NEW. YORK-HERALD. ————————EE New York, Thursday, February 11, 1847. —— SE HIGHLY IMPORTANT AND INTERESTING FROM EUROPE FAMINE IN IRELAND. Excitement in England and France. By the arrival of the steamship Sarah Sands, from Liverpool, we have advices from London and Liverpool tothe 20th of January, inclusive. ‘We hardly know what to think of the accounts received’ by this arrival. Europe appears to be in a dreadful condition, and what will be the re sult of the great scarcity of food God only knows. Death from hunger was spreading to a frightful extent, amd there appears to be no pros- pect of mitigating the terrible evil. Un- less speedy and effective retief comes from some quarter, we se nothing to prevent a revulsion in Ireland more serious than ever yet experienced. Eight months before harvest, thousands are starving to death im the principal towns of Ireland, and the government of Great Britain have not taken proper measures to arrest the sufferings of the lower classes, Laborers on _ the public works, set in operation to give employ. ment to the poor, actually drop down and die at their task. There is no relief in such a system. In times like these, what have Parliament to do , with party lines? What have politival principles _ t© do with the starving millions, begging for bread? great question now is, in what way can the greatest supply of food be obtained in the shortest possible time? We answer by open- ing the ports, and patting into commission every available vessel, for transporting grain from those countries having a large surplus. The supply must be distributed. We have toomuch. Europe has too little, We want to sell, and they want to buy; and the protectionists and free trad&rs of England must work together, and lay aside all prejudices: Ic is not the time now to argue upon causes and effects, any ther than to guard against the ef fect of a much longer continuance of the distress and misery existing in all parts of Europe. Whatever idea may have been entertained heretofore in this country in relation to the ac- Covants of the deficiency in the harvests of urope, all doubt must disappear in the face of the statements published in our columns to-day. The actual deficiency will prove even greater than anticipated; and as bad as it may appear now, the prospect is even more unfavorable. In former years of scarcity in Europe, there has been some hope for the future—some dependence Upon the next harvest, for a removal of the diffi- culties one short crop produces; but there is not in the present even that to look to, as the deficien- cy another year will, without doubt, be more ex- tensive than this. The potato crop is likely to be next season a total failure—this year it has bsen but partially so. As to the grain crops, there is a better chance, as there is notso much dinger from disease, and a favorable season will give an average so far as the cultivation goes; but we have our fears that there will be a great reduction in the breadth of land tilled, and that the aggregate yield will be correspondingly less. We miust Idek out for, and be prepared for the Worst, but hope for the best. What will be the effect of the present and pros- Pective condition of Europe upon the United tates? Itcannot be otherwise than good, very geod. Whatever creates a demand for our agri- cuitural products, advances every interest of this country. All we want is a permanency in the demand, aud no matter how extensive, it could be easily supplied. There is, however, very little danger of the present activity in our corn markets beiog immediately followed by any apathy, or of the immense supplies we shall turn out another } year, provided, of course, the season is