ARRIVAL OF THE HIBERNIA.
The British mail steamer Hibefnia, Capt
ain Rylie, arrived a Boston on the morn
ing of the 9th inst, bringing London papers
of the 18th and Liverpool Of the 10Th ult
The HIbernia was nearly II days on hei
passage, including the detention at Halifax
The news is interesting, although there il
little (save the commercial intelligence
which will be found in its proper place, } thai
Immediately concerns US. The last intelli-
gence from this side of the water, in relation
to the annexation of Texas, had by some
strange process ofreasoning, been so CON
strued as to lead TO the belief in England
that the people of Texas were not so much
enamoured Of annexation as the friends O
the project in the United States expected OIL
desired. In coming TO this sage conclusion
the wish must have been father TO the thought
with the English people. Wilmer and
Smiths Times, which does not believe one
half Of the story about Texan coyness anC
indifference TO the alliance matrimonial, af
fords proof that We have guessed truly
That paper, speaking of the light in which
the adVices above referred to wore view ed
in England. says:
This intelligence has not proved unpala>
table to the popular taste on this side of the
water. 1t has excited some surprise, be
cause it was unlocked for. Every one re-
arded the question as virtually settled wher
Congress adopted the annexation, aud PEG
pie resigned themselves calmly to what they
could not prevent. This hiatus has awak'
ened fresh hope in the public mind tina
Texas will continue independent, and that
by repudiatng the alliance with the leVia
than Republic, it may afford, irrespective o
the United States, supply cotton for the
English manufacturer. The cotton spinne
and abolilionist look alike With hope to Tex
as, and they fix their faith ia Presiden
Jones.
The Oregon question has attrae. u much
attention in England since the Earlof Aber
deem and Sir Robert Peel referred to it il
Parliament, but another topic had been start
ed, that, for the nonce, has driven al
thought of Oregon from the public mind

LIVERPOOL CLASSIFICATION
LIVERPOOL MARKETS..

REPORT FOR THE WEEK ENDING APRIL II.
From the Circular Of Messrs Geo. Holt & Co..
CoTTON.-lt will be remembered, that in our
Circular of last Friday we notice the detention by
Government of the Transatlantic Seamer-Cale-
donia. She sailed on the following evening" bear
ing the debates in the House Of Commons on the
Oregon question Fer moment our market was
effected in an upward direction BY those discus
sOne. and the pointed Importance which had been
given 10 them, by expressly retaining the steamer
for their conveyance. On the spur Of the moment
some little business was done at Id, and possibly
in some instances at I'D advance; but since Tues
day we have been gradually sinking into a quiet
er and quieter state, until find ourselves at the
close of the week barely supporting the currency
OF FRIDAY last. 1t must not be inferred however
that this immediate giving way in price is to be
attributed TO our undervaueing the relations be-
tween this country and the United States, mas,
much as no community can be more impressed
with the importance of maintaining the most per-
feet concord. Ths reason is rather to be found
in the latest advices from America, showing a
somewhat greater amount of receipts of Cotton
at the shipping ports than had been generally
recKoned upon; so that our market is srll under
the regulating influence OF quantity. Il cannon
be denied. however, that to some extent a new
element of value is being introduced into the
question, By what is now taking place with regard
TO Oregon, 700 American have been taken on
speculation; and $3.50 American, 300 Pernam.
and $50 Surat for export.-The number of sales
amount TO 1880 bales.
From the Circular of the United Brokers0
When the discussion which took place in the
House of Commons on the subject Of onr relations
with the United States was known here on Satur.
Gay. the demand became very animated, and a
large business was done in American descriptions
at an advance Of fully I'D per Id. Since Tuesday
when accounts were received Of continued large
receipts in the American ports, there has been
less disposition to purchase, and the market has
closed heavily at the quotations Of Friday last.
Spectators have taken 300 American; and tx
porters $3.50 American, 800 Pernams, and $50
Surat The sales of the week amount to about
$3.50 bales.

COM MERCIAL.
From The n. o. Iroplc d MAY II, 1874.

From the N. .. IruPlc u May IL, l845
CoTroN-Our review Of last Wednesday morn
ing left the Cotton market WITH pretty lar de-
mand prevailing, particularly for Louisianas and
MlssIssippis, though with only a moderate busi-
ness going forward in consequence 0i the rates
which were generally asked being rather above
the views OF buyers Owing TO this cause, and
partly on account OF the non-arriVa Of the steam
er HIbernla's advices, which were past due, the
market on Wednesday maintained a very ouiei
appearance. and the sales amounted TO only about
1000 bales, at unchanged prices. -Thnrsday'r
mail brought us adVlces from LiVerpoel the 9Th
and from Havre to the 10th April, per steamer
Hibernia at Boston. 1t appears that the specula-
tive demand for Cotton al Liverpool, which pre-
vailed al the date of our previous adVices and
which grew cut of the discussion on the Oregon
question, had su bsided, land that this circumstances
in con junction with the less encouraging state
Of trade at Manchester, and the increased esti-
mates of the Cotton crop Of this country, had
caused the market to become quite heavy, with a
partial decline of 3D.. in prices In the Havre Cot.
ton market there had been great want of ANNA.
lon, the business having been restricted to the
mere wants OF consumption, and prices were rath
er dropping. Although these accounts are by NJ
means encouraging, they are not as unfavurable
perhaps, as many supposed they would be, ant
hence, 80 far from having caused any depression
in this market, they have the contrary operate,
rather benehcially, the demand on Thursday, al
ter their reception, having been quite active, thu
sales reaching to 500 bales, and at prices il
most instances fully an eighth of cent higher
than were before current. Yesterday the demane
was toierably fair, and the market maintained its
frmnesS, but the business of the day did mol
amount to more than 200 bales, owing in great
measure TO the limited quantity of Louisiana and
Mississippi cottons offering, these descriptions be-
ing most in request. The improvement in prices
as noticed above has been on qualities below Fair,
in which nearly all of the business has been trans
acted, and we have altered our quotations accord
lngy English buyers have, as usuu, been the
largest operators. This weeks business amounts
to 1900 bales, of which 9,4oO bales were sold
during the past three days.
