CITY NEWS. Zana Reform Meetwng at Military Hall. Qn Tuesday evening the land reformers met at | Military Holl, im reference to the Homestead bil Defere the United States Senate, and the Presidential eleétion. This was their third meeting. The ques- ‘tien for discussion was a resolution proposed on the previous eveaing, by Mr. Magagnos, to question the | e@mndidates of the two parties, the whig and the | My. Danicl Willis presided, and Mr. David G. | poly waz appointed Scoretary. ‘The question being called up, Dr. Young opposed | fhe resolution, as it was uselecs to question the de- | Maoeratic candidates, who would stick to their plat farm. Pierce had already declared his determina- Mion to answer no questions Mr. Magacnos then addressed the meeting, and aid, we are now on the eve of a very great event, whieh takes place every four years. The question Rew before us is not one of selfish interest; it com- Jhendes that grand idea that the land was made man to live 4 i Sa cape. wrlesinpeed = Weiciod, 60 Wilt a of the vreles shall ‘we throw our body into, seeing we are a most influ- ential y? Which of the two parties, the whigs or es Neecain, have done the most good for the ? Isaythe whigs have. The land reformers ve forsome time past supported one or the other ef these parties, expecting in return to be rewarded; Dat it was all a fallacy. He then contrasted the whigs and democrats, praising the whigs for the yeason that they always carried out their measures, whereas the democrats had always failed to do so. Me said, that in South Carolina, which was a demo- q@satic State, and had been always considered as geeh—in this State where the great John C. Cal- heun lived—it was well known that the people had Yess liberty than in any other State of the Union. ‘Phe people there could not vote for a President er Vice-President of the United States; the voting Being all performed by delegates. It was now the tine to choose which of those parties land re- formers should support. He then urged the neges- sity of doing something important at ence, aad not to be putting it off from day today. Something must be done immediately. Now is the time. L. W. Rycxman then earingrs, ee the two ies, but was decidedly in favof ot the whigs. said that land reformers did not want any loaves fithes, or any offices whatever; but it was his can- @id opinion that they would have more to hope from the whigs than the democrats. The whigs carried imto effect all their measures and the democrats did not. Therefore, he expected more from the whigs han the democrats. Indeed, there was not a great deal of difference between the two ‘ies only in the name, which was meant to cateh voters. He thought that they should not get any assistance from Fraxklin Pierce, He wus the enemy of land referm, and one of his most important ae was, that no land should be given away. He then refer- red to the vast tide of emigration that was flowing inte this country, and said journeymen asked for apprentices’ work, and apprentices’ wages, becanse foreigners worked co low that they were obliged to @oso. And the children of those journeymen were ebliged to leave their fathers to beg aims in the public streets. They sent over to Europe heavy and substantial goods; but Europe sent us over light ones and cargocs of idle people in return, crowding this country to an alarming extent. He then alluded te the democrats, and said, that if they were true to their principles, they would abolish the Costom House depariment, and if they did this, it would be truly democratic. (Applause ) Mr. CRAWLEY said he was surprised at the tone ef the last speech. The Germans and Irish were land reformers, but they were not whigs, and if the land reformers espouse the cause of tho whigs, they will drive off the Germans and Irish from their @anse. It is well known that the Germans aro in favor of intervention, and they are also, for the most part, democrats; but the platform of the whigs de- pounced intervention. He thought the democrats would be more injured in the great States by the Jand reformers going for the third party or the Pitts- burg movement. Mr. SrraGveE said he thought it was too late to form a third yy, and there was more to be ex- pected from the whigs than the democrats. One of the latier party told him that day that the land re- formers were al) a pack of thieves, and that they ht go to hell, and eo forth. For his part, he was im favor of Scott, who had declared himself in favor ef land reform, and he would vote against Pierce, whe was opposed to it. Mr. Groxex H. Evans, of N. J., was here loudly @alled for, ard responded to the call by saying he agreed with the first part of the resolution. He was im favor of progress, but he heard nothing as yet te eonvince him that the land reformers should ehange their position. There were two classes of land reformers—one clasg’always yoted with their party or with that porty that they hoped would be most favorable to the cause. Another class would only vote for the candidute pledged