favorable, | ging begging for a market. The high prices now current forour agricultural staples, will stimulate production very much, and # greater breadth of land willbe appropriated to the cultivation of grain crops this year than ever before in the his- tory of this country. The farmers of some of our ol, worn out, States will get rich if Indian corn r-mains long at one dollar per bushel. There isno doubt bat that the ports of Great Britain will be thrown open, for the free admis- 800 of all kinds of breadstufts. This will throw immense supplies into those markets, and tend ‘ery much to a material reduction in prices. Ail this cora must be paid for, and we must have the pay in goldand silver. Very little will be paid for in British manufactures. Some of it will probably be paid for by remitting State stocks to this country, but the bulk must be paid for with bullion. The Cambria, it is said, will bring out ne.rly a million pounds sterling in specic. A very | Jarge amount had been insured at Lioyd’s before the “Sarah Sands” left, full two weeks before thé Cambria’s day ofdeparture. What an impe- tus this accession to our supply of bullion will give to all kinds of business on this side of the At- lantic ! The importation of precious metals this year wili be greater than ever before known, and there is no telling what will be the effect. We are a surprising people, we live in an aston- ishing great country, and we exist in stirring times; but while we are surrounded with plenty, and have every luxury, there are millions in Europe in want of bread, and thousands upon the point of starving to death. Letus thank God that our lot is cast in a country literally flowing with milk and honey, but let us not forget that it | is our duty to alleviate the distresses of our fellow beings. The Steamship Sarah sands, ‘This splendid ocean steamer came up tothe city and took possession of her berth between three and four o’clock yesterday afternoon. Notwithstanding the un- comfortable state of thé weather, and the bad walking consequent upon the melting snow, the wharf at the foo of Clinton street was soon crowded with spectators anxicus to behold this new iron wonder. The fourma: ed monster began to snort at brief intervals, through her the lines were thrown out, and finally roared out'atremsndous strain when fairly moored at the dock. Her passengers were s90n disembarked, the yurds trimmed, decks cleared up, and all looked as quiet as need be. ‘The order observable on board this vessel h of January, on her first trip across the At. lantic. She wes built by James Hodgson & Co, for Messrs. Thomes and Joseph Sands, the well known mer- chants of Liverpool, and Captain Thompson, her expe rienced commander She cost $200,000, She is built of iron, and is finished in every respect in the most thorough mauner. She is of 1800 tons burthen. H Joons are fitted up in the most elegant style. The mein saloon vies in the yichoess of its furniture and decorations with the most sumptuous drawing room. It is filled with couches, covered with the richest crimson velvet. The panelling, ornamental carve work and figures are e: tremely elegant, and with the mirrors and paintings, gi A most brijliant effect. She brought out fourteen pas- sengers, 160,000 pounds sterling in specie, and about 500 tone of fine goods as freight. During the greater par, of the voyage, the weather was extremely boisterous, and head winds or squsls, were obstacles to avery short passage; yot, the serew propeller worked @dmirably in every kind of weatuer, aud the principle of the screw as 60 auxiliary oid in navigating the ocean, is demonstra ted by the trial-tcip of thia ship, to be one of the greatest importance.

