Boston on Wednesday morning, in less than fifteen
days from Liverpool, bringing dates to the 4th IN
slant.
The money market is very easy, and cotton remains
Parliament opens this day. and had the packet wait
ed few hours longer, it would have taken out the
Queens speech The general impression is that Ire
land will be alluded to IN soothing terms, and that
another modification of the sugar duties will be

ENGLAND, THE ZoLLvEREIN, AND AUsTRIA.-The
nature of The proceedings taken in England towards
the conclusion of commercial treaty with the Zoll
vereln, is question of interest In Germany. No
credit is given TO the idea Of revival of the negoa-
tons, because 1t is alleged that the propositions of
England tend to prevent for certain lapse of time,
any rise OF import duties IN Prussia English
ufactures, such twist and wooen and cotton cloths
On the other hand it is said that the English govern
ment hopes TO maintain concessions In the admission
of her iron articles. All these schemes are not likely
TO be realized 1t was supposed that Austria would
effect systematic reform In her tariff Of custom
house duties TO approximate II more nearly TO
that of the Zolverein; but this supposition
founded, for the Austrian government prefers aug
mentng its by indirect imports rather than
to levy direct taNeS; it considers the system it has
adopted protective of trade The Austrian Gus

AGGREGATE MEETING OF THE IRISH CATHOLICS
We understand that preparations being made by
the leading Catholics of Ireland hold an aggregate
meeting at an early PERIOD TO take into consideration
the danger with which the liberty of their clergy and
the independence of their church are threatened by
the recent legislation of the government, and the at
tempts made by Its agents to influence and overawe
the court of Rome by fabrications and threats and
promises.
TEMPERANcE.-Mr. s. c. Hall stated, at the late
meeting of the London Temperance Society, that two
years ago. he had travelled through Conlrema-l one
of the widest districts in Ireland where the people
more rude and uncutvated than in any other
part of the country, the great of them hay-
ing yet learned to speak English; he had travelled
through the widest part CT that district on Galway
far-day, and out of at least 10000 persons he met
returning from the fair, not one exhibited any symp
of intoxication; whereas, twenty years ago.
$4,000 out of 10000 would have been intoxicated
