LIVERPOOL, August l6.
We have experienced very quiet week in cotton,
with further decline of fully I'd per pound in the ower
and middlmg qualities, while the other descriptions,
being scarce and in demand for export have main
tanned their position The decline is ascrbed solely
the great ensitveness of holders at the least possible
change in the prospects Of the growing crops and it
has been followed in Manchester by cessation in de-
mand for yarns and goods with diminished confidence
the part OF purchasers at the present rates, and
growing feeling that the prices of most Of produce
tons have been forced up to dangerous point
The sales OF the week estimated at 39290 bales,
Of which the trade have taken only $4,000 bales. The
American descriptions sold consist Of 10000 Upands
7aa95; IL 800 New Orleans at 7a9a; $50 Mobile and
Alabama at 7saSa and $50 Sea Island at l2tal7s.-
The official quotations are-Far Orleans st. fair Up

The total stock in this port consisted OF 473O0O les

will secure their beneficial effect TO the system in the
safest and easiest manner For instance, some ingre-
dens have to be prepared in the yacuo that is the air
is exhausted in the uensil and remains until
bnaton is effected with other ingredients, which after
wards prevents the air from acting nlurlousy upon the
medicine. Again, the proportion for each ingredient de-
ponds upon its multiplying power upon other ingredients.
For the power different vegetable pugats upon each
other is governed by similar laws that govern the
power of figures by multiplication. Nine added to
nine, makes eighteen, but nine times nine are eighty
one. SO it is with some vegetable purgatves.-
BY adding nine parts OF one ingredient, and parts
OF another ingredient together, the power is in
creased, not to eighteen but to eghtyoue. For EXAM
pie, either OF the articles to produce any purgave Ell
feet, would have to be used to the extent of egh-
ty-one grains; by combining them only eighteen
graius have to be used. Again, another ingredi-
ent is found to multiply this power again, which in a
proportion OF two grains, would have effect upon
the animal economy but which added to eighteen grains
OF a compound of two parts of nine grains, each of
two ingredients, will again multiply the power which
they have gained OF eighthyone, to one hundred and
sixty two. So again, the mixture of twenty grains
be again multiplied by an addition of two grains
to the power OF three hundred and twentytour grains
OF the original power OF the two first Ingredients
Here we have twenty two grains which purgative
contain the power equal to three hundred and twenty
tour grains of either OF the articles alone; nevertheless
also powerful alter being thus combined, are safe
IN any quantity always having beneficial effect and
in no case capable ofdong injury, OF which thousands

DIsoRDERLY PRocEEDINGs'-A short time since three
hall grown lads were brought before the Mayor charged
with rlotous and dsorderly conduct on I'd street The
gentleman who informed against the lads resides in
tenement situated the OF Leigh and I'd Streets
and he stated to the Mayor, at the time he lodged the
complaint, that the lads in question, together with
Others whose names he could not obtain were in the
habit oil congregatlng nightly at the intersection of
Leigh and I'd streets and annoying the whole neigh
bourhood by shouting, singing aud other dsordey pro-
ceedings. He remarked that he had repeatedly
quested them not to disturb his family, but his entreaes
had been received and treated with derision &c The
three lads above alluded to were brought before the
Mayor and required to fGd surety each in the Of
$50 for good behaviour They succeeded in procuring
the requisite surety and were discharged
Those who reside in the neghbourhood where these
lads had been making night hdeous" by their disor-
derby proceedings rejoced and were exceedingly glad
to learn that they had been brought to condgn."-
They fondy imagined that their peaceful SAUNDERS
would suffer interruption, for least from
the nocturnal brois of band Of graceess lads, who
devoted those hours designed by nature for repose to
other and disreputable purposes. But alas how
have these fond antcipaons been dsspated. citizen
residing ID street yesterday informed that instead
OF peace and quiet the inhabitants that street. from the
Burying Ground to Broad street, are nightly interrupted
anu alarmed by dlsofdefy proceedings IN that street
proceedings, reports be true better suited to the la
tude of the Five Points" of New ork, than the hi
thero quiet city of Richmond Is there no remedy for
this evil If the police cannot, will not enforce or
der the citizens residing that street may be COM
PEELED to take the matter in hand themselves and esta
blish regular patrols.
The awless and reckless disregard of all law and of
all decency which has for many years animated and
disgraced portion of the population OF Philadelphia
producing, average, death per week by vio-
lence--has manifested itself in Baltimore and laterly
in Washington. Though Philadelphia wears the title
OF the Murder City" and wears it justly, yet only a
lew days have elapsed since victims sacrificed to
this unhallowed spirit in the cities OF Baltimore and
Washington. Shall this fell spirit be permitted to OBJ
tain foothod in this city, Forbid it, Heaven. Rather
let us unite and crush in the germ the first evidence of
its existence.

RESIGNATION OF MI


The public generally will, and the members of the
Government especially must tee!a very sincere regret
at the determination announced by the subjoned Letter
which was received yesterday by the President:
NAT. Int
WASHINGTON, PA) Aug. &c, 1850.
My DEAR SIR: | respectfully tender to you my resp-
nation of the Department Of the Interior which. you
did me the honor of calling me.
This determination has not been reached without the
most serious and anxious delberaton.
A consciousness OF my peculiar nervous tempera-
men which too readily responds causes of excite
menl and depression, would have prompted me- in the
first place, to decline the ofer but the kind manner Of
the appointment, accompanied by the, good wishes of
the members of the Cabinet, and backed by the pres
sing urgency oil friends, made strong impression
upon me as to leave alternative but accept
briet experience OF the aruous labors and onerous
responsibilities Of the position, in connection with
siderations of private and domestic nature, which
press upon me with great force has brought the
conclusion that due observance OF duty TO my family
and myself requires my withdrawal.
In thus dssolving my brief official association with
you, permit me to say that cherish confident reliance
upon the patriotism, capabity, and worth of every
member OF the Administration and hopeful
OF its success 10 this end no effort of mine, my
tlrement, shall at any time be wanting.
May not also assure you OF my grateful appreciation
of the kindness extended to me by you and your official
associates?
With respectful and sincere regard am yours faith
fully

President OF the United States
