croD farms out bad in helond as
weHas other parts Of Europe.
The steamship Caledonia, Capt. T..
G.. Lott, was tclegraphed on Monday
morning off Boston, and arrived at .
o'clock at her wharf, amid dense log
By her we have Liverpool and Lon
don papers TO the day Of sailing-Sun-
day, October ID
To the officers Of the steamer Ore
gon we are under lasting obligations,
for putting our news, with one Of our
associates, through in so short time.
The Oregon had TO round Point Judith
in one of the severest nights known
for long time, as the passengers can
testify. Notwithstanding all this she
arrived first with the news, passing
the Norwich line, which left Boston
bali an hour earlier, about Sands Point
and the S,onington about ten miles far
Their off The 'old salts at Newport
seemed to consider the trip as impos-
sble. Capt. st. John had too much
confidence in his boat, and the boat
was too generous to deceive him. She
behaved admirably. The other boats
had great difficulties TO overcome
They made good time. The Oregon
averaged 20 miles an hour from Prov
idencc 10 this city.
The Caledonia brought lO7 passen-
gers from Liverpool to Boston. She
had eight from Liverpool to Halifax,
and 1 from Halifax tor Boston.
The carpenter Of the Caledonia was
drowned on the 18th in the river Mer-
sey.
The Caledonia passed the Hibernia
on Sunday at noon, out twenty hours,
twenty miles west Of Seal Island, 800
miles from Boston.
The Brittania, Capt. Hewitt, arrived
out on the fourteenth, in thirteen days
fror, Bostoa.
The steamer Unicorn is sold, to run
between Halifax and ST. Johns, New
Foundland.
The state Of trade in the manuiac-
turing districts does not certainly give
an indication of the existing feeling in
the cotton market. The Yarn market
is especially dull. Large quantities
had been purchased for expectation to
Germany. The market for goods in
Manchester and the neighborhood is
also less active, and prices have rece-
ded little-they are easier,in the par
lance Of the trade. The wooden trade
in the Yorkshire districts has also di-
mnished somewhat in activity, but
still maintains healthy appearance.
The American provision trade flour
ishes. The stock of beef, pork. and
cheese, is light; and the state OF things
in Ireland will have a tendency not
only to improve prices, but TO lessen
competition.
The price Of corn is rising rapidly.
The weather has been wretched, and
large patches Of uncut grain are eX'
posed TO the element, in the north OF
England and in Scotland. Damp
corn enhances the price Of fine wheat,
and those who hold the latter calculate
on a further rise. The money market
shows symptoms of wavering, consuls
have declined one per cent, and the
value Of money is higher. The iron
trade is brisk, and prices advancing
The produce market. (sugar, rum, mo-
lasses. wool and coiiee,) is firm with
slight advances in some articles.
In the share market, says Wilmer &
Smith, the work of speculation goes
bravely on. The world has never wit
messed any thing so reckless and bare
faced ms the system of swindling and
roguery on the one hand, and the i'm
beetle gullibiity of the other, that
stares one in the face at every turn
Where or when it will stop passes COM
prehension.
The steam packet Massachusetts
sailed on her return on the 18Th, with
SO cabin and l0i steerage passengers.
The dock yards and naval arsenals
Of England exhibit extraordinary ac-
tivity. In many of the out ports
steam frigates of the largest class have
been ordered by the government, to be
ready by fixed period. according to the
contracts, and the builders have been
bound down in heavy penalties TO have
them fit for sea at the required time
Oregon is pointed at by certain politi-
clans as the solution of the mystery.
