FOREIGN 4 COLONIAL INTELLIGENCE

(From our Second Edition of Tuesday last")
ARRIVAL OF THE AMERICAN PACKET-SHIP

" GARRICK."

THE MONEY MARKET.—The New York Herald of
the 26th reports under this head that American gold is in
demand at a per cent, premium, and very little can be
procured. The quantity of specie in the country is suffi-
cient for all its wants, and is constantly increasing. There
are in the New York banks 13,000,000 dols. in money ;
and yet scarcely any is to be found in circulation. There
is very little prospect of a demand for business purposes,
and money can therefore be obtained on good security,
at prices never before equalled. It is expected that it
will be long before the import trade can revive, under
the present tariff.

CORN MARKET.—The improvement noticed in this
market in our last report still exists, and prices are firm,
at an advance on our last quotations. Genesee is at
5 dols. 75c., and operations to some extent at that rate.
Michigan 5 dols. 621 c. ; Southern, common, 5 dols. 50c. ;
flat and round hoop Ohio at 5 dols. 50c. to 5 dols. 621 c.
Our quotations for all descriptions during the present
fluctuating state of the market cannot be otherwise than
nominal. Many holders of Genesee demand a little above
the rates given, while others, more wary, are disposed to
operate often and remain safe.

REPEAL AGITATION IN AMERICA.—The son of the Pre-
sident of the United States is reported by the New York
Weekly Herald to have identified himself with this agitation
The Herald thus describes the circumstances—" Bob
Tyler, (!) agreeable to previous intimation, addressed a
numerous assembly of repealers at Boston on Wednesday
last." The speech referred to was calculated to excite
the passions of the Irish population of the States.
In New York a meeting of the Repeal Association was
held on the 24th, and exhibited a most tumultuous scene.
The Americans have taken objection to Daniel's anti-
slavery efforts ; and the opinion of parties able to esti-
mate the feelings of that people upon this ticklish sub-
ject is that " reaction has begun," and that the " sympa-
thy" of America " has cooled down to zero." " Every
future meeting of the repeal agitation throughout the
union," remarks the New York Herald, " will present a
scene similar to this. Rows are unavoidahle. The whole
agitation may, indeed, be fairly said to be at an end in
this country."

Mrs. Catharine Gilmour, alias Cochrane, who came
passenger in the Excel, from Liverpool, was arrested on
the 24th inst., on the charge of poisoning her husband in
Scotland in January last.

Yesterday she was brought up to have her first exami-
nation before Mr. Rapelyea, U. S. Commissioner, and
ultimately postponed till the Ist July.
This is the first arrest under the new treaty.
MATANZAS.—An arrival at Savannah from Matanzas
brings a report of an insurrection in the Island of Jamaica
though no particulars. An English brig was totally lost
on the east end of the island of Cub- while going in to
load.

Mr. Legare, the Attorney-General of the United States,
had died suddenly.

James Gordon Bennett, of the New York Herald, ar-
rived in England by the " Garrick," and is expected to
return in autumn.
