{From the N. Y. Jour, of Commerce, July 17, 2 P. 31. ] ARRIVAL OF THE BRITANNIA. 15 DATS LATER FROM EUROPE. The steamship Britannia, Capt. Harrison, reached Boston at 10 o’clock this morning, making the trip in 13 days, having left Liver pool on the 4th July. The following intelli gence was received here at 11 o’clock, by tele graph. Liverpool, 4th July, 11 A. M. —A signal depression has taken place in the corn market since the departure of the last steamer, attri butable to many causes, but peculiarly to the prevalence of fine weather, and the growing steadiness of the money market. Prices have become unprecedentedly low, and an unusual depression is everywhere felt. At the closing of our market yesterday P. M., the best West ern Canal brands would not fetch more than 345. 6d. per bbh, and in some few instances it reached 355; but the transactions were gener ally of a retail character, and did not indicate the slightest speculative disposition. Large quantities were sold at 345. per bbh, but that is a price which could not be realized for any considerable quantity to-day. Richmond and A lexandria are quoted at 335. per bbh; Phila delphia and Baltimore 325.; Xcw Orleans and Ohio 315., and U. S. and Canada flour from 28s. to 295. per bbh Indian corn has likewise suffered a material depression, and cannot be quoted higher than 445. Gd. to 455. per quar ter. Inferior sound ranges from 325. upwards. Indian meal sold at 20s. to 21s. per bbh of 19G lbs. The rumors of the potato disease are exceed- ; ingly conflicting and not reliable, and the growing crops are in a state of the utmost for wardness; the w'eather could scarcely be more favorable than it is. Cotton. —This market has been affected in , an inverse ratio, and shows a state of decided improvement; the advance is | pence per lb. since the last steamer. Our latest quotations are for upland and Mobile 71 per lb. The Am erican descriptions sold this week comprised 16,000 Upland at 6ja7i|; 25,060 Orleans at s§a -8J; 10,530 Mobile and Alabama at 6|a7J, and j 280 Sea Island at 13a22d per lb; less activity has been evinced to-day, though a large quan tity offered, affording a turn in favor of buy ers. The entire stock now in port is estimated at about 143,000 bales; the American proportion standing at 333,000, showing a material general ’decrease. Provisions. —Prices have been generally steady for the last fortnight, so that any impor tant alteration cannot be named. Prime Mess Beef is*worth per tierce from 90s - , to 955. Ordinary, 80s. to 90s. Mess per bbh, 565. to 60s. Os old prime mess and mess prime, ho quotation can be made. Pork stands at, for prime mess new' per bbl. 70s to 765., old 65r. to 705., prime 5Gs. to 625. Ilanis in pickle sell freely, but there has been no market for dry. Iron continues firm at the prices quoted by the last steamer. Financial.—The money market has consid erably improved, And greater confidence has been infused into every branch of trade; not j only is a growing liberally evinced by the Bank of England, but the provincial Banks gener ally manifest a spirit of enlarged aecomnioda tion. The paper of the%ank of England in actual circulation, including 7 days and other post bills, decreased last week from £18,815,- hSI to £18,741,490, being a difference of £73,- 561, while the increase of bullion was £14,808. Arrivals of Packets.—The Royal Mail Steamer Hibernia arrived on the 28th nit.; Henry Clay on the 24th; Marmion, 25th; St. George, 25th; Cornelia, Oxford, and the Ann, 26tlr, Adriondack, 28th; Enterprise, 30th.— The Washington steamer arrived at Bremen bn the 19th. The Sheridan reached here on the 20th. The Shenandoah, and Sir Isaac New ton arrived at Havre On the 16th and 21st of J une. General Intelligence.—The Boguc Forts, In the China Seas, were captured and complete iy'dcstroyed by the British land and naval forces on the 26th of April. 