Owing to ti,e continued mild open weather, considered
favourable t the picking of the new crop of cotton, com-
bined with the unexpected delay of the Great Britain,
prices have been less firm since the sailing of the Great
Western, with a falling off in some descriptions of Upland
of fully id. per lb. The sales, also, within the past week,
have been very limited. Flour has slightly receded in
price since the last steamer, closing at a fraction under 3
dollars 50 cents per barrel for good Western Canal. Other
bread stuffs have not varied much from the prices current
at the date of our last. The quantity of wheat and flour
received this year through the New York canals is equal
to 717,116 barrels of flour over the quantity received in
4845. FREIGHTS.—To Liverpool—Flour, 3s. 3d. to 3s.

GRAlN.—Wheat is in fair request for shipment ; but
owieg to the dullness of flower, lower prices are offered
by millers. The transactions include 1,000 bushels in-
inferior Southern for milling, at SO cents ; and for ex-
port, 6,030 white Genessee, dols. 1,20 ; and 8,000 mixed
western, dols. 1,03 to dols 1,35, cash. Northern rye is in
demand, but the market is heavy, and prices somewhat
lower ; the sales reach 45,000 bushels, chiefly for export,
at 79 to 81 per cents. A lot of 2,000 bushels prime four-
rowed barley sold yesterday for malting, at 633 cents.
Northern oats have declined to 35 to 37 cents ; shipments
to the extent of 50,000 bushels (purchased in the interior)
we understand, are about being made to England. 12,000
bushels canal were purchased on Monday for export to
London, on private terms. Corn, on Saturday last, was
very heavy, and the market entirely unsettled, with sales
of 15,000 bushes, port for export, at 651- to 72 cents. for
mixed western and yellow northern and 75 cents for
southern white ; since then there has been more steadi-
ness, and the supply, too, is less abundant •, the transac-
tions Monday and yesterday consist of 28,500 bushels, at
68 to 70 cents for mixed and yellow western and northern
and 72 to 73 for Jersey yellow, all weight. At Philadel-
phia, 12,000 bushels yellow have been purchased at 70
cents ; and at Boston, 22,000 bushels, white, 80, weight,
both. for export from those port. Black-eyed peas of the
new crop, have been received, and are held at 2,50.
1/novlstoNs.—On Saturday last purchases of Ohio
mess-pork were made, supposed for export to England,
variously estimated from 3,000 brls. to 5,000 brls. at &Is.
10,50; a small lot was subsequently sold at the same price.
but the market closed heavily at dols. 10,371 ; indeed 500
brls. were offered at 6 cents less without finding a buyer.
In prime, there has been nothing of importance done; we
quote it 9,25 to 9,371. Beef is stea4y, with a fair,dernand
for home consumption, for home use only, at our quota-
tions. Butter arrives rather more freely, and sales are
less readily made at previous rates. Cheese is in quick
request for export, selling mostly on arrival at 7 to 71
cents for good in boxes.

A letter of the 20th, from Paris, states that such is the
demand for Irish labourers on French fines, that they can
earn from sf. to 6f. a-day, while the native workmen only
receive from 3f. to 3-if.
A romantic couple were niurrind nn the 2nd of Septem-
ber,7by torchlight, on the summit of the Natural Bridge
of Virginia. There were nine groomsmen, all bearing
torches, and nine bridernaids clad in white.
A GOOD DAY'S WORK.—A correspondent of the
Hartford Covrant gives an account of a wedding which he
attended in Alabama, the bridegroom of which had done
his courting, found the 'Squire, invited the company, rode
42 miles for the license, was married, and rode 15 miles
for the whiskey, i❑ 12 hours.—Ameriean Paper.
IBRAHIM PASHA.—No sooner did this prince reach
his own dominions than he decided on sending two of his
sons to England to acquire a knowledge of the habits and
language of the people, with a view of infusing into Egypt
the spirit of English civilisation. These youths, who are
most intelligent, have been placed under the care of Dr.
Heldenmaier, president of the Pestalozzian school, at

Worksop.
THE INUNDATIONS IN FRANCE.—The Journal des
Debate states " that the list of departments laid waste by
the late inundations still increases, and every day an-
nounces disasters from a number of localities from which
no accounts have previously been received. Nevertheless,
the waters of the Loire are decreasing in every direction,
and the last rains have not added to the inundations.
Three, mails from 'Marseilles, which had been retarded,
had succeeded in reaching Paris on Monday afternoon,
the v.:ads in the department of the Loire having become
free.

ARISTOCRACY OF TIIE SElN.—Robert, a young man,
the brother of the Governor of the African colony of Li-
beria, composed of free negroes exported from America,
quitted the colony to go to Pittsfield, Massachusetts, in
order to acquire the knowledge necessary to the exercise
of his profession of medicine. The faculty of medicine
admitted him to his studies, but another student born in
the south refused to be in the same society with the black,
and the College of Pittsfield signified to the young man
that she was obliged, though with regret, to close her
I gates against him. The New York Sun, indignant that
the lie should be given by the philosophers of Massachu-
sets to their doctrines of equality,asks if this young negro
will not find in New York a college which will admit him.
None has hastened to give him a reception. Robert will
have to leave the land of liberty, and find refuge with the
tyrannical British.—Montreal Paper.
THE LATE PREMIER'S CANADIAN POLICY.—On-the

ye day of the official announcement of Sir Robert Peel's
em extraordinary alliance with the rebel party, the fol-
m; "-wee scene tuck place in the Commons House
f Canadas :—A Mr. Simpson, who is
lai ,ck's mother, was speaking in favour
,:rote'ge-, Monsieur Gir,;uard, and of
,pointrnent which had been offered to him,
ei M'Nab suddenly rose up, and, bowing to

Sir A. 141'Nab—" Then I beg to inquire whe-
Aaded, and if so, whether the reward
,;red by the government has been paid ?" Mr. Simpson
—" Mons. Gironard was apprehended, and the reward
has been paid." Sir A. M'Nab—" To whom was this
reward ot i.:500 paid'" Mr. Simpson (confusedly)—
