LATE foreign newe. Liverpool, May 31. . Lot ton. Only a small amount of bust* smervs was done m cotton at this day’s market Holders were, notwithstanding, tolerably firm and our previous (mutations we e obtained for 1500 bales. June I.—The sales of cotton to-day are 500 to 1000 bales, with a very dull and llat market, but without general variation in price; al though holders have great difficulty in making sales without some coucessmns from previous rates. June 2.—There has been very moderate extent of business done in cotton to-day, the sales being scarcely 1500 bags, all to the trade Comprising 50 f’ernams 8 1-4 J. to 8 1-2 J., 40 Maranhams 7 0 4.1. to 7 7-8., 20 Egyptians 9 l-2d. to 10d‘, Snrats 4*l. tool, and the rest Americans, chiefly from 5 l-2d to 7 l-4d.- Prices are without much perceptible altera tion, although the tone of the market is deck dcdly heavy and flat. June fi.—The cotton market still continues without the least improvement either in the demand or in p ices. The business to-day is again very limited, the total sa.es not exceed ing 1500 bags, consisting principally of Amer ican description-', but including 19'JSurats fit. to 1 7-Bd, and UK) Brazil 8 i-4d. to 8 1-2. Correspondence of tne Journal of Commerce. Liverpool, 3J June, 1811. Since \vc last wrote you per Great Western our Cotton Market has remained in a very dull state, and the buyers still hav mg the advan tage, prices are a slude lower. At no former period wasthere so large a stock in Liverpool, hut the shortness of your crop and the known i fact of the Spinners holding light stocks, j helps to sustain prices. In Ii ll) the quantity : of Cotton in the Carriers warehouses in Man- j Chester cuntir.ued to decrease for nine weeks | when the Spinners aga.n began to stock l themselves. Now it has boeu regularly do-. j creasing ft t twelve vvocks, which 2'** unprece- • dented ; and as yet we have i.o symptons of any prospect of Letter trade to induce thorn to come to tins market for a quantity sufficient to relieve it. Now nearly all the mills are jdl it being Manchester race week, and it is i feared a greater number than have hitherto. w;il, when they resume, work short, time ,and hostilities having dgamico.nujece.l with China, the contusion into which we wore likely to be thrown by an early dissolution of Parliament, the uncertainty of what Ministry we are to have, and the not over abundance of money, ptill Lave their client on depressing; there .s no doubt very great distress in the country at tins moment, and ladures occasionally .akmg place and among the number two Banks have sus pended the.r payments. Thesales'of Cotton lor the week ended on the 28th ult. were only 12,290 bales, of which 9000 were Upland at 59-8 a 7 1-4 : 4090 Orleans, at 5 1-4 a 8 1-4; 1 170 Alabama ar.d Mobile at 51-4 at 7 ; and | 50 Sea island at 19 J- fa 151 per lb. The business ol the last live days is estimated at 7590 bales. At the public sale of Bon Islands last week, out of 2100 bags offered, only 120 were sold at a reduction of 1-2 a 1 l-2d per lb. The import into Liverpool since the Ist January has been 010,000 bales, against 710,- 000 bales to tins time iast \ear, and the sup ply from the United States is 507,000 bales against 0-2,000 in loll), or 115.000 sales iess than it was then. Our present slock is es timated at 570,000 bales, agamsl 950,000 ai the same time iast year, and the stock of A mericau is about 457,000 bales, or 133,000 bales more than it then was. The Grain Markets are dull and only a limited business has been done in bonded Flour at 20s a 22s tid per bid; the duty re mains yviihout change. Some of our most intelligent Corn Factors consider our slocks of home’grown Grain very light indeed, and fs.>y they do not know wliac ive should do it it iv,is not for the Foreign Wheat which is now faking out oi bond. \Vo look forward With much-anxiety to our growing crop to give some relief to the country. Ail accounts agree that it is very promising with the pros pect of its being oar.y. V* e expect ihe Corn question vv.il come on in the House of Com mons to night, it has and will produce great excitement. All util of doors seems to think th ‘tsome modification is necessary, so that we hope a relaxation will take place by a re daction in the sliding scale, or a moderate fixed duty. The safes of Tobacco last moutii Were 45i hlids., and prices have rather given way. Turpentine is again lower 150 J hois good qual ity having boon sold at 1 Is Id h 1 Ls 2d per iv.vt; chiefly tiie former price. P. L. Os the two Banks alluded to, one was at Whitby, and the other in Surovysouiy, but they are not of importance. Havre, May 91. — Cotton. —During the early pari of the week, there was a good at tendance of buyers for the trade, aqd the bus ji ess transacted was to a pretty fair extent, with some trilling inquiry also for transit.