The Senate of Hamburg has just published a third list of subscriptions towards the reliet of the sufter- ers from the late fire.

Loxpow Money Manxer, July 4.—Public securities re- ain ia much the same state as the market closed on Sa- rday. There has been no sensible pressure on the discount market to meet the commercial bills that reach maturity to-day, and although it is yet too bait to speak peremptorily on the subject, little difficulty will be expe- rienced in providing for them.

Tobacco.— There was some little improvement in the demand towardsthe close of last week, but it has not con- tinued, and the market is again dull ; the sales so far this month reach 430 hhds, of which 120 were for export, 60 for Ireland, 40 for Scotland, 25 to speculators, aed the ree mainder to'the trade.

Exporters have been con- stantly on the look out, their purchase amounting to 2000 American, 30 Brazil and 120 Surat. Speculators have bought only to a moderate extent, they not having taken more than 1400 American. The market has been abun- | dantly supplied, especially with the common and mid- | dling qualities of American descriptions, and for which rices are barely supported. Holders show no disposition Rowever to press sales, there being some confidence in the maintenance of present rates from the fact, that the stock of American cotton now in the port is 40,000 bags less than were held at the corresponding period of las* year. ‘The import of the week amounts to 44,664 bags. Fauvay, July 1.—The Cotton market has been without animation throughout the week, but the sales amount to | 27,450 bags of all kinds. Exporters have been constantly on the look out, and have taken 1400 American and 540 Surat, Specu e been supine, their puraha- ses not exceeding 1500 American. ° ‘The trade have tak more than their sual weekly supply, although the Yur and Goods market last St it out the least improvement.

Last month there were forwarded into the country unsold 3900 American, 150 Bahia, aud 300 Surat. ‘There have been declared for public sale next Friday, 1050 Sea Island, and 100 Stained. ‘The import of the week amounts -o 44,293 bags. To-day there has been rather a large attendance of the trade, and pretty nearly 5000 bags have been disposed of at the rates current during the week. ‘Tus Tra Peape-—The China news has nolfhad any particular effet on the London tea market, though it servesto confirm the steadiness that has characterised it for some time past. The business done lately solely by ate contract has been to a very fair extent, and the de- ‘cries last month were highhy satisfactory. The letters from China will not reach till next week. On the 80th ult, the stock of teain London was 32,167,785 Ibs. and at the corresponding date of last year 27,046, 221 lbs. In addition to the stock now held about 2,300,000 Ibs. have been received by three or four vessels that have come in. The stock of Congou constitutes 21,827,000 lbs. of the to- tal quantity on hand. ‘The deliveries this year have been 17,515,837 Ibs, or an increase over those to the corresponding’ period in 1841, of nearly 600.000 Ibs. The imports have greatly increased. being 19,869,196 Ibs. this year, without the 2,300,000 Ibs. rbove specified, against only’ 5,398,779 los. to the end of June last vear, ‘Our exports of the leaf have rather fallen off thts year, but the home consumption from London has risen from 11,351,145 Ibs. to 12,055,837 Ibs. These statis- tics at the present time are of some value. Maxcuester, June 25.—Our cloth market was never so depressed as it has been this week, and men of all shades in politics seem to think that things are likely to grow even worse than they now are, indeed, there does not appear te be ‘the smallest hope from any quarter; and strange to say, speculation is altogether out of question. Twist is saleable to a fair extent, buyer. 