New YORK, August 3.--The steamships
Calabria, Hermann, City Of Paris and Re-
public sailed for Europe to-day, taking
S304 600 specie.
Horace Greeley has gone to Rhode Island
as the guest of Senator Sprague.
A Washington dispatch says that the
United States revenue cutter MOccasin Is
still watching the Cuban privateer Pioneer
at Newport, her guns shOtted and with
orders to link the river, should she attempt
to escape.
These orders withdraw the Moecasin
from police duty, and it is rum0red that
Cuban sympathiZers, taking advantage
thereof, have started another expedition
to Cuba under the most favorable auspices.

During the week cotton has declined
with the increased business tor export and
home consumption, and the falling off in
sales for future delivery. The sales for the
| week reached LOG, 800 bales of which 81 800
bales were for future delivery and ID 500 on
the spot. OF the spot cotton the exporters
took 924l bales, and the spinners 534y bales,
| with nothing on speculation. The naval
stores trade has been fairly active all the
week. The demand for spirits has been for
| consumption and for rOsins wholly specu-
! lative.
The Express says the result of the week
in this latter commodity has been to throw
| the sales for future delivery in the bands Of
| three parties larger than can possibly be
produced; hence a corner has ruled, and
| prices, under the stimulus, are high and
| moving upward. The control is said to
cover 10000 barrels in yard here and 1000
in Boston; also $500 in Baltimore and 5000 in
Wilmington. Export orders are TO be on the
market here and the South for about 5000
barrels, hence the prices in both commodi-
ties, common and fine rOsins, will be ad-

The EUeaing NeWs says thatex Controller
Connolly writes that he does not intend 70
take part in the soming presidential cam
paign; that he is disguised with politics
and politicians generally, and desires to