— The purchases for consumption however be ing completed, the market again relapsed into a dull state, buyers, in the present unsettled and critical position of affairs in England, ox T Jobbing the utmost caution, and notwithstan ding the favorable accounts from our manu facturing departments, restricting their opera, lions to the supply of more necessities, The sales within t lie last few days have, consequent ly been on a very confined scale, and can barely be said to form a true criterion as to the steadiness of prices ; we therefore, maim tain our previous quotations, observing, how ever, that any attempt on the part of holders to realize largely, would prove abortive, unless perhaps at a concession of some import nee on their pretensions. Our stock of goo.l Cotton, which hith erto been inconsiderable, will now be in creased by the- recent arrivals, and oiler a j greater scope for selection than has been the , case for some time past. The prospects oil trade upon the whole, are nevertheless far! from enlivening for although there is nothing! in oirdiplo.ii tic relations w.th t t'.er countries 1 to excite apprehension, still the agitation of | the political questions in Great Britain, and other circumstances, cannot fail to create a certain degree of uneasiness, pending their! decision, among the mercantile community in general. The imports of Cotton during the present month have amounted to 49,767 hales, and the outgoings to 2*2,000 bales, principally for consumption, very little having boon taken for other purposes. Sales from 23d to 31st May, 5645 bales, viz;—2,s7o bales, N. Orleans, 7<f. a IlOf; 1,371 do. Mobile, 84f. a 100.* ; 1,0*22 do. Up land. 73f. a lo*2f; *25 do. iSea Island, 239 r; 48 do.

June *2.—The Commerce of Monday last, which reached us this morning, furnishes us with the commercial news from 1 tavre of the 2i)th ult., stating that the Cotton market of that port remained firm, but with out any activity, the transactions of the day having been confined to 38 bales Louisiana at 80 to 80 l-2f. 86 Georgia at Sl*', and *243 bales Mobile at 8 If. to lo6f. The following remarks respecting the grow ing crop, are from the Mobile Commercial Registe-, <>: the 231 of June.

The New Orleans Bulletin publishes a well written communication on this subject, signed by B. Payne, an extensive cotton grower, de precating the injurious effects on the interest of the planters, of giving exaggerated accounts of prolific crops. He thinks, too, that the har vest of the present year will be deficient; and as the argument for his opinion is br.ef, we sta'e it as follows ;n his own words : ‘•When I became a planter, my enquiries soon satisfied my mind that every gentleman had, sui generis, a way of guessing peculiar to himself, and a fixed principle ou which to form his opinion. This induced me to make a planting register, in which the time of plant ing—doming up—growth—blooming—open- ing &i, c. were all carefully noted, with obser vations on tbo weather. The doing of tfiis has given me the following results. My cot ton was planted the various years stated, about tiie usual time that planters generally do their planting,'and never varied more than a day or so generally from the same time each year. Now the result “ The crop of cotton of 1895 was in bloom the 4th day of June, and the crop yielded 1,- 590,01 id bales. Tiie crop of 1837 was in bloom the 28th day of May, and yielded 1,- 800,000. The crop of 1898 was in bloom the 1 ftli day of June, and yielded 1,950,000. The crop of 1899 was in bloom the 24th day ol May, and yielded 2,200,090. The crop of l8h) was wi bloom the tith day Os June, and yields supposed about 1,600,000. The crop of cotton of this year (1841) was in bloom the 10th day of June, and what it may y.elJ time will tell. •‘it is also a fact that the blooming of cotton and tiie coming of frost in the tail bear some relation to each other calculated to strike the mind of an attentive observer, and goes strong ly to prove that when we have a backward spring, we have a frost correspondency early. The consequence is that we have our crops shortened or increased by it. Thus for ex ample in the yeir 1836, we had frost the 14th of October, in 1897 we had frost tiie 27th Oct. In 1898 we had frost tiie 7di of October. In 1899 we had frost the 7i!i November. In 1810 we had frust the 1 Till of October. I speak of frost sufficient to kill the cotton plant.” The data may tie of some use as far as they go, but, they seem to us altogether too slender a foundation to