Vol, XII, No. 263~Whole No, £506, ARRIVAL OF THE GREAT WESTERN. OSE WEEK LATER FROM EUROPE. Highly Important Commercial Intel- ligence. STATE of the COTTON MARKET. FAILURE OF THE POTATO CROP. ADVANCE IN THE GRAIN’ MARKETS, DEATH OF LORD METCALFE. Arrival of the Overland Mail. THE RAVAGES OF THE CHOLERA IN INDIA. THE CONDITION OF ENGLAND. &e. &e. &e. The favorite steamship Great Western, Capt. Matthews, arrived yesterday morning from Liverpool, wuence she sailed on the 12th ult. She met with a severe gale on the 20th and 2lst. ‘We are rejoiced to learn, however, “that al- though she encountered a storm by whieh she is alittle disabled, which retarded her passage, she is as staunch as ever, and will sail from New York on the day advertised. Business continued to improve in Englegag. Indian corn was increasing in value. The Cotten Market continued steady. There was, indeed, an upward tendency, The Grain Markets were on the rise, Among the names of the passengers by the Great Western, we notice the names of Sivori, the anxiously expected violinist, General T. F. Floumoy, Mr.§fFerrier, late Mayor of Montreal, with his family, Rev. Dr. Scott, and Capt. Corbit of the British Army. There were 126 in all. Lord Metcalfe, late Governor of (Canada, is dead. The accounts from India are painfully distress- ing. The cholera—that scourge of the human race—is sweeping all before it in Scinde. ‘The correspondent of a London paper, writing from the East, intimates that the warlike Affghans are being stirred into commotion against the Bri- tish power by the Shah of Persia, and they have put the projected movement upon this issue—if he will furnish the cash, they will furnish the troops. O’Connell has gone to Darrynane, and there will be a lull at Concilation-hall. {n his last speech at that popular gathering-place, he dilated on the failure of the potato’ crop, and promised the people plenty of food and work if they kept quiet —ifthey did not violate the law. He estimates the expense of feeding the people until the next harvest at fifty millions of dollars, which sum, he estimates, the government is ready to advance, if the necessity arise. The Railway Herald says that the United States Bank have sentan agent over to England, suppos- ed to be with the view of making arrangements with parties holding sccurities there, and so getting to work again. The Marquis of Ailsa died on the 7th instant, aged 75. No fewer than 150 emigrants returned to:Liver- pool from the United States a few days ago. The charge for the ships of war employed in the suppression of the re trade, in course of last year, was £706,454. In consequence of the increasing complaints of the potate crop, rice has risen from 123 the cewt. to 173 and 186. By a recent order of the Commissioners of Customs, foreign sewing silk is now admissable free of duty. The trip of Mehemet Ali Pacha to Constanti- nople must, according to all accounts, have cost him in money the round sum of @ million sterling. ‘The commissioners have reported that the bay of Galway presents great natural advantages for @ more rapid communication with North America. Among thelate unexpected events connected with the corn trade.of this country,is the purchase of two ca: s of English grown wheat for expor- tation to France. The Free trade Society of Paris has ordered a splendid gold medal to ~ struck in the French int in honour of Mr. Cobden. Arrangements are stated to have been made by the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, for con- veying treasure from the Pacific to Europe, across the Isthmus of Panama. A corn riot, similar tothose which have eccur- red in France, took placeon the 22d ult., in the market of Lusanne, in Switzerland, and the arm- ed police was required to quell it. According to the National, a commercial treaty ig about to be concluded between Franee and Denmark, and a French consulship is to be estab- lished at Kiel, on the Baltic. It is calculated that not fewer than 40,000 Irish ome have entered Scotland, via Ardrossan the Clyde. Suppose each of these to carry back 30s of his earning, a sum of not less than Fee will thus flow into the poorer districts of A comparison of the prices of the various kinds of fruit in the markets, for the last week in August of the and of the present year, shows that in the price has nearly doubled in every case. ‘The waters of the Rhine have not been for many years so high as they are at present. Most of the Cellars in the ‘own of Brisach were under water on the 25th ult. and itwas feared thet the stock of potatoes they contained would be spoiled. The nish Infanta Maria Louisa Fernani who it to be married to the Duke de Mont- pensier, youngest son of Lonis Philippe, is said to possess a fortune of 16,000,000f. (. 000.) Mr. Mayhew, who has been in some way con- neeted with Punch, on his examination at the Bankruptey Court, on the Ist instant, stated the profits of this periodical at £10,000 per annum.

