FIGHTING.

at New York, we are placed in possession Of
highly important intelligence from Europe, of
later date by one week. than we had pre-.
viously received. Its details are extremely
interesting and important in q commercial,
political, and social point of view, as will be
seen by the extracts which we publish be.
low.
The latest accounts from Liverpool and
London are of the l4h inst. noon.
The news from France is very important.
An order had been received at Boulogne,
from Paris to put the whole line of coast in
a state of defence, and to mount guns on the
detached forts, which are built q little way
out at sea. The gates of the upper town are
also to be repaired and fortified. This looks
like preparation for war.
The triumph of the liberal party is COM
plete, and Louis Blar; and Albert have reti.
red.
Several bloody conflicts have taken place
between the Poles and Prussians.
One of the most important points Of this
news is the declaration of war by Pope Plus
the Ninth, against Austria, and that at the
last accounts the situation of the Austrian
army in Italy was very petilous. After this,
';he electric telegraph reported the imprison.
ment of the Pope for backing out Of the war.
Sertcus ekirmishes have taken place be-
tween the Hungarians and the Jews
The Danes, it appears, have completely
blockaded the German ports.
There is nothing important from Ireland
Lord Palmerston has officially announced,
under date Foreign office, May 9th, the Da.
nish blockade of Ste,tin, Halso,md, Nor,uch,
and Wismar, from the Cd Pillau and Dant.

There had Eeen decline in the mddling
and lower grades Of cotton of one-eighth of a
penny per pound
The corn market was inactive, end prices
'feebly supported. There had been decline
in flour.
The blockade by the Danes, of the north
ern ports of Germany, in some measure in
terrrpted the improvement visible the previ-
Gus week in the manufacturing districts, for
under present circumstances, the trade of
Germany is completely suspended. There
IS, however, reason to hope that the media.
tion of England will soon put q stop to hostili-
sizes, and restore the Intercourse with the
northern ports.
The war i'll Italy also operates disadvanta-
geously, for although France and England
-fe eager 10 efrer their good officers, there is
complication of circumstances which render
conjecture as to the result difficult
Notwithstanding these drawbacks, trade
continues to improve. The season promises
another abundant harvest, and should this
expectation be realized, the prices of bread
stufis are not likely to advance, fer another
year at least.
In France the state of trade has also inn
proved, and the temporary Chancellor Of the
Exchequer anticipates surplus revenue this
year. There is no doubt that on his acces-
sion to office, the financial state of the coun-
try was deplorable.
