New York, Dec. 6.
An arrival yesterday from Liverpool brings
] intelligence from Europe to the 23d of Novem-
•ier, which, however, does not possess any
j ieature of particular importance. England,
j in reference to Ireland, has the fear of a bad
I conscience. The English authorities see dan-
] ger in every quarter and in every sail on the
Atlantic or in the Irish chatmel. It appears
|J ,otne too or three strange crafts were descried
] at the ofling from Dublin, and forthwith the
! pigeon-house fort was strongly garrisoned to
~ prepare for the approach of Fenian privateers
i or transport ships with armed Fenians on
A board ready for an invasion. In London Con
sol* were quoted at 8f 1-2, 5-8 ; Illinois Cen
tal, S'J 1-8; Erie, 65 1-4; Five-Twenties>
o'- 1-:’, Cl. In Liverpool, on the 22d, the
•ales ot cotton were 18,000 bales. TJte. mAr
iel was easy, and rates without material
change from those by last accounts. The re*
port saya “closes nominal,” which does no 1
appear very lucid. A further change in the
British - Ministry was on the cards. France
and England had agreed to issue a remon'
urance to Spain in reference to Spanish pro
ceedings in Chili, ‘
in the New York Herald of Sunday there are
letters from correspondents in sluggish old
Europe, which contain several items in detail
ot passing events there. It is manifest that
England cannot conceal her fears and appre
hensions on the subject of the powerful mar
tial marine force exhibited by the United
States in having more than twenty powerful
double-screw war-ships, capable of running
at a «pecd of more than fifteen knots an hour,
in addition to the hitherto effective and pow
erful fleet of war-ships ready to enter upon
active service at a short notice. A correspon
dent in Paris says that a lively discussion i®
entertained there on the question of Maximil
ian usurpation in Mexico, and that the oppo-
-ttton members of the legislative assembly are
endeavoring to create a vigorous organization
«ith the view of censuring the Emperor Napo
leon for the share he has taken in it. The
, New York Herald of the 30th of October was
j stopped in the postal department of Paris by
i .'oveminent officials, and no cause assigned for
’ the suppression; and on social subjects the
"nter says that ladies of distinction have form*
' a committee to devise and carry out a reform
teinale dress, and tp reject the costly.fabrioa at
S present in use for ftmate costume and adop*
■ ss expensive materials, and whilst this project
»a» in its incipient state the Parisian manufac
turers and dealer* were shipping for the Ameri-
>»n markets the most gaudy and expensive
goods in the world of fashion and extravagant
expenditure there. Is it, right tflat the wives
esd daughters of American citizens could not
.ratify their taste for finery in American pro-
tliioe, by wearing fabrics.of American manufac-
t'ue, without importing gaudy and expensive
*brtcs from France and England ? Cholera had
fs tar disappeared from Franoe that the Board
ot Health in Parts ceased tp issue daily bulletins
ott the subject. Paris, Florence, Naples, Turin
a od other European cities and towns "nave nuin-
l> er 3 of American citizens from the Northern and
Southern States who strew their way with gold,

those antiquated regions are so lavish of ez-
oditure that the inhabitants tpere are often

:: their superabundant wealth, and regard the
-°untry from which their! visitors oowe, as a
>od where riches grow as indigenoni- to the
s 1 as the growth and produce of their fruit
bees. The most gratifying feature' in all this
' the gentlemen of the Houth and ’ North re-
ctprocate corffially with each 1 other, * play ’ at

■Sties they ourse the cauies of their expatriation,
and would gladly seise the means ef annihilating
the monarchical government and the Moated
aristocracy and oligarchy, and establish a Re
publican {government instead. Every one knows
that revolutions of the kind are aoeomplished by
the masses when oppressed beyond endurance, and
henoe the spread of the doetrines ofFenianism in
England.
The contest for municipal rank and distinction
has been pursued with ardor, transflnent with
acrimony, and some day an ingredient ef seandal
and slander and libel, that serious opinions are
entertained at head quarters and elsewhere, that
a sweeping reform in the corporation government
of this city is badly needed. From the phrase
ology in daily use and applied unsparingly by
one party to another, suspicion is' beginning to
assume the aspeot of conviction, that the honors
contended for are not to be possessed exclusively
for the publio good, without an.alloy of private
personal gain to the principals and their adhe
rents. It has been stated that those questions are
entertained in Albany and in Washington, and,
from a letter in the New York Herald,-a more
elaborate expression is given on the subjeot than
any opinion hitherto mooted., Yesterday the eity
was all alive, agd voters tying in every direction
to the places appointed for taking the ballot. The
municipal struggle resulted in the election of
John T. Hoffman for Mayor. There were four
candidates, Mr.'Gunther, the present Mayor, pre
sented himself for re election; Mr. Heoker, his first
appearance as a candidate, and these too were no
where on the poll. Mr. Marshall Roberts and
Mr. Hoffman had the field of oontest to them
selves, but Mr. Hoffman eras elected by a msjori*
ty of 1,311. Mr. Richard O'Gorman was elected
for Corporation Counsel.
In the fire which occurred in State street, re
ferred to in our last letter, more than half a
million of property was destroyed, including a
large amount of government property stored
there, and, in addition, the loss of a valuable
life in the person of Thos. Irwin, a fireman,
who was killed by the falling of the front wall,
and by which the poor fellow's body was fear
fully mutilated. Threat.other firemen and four
policemen, in laboring® subdue the fire, were
severely injured, but they are doing well under
professional treatment. There were other de
structive conflagrations in various districts of
the city; but really those things are of such
frequent occurrence that the events pass away
from hour to hour, and the loss or horror
caused yesterday is overshadowed and unheed
ed by the calamities of to-day.
On Monday evening a collision took place in
the Bowery between an express freight car of.
the Messrs, Adams and a Third Avenue car,
by which the latter was smashed td fragments,
a youth of fifteen "killed on the spot, and about
ten of the passengers more or less injured.