build a definitive opinion upon. We should prefer the present condition of the crops as a criterion toariy speculative argument of the kind, even if it were the lesult oi much longer experience. Foreign Missions, &c. —Extract of a let ter from Washington to the Editor of the Bal timore Patriot; it is now fully ascertained that the Hon. John Sergeant, member of Con gress from the Philadelphia district of Penn sylvania, is to take the mission to London : That the Hon. Daniel Jenifer, a member of the iast Congress from Maryland, is to have tiie mission to Austria and Thai Col. C.S. Todd, of Kentucky, is to go to the Court of Spain, at Madrid. “ Old Ken tuck” thus, you see, comes in for her full share of the “spoils,” as she has now a for eign Minister, a Charge dP Affaires to Texas, a Governor of lowa, and the Attorney General of tiie United States; the latter a noble ap-> pointment and acceptable to ail.

The editor of the Plaquemine Gazette, aftc-r computing the area of Louisiana at 49 millions of acres thus ailols the different soils : ‘‘Sugar 250,090 acres, rice 259,901), cotton 2,100,000 making in all not quite 9,090,000 of acres. A reat, portion of the remaining 27,000,009, is yet in a wild, uncultivated s’ate. The soil in fifing a laptei Bo the raising of su< d",c( ttoi, - ice, and the climate not being suitable for cuniva ti nos small gra n, it is considered oi little value except for its timber.” The editor ot tiie Cour ier t imiks the estimate for sugar, rice and cot ton, not tnore than half large enough. From the GloUe. Mr. Clay introduced to-dav the report on the Secretary's project of a Fiscal Bank of the Uluted States. They resolve it all into a Bank of the United States, aider the model of the last The committee declare that the establish ment of a National Bank is indispensable. That it is to be regarded as a settled ques tion that it is constitutional. That the question of expediency would not he discussed. That it is the deliberate opinion of the com mittee, that an immense majority of the people are in favor of and cail fora United States Bank, and tlv.it it shall be established at this special session. Tnat the committee determined to dismiss all experiments, and take lor the bas>s of tt.e new Fiscal Bank the last charter of the Bank of the United States. ‘ That the capital shall consist of thirty mil lions, which may be increased to fifty mil lions. That the dividends be limited to seven per cent., if deficient one year, to be made up by the surplus of subsequent years ; surplus over seven per cent, to go to the United States. Thai its loans and discounts shall not exceed its capital more thin seventy-five per cent. That its affairs shall be open to the inspec tion of the Secretary of the Treasury, Com mittees of Congress, and stockholders. That when its notes exceed three times the spec.e in its vaults, further loans shall not be made. That no paid officer of the Bank shall receive accommodations by loan. ; That embezzlement by any officer shall be I held as felony. These, as far as we could catch them, were . the principal leatures of the report. The report repudiates altogether the two features of the Bank introduced by Mr. Ewing* jto satisfy constitutional objections. The most material is that which, in Mr. Ewing’s project, required the assent of the States to the estab lishment of branches within them. This, the report treats as yielding tiie question of the ! constitutional power of Congress to establish a National Bank, it argues elaborately this question, and insists on the establishment of : branches without the assent of the States, to ’ be essential to the system contemplated by the 1 committee. Another point on which the report wholly ! repudiates the Secretary’s plan, is that which j proposes to establish the principal Bank in tins ! District, fa far from doing this, the plan of : the rcpo. takes the whole banking power out of the District, not even permitting an office J of discount and deposit to exist within the Dis trict. It proposes to have a board of directors as a board of coat ml within the District; but no bank holding any part of the capital, or pos sess:n T any power to discount. This, so far from laving hold of the right of Congress to j create a banking corporation, as the root from which the States would draw branches, abjures altogether the authority of Congress over this District as furnishing constitutional power to establish a National Bank in the ten miles, to spread its branches over the l nion ; but, on the contrarv, claims the power as applicable to the United States only, by denying even a branch with banking power within the D;s (trie*. These are the two essential