to land reform. The regolution, therefore, takes the right ground— with regard to that part of the resolution that es that they should question the candidates, is he did not think politic, for it would be better that the Industrial Congress should do it. With regard to the Hemestead bill, though he concurred im the eensure expressed against the members of the Benate who voted against that measure, he did not regret its defeat, for it was not so good as it might have beon, and he hoped that next time a better measure would be proposed, and carried, too. He insisted upon plodges pas ere in addition to platforms, or anything candidates had previously said. He would not support even the candidste of the Pittsburg Convention unlese he pledged himself. If he do not pledge himeelf, and if none of the others do, a third candidate must be found somewhere, and one class, at least, of the mational reformers will vote for him. The other class will take their choice of the whig or demo- eratic party, andin that case he would wish them to vote for Reott; but the wisest policy of all will be to vote for the candidate of the third part pledged to land reform, end to set up that candi- themselves if necessary. $ i Mr. Devyn, a northern Irishman, residing at Wil- liamsburg, said he thought that the man who could hesitate as to which of the two parties he would vote for, was no land reformer at all. Both were equally @orrupt; but the whigs were more favorable to land reform at the present moment. The delay of the committee of the Senate in bringing forward the rt, was to gain time to nrra: © compromise pween the whig and democratic Senatofs to defeat the bill, in order that the odium of rojecting the measure might not attach exclusively to veh ef That vote was nova true test vote. It was like the dhumbug printing contracts; and be hoped that a test vote would yet be taken that there might be wo excuse left to Senators who professed to be in faver of land reform. Did they expect anything from the principles or disposition of the whig party. who were undoubtedly the rey tatives of the aristocracy! No; he rather looked to the democra- ¢y—the true democracy, not the sham agree te aid their causo. They were not to bo bafiled by the dodginge of the Senate. If foreign intervention, with ‘‘the con of bis uncle” at its heed, invaded thie country with drawn swords, the ee would waik through them like a whirlwind. (Applause.) And would they suffer the Felches to treat them in thie wanner? No; they would strike them with a death #s bad as the death of the invaders—a_politi- eal death forever. (Applause He believed that the Pittsburg Convention yould not affect the whigs or democrats, as it would take an equal number of votes from both, and they would go to the sham battle on the 2d of November as comfortably as if that third party did not oxist, because if it take 10,000 votes from Norse ge . it will take 10 000 from the other. They would, therebre, fire their blank cartridge at each other, and laugh in their sleoves. But let the ftand reformers firo a volley of lead into one of these periies, and thus de- cide the fate of the day. Tho whigs did not care for land reform, but the land reformers ough’ to ure the whigs for their own purnoees. The way to ‘use them, was to vote for them, and thus clicit thei gratitude. The democratic party were in collusion with the South. Pierce refused to answer a respect- ful letter addreseed to him on the subject, because he feared the South. Now, it was the reverse with the whigs. They had no hope from the South. The: knew that their etrength lay in the North, ani from the prairies that firet echoed to the sound of the axe, and where the first smoke of a log cabin ever ascended tip to the frontier of Canada. Ho ‘Was opposed to tariffs and whig principles. He was oppored to the factory system, which the tariff was designed to rosa sera tyetem which imprisoned beautiful girls in factories to be corrupted, instead of these fair flowers blooming in the sun, and under the fostering care of their peronts. But he had hopes from the whige, because of the half declarn- tion already made, and because not only the demo- eratic progress whig press, such as the Tribune, and Times, had come out in favor of land reform’ but Daniel Webeter, and the Courier and Enquirer, and the old contervative whige; while the National | Democrat and other democratic papers were opposed to it. The Democrat gave tho land reformers a stab through the cide of Horace Grecley, who was a man be aid not care much for, because ho did not trust him ; but they were assailed through hiro, little paper in Willemsburg had followed suit strength of the land reform party lay Kast and North, and the strength cf the whig party lay in the same districts Put that and that together, and see what ft would count. If any one could show # better plan than to fre « volley into the democrats, so that when smoke clears away they will not know where to find thempelves, let him tell his plan, and, in the