G. ENS,
PERFUMER AND HAIR-CUTTER,
94, BOLD-STREET,
BEGS respectfully to invite universal attention to his
unrivalled MELAINABAPHE, or LIQUID
HAIR-DYE, which, in a few moments, changes Gray
Hair to a beautiful Black. Unwilling to lower the value
of this unequalled preparation lay having recourse to the
puffing system, G. E. begs but a trial of this incomparable
Dye, which, he is confident, will be found to equal, if not
excel, any of its competitors. Amongst the drlicious
novelties of his Laboratory, he can recommend The
Restorative Balsam for weak Hair, which, if once used,
must retain the first position at the Toilet in preference
to the numerous grosser compounds of the present day.
He is also happy in being enabled to offer his choice and
fragrant perfumes, The New Essence of Verbena, and
The Prince Alfred's Nursery Baguet.
Observe the Number, 94, BOLD-STREET.

CELESTIAL POLISHING POWDER
is superior to any other composition hitherto used for
Polishing Gold, Silver, Plate Glass, German Silver, Brass,
Britannia, and all other compound metals ; it is perfectly
free from all acid or mercur►al preparation, and will re-
move the peculiar tinge from German Silver, and impart
a lustre and brilliancy equal to that of the purest Silver.
In cleaning Uniform and Livery Buttons, Crests, and
Mountings for Harness, &c., it will be found an infinite
improvement to any other composition ever yet used.

FoREIUN A ND COLONIAL.

UNITED STATES.

The, Hibernia, Capta;rl Ryrie, arrived on Thursday
night -,tt ten o'clock, bringing New York intelligence one
week later than that supplied by the Great Western.
Ni tiiiog has occurred to change the character of the
presidential election. Mr. Polk is the man who is to suc-
ceed to tl:e presidential chair. Tne elections have un-
doubtedly gone most decidedly in his favour, and in the
returns n: w received, in continuation of former advices,
we fiod a very nearly proportionate majority maintained
ty Pont. it Is perrectiy neeutrraetr:.4.4: into P.,,y analy,
s,s of the returns from individual karill, such inatieig
being of t.-. 0 inteleA on this side. The American papers
bre enjapng a fine scoahhte in debating which party has
bribed, robbed, and swindled to the gre test extent, but
as may be expected there is great.difficulty in settling these
points. Etch party admis a fair amount of delinquency,
and as to the personating of voters and fraud- in the elec-
tion returns, these are op: ale allowed to be perfectly fair
ground for the exercise of electioneering ingenuity, and
therefore in no way to be cplestioned.
It seems that Mr. Polk is name %ledged by all parties
as the new president, and we find the papers filed w:th a •
great dint of staff and nonsense in the shape of specu'a-
tions as to his policy, and who will be the members of the
new administration. Some papers go at length into the
question of the tariff, the Oregon territory, and the Texan
annexation; and the New York Ile, aid, according to its
usual custom, hatches a war with England on each and all
these points; however, as a war is always announced in
that panel- on the day previous to the steamer's departure,
its readers pretty well understand that it is rally a war of
the kind so inimitably described by Mr. Dickens, in his
account of New York ed torials.

Our Canadian news is most satisfactory and cheering.
The conservatives have achie,ed a great victory. All the
elections had terminated, and with a tritimphAnt majority
for the Governor General. The radical papers try to
make it nut that he ha 6 not a working majority, but this
is only the dying kick of a defeated faction endeavouring
to soPea down the nature of their overthrow.

The American commercial intelligence is of no especial
moment. Nearly all the Ovate stocks bad fallen in price.
The cotton market was also very dull. At New York the
prices were for Upland and Florida, ordinary to middling
at 5 a 51 cts., middling fair to fair 6k a GA, fully fair to
good fair Gi a 7 ; and 1500 Mobile and New Orleans. or-
dinary to middling 5 a 6. middling. fair to fair 61 a 71,,, and
fully fair to good fair 71 a 71. together 5000 bales.
The lat. st money article says—
The b:inks are ennbled to get a little higher rate of in-
terest, most of them get six per cent. for the ordinary run
of paper, although some of the derosit banks discount
sho t loans at five per cent. The closing of the year is
approaching, when the banks have to make up their annual
accounts. The result of the election has caused a little
feeling. in the market ; but it is believed it will have no
immediate influence on the market. Stocks generally
have receded, and the indication is that trade will be less
active, and consequently that there will be less demand
for money.
" Exult ANGE—FOREIGN.—ThebiI market has under-
gone no change in the rate. The steamer of to-morrow
will not take a large amount ; but on the contrary the re.
raqtatice will he light. Sterling hill, are held very firmly
at 110 to 1101. and Paris rates at 5 21 ; but at these rates
the transactions have been small. The exports to Europe
at th, present time are very small, and no hills will he
drawn against produce slipped for some weeks to come.
Bills on London, GO ds slip.. 110 to 110 i per cent. prem.
Bills on Paris

" FREI G FITS. —Tlwre is bur little c‘ tton going forward :
indeed the stocks here are reduced very low. The Liver-
pool and Havre packets get full, but at very reduced rates.
Many of cur freighting ships are up for the south, but
they get scarcely freight enough for ballast."
