We have just received the papers and letters OF
the steamship Britannia, by the steamer Buena
Vista, Captain JARVIS, who boarded her at Halifax,
and Immediately left for this port, where she ar
rived at 4 o'clock this afternoon, with highly
important intelligence from Europe, one week later
than previously received.

The ships Prince Albert arrived at Gravesend

Trade has been slightly depressed during the
last week, owing to the renewal of political agl-
tation both in England and Ireland, and less
favorable tendency of the continental advices.
The produce markets have been less buoyant.
Holders are rather anxious to realize, and prices
have, consequently, declining tendency
There is also further decline in the value of
cotton, and the sales are limited.
the continent continues dull and unsatisfactory !;
but in some respects slight improvement isl per-
ceptible.
There is further increase in the supply of mo-
ney, and the rate of interest yet tends downward

The Chartist agitation in England, and the tenor
of the advces from the continent, are acting lnju-
riously in the demand for goods or yarns at Man
chester.
The English securities have been firm during
the week past. The market In the past two days

public notice, have commenced to make advances
upon bills of exchange and other approved secu-
rites, at the Of three per cent per annum until
the payment of the July dividends-whilst they
have made no change in their nominal rate OF dis
count which is four per cent, the private bankers
and leading brokers have for some time past dis
counted at 3 81 per cent: The step is not likely
to have any great effect upon the market, especial
ly, as from the large of money offered to them
by persons who find it difficult to employ money
proftably in trade, the broker and discounter are
likely TO compete successfully with the bank. Tie
settlement of the account took place yesterday
and to-day without any difficulty owing to some of
the parties for iise having overstocked the market
Consols for account declined, and at the close re-
established continuation between money and
time stock without difference.