mame of God, let the land reformers adopt it. He was sorry the Homestead bill did not pase, for, thovgh it was ssmall dose, it would have been a tremendous pur; ahd the sailrond apeculatosa who ater igentted fy yoy ery ee y say te heid the cuneate ‘tbe Benate ac- countable if that bill was nitimately defeated Mr. J. K INGAauzs, said be did not seo the force of the reasoning. that nothing could be dome, exer ig by jewing one of the two “Beng ties, For his part, be boped for nothing from either. Neither of bh as & party, ever gave an impetus to the Jaud reform movement. He agreed with tho secretary, that the Germans, who were demoorats and in favor of foreign intervention, would not join the whig party, 10 matter what might be the pla:form. It was the spoils, and the corrup‘ion produeed by the ~ that constituted the grand obstacle to evory reform. He bad no sympathy with the democratic party. He was sure he would not vote for Pierce, neither would he vote for Scott, unless be proved himself a land reformer, and more than that, unless he was true to the great interests of humanity, and avowed himself favorable to a sound Suroign policy. In reference to dependence on either of the parties, he adverted to the fable of the horse who sought the assistance of man to conquer the lion, but was ridden by man for the rest of bis life. He did not know that he could vote for Hale, for he knew nothing of the Pittsburg organization. What he roped was, that they should form an jan ue. Few of the land reformers would abandon their party to vote on the o ite side, and theirvotes would be thrown away unless they were united on a candidate put forward by thomselves. Mr. Witi1am West said he went to Pittsburg as a land reformer, and therefore to get Scott nominated. The platform at Pittsburg was perfect, but. the no- minee was imperfect. He was not the right man for the whigs. Ifit had been 8S. P. Chase, it would have dam: the democrats, particularly in Ohio, and Jand reformers would have gone for him, but as he was not nominated, and John P. Hale got the nomination in spite of himself, thore was no.other al- ternative left than to go directly for Scott, who was not a whig on a whig platform—(roars of langhter)— but stood on a platform he had formed for himself— a good land reform platform. (Renewed laughter.) General Scott had ae! himself a land reformer. Where was General Pierce? He was silent as the rake He was nowhere. It was pretty well un- lerstood why he (Mr. West) went to Pittshurg. He went there expressly to aid the election of General Scott; but he was defeated He would tell them how the thing was done. The “little giant” Doug- Jas, wrote a letter to ward Spalding, of Ohio, to the effect that if John P. Hale was nominated Ohio would go for Pierce, but if Chase was nominated the State would go for Scott. Spalding, who professed to be 2 no party man, or rather, to belong to the third party, availed himself of tho hint, and secured the nomination of John P. Hale. It was their duty, therefore, to go now for Scott. There was another reason why they should do so. Seott was backed up by Billy Seward, and they all knew what Seward’s principles were. Some- body referred to the tone of the articles in thewhig papers onland reform. There wasa power- ful article on the subject ina magazine forthe month of June, and though there was no name at the head of it, he happened to know that Horace Greeley was the writer. It had been said that he (Mr. West) was bought by the whigs and went to Pittsburg to do their bidding. This he would not reply to—he would only eay that he avowed he went there to se- cure the election of Scott, by nominating 8. P. Chase, of Ohio. Mr. Barty said the reason why the land reformers Were not the second party instead of a third party, or rather in the position of attaching themselves to a third party, was that they never organized till it was too late, and it they proceeded in this way they would never be one step further in advance till the day of judgment. The two parties were both alike, and there was no principle at stake betwoen them. No- thing ef niggeriem or abolition. They were, thero- fore, free to take either side for tho prenents and this was the only course leftfor them. ‘They should join one of the two parties and not throw away their yotes on the Pittsburg party or its nominee _ Mr. Youna said he was at the Pittsburg Conyen- tion, and it was one of the greatest that ever was set on foot in the country, and it would be the only opposition party in the campaign after the present election. Its ieee was all that was just and beautiful. Now it was their duty to vote for tho candidate of that party, or if not, to vote for Scott and eye the corrupt democrats a whipping that would cure them of their vices. It required two de- feats in succession to bring them to their senses. Mr. SHannor said he hoped nothing would be done to-night, as it was suggested that the Indus: trial Congress should question the candidates. “He Was not in favor of any ef