to the inhuman Flo-
rida war. Little credit will be due to our friends in the
States for any good which may thus occur, as it appears they
are animated in such course solely to put an end to the ex-
pense which this war involves. Several butcheries attended
with their usual sanguinary circumstances have recently oc-
curred. Captain Roberts of the Queen, has received the
warm congratulations of his passengers in addresses, &c. ;
and we understand that an elegant silver speaking-trumpet
and telescope have been presented him during the voyage.

(From the New York Courier, June 1.)
SUNDAY NIGHT.—The Stock Market yesterday was very
calm and prices receding. It is necessary, however, to keep
in view that in this observation, and those generally made in
relation to the stock market here, reference is only had to
those particular stocks to which of late the operations of the
board have been almost exclusively confined, and these are
those of incorporated companies. State Stocks have been
much sought for, and their value has materially improved.
Those preferred are the stocks of this state and Ohio, and
the corporation of this city, but sales out of the board have
also been effected of Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, and Alaba-
ma, and the purchasers have been capitalists or commission
houses executing orders from abroad. Little or nothing has
been done in them on speculation : 6000 dols. Michigan Six
per Cent. were sold on Saturday at auction at 78 ; Indiana
Five per Cent. at 79/; 11,000 dols. Arkansas Six per Cent.
at 75 ; 12,000 dols. Alabama were also advertised but not
put up ; 50 shares of the Southern Life insurance and Trust
Company were offered but withdrawn, 50 being the highest
bid for them. Our Corporation Bonds are in active demand,
and with, perhaps, one or two exceptions, are the only securi-
ties in the market above par. New York Five per Cents are
firm at 95. United States Bank is looking down, and sales
are heavy. The only railroad stocks that maintain their
prices, and indeed advance, are the Utica and Schenectady
and Utica and Syracuse railroads. The latter is a favourite ;
has risen 20 per cent. within the last six months, and is now
firm and in demand at 119 per cent.
The transactions in foreign exchanges yesterday were on a
more limited scale than was expected, to-morrow being the
day of the departure of the British Queen, and that and the
following day of three packet ships. The business done
ciosed at the following rates, the supply of bills on all places
having been full :
London
Paris
Hamburg ....... 35/ 851
Bremen
Amsterdam 39* 40
The British Queen and packets will certainly carry away
half a million of dollars in specie, and probably much more,
of which no official record will be kept, and this too with
foreign exchanges at least 1/ per cent. in our favour, or in
favour of remitting bills. We trust the specie maniacs will
see, in this circumstance, apparently so unaccountable, the
futility of their endeavours to restrain the natural course
of trade, or to appropriate to this country more than its due
proportion of the precious metals.
Since the departure of the Great Western the demand for
cotton has been fully equal to the supply, and the prices of
that date have been quite maintained. A great proportion
of the late purchases have been made for home consumption.
The present prices are—
Uplands, very ordinary to middling
Fair to good, fair and good
Tennesse and Alabama
Fine Mobile, Louisiana, &c. 9l to 11 to 12

The Flour Market is very inactive, and good western may
be bought at 4 dollars.

SECOND EDITION.

Standard Ofice, Three o'clock.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—Tins DAY.
We have again to report extremely diminutive supplies of
Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal, coastwise and from Ireland; but
from Europe and the United States together, the arrivals be-
tween Tuesday last and to-day furnish nearly 10,000 qrs. of
Wheat, with close upon 20,000 barrels of Flour, and 439 qrs.
of Indian Corn.

During the same time, occasional but by no means exten-
sive sales of Wheat and Flour were effected, and all articles
of the Corn trade remained steady in value.

The only change in the duties for the ensuing week is an
advance upon Wheat to 18s. Bd. per qr., and upon Flour to
lls. ad. per barrel; which, having been foreseen, several
importers have within the last few days cleared out a fair
quantity at 16s. Bd., while others, expecting a lower rate of
duty at no remote period, prefer waiting the result.
Although at this day's market we had a very slender at -
tendance of either local or country millers, all descriptions of
Wheat were held rat her firmiy at an advance of 2d. per 701bs. ;
which, being reluctantly complied with, the transactions on
the whole, were upen upon a very limited scale at this amend-
ment.

American duty-paid Flour, continuing to exclude the sale
of English and Irish, moves off regularly into the hands of
consumers, and must be noted Gd dearer than on Tuesday ;
since which, about 10,000 barrels in bond have been taken
by speculative buyers at 24s 6d to 25s 6d per barrel.
Foreign Barley, upon a moderate demand, maintained late
prices.—Malt, Beans, and Peas, were in slow request, and
severally the turn cheaper.
Oats and Oatmeal also, commanding very little notice to-
day, hardly retained their previous value.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, JUNE 18.

The currency of Butter is nominally as noted in our last, and the
market is excessively flat.—Beef held for more money, whilst Pork
can be purchased upon easier terms.-Bacon in good demand.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, JUNE 16.
(From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott and Son.)

Since Tuesday last the imports of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal,
from Ireland and Coastwise, have been very moderate, but of
Wheat and Flour, from Foreign ports, our supply continues weekly
to a fair extent ; and it having been pretty well ascertained that
the expected increase in the duty on Wheat last Friday would not
occur, dt,ty was paid only on about 10,000 quarters of Wheat, on
about 6000 barrels of Flour, and on almost the whole (about 4000
quarters) of Barley up to and including Thursday last.
During the past week the weather has continued very favourable
for all agricultural produce ; we have, however, experienced a more
active and extensive demand for Wheat and Flour, of which some
very considerable sales have been effected, in bond and free, and
for every article in the Corn trade, at about the prices of last Tues.
day; which, for Flour, were easily obtained, and in some instances
a little exceeded here, and in all our country markets.
The duty on Grain from Foreign ports has, since Friday last, in
creased Is 6d. per quarter on Barley, Indian Corn, and Buck Wheat
but decreased on Oats. Beans and Peas Is 6d per quarter; and
although now with every prospect that it will be increased 2s per
quarter on Wheat, and 14d per barrel on Flour. next Friday, very
considerable transactions have occurred in both articles, free and
in bond, particularly in the latter in bond, on the passage at 24s 3d
to 24 6d, in docks and in warehouses here at 248 6d to 255, and in
smaller quantities at 25s 6d per barrel , and millers, dealers, ex-
porters' and speculators, for a reduction in the duties before next
harvest, have been purchasers. Oats, in bond, continue nominally
at as 8d to 38 Id per 451 b. and there is a prospect of the duty being
still materially reduced.
This day's market was pretty well attended by our own millers
and dealers, ant by many from distant markets ; an advance of 2d
to 3d per 701 b. on Wheat, and 3d to 6d per barrel on Flour was
steadily demanded, and obtained to a moderate extent.—Malt was
Is per quarter lower, but for all other articles our last quotations
were obtained.
