THE NEWS STILL CHEERINC.

The NEWS STILL CHEERING.
The Foreign News, brought by the arrival Of the
Hiberna, at Boston, Is still very gratifying Trade
continues to wear much more smiling face
Cotton had advanced ONE TARTHING per pound,
and the sales in six days reached the astonsL ing
quantity of 100 900 bales! The great bulk was, Of
course, American, ard more than half SO 900
bales-were taken on speculation! The total sales
Of the last five weeks, have reached the enormous
extent of bales, against 1877 900 during the
corresponding period Of last year The sales of
Cotton during the week preceding that on which
the steamer sailed, exceeded, in fact, any similar
period since the first introduction of the Cotton
trade. The extent to which speculation has been
carried, and is still likely to be carried may be in
ferred from the fact that one capitalist is in the
market with 100000 to invest in the staple.
With regard to the Oregon question, there is a
confirmation of the previous intelligence that the
British Government has given to the new Minister,
who has recently arrived in this country, full pow
ers to settle the dispute. 1t is likewise stated that
our Minister, Mr.. Everett, is in correspondence
with Lord Stanley, the Colonial Secretary, in re-
gard to the Oregon Territory question.
1t will be observed that progress is had in the
State trials in Ireland It certainly appears that
whatever turn these trials take, matters cannot be
suffered to remain in Ireland as they are. That
country is in position too critical for any minis
ter to disregard Measures of amelioration must
follow. The popular feeling must be courted, not
coerced. The darkest hour always precedes the
dawn. Lord John Russell will bring the whole
state Of Ireland before the House Of Commons i'm
mediately on the opening Of Parliament Sai,w-
