THE ACADIA ARRIVED.

We had yesterday afternoon, copies of Lon
don papers to the 9th of March, through Harm
dens Express. They were brought TO Boston;
by the Acadia steam packet of Cunard's line.
The Acadia had 79 passengers to Halifax,
landed % of them there, and took on board 8
more for Boston. She brought l3 mail bags,
containing about l l 900 letters, which, as the
British Queen left London only days before
for New York, may be considered a large num-
Der.
The London Sun of the 18th says:-Upon
mature reflection the tenor Of the advices re-
ceived yesterday from New York is considered
decidedly more satisfactory than the previous
accounts, and consequently the alarm which
prevailed here, on the subject of peace or war,
has in some degree subsidized. The best proof
of this is the fact of further advance in the
prices of all securities, both English and For
egn yesterday and to-day; those who had spec
ulated for fall having shown disposition to
change their accounts, and TO go for rise.
The improvement in Stocks is assisted also
by the state of our Money Market, which has
lately assumed an appearance of ease and stead
mess such as we were accustomed TO see in
former times; whilst the demands for capital in
trade are reduced to the lowest ebb, from the
general disposition of all parties to limit their
risks as much as possible, until political affairs
become more settled. The circulation of the
Bank must naturally be increasing daily, under
the operation of paying away notes in exchange
for the gold brought into the country; and at the
same time, people are encouraged to reduce
their reserves, and part with their surplus cash
more freely, when they see there is no longer
any danger of another sudden contraction on
the part of the Bank of England such as we
have frequently experienced when drain upon
their bullion was in force.
The steamship Columbia, hence, I'd ult. ar
rived in Liverpool, on the morning of the l6th
in little more than eleven days from Halifax
The London Evening Chronicle says-"Sir
jeremiah Dickson, K. c. B. is appointed to the
command of the troops in Nova Scotia"
Speaking of the report of Mr.. Pickens TO
Congress and the resolutions of Mr.. Fillmore,
on the Mcleod affair, the London Chronicle
says: "The resolutions are but the natural con-
sequence-the complement of the report. In
looking at the whole intelligence from America,
we do not think it justifes the serious appre-
tensions with which many seem disposed TO
regard il. We do not think that the resolutions
of Mr.. Fillmore mean war, more than, according
to his own ayowal, did the ordinances of M.
Thiers. Indeed they seem 10 be far less men,
acing."
THE MONEY MARKET. London. March 49,.
The favorable impression produced by the news
receiv ed by the Columbia, from Amenca has
led to further improvement in the Funds to-day.
Consols for the Account having closed at SO
5-s to 34 being l8 per cent. advance since
yesterday. Exchequer Bills were 6s to IS
premium.
The Boy JONES IN THE PALACE AGAIN.
The Sun, of the 10th says:--"Y yesterday even
ing the boy Edward Jones, who about three
months ago, found his way into Buckingham
Palace, and had the satisfaction of inspecting
the Queens apartments, and hearing the Prin-
cess Royal cry paid another visit to the Pal
