ENGLISH MARKETS.

LvERpooL, Nov. 22-Corn Market-During the
two or three days succeeding the date of our last
report, several cargoes of grain &c. came for
ward, but easterly winds have again lessened
the arrivals, and the weeks supplies are only
to a moderate amount. On Tuesday the de.
mand for Wheat was again less lively. There
continues TO be little export inquiry for Bond
ed Flour.
LONDON, Nov. 2l-Corn Exchange-There
arc plentiful arrivals of all kinds of grain this
week, and large return of -four. The Wheat
trade remains as on Monday. and the sale is not
so good. Barley dull and UNMARRIED. Beans
and Peas no alteration. Oats still remain firm
in value, but the sale is not so good. Flour un-
varied.
LIVERPOOL, Nov. 24-Cotton-In the early part
of the week, the market was quiet, and the ac-
count Of the Kings dismissal of his Ministers ap-
peared- on Monday to have a paralysing effect;
but the advices received that day by the New
York packet of the oath nt as TO the injury done
to the crop, and that but little was expected to
come forward for some weeks induced spe-
culators towards the close of the day to re.
new their operations which they continued
through the week; their purchases are estimated
at 1900 bales of American, and $50 Surats,
estabs hing an advance in prices of i'd per ID.
The imports of the week were $40 bales.
On Saturday We had good enquiry from the
trades as also from SPECTATORS and cotton not
being offered freely: further advance Of I'd pr
ID was obtained, on American descriptions, the
sales were estimated at 10000 bales of which
spectators took about 5000.

session the clearesI aud strongest proofs of the

And in procession long,
To join the army Of the lost,
Three hundred thousand strong.
Our banners beck'ning on to death,
Abroad we have unrolled;
And Famine. Care, aud wan Despair
Are seen upon their fold.
Ye heard what music cheers us on
The mothers cry that rang
So wildly, and the babe that walled
Above the trumpet's clang.
We've taken spoil; and blighted joys
And ruined homes are here;
We've trampled on the throbbing heart
And houted sorrows tear.
Wecome, we come: we've searched the land,
The rich and poor are ours;
Enlisted from the shrines of God,
From novels and from towers.
And who or what shall balk the brave
That swear to drink and de2
What boots to such, mans muttered curse
Or His, that spans the sky?

Hang misery's countless train;

Pass we the cup again!

On which shall shine no star;