the platforms, and as for the Pitteburg party, it would be only throwin; away their votes to go for it. He had never vote: for a whig in his life; but if Scott came out man- fully. he would secure hundreds of votes for him in the Ninth ward, or if Pierce came out, he was will- ing to go for him, or if the Senate would still do its duty and pass the bill, be would be satisfied. If Scott came out for land reform and got their nomi- nation, they were bound -to organize for him in every ward. The Srcrrrary then said he would, with the leave of the meeting, withdraw his resolution, and substitute a more practical one. His object was to elicit discussion, and that object had been attained. Mr. Apranam G. Lavy ‘moved that it be laid over, a be had not yet an opportunity of speaking on_the subject. | ground. This proposition was agrecd to, and the resolution was laid over. | The Sxcrrrary then moved that the United | Statee Sonate be culled on to take a final test vote. Mr. Devyr said be had drawn up one to the same | effect, tbat was perhaps more explicit. He then read and moved the following :— Whervas, We do not regard the recent vote on the mo- tion of Senator Walker. to lay asiaeall other business and take up the Homestead bill as a full and fair teat of its strength in the Senate. thercfore, Rerolyed, That this meeting request the friends of the measure in the Senate, to bring it again before the cham- ber, under the most fayoralle circumstances that time and occasion will allow. Mr. MacaGnos opposed the motion, as delay was just what the Senate wanted. He moved us a sub- stitute that 2 meeting should be called on Wednes- day evening next, to decide what candidates they would support Mr. Devyn—What will this do? A Voicr—It is a whig trap. Mr. Devyn--The house will be filled with office- seekers, if a particular night is fixed eNJ. Price was of the eame opinion. They bad to-night the real representatives of the land re- form party—-the men who attended these meetings for cight years—but if they fixcd a night next wock me 4 final decision, they would be swamped by out- faders. lost. ‘The resolution of Mr. Devyr, to request the Sonate to give the measure a final test vote, was then adopted, and a committee was appointed for the | gy Loita out the resolution—Ceorge H. uvans, Thomas 8.

You know he has you very kindly of late, and then you have been over so many times to the Museum to see him ; and don’t forget he sent you a little monkey. Loua.—Oh, Pick, what a fibber you are! Inever went to see jum ; it was the dear old orang- outang, & much more respectable and honest man than um, and you know it. Picx.—But you accepted tho monkey which Bar- num sent you, to make up for all the injury he has done you, use you would not put yourself in his hands; and now you might honor him with a visit. Lova.—l’ll do nothing of the kind, Pick. He bas got it Ws some scheme, and his toadies, Greeley and Raymond, will be there; and I won’t co. I won’t meet them. I will g° to Catskill ountain, and tuke my: monkey, Jocko Barnum, along; and you may go uP to Iranistan, and leave me to take care of myself. Tell Mr. Barnum I am obliged to him for the present of the monkey, and that I am very fond of him. He isexactly like Bar- num; and I do believe he learned all his pretty tricks and amiable dodges from Barnum himself. Bye- bye, Pick. Pick.—Barnum is to be at the pic-nic, at Yon- kers, on the 26th. If I go to Iranistan, you can thank him for the monkey then. Good bye. It was in vain we tried to induce the Countess Lola to go on the excursion. Her horror of Barnum. was too great. In reply to all that we urged to in- duce her to go, saying that she would seo all the editors of New York under one roof, she would not zo. ‘*No,” said she; ‘ho tricked me once, and that was his fault. If he does it again, it will be mine.” But Mr. Pick resolved to ge alone, and leave the indignant lady to go to the Catskill Mountain House THE TRIP—THE GUESTS TO BARNUM’S. Mr. Pick was at the depot at an early hour. There were three cars which had been set apart for the visiters to Mr. Barnum’s. One car was for the press independent, meaning those not under the con- trol of Mr. B., or not in his pay, and the other was for those devoted to Mr. B. The third car was for friends of Barnum, not connected with the press. While we modestly waited, we were espied by Bar- num’s secretary, Mr. E. Pensight. ‘Hallo, Pick,” said he, ‘this is the car for you. B. told'me to at- tend to you.” We entered a car, and found many people that we did not know. ‘They all belong to the press,” said the Secretary, who, like Bar- num, is a joker ina small way. ‘‘Spotthem to us,” said we. “See in the corner; that. is the editor of the .As- modian, a Jewish paper. He isa great friend of Phineas T. B.'s” **And the one on the same seat ?” “That is Dr. P., the editor of the Christran Ad- vocate.”” “And the fat cdap in front 2” “That is Major Morrell, of the Cowricr & En- quirer, and the one next to him is Col. Webb him- self, ‘The