Acadia steamer, transcript Of which we
give below. Il viii be seen shat the ac-
counts of the cotton market are very unia-
vorabIe. Mr.. D. represents business in
the city as extremely dull, owing to the in
ierruption of the navigation OF the upper
rivers. The Acadia's account created
quite panic among the dealers in cotton
such unfavorable news having been en-
tirely unexpected.

By the arrival at Boston on the morn.
inp of tho l9'h Inst., of the steamship
Acadia, advices have been received up to
the 4th inst from Liverpool, TO the 3D. from
London, and to LIST from Paris.
There had been decline in both The
Cotton and Flour markets. la speaking
of the former, The Liverpool European
Times Of the 4th inst. has the following:
"lhe recent accounts Of the cotton
crops in America being equal, if not SUI
perior, to ihuse Of last year, combined with
the absence Of money and the gloomy
prospects in the matter of the peoples
food, have kept down The market and re.
duced prices Even the fears respecting
a rupture with America have not been
able to buoy up hohIers, who are pressing
on the market, and contributing to the
stagnaton. The price Of "iair" Ameri-
can is now within fraction Of the lowest
figure at which il has ever stood-lhe most
striking proof which can be instanced of
the severity of the existing depression"
Numerous Cabinet councils had been
held, bat the results were not known
The London Times, of the Sd Dec. says:
I" the Cabinet met once more yesterday
TO consider whether there is sufficient like
Iihood Of scarcity to call for any special
precautions. Nothing has rs Yet trans
PRED as to the result, if result there has
been"
The accounts in relation 10 the potatoe
crop, were still OF the most gloomy nature.
The general state Of trade in Manches-
ter was represented as much depressed.
The general tone of The British press
would indicate that the wnr feeling in
England, ia relation 10 the Oregon ques-
ton, partially cooled down. Some of The
journals still clustered good deal, but an
impression appears to obtain with many Of
them that the majority Of the inhabitants
care but little, one way or the other, about
Oregon, or how the affair is settled, The
European Times snys as much as this
when il remarks as follow;
"Wehave before stated, and the repe-
tiion at this time is almost superfluous
that, as regards England, people her care
| little in what way the Oregon dispute may
be patched up; the value Of territory is
hardly ruted beyond pins fee, and right
glad would be the thinking, intelligent por-
ton Of the country, if The 10Th parallel Of
latitude would hit the views and the taste

on to say that the Preparations at the diff

The same incessant energy in surveying
the coast and the steam navy was in pro.
gress and indicated " black cloud" some
where.
The Railway panic had not in the least
subsidized. Failures continued, and the
greatest distress still hung over thousands
who had embarked in spcculntions.

scale, and declares himself an uncondi-
lional repeater. The Liverpool Times
OF The 4th, in speaking Of this letter, re.
marks:
"Many regard it as the doom Of the
existing ministry; il is certainly the doom
of the corn laws. There is hearty
frankness about the letter which wins re-
gard and conciIiates respect"
The news from the Continent is Of In
tie importance. In Algiers affairs remain
in nearly the same condition. The Paris
papers. or at least a portion of them, are
