ga vessel in this port is at present, we under
stand on good authority, taking in a cargo OF raw
cotton for Canton. 1t is a low priced cotton, laid in
al and g cents per pound.
This fact proves that whenever cotton falls in this
country to a certain point, say q orr cents, a new
market for American cotton can be found in China.
And so far from cotton ever reaching the United
States from India, we can, at low rates, compete
with India at her own doors, as i,were in the cult.

few days at the fartherest, the two great parties
will meet, at which time a regular fight will come

paper, the " Buffalo Commercial Advertiser" if
you have the honor Of an {" exchange" ofthis even

a resolution of the directors, (four of whom deem
the Herald a very immoral paper, and one of the
four acknowledges that he never read it!) to dis

the Herald 10 the list OF newspapers now on the
files of the reading room, and accordingly for

PASSENGERS FOR EURoPE.-That fine packet ship,
the Siddons, sails on the 2h instant, with nearly
forty passengers We believe she has only two
berths unengaged. This speaks well for that ship,
and indeed for her companion also. The recent
delays and accident TO the steamships have pro-
duced a bit of a revolution in the passenger business
to Europe. The truth need not be any longer con
cealed and may be now told-Cunard's steamers
will have to come direct from Liverpool to New
York, or they will be run off the ocean by the New
York packet ships 10 less than two years. They
cannot get passengers at B~oston-people will not go
so far out of their way.