'wo mills belonging to Mr. Richard Roberts, Manches- ter, will cease working this aay (Saturday.) The very extensive mills of Messrs. Stirli ing and Becton, in whie it is said two thousand hands have been employed have not been working since last Saturday. Another mill, and an extensive one, belonging toa company, wil either totally close to-day or next Saturday, or the greatest part of the machinery will stand still. “The Oxford Road Twist Co., will stop four hundred looms thisday, Messrs. Sharp, Ro- berts and Co., the well known and very celebrated loco- motive engineers, gave notice a few days ago, it is said, to two or three hundred mechanics that uuless some orders were received before to-day, they would, this andthe ceeding week, be discharged, The hands that will thu be thrown out of work, with those dependent upon such as are heads of families, cannot be less than eight thoi sand—a frightful number to add to the list of the unem- ployed. On the market days in 1836—37 there were brought for sale inthe Manchester Cattle Market 1,405 head of cattle. On Wednesday last only 361 head of cattle were exhibited tor sale. Lees, Saturday.—The markets at Leeds, during the past week, have presented no new features. The demand ior fine goods continued limited, the principal cloths sold being heavy low priced fabrics. In Petersham cloths ut again prices are in favor of the there is not quite so much doing as of late. Someof the merchants’ warehouses appear to be pretty thronged. The new wool that has to come to hand appears to be of a bet- ter quality and somewhat cheaper than the remains of the former clip. In this town out.door relief is now given to id more persons than was the case two years PaveLey.—The manufacturing department conti vi languid state. At this season of the year, even in ordinary circumstances, and, on account, were it not for the large number of unemployed hands, would not excite much uneasiness. We are at present in che transition state between the spring and autumn trade, and the preparations for the latter, though essing. are scarcely forward enough to admit of taking on new weavers. A few ofthe principal houses—indeed there arr aow but few Sey, altegether—have been enga- ging hands for the last eight or ten days, but it is toa small extent, and the number engaged will not much exceed the number thrownffrom kind of werk now over for a season. During the present month there is a prospect by several houses of taking on a considerable number of hands, in preparation for the demand for goods usually made from August onwards, and this prospect is rather brightened b: the circumstance that the stock of goods, both in the han of manufacturers and merchants, is small. Hayne, June 30.—Cottons—Considerable actiyjty has continued to pervade our market throughout the Whole of the week, and the transactions have been on a still more restricted scale, than noticed at the close of our preceding circular. The further addition to our stock has contri- buted in some degreeto the present depression, and al- though prices had not hitherto undergone any decided ‘unfavorable change, the demand has been of such a limit- ed nature, that holders, in order to realize, have at lust heen obliged to yield to a decline of £2a8 on ordinary and inferior, and f.1 on middling United States descriptions. Sut since the receipt of advices to 7th inst. from the other side of the Atlantic, which reached us last Saturday by ‘he British Queen steamer, rather more firmness has Beak exhibited, as the shipping season is now nearly brought oaclose, and it seems to be generally admitted, that the umount of crop will turn out somewhat below the com- vuted estimate. Within the last two days some inquiry 1as been manifested for consumption, but there appears sporition on the part of sellers to press forward teo igerly, nor to submit to any further depreciation, not- withstanding the absence of buyers for transit, and all want of speculative feeling. No revival of importance can, however, be expected during the electioneering pe- iod, which is fast approaching, and the uncertainty as to its results, added to the ges character of the in- ‘elligence from England, will most probably for atime act as a check on commercial operations. During the sent month, the imports have amounted to 143,500 Daler, ind the outgoings to 23,399 bales. We now refer to the the movement in our port, for subjoined table, showing day, contrasted with former Ashes.—By the Sully and St. Nicholas,from New York, we received 465 bi1s Pots, and 107 bbls Pearlsof which the steater portion of the former had been sold prevous to ar- cal, at {45 a 45 50 per 80 kilo., duty (8 25) paid.

