Everything connect- ed with t2,2de was in a hi saticfactory condi- | tion, and the elements of pi rity Were never more healthy t.@" at present ibited: There appears to be @ Very id in Great | active | Britain for all our Staple agricultural products at | improving prices, and there isevery evidence of a demand from the other side for those ar'ticles cal- culated to advance pricey ‘very muck in this | country. It was our impréssion previowis to the | arrival of the steamer, that her advices wo uld, so far as commerco was conéerned, be very favor- | able, but they fairly exceed our most sanguin ex- | pectations. The Bank of England had reduced | the rate of interest to three per cent, and the re | was any quantity of capital offering for employ - | ment in commercial pursuits. The advance in qui is for cotton, with the extensive demand from the trade, had been pro- | duced by accounts from) this side, in relation to | | the deficient yield of the old crop, and the pros- | pect of a deficiency in the new. The movement was, therefore, based upon proper data, and was | the more likelyto be permanent. Ifa specula- | tion in this staple springs up in Liverpool or in | this country, it will be carried to a very great ex- tent. Two short crops of this staple in succes- | sion, is something very unusual, and cannot but be attended with an improvement in prices. One or two deficient crops now, would be felt more severely by the manufacturing classes than in previous years, as the consumption has reached #n amount requiring an increase in the yield of several hundred thousand bales per annum. Prices, in all probability, will experi- | ence a very great revolution under the existing | appearance of things, in relation to the crop now | in the ground. We, however, expect to see, in case a very extensive speculation be produced, the usual explosions and bankruptcies grow out ofthe movement; but as it is likely to commence so early in the season, we indulge in the hope that | the planters will be more benefited this time thaa | they have been in a majority of those of a similar | character. An advance has already been realized here in | breadstufs, and it is highly probable that a spe- | culative movement will take place in articles | coming under that head. We trust those interest- ed will look back and reflect a little upon the re- | sult of the speculation in flour, &c., last fall. Se~ veral of our oldest, largest, and wealthiest houses | were made bankrupt by their immense losses, | growing out of the inflation in prices under the excitement of that period. We have before us every thing calculated to ensure a long period of commercial prosperity, if we content ourselves with progressing at a moderate rate; but if we go ahead recklessly, there will be a sudden termi- nation to all our bright prospects, and before we are aware of it, we will find ourselves in the midst of embarrassment, and upon the verge of utter ruin. The political intelligence from Europe does nvat amount to much. in Parliament in relation to the war between the United States and Mexico, during which Lord Pal- merston stated that the British government had renewed the offer of mediation to the two parties engaged in hostilities, previously made by Lord Aberdeen. We should infer from this, that the fovements and Pros Letters from out ation in New Wor st of the inter- yy the steamer | | | first offer had not been accepted by either of the | two governments interested. This is about the gist of the political news. The Policy of Santa Anna—WiIll there be Peace 1—Nous Verrons. The manifesto of Santa Anna, dated the 16th August, hasbeen received in the United States, and so far as we have been able to learn, its na- ture and contents verify the anticipations which we have already expressed as to the prospect of a speedy termination of hostilities between the two countries. We judge of the character of this important state paper, not merely from the sy- | nopsis given of it in the Union, but from the cor- | roborating testimony of those who have had the | Opportunity of seeing it. We therefore speak ad- | visedly on the subject. Twocharacteristics of this paper merit particu- | lar notice. It will be perceived that it bears date | the very day of Santa Anna’s landing at Vera | | Cruz. Among the grounds upon which it de- nounces the conduct and administra: des, is that forthe purpose of accomplishing sinis. ter designs of his own, he brought about the war with the United States. In Santa Anna’s judg- ment, this war owes its origin to Mexican policy, and that not a national, but an individual, or fac- tious policy. The war is then not national in its | inception or motives. The United States is notthe lawless, unprovoked aggressor which it has here- tofore been styled from one end of Mexice to the other. The other feature in this paper, to which allusion has been made, is not only a corollary from the proceedings, but possesses at this time, and under all the circumstances, an intrinsic im- portance. There is no vituperation and abuse of the United States, such as for years we have seen to abound in Mexican state documents. The effect of the manifesto is calculated, and we may fairly infer, were designed, rather to al- Jay than to foment a hostile feeling between the two nations. The only plausible reason which can be assigned for this extraordinary change in the feelings of the Mexican rulers, is that it springs irom a desire to bring the war toa ciose. And | this, disposition, met as it is by a corresponding oneon the part of our Executive, leaves little doubt, strengthened as it must be by every con- sideration of patriotism, and we may, perhaps, be permitted to add, the strongest motives of per- sonal interest on both sides, lead us irresistibly to the conclasion, that Mr. Polk, in his next message to Congress, will have it in his power to commu- nicate the immediate prospect if not actual restor- ation of peace, Anrival op tHe Vicrorta.—This fine packet ship, Capt.