On Saturday evening a meeting of the Oom- "ferred to. There are no receipts announced,
mittee of the William Vincent Wallace memo
rial was held in Irving Hall, at which the
Treasurer, Mr. W. A. Pond, of Broadway,
submitted an interesting statement, requesting
the co-operation of the musical profession of
every grade in the Union in the object of rais
ing a subscription for the purpose of erecting a
monument to the memory of that gifted com
poser, and to provide a decent competency for
his widow and orphans. Mr. Pond reminded
his auditory that it was en American ground
Wallace had composed his greatest, werks,
that his wife and children were American born,
and that it was his intention, alter his triumphs
in Europe, to return to America and spend
the remainder of his life on American ground,
but Providence otherwise decreed.
After a hot pursuit and a vigilance extremely
creditable to the efficiency of the New York
detective officers of police, Charles Cornby,
alias Mercer, one of the alleged accomplices in
tbe murder of Otero in the city park of Brook
lyn, was captured on Saturcjaj last in Carlisle,
Penn., and conveyed in custody to Brooklyn
jail, where be was detained for examination.
On Monday the police held a searching scrutiny
on the subject of his complicity, upon which it
was decided that there was no evidence to show
that he had any part in tbe murder. Otero
was his friend, and when Cornby lost him he
had not another, and he forthwith enlisted in
a New l r ork regiment of infantry, and joined
it at Carlisle. He was sent 6ack to his regi
ment yesterday, discharged by the civil authori
ties as innocent of the charge.
In a late letter we announced that a whole
family bad been wturdered near Albany, in this
State. Upon investigation it has been dis
covered that Walrath, in a state of mental de
pression and insanity, mnrdered his wife and
daughter, as already described, and then com
mitted suicide.
One of the steamers of tbe Savannah line, the
Weybosset, which arrived on Saturday, and
put into her berth at pier 13 North river, had
500 bales of cotton on board. On Monday
morning the captain (Parish) commenced un
loading his ship, a process which was speedily
and successfully carried out until evening, by
which fithe ahoht 3(j0 bales were unshipped
and safely lodged in 'store. \]fith a vjeiy to
speedy return, Captain Parish had taken in
some goods as part of his return cargo! Yes
terday (Tuesday) morning, at half-past four
o’clock, a vapor \yas discovered issuing from
the hold at the forecastle, which was instantly
examined, and found that the vapor proceeded
from fire in the cotton still on board—about 140
bales. Measures were instantly taken to sub
due the lire and save the property, and, by the
active working of a conple of fire engines, the
hold of the ship was soon filled with water,
which, of course, extinguished the fire, but not
without damage to the cotton, which, to a cer
tain (extent, had been damaged by the fire.
The quantity of water pumped' into the hold
submerged the ship to a considerable depth,
but it shall be discharged without delay,
and as the injury done to her deck and hull
has been very trifling, the Weybossett will be
in a short time in a position to resume her
trips oa the line between New York and Sa
vannah- In our inquiries 'on the pier we for
tunately came in contact with a gentleman
who took pains to afford us every information.