Whalebone.—This articles continues in request, the sales consisting of oniy a few small parcels, taken on the spot at {1,86 a 1,86, 1} duty paid. Prices also have a down- ward tendency, and may new be writtan at {1,75 a 1,36 1}. Che two last’ packet ships hed on board 177 bundles, naking our stock 60 tons, against 220 tons last year.

The Foreign News, We received the highly important news brought | by the Acadia yesterday morning at half past 3 0’- ‘clock in advance of all our cotemporaries. For this we are indebted to the enterprise of Harnden and the Captain of the Albany. boat. The news is very important. The treaty with Texas—the sickness of Sir Robert Peel—his quar- rels with the Tories—the precarious state of Louis Philippe—the successes of the British in India and | China—the fitting out of dozens of vessels of war— | the passage of the new tariffin France and England, and other matters, render this the most important news we have had for a long time. Read, learn, | digest it thoroughly, and be wise. Hicuty Imvontant rrom tux Mormon Country. —Wak in THE Fan West.—Late !ost evening we received despatches from the Mormon country, | with further most astounding disclosures, which lead us to believe that an insurrection or civil war will be the immediate result in the State of Illinois and along the Mississippi, where the Mormons re- side. We have two more letters from General John | Cook Bennett, with astounding disclosures of the Mormons—and more from Prophet Joe Smith, show- ing up Bennett. They are extremely rich. The “Sunday Herald” to-morrow, will contain the whole of these curious particulars. Larest rrom VengezveLa anp New Grenapa.— We have the Venezolano, a Caracas Journal, to the Mth of June. | The conditien of commerce and business is truly | lamentable. A new revolt has taken place in Cienega. Obando was advancing with a few troops, which he had picked up in Ecuador, towards New Grena- da, with a view of fomenting an insurrection on the coast of the Pacific. Arrivais.—We observe in the city, at the Ameri- ean, the Hon. Mr. McKennan, Hon. Mr. Forster, | Hon. Mr. Colquit of Congress, and Mr. Hilliard of , Alabama, the new Minister to Belgium. The visit. ' ers from the south are coming in very slowly; very few families south of Philadelphia are about visit- ing our watering places this summer; they defer their visits this year until the fall. Rorrians,Pickrockers anpLoarers.—The feeble ness of our police, its total want of energy and acti- vity, arising from its miserable organization, is causing our city to be filled with loafers and beg- | gars. The weakness of the police emboldens the | ruffian and pickpocket, who now assemble by | night and day at all the most frequented places in | our city; here they contrive to get up sham fights | for the purpose of crowding the population and | picking pockets. ‘The first ward is filled with sturdy | beggars, who eleep nightly on the Battery. The public houses, the Astor, the City Hotel, Howard’s, the American Hotel, are constantly infested with | beggars. In short, the citizens are alarmed at all | these things, and justly complain that the police | do not do their duty to the city. Foreign News.—We are under many obligations to the enterprising Harnden & Co. for the early de- | livery of the foreign news brought by the Aeadia. | Harnden sent an express by the way of Hudson, | which reached here in the North America at a little ; before four o’clock, yesterday morning. We are also indebted to Adams & Co., and the officers of the News Room for their attention on this occa- sion. Navat.—The brigantine and three scheoners | which eailed from Indian Key on the 10th inst. arriv, ed at Norfolk on the 18th inst., and anchored off | the Naval Hospital. They are, schr. Flirt, Lieut. Com. McLaughlin, senior officer of the squadron; brigantine Jefferson, Lt. Com. John Rodgers; sehr. | Van Buren, ‘Lt. Com. Marchand; schr. Madison, Lt. Com. Heindon. The Sehrs, Wave and Phenix remain at the sta- tion. The U. S. steam frigate Missouri, Capt. Newton, left Norfolk on the 19th for New-York. The U.S. brigantine Boxer, of ten guna, Lt. Bul- lus, from Santa Martha, arrived at Port Royal on the 23d ult. Frigate Columbia, Captain Shubrick, went to sea yesterday morning from the Lower Bay for Rio de Janeiro. Sream rus Moyra.—The British Queen is the next steamer due. She left Antwerp on the 7th, and Southampton, England, on the 10th instant ; and 1s, therefore, out thirteen days this noon from the latter port. We may look for her on Monday with certainty almost. The Great Western comes next. week to-day. Then followsthe Columbia with advices down to the 19th instant. Pourrics in Massacauserrs.—All but six towns in the ninth District are heard from. Now the vote stands—Democratic, 2054—Whig, 2053—Abolition, 650. This shows a change in faver of the locofocos of over two theusand votes. She is out one Axotuer Marine Curtosrry.—We learn the fol- lowing particulars of'a cock boat from Captain Crane, of the Emily, arrived. The English sloop Blackbird, 14 de.ys from Ber- inuda, with onions, was at St. Thormas on the 11th inst. The B. is a sloop of only four tons, navigated by the captain and one man. They experienced very bad weather all the passage, the captain hav- ing been washed overboard twice. The sloop leaked badly, which required the man at the pump most of the time. The Captain was a man 60 years of age We believe this to be the smallest vessel that ever floated to the West Indies. Itis to be recollected that Captain Crane once crossed the Atlantic from Englevnd in a little iron steamer of eighty tons burthen.

Aw portant utrnovemnnt is called for by the Cor- poration, connected with the administration of justice at Blackwell's Island, which it is to be sincerely hoped will be adopted as soon ax practicable, and which we regret that the Mayor did not eal! public attention to in that part of his messege relating to the combined evils of the present Police system. We allude to the ne. cessity of providing a suitable place at the Ferry, foot of Gist street, within the control of the city, to land and se. cure prisoners while waiting for the passage of the boat across the stream, as also to shelter the sick and those af- flicted with contagious and infectious diseases. Public policy snd humanity prompt such a course, as the Corpo- vation are now merely on sufterance, and allowed the use of a landing through the publie spirit of the owners of the adjacent ity. We earnestly call the attention of the already ‘ient Committeeaon Watch, Police, and Prisons, and Charity, and Alms House, to this important subject, the necessity of which will be readily perceived by a visit to the place alluded to. This matter was be- fore the last Common Council, but by some undue influ- ence, beyond our ken, no definite action was ever pro- duced, At that time the following certificate was pro- sented to the Committee on Charity} and Alms House, to whom the subject had been referred : “The subject of providing on this side of the river, at the ferry to Blackwell's Island, proper means for the seou- rity of prisoners, as well 2s suitable aecommodations for the sick and others, who are under the necessity of being transported to the island, being now before the committee on Charity aud Alms House for their consideration, we deem it our duty as public officers to urge on the commit- tee and on the i Ponte Council the necessity of providing such accommodations as well for security and protection, as to prevent the too open palpable intercourse now exist- ing between the prisoners on the island and their associates inthe city, which at present, baflles the best efforts of the keepers, and of the police. : E.