The German papers, which have latel; to hand, contain accounts of a great fire. whiek broke out om the evening of the 29th Aug., at Leipsic. The losses sustained by this disaster are very considerable; the Hotel de which has been completely destroyed, is estima- ted ata valne of six millions of francs. The fire appeared to have raged sixteen hours, during which time a number of lives tell a sacrifice to the accident. The Gazette Universelle Allemande, which is published at Leipsic officially announces the number killed at five, and wi at nine, | ,» THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 1, The London Gazette of the Ist ult., contains the | time, and especial orders in council ratifying the treaty of inter- | repeal the e: corn law were disclosed, with his national copyright entered into with Prussia for | °W2 consent, Juestionably upon his own authori- the protection of “‘ authors, inventors, designers; . ity, the mant interest has dec!

According to,the official returns of the crops in France, it is calculated that there will be a de- ficiency often or twelve days’ provisions, and that it will require an outlay of 150,000,000 francs to supply the wheat necessary for the consump- tion of the country. Barley, rye, oats, peas, beans, &c., had afforded an indequate stock, and serious fears were entertained for, the potatoes , which were extensively diseased in twenty-two depart- ments. The news {rom India is calculated to produce a feeling of uneasiness in a political as well as in a commercial sense. Sir Henry Hardinge, it seems now to be universally admitted, notwith- standing the skill and bravery evinced in the war with the Sikhs, has made a Dungling. business of it, and in all probability the work will have to be done over again. Mistaken clemency in the case of semi-barbarians is oftentimes itive cruelty. Ample details will be found elsewhere. Sreamsnir Great Britain.—This noble speci- men of maritime architecture, after undergoing an examination and some slight repairs in the aah Dock, has again been floated, and re- sumed her berth in the Coburg Dock.

As yet men of science have failed to trace the failure to any particular cause, and the practical farmer feels at a loss what todo. The fact is, the potato disease is an agricultural puzzle, which neither the one or the other can_ satisfactorily solve. But apart from this view of the matter, it is now a question which all classes, both here and on the continent of Eurepe, must seriously consider, how is this de- ficiency of buman f to be made up? The crops in the United Kingdom are not more than an average either in quantity or quality. We maust, therefore, loek to other countries for a sup- ply sufficient for the large and increasing con- sumption that is now going forward. Again, the accounts from France as to the harvest in that country are most distressing; a very large quanti- ty of wheat will, therefore, be required for its im- mediate wants. All over the north of Europe rye, the staple article of consumption, has yielded mis- erably short. Barley and oats are algo defective, and wheat far from abundant. It’ is, therefore, evident, that large importations of “ breadstuffs ® ftom Canada and the United States must take place, for which very remunerating rates will readily be paid. The wire policy of settling the Oregon question without bon eer rsa to arms, is more than ever apparent. England and the United States have lost nothing ; but, on the con- trary, both are already guiners by adopting the course advised by cautious and discerning states- men.— Wilmer’s Liverpool Times, Sept. 12.

The majority in favor is expected to be very large in the Cortes, ‘he Paris and provincial papers continue to re- cord fresh incendiary fires. The Chamber of Deputies discussed the matter a few days ago, when the Minister of the Interior defended the po- lice from the violent attacks which had been made upon that bedy. Prior to the adjournment of the Chamber of De- pesien the address of that body, in answer to the ing’s speech, was voted unanimously, in which they expressed sentiments of unbounded loyalty towards the French throne, and that such was the universal feeling of the electors of France, who had but recently chosen them as their representa- tives. Among the late accounts received we find an address in the Constitutionnel, si in the names of the two General Opposition Committees sitting in Paris, by Messrs. Odilon Barrot, Duvergier de Hauranne, Gustave de Beaumont and Leon de Maleville, to the electors in the country, urging upon them the organization of local committees to watch over the registrations, and to collect all information and documents concerning the elec- tions of deputies.