876 pieces of ar tillery were seized and spiked in 36 hours-. • Father Mathew has received A pension of £3OO a year from the Crbwm Humor states . that the Pope h;is declined to make him Bish op ol Cork. Mr. O’Connell’s remains are expected to arrive at Southampton on the 17th. The Sarah Sands, steamer, put into Cork in consequence of an accident to her machi nery. She was expected to sail yesterday. Jenny Lind continues to mark in the great est possible Rtti action in London. She is engag ed to sing fort wo nights in Scotland, Glas gow and Edinburgh, at a remuneration of £IOOO. Fever is dreadfully prevalent in Liverpool. It has made the most destructive havoc amongst the Catholic cl#gy, eight having been swept away in two months. The dis temper was, in every instance, contracted by them while visiting the sick. Liverpool July 4.—11 A. M.—Large sales of Western flour at 345. but that price cannot be realized for any considerable quantity.— Richmond and Alexandria at 33s per barrel: Philadelphia and Baltimore 32s ; New' Orleans and Ohio 81s; Canada sour flour 28 a 295. In dian meal 20s to 21 per bbL India corn 44s 6d to 45 per quarter. Cotton has advaced |d per lb, since last steamer. {T rom the Richmond Enquirer.] The Question Settled. After an elaborate and anxious investigation, by a Charlotte correspondent of the Richmond Enquirer, the ‘‘famous line,” embodied in a toast given by Lieut. Governor Daniel at the Webster dinner in this city, has been traced to its origin. It occurs in a stanza of James Montgomery's address to the Ocean, which is quoted by the Enquirer, and reads as follows; <‘Ah! why hath Jehovah, in forming the world, With the waters divided the land, His ramparts of rocks round the continent hurled, And cradled the deep in his hand. If man may transgress his eternal command; And leap over the bounds of his birth To ravage the uttermost earth, And violate nations and realms that should be Distinct as the billows, yet one as the seal ” CT W.

Died, in this town, on the 7th instant, at the resi dence of Major John Pettes, Mrs. Harriet He len, wife of Wm. Richard Pettes, of St. Marks, Florida, and only daughter of the late Wm. J. Danelly, of Macon, Ga., aged 13 years. Also, on the 6th instant, her infant daughter. It is but a few days since the voice of this young bride from the distant South gladdened the pater nal home of her husband. Yet silent lies her tongue iu death, while her babe sleeps on her bosom —in one common grave. Little did even her own relatives sec of this new member of their circle—yet had she so won the re gard of all who had the pleasure of this brief ac quaintance, that it is with many tears she is yield- J edto tins mysterious Providence which bears her to the tomb. Bitter as was the thought of death in these happi est moments of her existence, yet she meekly yielded up her spirit to God, dying in peace—us the witnesses of her last moments testify. She lies not in a stranger’s grave, though borne thither and wept over by strangers. She rests with her kindred, loved and lamented by relatives, and many here who shall know her only in the glorious world above. May ‘-'the God of all comfort” comfort and sus tain her afflicted relatives at the South, who have the deepest sympathy of many iu this community. —Comm. Commercial. LATEST DATES FROM LIVERPOOL JULY 4. LATEST DATES FROM HAVRJ JUNE 18. Aagnxsta Market. July 21. COTTON.—There has been no change in the Cotton market since our report of the 14th inst. The few lots sold have been at prices then current. Our warehouse men are offering only such lots as they receive orders to sell, and find no difficulty in 'disposing of them when put on the market. Two 'crop lots haVe been disposed of this M eek , one of 124 bales middling fair at 11 3-16 c., and another of 76 bales at 11 cents. The other sales of the week Were in smal? parcels, at prices ranging from 10| to llf cents—-principally at 11. We continue to quote middling at a 10|; niiddling fair 10| a II; fair II a 11J cts.—our outside figures for square bales. As regards the growing crop, our advices from I all quarters continue unfavorable. The recent heavy rains experienced here appear t 6 have I been general throughout the Cottfin region, andl will 1 have anything but a favorable effect on the grow ing plant. Unless we are faVored with a late full, the general opinion stems to be that we Will haVt another short crop. RECEIPTS OF COTTON, , From the Ist Sept. 1846, to the latest dateb received. 18kW.