The daily application of this writ in cases of notori- | ous burglars, thieves, and pickpockets, is a mockery of | , its virtue, and should be frowned down by the public. —_| Arruictina Acciwent.—Yesterday morning as Anson | ; G.

Dr. Vache, was passing in the immediate vicinity at the time, and raised the interesting youth from the ground in his arms, but his skill was of no avail, as death ensued almost immediately afterwards. Tue Recent Counterreits.—The publication yester- | day in the Herald of the arrest of the gang of counterfeit. | ers, brought forth a large number of persons who had re- ceived the spurious $5 notes of the Tolland County and $3 of the Greenwich banks in payment for goods purchased. In the course of the day Honora Shepherd, the wife of one of the Shepherd gang, now in prieon in Trenton for pass- ing counterfeit money; Peter O'Brien, her brother, snd | Charles Shepherd, were recognized as having passed these counterfeit bills, and we trust that evidence sufficient will be secured to send all arrested to the State prisons- Let every person who has been defrauded come forward and recognize them, Another of the gang, who says her name is Elizabeth Hennessy, was also committed yester- day in company with Ann McGinnity of No. 3 Hester street, with whom she lived, andto whom she gave one of the notes to get changed, and which was passed upon Mr. Barney, grocer, corner of Division and Suffolk street. ‘Tue Grany Procession for the introduction of the Cro- ton water wiiltake place about the Ist of the ensuing month.

Smoke was seen issuing from the door and windows, and on th store being entered by the insurance firemen, flames were dis- covered proameding from one of the upper shelves, on which were placed a number of boxes of wafers. The fire was extinguished by a bucket of water. The oceu- pants were fully insured, and the cause of the ignition of the fire is unknown. From the manner in which the City Hall bell was rung, it was almost impossible to tell whether the fire was in the fifth or the first district. Ring slower, you new comers, when the fire is down town. A Moxsten 1x Humax Stare.—A brate in the shape of aman, named Jacob Cochran,jwho resides in Centre street, while in a state of intoxication yesterday. threw one of his own children, an infant about 18 months of age, from the second story window of the dwelling in which he resides and fractured one of the little innocent’s legs, and otherwise so injured it that its life was despaired of last evening. He was committed for examination. Nev x Darowxen.—A well known genius of the colored ies, named Edward Piper, one of the Catha- rine market fish boys, was found drowned at the slip near the’market yesterday morning. The evening previous about 11 o’clock, Mr. James Wade heard a person fall into the water at the end of the slip, and immediately ran to the wharf to rescue him, but arrived too late to accomplish his purpose.

In the Senate the Commerce and Navigation re- port from the Treasury Department for the year 1841 was presented and the usual extra number ordered to be printed. Mr. Canon presented a free trade memorial trom Middlesex, Virginia, and sent to the chair a letter written by Gen. Harrison in 1836, in which he insisted that the Compromise Act ought to be main- tained, and that he would resistany violation of its spirit or principle. Mr. Calhoun said it was certain that the compromise act, after this explicit and so- lemn de@laration of Gen. Harrison, could not have been disturbed, had he lived. The President had acted on this question, to say nothing of any other, precisely as Gen. Harrison would have acted. Mr. Crrrrenven replied at some length and with much animation, deprecating the introduc- tion of General Harrison’s name into the debate, and then branching off into an attack upon the po- litical character of Mr Calhoun—charging him with inconsisteney—with acting with the Whigs and Democracy alternately—with being originally opposed to the compromise act, and with voting tor it with reluctance at last. Mr. Crittenden spoke with his usual vehemence, and it inter- est_ was. manifested in his remarks. ‘The Senator from Kentucky,said Mr. Carnoun in reply, has made a most unprovoked personal attack uponme.
