ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMER CAMBRIA.

[rRoM oun DAILY PAPER MosDArl
Our Baltimore correspondent advises US, through
the Magnetic Telegraph, of the arrival of the steam
err Cambria at Boston. She brings sixteen days
later news from Europe.
The markets for breadstufs in Liverpool and
London have become very much depressed since
the departure of the Sarah Sands
The imports of flour and grain were very large,
and the supply of flour in Liverpool on the lst
instant was estimated at four hundred and fifty to five
hundred thousand barrels. There was cores
pondng supply of grain in London
Flour has declined about four shngs per barrel
from the highest point on the last intelligence. The
decline in wheat is four to five shillings per quar-
ter of eight bushels. Indian corn declined four
shngs per quarter, eight bushels. The provi-
sion market was steady at former prices. Sugar
had advanced
Cotton had declined an average of one-eighth of
a penny per pound, and again rallied; but, at the
time Of the departure OF the steamer, again
considered declining. Large sales.
The navigation laws have been suspended and
the duties RENTED. This will prevent so great a
decline in breadstuffs, and may cause freghts to
recede.
Great distress and sickness prevailed in Ireland,
Scotland, England, and over the Continent
Parliament is considering motion for the sus-
pension of duty on sugars.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL has introduced scheme for
the relief Of Ireland, of which we find the follow
ing notice:
Lord JoBS RUSSELL has introduced into Parliament bill
for the relief and improvement of Ireland The main provisions
Of which Money be advanced by Government for the
purchase of seed crops loans be made to the landlords for
the Improvement Of lands the lands to be bought by
Government fixed rates it the landlords will neither sell

at a valuation million sterling to be appropriated for the
reclamation of lands drainage to be extensively carried
out lands purchased by Government to be resod in small
lois yeoman proprietary for temporary relief to be created
poor laws be enacted committees to be appointed to
distribute money and food outdoor relief recommended to

Ireland proposed is seven millions pounds at least
The Pope has contributed one thousand crowns
