The Unicorn arrived at Boston on Friday at-
ternoon, in 90 days from Liverpool. She en-
countered heavy winds and large fields of ice;
and was detained "a hours at Halifax. She
brings dates to the 18th ult. We are indebted
to the New York Herald, Sun and Times, and
the Philadelphia U. S. Gazette, Inquirer, Sun,
Evening News, and Ledger for the intelli-
gence.
The Oregon question was the subject of de-
bate in Parliament on the 18th, and report of
the discussion which ensued will be found in
another column.
The speech of Lord aberdeen is decided
enough, though free from anything like vio-
lence or bravado. As to the condition in
which the negotiations between the two coun-
tries now are, the Foreign Secretary voucl-
safes no new light, alleging as his reasons, that
the public interests would suffer by the produc-
ton of all the papers,
The Cotton Market has rallied but little I'M
der the effects of the beligerent news from
America, even aided by the now acknowledged
fact that the yield of the crop will fall consi-
deraby short of previous estimates. The price
of New Orleans ;and Georgia bowed is 8 9-8.
The last week closed with some frmness, and
the same feeling has prevailed during the pre-
sent week, but prices have undergone little i'm
provement, although they have an upward ten
dency Since Friday the sales have amounted
to $4,000 bales.
The Grocery markets present little in the
way Of novelty. The price of Sugar has
slightly advanced, and Coffee has declined 3D.
to Is per cwt. Bengal Rice has receded Is,
and Carolina IS Cd per cwt.
| The Wool market is flat both for English
aud Colonial; but the small stock in the farmers
hands render the market firm.
The Metal market is inactive, and lower
prices have been accepted. Scotch Pig zoos to
Hos Staffordshire Pig so TO 95s. Tin is dull
but cheaper. Copper and Lead firm. In Stee
little doing, Quicksilver is held at As Cd.
In the Provision trade there has not beer
much activity. Irish Butter is cheaper for low
and midling kinds, and Ouch has improved
owing to its scarcity, IS TO is per cwt. In A
mcrican, the business had been nominal.