On Monday morning tbe stock market was
unsteady, exhibiting a want ot confidence, but
towards the close of operations things assumed a
fairer aspect, and became strong, attended with a
small advance, and Government Securiti
was steady and firm. In some cases a different
opinion prevailed, inasmuch as sales were effected
in some instances at lower rates. Gold was firm,
opening at 148, then declining 1-8, rose again
speedily and finally closed at 148 1-4. Yester
day the stock market was firm, and towards the
close a sharp advance was realized npon almost
all United States Securities. The Erie and
the Michigan Southern each advanced 3 8, and
the Northwestern sprung op 1 3-8. Government
securities are steady, and some had a small *d>
vance. In Gold the business was firm. The
opening price was 1481 8, succeeded by a rise to
1-2, and the dosing price declined to the figure
at which the day’s business commenced.
On Saturday the cotton market was in a fe
verish condition. Holders were expecting a
regular tumble in prices, and with all their skill
they could not conceal their desire to effect
sales. Buyers were pressed and urged by
strong inducements to become purchasers, and
still the market flagged, and the sales effected
were chiefly to'spiuaers for immediate use and
for local consumption. The trade for export
K ed at a stand still, and yet from two ver-
i of the day’s transactions it would appear
conclusive that some operations had taken
place in that direction. One version is that
there were 3,400 bales disposed of, whilst
another records only 1700 bales as the amount
of business done. The rates were—Upland,
37, 4!>, 51; Florida, 37, 50, 51; Mobile, 38, 50,
52 ; New Orleans and Texas, 38, 51, 52. The
receipts were 1060 bales. The receipts on
Monday were larger than those of any day
since the commencement of the war, making a
total of 16,829 bales, conveyed in twenty-seven
ships, steamers and sailers, five of which were
from New Orleans, four from Apalachicola, six
from Mobile, two from Charleston, two from
Jacksonville, one each from Alexandria and
Indianola, two from Wilmington, and four
from Savannah—the Chase, the Weybosset, the
Euterpe, steamers, and the schooner Francis
Satterly. Besides the cargoes of these there
were nearly 900 bales received by railroads.
The temper of the 'market was very unset
tled. Holders were still desirous of effecting
sales, and offered freely at lower rates. Some
were unwilling to make any concession, and
held on to the close, whilst others, after great
reluctance to yield, consented "to lower figures,
and realized, but not to any considerable ex
tent. The sales were only 2,000 bales, at a
great variety of currency, as follows: Upland,
88, 47, 49, 51; Florida, 38, 48, 50, 52; Mo
bile, 39, 48, 50, 52; New Orleans, 40, 4#, 50,
53. Yesterday the market lost the improved
tone, and prices receded. This declension is
attributed to the excessive receipts above re-
and sales were 12,000 bales, panging in value
from 43 to 50 for Middlings. There are some
interesting tabular details of the cotton market
for the quarter ending 50th of November. The
receipts for the month of November were 98,-
394 bales, and the exports 53,132* and for
the quarter commencing the 1st of September
the receipts were 318,354, and the exports for
the same period 127,880 bales. In a circular
issued by Messrs. Neill Brothers & Co.,
amongst other items, set forth that the quanti
ty of tbe old crop on hand at 1st of May last
was 1,650,000 bales, and the new crop on the
1st of September about 400,000; that out of
those two items combined there were delivered
to the 1st of November 1,900,000 bales, and
they calculate that there are yet to come to
market for the remainder of the cotton year,
to the 1st of September next, only 960,000
bales. This, we presume, will be interesting to
your readers. • Cicerone

We learn form the New York Herald of Sun
day, 8d inst., that a destructive fire occurred in
New York about one o’clock on Saturday morn
ing, in the store kept by Charlee Squire, jf., and
used as a place of free storage. The building
waa aituated on Bridge, Pearl and State streets,
and was a five story store, owned by John
8tuart. The firemen were soon on the spot, but
the flames had made such headway that all effort*
to save it were futile.
Large quantities of cotton, tobacco, wooL
Ac., were stored in the building, very little of
which was saved.
While the firemen and police were steadily
engaged in fighting against the devouring ele
ment, the walls were seen to totter and fall
with a tremendous crash, and buried beneath
their ruins a fireman named Thomas Irving, a
member of Engine Company No. f. His body
was cut in half, and one arm severed from the
shoulder. He was about 25 years of age, ^nd
leaves a wife, but no children. Michael Wha
len and Michael OHearo, of No. 12 Engine,
and E. Clark, of No. 9, were also severely
hurt. Officers O’Donnell, Snyder, Farly and
John Moran, of the Second Precinct, were
buried in the ruins, but escaped with only
slight injuries. :,; r
When the Bridge street wall fell the Brick
broke in the doors and windows in the base
ment of No. 1 Bridge street, occupied by Jno.
O’Donnel as a porter house and dwelling,
damaging the premises to the amount of $100.
The building is owned by Peter Nailor. Mr.
O’Donnel’s damage by water will be about $50;
insured for about $2,000 in the Metropolitan
Insurance Company. The merchandise in the
warehouse was owned by the following parties,
and will be damaged probably to the extent of
seventy-five per cent, on the valne- With the
exception of the government, the owners have
insurances, and in most cases fqr the full value
