The excitement regarding the fishery difficulty

There was an animated demand for cotton at

In the corn market there had been much excite
ment. The weather having continued most unpro-
piiious for the harvest, general and further adj
vance in prices had taken place, English wheat
having risen 3s. per quarter the prices of the
last week. Foreign wheat was held very firmly,
and similar advance realized. Oats advanced Cd.
per quarter; American -four, Is. to 2s per barrel;
English -four, Is. Sd. per sack. Indian corn was
also held for higher terms; floating cargoes 2s. to
3s per quarter higher.
The English funds had fuctuated considerably,
and the tendency generally of stocks and shares
was towards depression, owing to the harvest
prospects.

FoURIERIsM IN THE UNITED sTATEs-HoRAcE
GREELEY SERMoS.-We have sent reporter to tho
Fourierite Phalanx, in New Jersey, who has given a
full description of it, and also report Of the very
funny lecture Of Horace Greeley to the brethren 1t
appears from the confession of the apostle and pro-
phet Of the system in these latter days, that it ha
failed in every instance, except in the Of the
North American Phalanx, and that even til at
is still but an experiment. Yet, by process of
reasoning peculiar to the diosyncracy Of sphiloso.
pher he arrives from these premises at the curious
conclusion that socialism is fixed fact. He contends
that its failure is the best proofofits ultimate success,
and that therefore he hopes it will fail everywhere.
The failures are all sources encouragement. Such
is the paradoxcal strain in which he addresses the
Phalanx. He need not be under any apprehension
Of the system failing everywhere. 1t will always
fail from the cause that has failed from here
and that is idleness. These philosophers do not
want to work-if they did, they would never come
to the Phalnnx. But they want to talk about
working, and they do talk SO much about it. and
all other subjects in philosophy and religion, that
they have no time or inclination for labor. They
desire To be philosophers, and not workers,

MIR. WEBsTER's Position BEYOND DOUBT
We find in the Springfield Republican, a thorough
going whig paper, the following observations on Mr..
Webster's POSITION
Mr. Banks the coalition spea, of the Massachusetts,
House of Representatives has just returned from visit
to Washington and he says that while there, Mr.. Web
ter told him that he should prefer the electoral
vote Of Massachusetts given to General Pierce rather
than to General Scott That Mr. Banks says this there
can be no aoubt-we have accumulatvc public and pri
vatc testimony to this fact The conclusion is that Mr.
Banks either tells fasehood Mr.. Webster prefers
Gen Pierce's election to that of Gen. Scott.
We have no heart to make comment upon this. We
will not treat il fact that Mr. Webster deserts the
wing party. until have the most ample and corrobora-
tive evidence Of it, Our TO the contrary have
been based upon his whole past fethe unvarying de-
caraton OF his political action and speeches through for
~ of public life We are 10th to believe that any
disappointment however great can induce Mr.. Webster,
at this time Of life to turn his back upon the record so
markedly written his whole character and expert
Ii must the emotion that records the conyc.
ton will be deeper than yexation anger possibly
, an be.
Ofthis there can be no doubt What will the
socialist and abolition journals of this city say
now!

THE SENATE AND THE NEW NOMINATIONS =
Among the influx of new nominations sent by the
President to the Senate for confirmation, we are
happy to observe that that body has exhibited
some show Of independence and justice, both in re.
jecting and postponing some Objectionable nomina.
tons, and in confirming such as were Of proper
character. There is no doubt of the honesty and
good intentions Of President Fillmore. He has al
ways been q fair and honorable man in public and
in private life. But during the last twelve or ff-
teen months he has been surrounded by as unprin.
cipled q set of iatterers and fawners-sycophant
merely for the sake of oficeas ever his predeces-
sor in the Same line of extempore Presidents Was
We mean Captain Tyler, Of blessed memory. These
Office seekers have protested invarable regard for
the claims of Mr. Fillmore to re election up to the
Baltimore wing nomination; but their motives are
now beginning to work out, in the scramble they
have engaged in after the few remaining offices
which are yet to be dealt out to them.
