HuuluS ltS way into general circulation, Inc
result of greater ease in the Money market is
visible in easier discounts. When the funds
arising from railway scrip have been distri-
outed, every one in business will feel the
benefit, and produce of every kind will doubt
less improve in value.
! Many of the shipowners and masters enga.
ged in the United States, and, more especial
ly, in the New York trade, are at issue with
the Commissioners of Emigration with regard
to the stringency of Lloyd's Registry Book in
the matter of vessels carrying great numbers
OF Storage passengers. The object of the
Commissioners is undoubtedly excellent THAT
OF securing for the emigrant perfectly safe
conveyance, in which the requirements for
comfort and health are properly carried out
But the subject, it is understood, will shortly
engage the attention CT the House of Com
mons.
The cotton market sustains the improved
feeling that rules when the last steamer sail
ed. The ascertained deficiency in the last
crops the primary cause of the firmness.-
The sales during the week exceed $4,000
bales, about 10000 of which have been for
export and on speculation leaving very re-
spectacle daily average for the trade. The
imports, during the last week have been light,
hardly exceeding 8 600 bales, Up to the pre-
sent time the imports are $4,000 bales below
those of the corresponding period last year.
Yesterday the sales exceeded 5000 bales, at
firm prices.
Large quantities of American provisions
find their way to this country by almost every
arrival. With an anticipated scarcity ofbread
stufts, the records of the barrels of -four and Of
beef which cross the Atlantic at the present
time are duly paraded in the columns of the
daIlv They n0inf q moral OF a pratIfy-
ing character; for when the restrictions which
have hitherto impeded that branch of COM
merce are removed-as removed they will be
1t is impossible to guage the extent to which
the provision trade between England and
America will be carried. At present, there
are upwards of 100000 barrels Of -four under
lock in Liverpool, all of which will be remov
ed at the low duty when the Corn bill becomes
law
The Corn trade remains in very unsatis-
factory state. Operations are SUSPENDED
The trade merely supply their immediate
wants, and this lethargy will continue until the
fate of the Corn Bill is decided by the House
of Lords. The best informed public men are
sanguine that the Peers will pass the bill; and
a personal friend of our own, popular men,
Der of the Peoples House, writing last night,
says-"Fhe opinion sti gains ground that
PEEPS measures Will pass through their remain
ing stages without the country being put to
the agony of dissolution. We hear a disso-
luton spoken of at the clubs, but it proceeds
from those who are inimical to the Free.trade
principle. Every revolving day convinces me
that the consummaton of our triumph is at
hand. You may safely announce this TO your
American readers as fact" The writer has
the entree of the best political society in Lon
don, and we rely with the greater confidence
on his statement as we have been previously
indebted for valuable information and sug-
gestions from the same and uneXceptonabe
source.
The accounts which came to hand from America
recently had visible effect the price of the Eng
lsh securities. The settlement of the Oregon the
basis of the 49h parallel continues to be regarded As
thing that must be-as fair settlement, to which the
leading statesmen on both sides of the Atlantic will
combine to give their aid. The interminable discus
sions the subject in the Senate beal striking afin
ity TO the dreary waste of words in the English House
of Commons OH the Coercion and the Corn Bills
The commercial accounts from India, (which came to
hand yesterday, show an improved feeling in that dis
tant land Peace is restored, and commerce the hand
maid of peace will participate in the general prosper
ity. summary of the political and the commercial
intelligence will be found in another column.
The Canadian Timber trade has painfully eXperien-
ced the effects resulting from the dispute amongst the
masters and the operative builders. Business, in con
sequence ofhe stagnaton has been suspended land the
review OF the last month in this branch is dreary
monotory
The English Funds have risen shade in conse-
quence Of the greater abundance money, and upon
the whole, the commercial prospects of the last are
encouraging than those of the previous fortnight
IRELAND. The accounts from Ireland
are gloomy, and every day adds to the misery
of the people in that unfortunate country.
The accounts from various parts of the coun-
try give painful evidence of the existing dis
tress. Many of the districts are suffering the
horrors of famine, and fever is on the increase.
The Ballinasloe Advertiser states that the dis
trict hospital in that town is very crowded.
There are many fever cases. The Galway
Mercury gives an account of relief meeting
in that district, where the sum subscribed was
totally inadequate to the emergency of the
evil. In Mallow fears of an outbreak have
been general In Clogheen, oatmeal and course
flour had been distributed to above 900 starv-
ing creatures. In Waterford the respectable
sum of $3.50 had been subscribed in one day,
and other sums had since been added.
In Tralee money had been raised and provi-
sions distributed to the furnishing populace.-l
The accounts from the districts on the south
and southwestern districts are nearly uniform
in their statements of the restitution, and ap-
prehensive for the continuance of peace
BELGIUM. Brussels, April 27.-After many
choppings and changngs, a cabinet was con-
structed, with M. Theirs at its head. 1t is
still in existence, but from the warm hostility
it encounters in the chambers, is not destined
to live long-at least SO most people think
The questions on which parties are divided are
so exclusively domestic, that it is not worth
while mentioning them. There have been
some disturbances at Client, and at Brussels,
and inhammatory pamphlets have been dis
tributed, exciting the people to revolt. Seve-
raj arrests have been made, and all is now tram
quill.
GERMANY. Berlin, April 90. tits again
very positively asserted that the long promised
constitution is, at last, about to be conceded
What is certain, is, that there has been SOL