one in front is the editor of the Commer- cial Advertiser ; nobody knows what his name is. The two in the next seat are Bryant, of the Evening Post, and bis gon in law, Parke Godwin. Opposite is Brooks, of the Lapress, next to Charley Secor, who will be the next mayor. That fellow next to Genin, the hatter, is the editor of the French paper, talking with C. Edwards Lester, of the Herald o the Unun. The next seat contains Hiram Fuller, of the Evening Mirror; but sou know him.and D Darbin, of the eiesionahy Advocate. That is Greeley over in the corner, talking with a lady, who is the editor of the Moral Keform Advocate. The next is Ray- mond, of the Times, and the editorof the Protestant Churchman. Bat I can’t toll you all the names. T've got a list of all invited.” ** Whereis Mr. Bennett 7” “Oh, he is in the next car, where the Sunday eae located, and others of Mr. Barnum’s particu- jar friends. He is talking with Cromwell, Mr. Bar- nvm’s lawyer” We looked about us when we reached the other car, which contained the religious press. There we were among friends, men and women. There was Mr. Whittlesey, of the Mothers’ Magazine; Dr. Beecher. of the Jndependent; the editor of the Sab- bath Recorder; Joseph Barber, of the Sunday Times; Williams, of the pean our friend Ropes, of the Ailas; Smith, of the Courter; Nichols, of the Mercury; Williams, of the Morning Star; and Pictou, of the Sachem—all snarling and growling at each other like mad. At last we started, in three hours reached Bridgeport. Here, for the first time, we met Mr. Barnum, who had gone on ahead. A procession was formned, and we all marched up to Mr. Barnum’s house, passing through a dense crowd of Bridgeporters, who, for the first time in their lives, saw one hundred editors grouped together. The church bells rang until we reached the resi- dence, which is modelled after a gingerbread Cal- cutta residence. From the steps, Mr. Barnummade an address, giving a graphic aocount of his progress through lifo, from the time he left Danbury, with- outa pair of extra breeches, until that happy mo- ment. We were allowed an hourto go and visit the curiosities about the mansion. Mr. Barnum came tous with his secretary, asked us how we were pleased, and regretted that Lola Montes did not come up, as there were many sensible women in tho arty, and he had hoped to reconcile her to his friends Greeley and Raymond. Barnum spoke so kindly of Lola, that we melted, and told him frankly, that if he would go to her pic-nie, at Yonkers, on the 26th, and make aspecch, all should be forgotten. Barxcm —Now Pick, did you ever soe so many curved fools as have got together to-day ? Pick.—Never, Barnum. What are you driving at now 7 BaRrxcM.—Mum! Wait a few days, and look at the notices you will seo about me. I am driving for a do. Pick —Who isto be dono now, the Bateman’s ? Barxcm.—Hush! Picx.—Oh! Barnum den’t talk. Lola told mo all about that. She says that you and Bateman have fot up this new dodge, and that you will make $100,600 by it. Barnum. —Keep qnict. Lola is shrowd. Pick.—She is, and she reads you. Do you know what she says she will do, if she don’t make money in this ett Bannum.—No; what is it ? Pick.—Sbe rays she will give you $100,000 if you will go to Europe for one yoar, and let her show you through France and Germany as the great American humbug, aud she is sure that she will clear §400,000 more by the operation. Banxvm.--Go away. Pick—That ie all very fine ; but why did you in- vite all these people up bere? Banxuu—To see my water powor. I havo duga well so deep that it is unfathomable, and, with an engine, I throw a thousand hogsheads on to the top of my building every ten minutes. Prcx—Ob, Barnum! Do you expect to make the editors ewallow all this? Barnum--Bah! You are some, and there aro other editors here that are some; but as for the great herd of ink eprenders that I have invited up to-day, what the hell do they know about unfathom- able depths of water power?) Why, that ass Gree- Jey, asked me to-day how mush I paid for Cerean sculpture. Get out! [Exit B) We went all over the house and grounds, and such a quantity of second-hand etuil we never saw beforo There was a complete zoological garden here. In fact, Barnum’s menagerie, when not in sorvive about the country, feed at Iranietan. INCIDENTS Horace Greeley was noticing two deers, and said, “Great God, who cut their tails off?’ Barnum re- plied in a most solemn voice, ‘Doar Horace, they ‘were not cut off at all, the God of nature drove them in.” The simple ignorance of Mr. Creole: about zoology, was the subject of conversation until | the cars returned. Mr. Bennett, of tho Hrnarp, and we believe Mr. Halleck, of the Jvurnal of Commerce, roataes in tho grounds, but wo did not notico that they joined in any of the gammon arrangements, Dr. Ingram of the Notional Democrat, and Mr. Fuller of the Mirror. got into a discussion about Barnum polities, but arrived at no result, Mr. Pick is obliged to apologi 80 to his readers for cutting short thissketch.

