and rising market. The cottc,i ..;arkct was
dull with "a very Slight decline.

since the departure of the Cambria, in conse-

THE NEW AMERICAN MINISTER
We understand that the Hon. Louis M'Lane
is progressing favoraby in his new position
al the Court oil ST. James. We anticipate the
best results from the honorable gentleman 5
mission 10 this country.
The continental news is without much in
teIest. The King of Saxony had opened the
Diet, in a speech which reflects his anxiety
respecting the recent occurrences connected
with the religious movement. The Prussian
government views the Able Ronge with the
same suspicion as before; and he was proven
ted from sleeping in Mannheim, when he pas

The Irish Collegiate Bill is again being re.
vived in all the intensity add virn!enca of dis.

In Railway shares speculation continues as
rife ascver. rumor that Government Is a
bout to interfere To check the mania, has been
currrent in the market Tor some DAYS past-but
upon what foundation it rests we could not

connts from the Manufacturing Districts since
the sailing OF the Cambria are encouraging and
satisfactory. At Leeds there has been an i'm

There Is very brisk demand for piece goods
at the Halifax market, and prices are consid

There Is most excellent demand.
