The News.
Apart from the commercial news received by the
Hum oldt and Canada, and specially referred to in
another paragraph, the most important and inter
estng piece of intelligence to this country, is the
Antagonistic feeling with which the English journals
regard the prospective occurrence of any serious
collision between Spain and this govesamsnt, in re-
htion to the island of Cuba, and the aseemp. made
by them to induce Louis Napoleon to identify him
self with the Spanish side of the question. The
London Tunes, in article which we republish
deprecates the movements taking place in this coun
try with an eye to Che independence of Cuba, endea-
vors to defend the conduct Of the Captain General
and finally INDUCES in a menace, that any hostile
movement on the part of our government would in
evitably embroil it in a war with the m aritme
powers Of Europe, and would prove to be the great
est act of madness Of which this republic could be
guilty 1t ignores the views OF the British govern
ment in the matter, but holds up Louis Napoleon to
our eyes as the great bugbear whose prowess we
must tremble at. Now, the object and drift of this
is quite apparent. England, while she would regard
With the most exasperated spirit interference in
the affairs of Cuba, dare not for too obvi-
oRs to need recital, declare herself the undsgused
ally of Spain against US. Her interests would CO.
cree her to be neutral in the QUARREL and therefore
she would endeayor to incite Louis Napoleon to
epousc the side to which her sympathies lean. But
the attempt is certainly futile Louis Nspo-
leon could never think of engaging in fer the
mere purpose of strengthening the hands Of the
royal family of Spain, solacing and adding to the
power Of the Bourbon family, and thereby strength
ening the legitimist party in France, He is too
polite and circumspect to assume attitude Of
hostility to the only great and real republic on the
earth, with which the sympathies Of the French
people are so closely entWined, as he knows that
such Of policy would irretrievably subvert
his government, AZ produce a revolution in France
which would again embroil Europe in a general
war. In this game he would be at once playing
into the hands Of the revolutionary party at home,
and the autocrats Of central Europe, and Louis Ma
poleon has shown too much shtegdness already to
permit the supposition Of his making such faur
pas. The menaces Of the Times We can afford to
contemn, but the honor of our flag, aud the rights
Of our citizens, we are bound, at all hazards, to
guard and uphold.
II will be perceived that the foreign news has
had favorable influence on our produce markets
Three thousand bales of cotton sold yesterday at
advance Of ore eighth C. cent Flour advanced
per bushel each Pork, also, advance. twenty-five
and fifty cents per barrel. Sugars were Likewise
in good demand, especially for the cheaper qualities,
which are wanted fer refining. The indications
now are that England will require larger supply Of
b,eods.uffs than was at first supposed The stocks
Of cotton in Liverpool and Havfe were hight, ana
the sales for the week prior to the saAing of the
Canada were among the largest ever made at this
season Of the year With large shipments of A ne
rican produce, sterling exchange must continue to
droop, and it is within the bounds Of probability
that Europe may again send us specie to settle
balances.