M. ‘The stoek market, this morning, was in a very unsettled state. Quotations for some of the fancies were up, and for othersdown, The movement was not of a decided character either way. At the First Board, Nicaragua ad- vanced 34 per cent; Florence and Keyport, +4; Ulster Miping Company, 3<; St. Lawrence, 34, Cumberland Coal Company opened at an advance of 5 per cent, and at the close it bad reached 83; per cent; Stonington, 1; New Haven Railroad, }¢; Northern Indiana Railroad, 1. Erie Railroad declined 44 per cent; Harlem, \{: Read” ing Railroad, +4; Michigan Central, 4. New Jersey Zine remains quiet, without change in prices. Harlem was particularly active, the transactions amounting to more than two hundred shares, The rise in Cumberland Coal comes rather suddenly upon holders. It is, without doubt. a good stock, and worth at least what it is selling for. The market is tending upward, and the feeling is favorable for an important rise. At the Second Board: there was an active demand fer all the leading etocks, and an advance was, in several instances, realized. Cumber- land Coal Company went up 134 per cent; New Haven Railrond. 14; Erie Railroad, 14; Stonington, 134. There was a small lot of Phoenix Coal Company stock sold this afternoon. at 10 per cent. This stock has been quiet for some time past, but the company have been actively en- gaged in completing its arrangements for mining, and marketing ite coal. The receipts at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of this port, to-day, amounted to $179,132 58; payments, $33,946 91—Dalance, $5,877,356 79. ‘The steamship Niagara, from Boston, to-day—Wednes- day—for Liverpool, carried out $237.000 in specie, of which $150.000 was American gold, The steamship Pa- cific, from this port, on Saturday next, for Liverpool, will take out upwards of half a million, in specie, The earnings of tho Rochester, Lockport and Niagara Falls Railroad Company, during the month of July, (the first month of its operation), amounted to $26,831, of which, $26 453 was for paesengers The freight and mail earnings were only for a week. The beoks of subscription for the remainder of the stock of the New York and Liverpool United States Mail Steam- ship Company (the Collins line) will be opened on the 10th of September next, and remain open until the 26th of that month, A majority of the Finance Committee in the Senate hag ogreed to report an appropriation of $8,000,000, three per cent stock, redeemable in twenty years, to pay the creditors of Texas. This is about the amount of debt for which the United States is deemed to be held reponsi- ble—about that sum being loaned to Texas upon the pledge of Custom House duties, &c. It will be recollected: that in the ten millions Texas boundary bill, fivegnillions, six per cent stock, were reserved to pay those debts, which Texas has 60 ‘scaled’ that the creditors will not accept. These eight millions, three per cent, in lieu of the five millions, six per cont, it is calculated, will only cost the United States a quarter ot a million more, and discharge the Texas debt altogether. ‘The Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company have notified the holders of the past due mortgage loan, that it will be paid on the Ist of Seplember next, from which time the further payment of interest will cease. Such holders as may prefer to extend, upon the same terms as the holders of the common loans, are at Hberty to do soat any tino before the said 1st of September, by surrendering old for new certificates.

