FOREIGN NEWS.

We have the Boston Courier, extra, of Sat
urday last. giving the news brought by the Cal
edonia which had just arrived, bringing advces
from Liverpool up to the l9th of November.
The intelligence is OF no great interest.
The cotton markets remained in statu quo.
The Queen was visiting the castles of the
nobility. She has more to apprehend from the
wrelched huts of the peasantry.
Changes in the British Cabinet are spoken of
Peel aud Aberdeen 10 remain. A late pro-
phecy says that these Ministers will remain as
long as the Queen rsigns, and that Victoria
will reign Till the Kingdom becomes Repub-
lie.
The Anti-C orn-Law League has suspended
its operations for the present.
Great complaints made of the competition
which British manufactured goods had TO sustain
with those OF America in the Brazil, Mexican,
South American, and Chinese markets, the extension
of the cotton manufactures of the United States
in every direction, and the increased consump-
ton of raw cotton in America, all Of which,
it was commended, rendered it absolutely essen
tia if the English exporter was to be ena-
bed 10 meet the American manufacturer equal
terms in foreign markets, that the present duty be
forthwith taken of the raw material as the longer
such a measure might be delayed, the more estab-
llshed would be the American export trade, and the
more difficult all present and future competition.
IRELAND.
The repeal agitation remained without movemen Mt
Murders however were continually committed; the
county of Tipperary being particularly distinguished
for cold-blooded atfocity with which crime was
committed.

MIR. INGERsoLLs ADDRESS.

~ We are very reluctantly compelled TO
lay over much matter, prepared for to-day's pa
per, in consequence of the length of the able
and interesting address Of MIR. lngersol, among
which, besides the editorial matter, are the no.
,ces of the Presidents Message taken from The
columns of our contemporaries, and which viii
appear tomorrow We may remark here that,
with the exception Of the captous criticisms Of
suudy Federal editors, who are supposed to be
either directly or indirectly pensioned by the
British or Mexican governments, no annual
message was ever better received, or more uni
yersaly approved by the patriotism and intelli-
gence of the country"
II will be seen that the cudgels which we had
taken up against the extraordinary attacks of
Mr.. Adams, have been seized by Mr.. lngersol,
in his own defence aud that they are used with
great deYterily and effect. We do not remem-
Der 10 have read anywhere more piquant cas-
tlgation.