The | fire was discovered in the theatre, near Broadway, in which the Ravels usually performed, and which was in a comparatively short time reduced toashes. The fire then extended to the refresh- | ment saloon, where the concerts a la Musard were usually performed, and which soon shared the fate of the other building. Thence the fire at- | | tacked the two large dwelling houses on Broad- | way, and levelled thern with the ground, nothow- | ever before all the fufniture was r moved, and conveyed tothe house of Mr. John Niblo, No. | 413 Houston street. The house No. 692 Broad- | way was next destroyed. This was occupied by | Dr. J.T. S. Smith, a Botanic Physician: by G. | Derrick, Saddle and Harness Maker; by Mr. Murphy, a Carver and Gilder, and by McCord, a Boot Maker. Dr. Smith’s lo: $1500—insured | for the full amount. Mr. Derrick’s loss about $1200, partly insured. Mr. Murphy’s loss about $2000, no insurance ; and Mr. McCord succeeded in saving all his stock. The building in the rear and on Crosby street next suffered. The upper | part was used by Captain McArdle, asthe armory room. All the property and furniture was re- moved, and the building slightly damaged. This, we believe, comprises all the buildings destroyed j and injured. At the corner on Prince street, was a drug store, and adjoining this was the store recently occu- | pied by Grant Thorburn, but from which he had removed a little while before, and the place was unoccupied and being repaired. All down. Loss unknown. Those whe are familiar with the place are aware of the great quantity of wood and frame work that was there crowded intoa comparatively limited space, and will readily comprehend why the conflagration was so rapid. It was at first apprehended that Mr. Niblo’s dwelling-house would fall a prey before any thing could be saved from it. By great exertions on the part of the fiemen, and the prompt assistance of the lth ward police, under the control of Captain Kissner and Assistant Captain Scatliff, a consider- able portion of the contents was rescued. | The new club house was saved, having re: ceived but little injury. The entire bleck, occupied by the saloon, theatre, gardens, &c., was swept over by the flames, and nothing remains but charred timbers, dried-up fountains, and shrivelled shrubberies aad trees of the City Guards, and the lower partasa Club | Val | Dill like this offered to the: Paax Tazataz.—In consequence of Mr. Forrest's in- disposition, the tragedy of “‘ Macbeth” wes withdrawn last evening, and the play of the “ Hunchback” was sub- stituted.

Itis charged that many of them neglected their duty and made a descent to the wine cellar, and indulged in the viands that were there stored, and that the police follow- ed their examples between whom and the fire- men a row took place concerning the liquor. We can hardly cred{t this report, and the firemen owe AM themselves to exculpate themselves from the charge. _ We understand that Mr. Chippendale, the act- ing manager of the tueatre, has engaged Palino’s Opera House in Chamber street, for tive nights, where all the ¢ompany that belonged to Niblo’s will appear.

At the same time we | heard that the companies had cffered the free use | of their roads, without any charge, to the govern- ment, for this purpose, to start at any hour, and to run at any speed they pleased.