Du Fay & Co.’s trade report for the month of July, hoe the annexed succinct account of the principal mar ets of the world up to the latest dates :— Cosi Rerort For Jury, 1852, The same want of spirit which we motieod in our report, continued to prevail both here and In Liverpdol during the first helf of the month; but during the latter, more activity was manifested in the Liverpool market, in consequence of the advices brought by the Ni: which steamer arrived on the 18th, and ica, which arrived on the 25th instant. These advioes report- ed smail stocks in the American ports, as well as in tha interior; and stated that the crop wouMl barely react: 3.000.000 bales. including what has been left of the old crop. The sales of cotton in Liverpoot, which had pre- viously been confined to the immediate wants of the trade, have since been of magnitude, and amounted to 114.752 bales for the week ending yest of which 39,890 were taken on speculation, and 13,200 for export. This has caused a rise of one-eighth of a penny to ono- fourth of a penny per pound in the price of middling cot- tons, as well as reduced the stock fu Liverpool. which had risen to within 32,600 bales of what it was same time last year. American descriptions were even in excess of what they were last year Our spinners and turers found themselves compelled to insist upon a cor. responding advance; and although the buyers showed (a reluctance to submit to any whatever—priees of incop yarns and the lower descriptions of mule and water twist. have been established at one-fourth of a pen- ny Ay pound higher. ie gocds market was not influenced in the same de. gree, but stocks being very small of most descriptions of printers, a slight advance was obtained on the prices of these goods; while the holders of articles lees in demand, such as stout domestics, and 40 inch shirtings, did not fai! to exhibit greater firmness. In order to make our friends acquainted with the rela- tive prices of 1st of August. 1861, and this day, we have drown up the following. small statement. from which it appears that producers are now worse off then were, and their position will be rendered still more une favorable, if the attempts to drive up cotton still should be successful. The present abundance of money seems to us to be the only tangible reason, or even pre- text. for higher cotten prices just now. If the stock in the American ports now be less than last year’s, the American manufacturers are better supplied, ‘a8 they hold at present an average two months’ in- atend of a two weeks’ one, as last year. In Liverpool, the stock is only rlightly less than it was same time last year, while the deliveries to the trade d the last seven petty have been 10,000 bales per week greuter than ever fore. ‘The stock 'n Liverpool of all descriptions of eotton waa ‘esterday 651 900 balea, and this, with the surplus stock n producers’ bands, forms. it must be confessed, a fair suprly towards the consumption of the rest of the year, without even another bag arriving. We are induced to venture upon there remarks as we have frequently heard it stated recently. that acu: & bag of American cottom would be left in Liverpool ot the end of the year, If the necounts from India and Uhina bad assisted the movement which is now taking place in cotton, the price of the latter would have risen considerably more, but fortunately for the trede genernily. although unfortu- nately for the speculators. no impulse waa given from thore places, 40" mule, which we quoted at the close of June at 874d. perlb , could be bought in the scoond week of this month at &/d to 84,d. per lb. amd the rise of 14d. per Yb on cotton, has. so far, not been sufficient to raise the price any higher than it was at the ond of June. ‘The excess in the exports of yarn to the Continent of Europe. this year—over samo period of last year, was, two months ago, 4,000 Tecueees; of 1,200 1s, each, but has pack: This now dwindled down to. ages. apparently un- satisfactory circumstance. has. nevertheless, induced the merchants engaged in that trade to effect some purchases of pinoops. and other suitabie yarns, at present much in demand for the home trade, and by no means abundant in the market, indeed, several spinners of pincops and warps ore engaged for all they can produce for some weeks to come. Aceounts from Germany, which have beea unfavorable for scme time past, are improving, owing to the firm belief that the st there will prove a plentiful one; and we rely more on euch natural. legitimate causes, tor a permanent improvement in trade. than onany stimulus momentarily given to it by speculative transactions, or an enhancement of prices, established irrespective of supply, and demend. been repeatedly elven, has improved of late, ad Geant Topeatedly given, fail to be active, when the harvest. which promises to be excellent, is recured. Indeed. we fully hope that an in- creare in our inland trade will make up for the falling in the demand for other ‘Sah such a8 Mexico, and the West Indies, both which markets are taking con- siderably less this ecason than in previous ones, ‘The precarious political state of Mexieo ronders cau- tion, on the part of ship) necessary, and the low _— paid in Europe, during the early of the year, for produce of all kinds, act detrim iy_to tho ters by which such produce is supplied whilst, at the name time, eae benefit this country, just. as the cheap- ness of money here has a tendency to raise prices above what the more distant and poorer markets can afford to pay. The stimulus which the superabundance of the means with which itis carried on gives to trade, ir, theres fore. not an universal beeing. The accounts from the United States of America ate, on the whole, satisfactory for the dry goods trade. Im~ ports have not been excessive, and the general state of ‘orperty in the Union seems to continue, without lead- ing to reckless trading such as our bankers and capital- ists wore afraid of. The avidity with which the bills reeently offered by the East India Company wore taken up, soems to show that people prefer laying down funds in India in that way to sending yarns or goods Of the latter, particularly, the account of sales received from Caleutts by the last overiand mail, were fur from recent but as our tatement shows a decreace of more than 15,009 packages plain and printed cotton goods, we trust wo may ven- tur to look forward to a more satisfactory state of trade, Pe Se ‘aa regards remunerative prices to shippers of yarns and goods, ‘The ftalian and Mediterranean markets are not active at preeent, and great difficulty is encountered in making, 4 profit on present Manchester prices.
