THE COTTON MARKET,
90. Sc.

The cotton market in Havre was firm, with con-
sid cradle sales. We learn, verbally, that there
was a slight advance on the Sth, the day the Louis
Philippe sailed.
The remark of Sir Robert Peel in the House OF
Commons, on the 9th instant, that sugar from this
country would be admitted on the most favorable
terms, is worthy Of note.
The religious excitement in Switzerland had not,
at the last accounts resulted in any thing fearful
great commotion was caused in the Church of
Saint Roch in Paris, when one of the Processes
Royal, the Duchess d'Aumale, and the Princess
Clementne of SAKE Coburg, were present, by the
explosion Of a grenade during the sermon of M.
Liable Olivier. 1t appears that some villain had
placed it SO as to explode by the pressure Of door
in opening, near which it was put No persons were
killed, only few being hurt, but a large number
were nearly frightened to death.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer had fixed upon
the l4th of March for the sugar duties to take

The French Chamber of Deputies were debating
with spirit the secret service money bill.
The Dutch government has given notice that it

A scene of unusual violence of temper and per-
sonaIity had been enacted in the Chamber of De-
puties, between some half dozen Of its members

Spain continues unsettled. Its new government

The Minister of Commerce has issued 4 crcu-

take the same certificate either from the Marine

The PARIS Presse has made discovery that the
only object Of the English in putting down slavery
vas ruin all the colonies Of other States in Of
der to give Importance TO its own possessoAs, in
which the produce Of the earth is obtained by
means Of free labor The Presse and Mr.. Calhoun
seem to agree
The Revue de Paris says that naval reinforce.

The Minister Of Finance and the King are said
to oppose the project for the conversion Of the FIVE
per cents
The Prose- says:-We are informed that the
Minister OF The Marine is al length about to bring
packets According to his plan, steam and can
vass are to be combined as to render each other
mutual assistance A remarkable trial of this COM
bination OF powers has been made by the steamer
Archmede, which is appropriated TO the service Of
the Chinese embassy. The Archimede which was
built in the government dock yard at Brest, and
whose engines were constructed at Creuzot, made
steam alternately, and, according TO the report
made to the Minister of the Marine, attained rate
OF going OF from seven to eight knots an hour, sa
wing more than one halt of the fuel ordinarily con-
sumed by vessels OF the same dimensions and pow
er. The results would certainly have been much
more favorable if the Archimede had been fitted
with the screw propeller instead Of the paddle
wheels
great deal is said by the Paris journals of this
morning (March y about the personalities which
took place yesterday in the Chamber Of Peers
Our contemporaries concur IN blaming such mani
festations unworthy Of the Chamber, but they
not at all agreed as to their origin. Whilst the
Debats, for instance, attacks Count Mole, and de-
cares that his remarks were wholly unjustifiabe.
M. de Salvandy having in his speech abstained
from personalities, and taken high and dignfed
ground, some Of the opposition journals pretend
that first M. Gulzot and next M. Salvandy had
provoked by gross personalities the retort of Count
Mole.
England.
We have received the London journals of Wed
nesday, March 5th, from which extracts will be
found below. 1t will be seen that an interesting
discussion took place on the resolutions Of the
committee for regulating the railway bills before
Parliament. No other business of importance took
place. After variety Of preliminary business, the
House went INTO discussion on the income tax,
which from the tone Of the speakers, Mr. Barring,
the ex Chancellor OF the Exchequer. and leading
fnanclcr OF the opposition side, having expressed
his appreciation OF the tax, appears likely to pass
without alteration.

March 6-lMPoRTATIoN OF SUoAR.-Mr TnoRNK-
LY had been informed that that day. there had ar
rived in the port of London samples Of sugar from
New Orleans, the produce Of slave labor. What
he wished to know was, whether this sugar. az
well as that imported from Louisiana and other
slave countries, would be admitted into this coun-
try upon the same terms as sugar imported from
Java and Manila?
Sir R. PkRL. said that those countries Of the
United States in which sugar was produced by
tries with which this kingdom had at present re-
ciprocity treaties With regard to the arrival an.
nounced by the honorable member, he, Sir. r.
Peel, begged to say, he had had no intimation
whatever Of it; but he would say, that at present
that sugar would not be admissible on the same
terms as sugar, the produce of the countries men.
toned by the honorable member. But he would
add, that he had no hesitation IN saying that sugar,
the produce of the United States, included under
the reciprocity treaties, would be admitted under
the proposed advantages
Mr.. THoRNKLY was very glad to hear that an
nouncenent from the right honorable baronet, az
new and very extensive trade in sugar was about
70 pc opened with the countries he had named, to
which this altered state Of the law would be of
great importance.
Mr. EwART wished to know whether it was not
