COmms,C iaL Summary The period that has
interviewed since the sailing of the Caledonia has
been somewhat remarkable in the cotton mar
ket. Sales to large extent have been made,
amounting to upw ards of 10000 bales. vi
this, spectators have taken no less than !, 600,
and exporters 5000, leaving for consumption
5000. Prices during the week ending Oct g.,
were an eighth higher for American and Su-
rats, and continued firm until the arrival of the
Cambria on the 18th, her advlces, confirming
the previous dscouraging accounts respecting
the failure o: the cotton crop in the United
States, had an immediate effect upon the mar
ket. The trade on that day was greatly exclt-
ed. There was great dea ofspecuIative buy
ing, and the market attained further rise
in prices, which has been maintained ever since,
and at which it closed yesterday with great
frmness Meantime the spinners are loud in
their complaints, they have not obtained any
advance in the price of yarn, and must, there
fore, at the present advanced rates, spin cotton
to loss. Several mill owners have signi6ed
their intention to reduce wages, or work short
time.
The state of trade is, of course, considerably
affected by the state of the provision market;
and the doctrine Of the iiee-tradeIs, that as the
price of the necessaries of life rises, SO in the
same proportion is production and consump-
ton Frustrated, is Just now being strkingly re-
allied
The money, like most of the produce mar
kets, is in a somewhat depressed state. The
prospects of the winter are not so cheering as
ba, ba hpf &c IN
create such serious apprehensions as many gloo-
my minded people are apt to indulge in. The
family of the croakers are very numerous.
Several causes have combined to make the
money market less buoyant. Amongst them
may be mentioned the rumor which prevails,
that government intend to raise several mil
lions by loan for the employment Of the starry
ing Irish. The fact of deiluIter to a large
amount having been named on the stock ex-
change, has shaken confidence; and finally the
accession Of Santa Anna, who, it is stated, will
repudiate the late arrangement between the
Mexican government and the British bond
holders, has given to the foreign the same feel
ing of uneasness which prevails in the home
market.
| The sugar market is inactive, and some des-
crptions a reduction has been submitted to-
/
the abundance, combined with extraneous eau
SEES, has pulled down prices. In coffee, also
previous quotations have barely been realized
West India has receded to nearly the extent OIL
I As. per cwt. East India coffee adapted to the
home market has also declined. Indeed, al
kinds are purchased with caution.
The Marriage of Louis PhilIippeS Son. A
letter from Paris, in the European Times, state:
that on the occasion fhis sons marriage with
the sister ofthe Queen ofSpain, Louis Philippe
pardoned upwards Of 100 prisoners, some Of
whom were condemned as far back as 1894
The writer says:
A telegraph despatch announces that the
wedding was duly accomplished on the 10th
inst. 1t is now, therefore, wha: in diplomatic
iargon is called w tait accompH. This is a
grave hct considering that the British Gov
eminent has not only demonstrated but protes-
ted against. The remonstrances were addressed
to the French and Spanish Governments; the
protest to the latter exclusively. A copy of the
protest was, however, left with Nj. Guizut.-
The Journal des Debats, speaking no doubt in
the name Of the Government, expresses con-
fident belief that "the communications of Great
Britain are not Of a nature to alter permanently
the relations between the two countries, to the
maintenance of which the French Government
attaches the highest price" People, however
are not quite so sanguine as the Debats, and on
the Bourse veritable panic prevails, every day
bringing lower the funds and railway shares
That England is injured by the marriage is pro-
bable; that she is offended is certain. Now, il
this part ofthe world, England has the reputa
ton ofnot allowing herself to be injured with
impunity, and even for simple offence it i,
believed that she generally finds means to take
ample vengeance. The newspapers, therefore
say that France will be obliged to make grea
sacrifices to appease England, for she cannot dc
without the English alllance-that alliance be-
ing the base of the policy of her Government
the anchor which has enabled her vessel tC
ride the storms and brave the tempests of six
teen long years. Events will prove whether
this prediction will or will not be realized Re-
allied or not, it is certain that for some time tc
come the 'tentente cordlale," must be consd
cred as existing no more; and until it be re.es
labshed, the relations OF the two Government.
will be of such very delicate nature that cir
cumstances of no great intrinsic importance
may be able to light up war.
To supply the blank left by the rupture oil
the entente cOrdidle, the French Government is
paying most diligent court to Russia and Aus.
tria. In its impetuous zeal to obhge the for,
mer, it has caused to be put into operation the
new treaty ofcommerce before submitting it to
the Chambers, which is a scandaous violation
Of the Constitution, and for which it will be
forced to demand bill of indemnify. To OBJ
tain the goodwill of the latter, it calculates on
the encouragement it threw upon the Poles on
tho occasion of the late outbreak, and on its de-
termination to follow, in reference to the revolu-
ton in Switzerland, the policy most agreeable
to Prince Metternich, even if in SO doing, it
sacrifices in some degree its own real interests.
But, notwithstanding all its concessions and
batteries, nobody, who knows anything of Eu-
ropean politics, believes, that real hearty cor
dial understanding and alliance is possible be-
