Arrival of the Brilanaia--.7 DAYS Later


There had been but little change in CONNER
cial affairs since the departure OF the last steam
err. The cotton market had been steady during
the week, and the quotations of middng and
lower qualities show trfltng improvement
The grain markets continued dull and unse tiled,
and prices had a downward tendency. There
was but little doing on speculation, aud supplies
were fully equal 10 the demand Wheat declin-
ed during the week Id, and flour Is. Indian
offered at 6 per 4S0 lbs lower, without
increasing the business Money continued
abundant.
The cholera continued apparently on the in
crease.
IRELAND.
There has been feeble attempt to renew the
disturbances in the South of ireland, but order
was soon restored by the government troops, and
the attempt seems to have excited but little at
tenton The condition OF the country continu-
ed deplOrable. Murders and other outrages were
OF frequent occurrence, aud even the higher
classes, whose money is invested in land, were
experiencing the pinching effects OF want. Men
OF rank and title, are said to be subssting on
meal, and the garbage Of their gardens.
The argument on the writ of error brought by
Mr.. Martin has been delivered but their lord
ships deferred giving judgment.
The record OF the conviction of Mr.. w. s, o..
Brien and the other prisoners sentenced at Clon-
mel, has just been lodged in the Crowns office in
Dublin. 1t remains to be inspected by the pris-
oneI's counsel, which they will proceed to do as
speedily as possible, and then the preparation Of
the errors TO be assigned, and their engrossment
and verihcation by the conde parties, will
follow.
FRANCE.
The TVS from France is not important Po-
tica affairs remain in the same disturbed state as
noticed by the last advlces. All parties are pre-
pairing for the great Presidential struggle. The
star of Louis Napoleon evidently continues in the
ascendant, and he will probably be elected to the
Presidential chair. The contest will be between
him and Gen. Cavaignac. The latter is viewed
as the Representative OF the moderate Bepubli-
cans, whilst on the other hand, Louis Napoleon
is regarded as the instrument by which the Lee
gitimists, the Monarchists, the Imperialsts and
all those who hope to bring about reaction, with
the restoration OF splendid court in Paris, are
endeavoring to realise their wishes.
Not the slightest doubt of the Election OF Louis
Napoleon seems to be entertained in Paris. 1t is
the opinion Of many that he will have an absolute
majority OF all the votes 1t is said to have been
ascertained, that in so of the departments OF
France he will undoubtedly be at the head OF the
poll that in the remaining 26 he will beeither
on an equality with General Cavaignac, 0. very
little below him.
Great fears are entertained of a commofon in
Paris in case Prince Louis is returned.
An electioneern pamphlet is in the press, the
purpose of which is to prove that Prince Louis
Napoleon is not the son of the ex- King OF HoI-
land.
Some Of the friends of General Cavgnac have
waited upon M. de Lamartine to represe1! to
him that he has no chance of success as a cardi-
date Tor the Presidency, and to as him to with.
draw in favor of General Cavngnac. M. de
Lamartine has refused point Blank TO do so on he
| ground ''thal he would not hook himself on b

opposed the election oil Louis Napoleon even s
representative, and that it would be inconsistent
in him to support him now a candidate tor he
! Presidency.
