BY the arrival Of the ship Liverpool, Capt.

uliimo.
There is great excitement in England,
from apprehensions of war on the Oregon
question.
In cotton the demand has been good, and
the previous prices have been fully sustained,
and in some instances an advance Of l-Sd was
established.
The Corn Market is still dull, and prices
nominal.
Bonded Flour could be had at 27s. for Phil
adeIphia. and 29s. for Western Canal.
The journals are generally pacific. and ex-
press an earnest desire for peace with the U.

The London Sunday Times Of Feb. 8, in
commenting on the commercial policy Of Eng
land says, that the free trade propositions Of
Sir Robert Peel TO be submitted next day will
be highly interesting.
THe monopoiists do not present the strong
phalanx which they did; but there is still
disposition to fight. 1t is supposed that Sir
Robert Peel will have majority Of fifty.
The Sunday Times considers, with all the
free traders voting with him, he could not
have that majority, but there will be major
ity probably OF 90.
In the House of Lords the monopolists were
the strongest, and in the house the Times
thinks the measure will be defeated!
A dissolution Of Parliamen, will follow!
In the new house, the majority in favor of
repeal will be doubled. The Lords will not
resist second time, and it will pass.
Many of the proxies Withdrawn from the
Duke Of Wellington, on the first blush Of the
new ministerial arrangement, had been return
ed to him.
No doubt is entertained, thatfour freetraders
wonld, in the event IF dissolution Of ParIa.
ment, be returned from London. OF these, it
is thought Mr.. Golden would be one.
In Parliament, Railway matters have engag-
ed almost exclusive attention.

| liverpool Corn Market, Feb. 7th.-The mar.
ket for free grain continues in depressed

settled question of the corn laws. Few trans