Arrival oF THE ApMinaL.—This fine packet ship, under the command of Captain John Wot- ton, arrived early yesterday from Havre, whence she sailed on the evening ofthe 10th ult., bringing one week’s later intelligence. She brought Lon- don papers of the 9th. We issued an Extra Gerald containing her news yesterday, in time for "change hours.

It is in itself a piece of sterling merit—happily | conceived and novel in its plot—its language is chaste and vigorous, and at times it exhibits poetical passages of ahigh order. It is simple in its expressions of deep feel- ing. and naturel in the development of its characters and scenes. These last take a strong hold of the feelings, and produce a thrilling interest—and the play is of effect. and evinces drematic power. It was warmly received here on its first representation—it made a great hit at Boston and Philadelphia, and drew crowded and de- lighted audiences.

The stock market threugh- out the day has been unsettled, and in a very feverish state in consequence of the receipt of advices from Eu- rope. Early in the morning, the packet ship Admiral from Havre was announced, with five days later intolli- gence from London, and early in the afternoon the steam- ship Sarah Sands from Liverpool wes announced, with twelve days later from Liverpool. There was little dis" Position to operate until the nature ofthe advices was known, and before the Extras were issued, it was too late for any operations of consequence to-day. The newsis «xceedingly important in a commercial point of view. We have not received accounts from the other side ‘more favorable for this country for many years, They must have a very great influence upon prices of and movement's in, breadstufts, and give the greatest activity to our markets. Itis an idle wind that blows nobody any good. We have given in our columns full reports of all the European mark The exports of breadstuffs, grain and cheese from this uary, 1847, were 88,661 barrels of flour, 93,665 bushels of wheat, 398,013 bushels ef corn, 26,349 barrels of meal, 63,362 bushels of barley, 16,774 bushels of oats and 1,431,021 pounds of cheese. Since the Ist of February, the shipments of produce have been very heavy. The bark General Taylor, which cleared a few days since for London, had on board nearly half a million pounds of cheese; and the clearances from this port, yesterday, were for Great Britain and Ireland, 19,200 barrels of flour, 3000 barrels corn meal, and 60,200 bushels of corn; for Antwerp, 22,500 bual of wheat, and 4,068 bushels of rye. At i the flour, grain and cheese we can spare will soon find its way across the Atlantic. The trade between this country and Great Britain, in che is tlrcady immense, and it appears to be increasing with the greatest rapidity. When one ship takes out two hundred and fifty tons of cheese, there must be a pretty large market for the article on the other sid It appears by our European advice bullion shipped from Liverpool by the steamship Hiber- nia was exactly £394,6€0, of this amount one house ship. ped £190,000, this amount came to the agent of Roths- childs, in this city, on account of the French govern. ment, to pay for flour and grain purchased by the agents of the house alluded to for the French govern. ment. Three houses in London shipped £50,000 eash, and the rest was made up of small suins by various ship- pers. One hundred and twenty-five thousand pounds sterling had been shipped by other conveyances previous to the departure of the steamer, making a total, up to the 6th of January, of five hundred and twenty thousand pounds sterling.

The amount of spe- cie on hand, compared with paper in circulation, is in favor of the Pennsylvania banks. The fluctustions in the loans and discounts of the New York banks, keep our money market ina continual state of uncertainty. Our banks operate more in fancy stock loans than those of other States ; and asthe margin for such securities is so liable to changes, the banks are compelled to keep changing their loans upon them. Any thing tending to depress prices of fancy stocks, produces an immediate call for loans, and a contraction takes place. These con- tractions may take place half @ dozen times during a quarter, and no report made of them, unless they happen just before the quarterly returns are made out. Even in thet case thoy are covered up ac much as possible, and public reports of these operations are avoided as much as can be. If we could get at the loans and discounts of our banks to the commercial classes, frem quarter to quarter, it would be seen that they are as uniform in extent, os those of the banks of any other State; but when every description of loan is mixed up together, under one ge. neral head of loans and discounts, it is impossible to tell accurately in what department the fluctuations ere.- Although the fluctuations may not be in the line of dis- counts to the mercantile cls they are more or less affected by the changes in the other departments, as the money market feels the effect of all the movements of the banks either in the way of expansion or contraction.

New Yoru, Wevnespay Artennoon, Feb. 10. Just before the meeting of ‘change the arrival of the packet ship Admiral, from Havre, was announced, with e'ght days Jater news from the continent, and five to six later from Liverp6ol and London. The news appeared inan Eztra Herald, which had a rapid sale among bu i- ness men, which produced much excitement. The effect was to unsettle the markets. As the merchants had not time before the meeting of ‘change, at 2 P. M., transac- tions were limited in cotton and flour. Holders of bret stuffs advanced their pretensions, but buyers in the ab” sence of correspondence stood aloof. Just atthe close of ‘change the Sarah Sands was reported coming up in the lower harbor, with twelve days later news than that brought by the Admiral. Up toa late hour, too late for | the great Southern mail, her letter bags had not been received Although the Sands passed the foot of Wall street at sbout 3 o'clock, P. M. her letter bags had not been received at the City Pest | Office at about 5, P.M. The city papers received their files a little after 3 o'clock, but merchants could not gey their letters until a late period in the afternoon. The great Southern mail left at 4%, P. M.,There was culpable neglect somewhere, which deserves the severest repre- hension, The second Extra Herald was promptly is- sued, and extensively circulate at ai | afternoon ; but we heard of no transactions upon the steamer’s nows. Business became suspended till merchants could obtain their letters. There wasa rush made to the telegraph by business men, who sent off the Sands’ news in every direction. During ’change, and before the arrival of th amer, we noted the fol lowing features of the market barrels Pots at $4 873g, arge holders demanded $7 25, but buyers refused to meet the hb Genesee sold at $7, de! held at firmer rate: market id ‘on Breoklyn City Mills sold before t Wheat—Holders advanced at $163.