particulars, on which it is understood the President holds views diametrically opposite to the committee; and the committee, notwithstanding the adju ration of the National Intelligencer, boldly de termined to push the President to the wall, and make him surrender at discretion. It is said by some of the friends of Mr. Clay, that it has been ascertained in caucus the measure can be carried in Congress without regard to the constitutional objections which Mr. Ewing’s proposed plan was intended to remove. We infer, therefore, that Mr. Clay is willing to try conclusions with the President before the peo ple, if he dare venture on a veto. The W hig Party. —Harsh language, the following, to emanate from a leading and in fluential Whig Journal: And what is their reward ! How has this truly confiding and patriotic Party been treated bv those to whom they have entrusted tiie great work of national reform ? Look at the ha if and half message of the Executive; the silence of the administration cm the subject ol a Bankrupt Law; the c ol J and heartless res ponge of the secretary of fla Treasury to a call lor the project of a National Bank; the tardy act of the gcrarnment in removing obnoxious politicians trum office ; and finally, the conduct of the whig parly in Congress, and the reader has at once an answer to our questions. So far as its leaders and deputations can dis grace a party, the whig party has been, is dis graced by those who represent it in the capital. With a large numerical majority, they have meanly truckled to the minority ; and with the power to carry out all the great measures which they were elected to establish —either from petty personal jealousies, local feelings, or the desire to advance the interest of certain ambitious politicians, they have trilled away their time, exhibited a disgrace ful disregard of the feelings and expectations of their constituents, and made tho very name of whig a mere bye-word, conveying to tiie mind tiie idea of a body of men who have no bond of union, and who are ready at any mo ment to sacrifice their principles to their per sona! objects.—N. Y. Courier, Froru the Albany Artis. THE FISCAL BANK. The project of the Secretary seems to meet with disfavor at ali hands—save from one, and that by no means an.unimportant quarter. l’lie Courier and Enquirer assails the pro ject tliiough a column of denunciation, touch ing the name, the plan, tiie location, Stc. &,c., starting vvilli the lollowing postulate: “Mu. Ewing’s Bank Project- —This, it cannot be denied, lias caused universal disap pointment* It is not such a bank as tiie whig parly desire; it is not such a bank as tiie ex igences of the country require; and it is not .-*ich project for a bank as ihe people of (tie Utilled .States had a right to expect from Mr. Ewing.” The American declines even to publish the bill, winch appears at large in tHe Washing ton and sevetal oi’ the New York papers, say ing, “The MadLonian publishes at length the bill for crealing this fiscal agent,’ but as tiie synopsis of Mr. Ewing presented its main lea lures, and as, moreover, it is condemned, so far as we know, vvilli universal consent, by all tiie practical men of this city, \ V e do not think it worth while to encumber our columns with it.” The Commercial Advertiser, more comply ing than its “whig” associates just quoted, pub lishes the bill, and remarks. “It comes not in the Ibrin that we could most desire, and before it shall become a law it may be modified in some of its features.— But there are difficulties in I tie way, which • those at a distance cn neither discern nor ap predate. We left the seal of Government yesterday, where, during a flying visit, we were not inattentive observers. It is our opin ion— reluctantly Ibrmed—that a charter for such a hank as tiie great mass of the co vmer-* cial and business men of the country most de sire, cannot now he obtained. And in regard j I.) the plan before us, although doubts are en tertained bv some as to the wisdom and prae- I licability of some of its provisions, vet we do I know that there are those among tiie ablest j and clearest heads who believe that it will work well and answer every purpose.” The dladisonian likes tiie name, if not the i thing, “ Because it expresses its purpose and char- i acter. Fisc signifies public treasure, revenue, exchequer. Ban!: signifies a bench or coun ter, or a repository of money. The lerm Fis cal Bank of the United States, therefore, sig- i nifies tiie revenue counter or repository of tiie United Slates- in oilier words, tiie agent and repository of the public funds.” But the Madisonian gives a Iso the follow ing positive assurance of the favor with which Mr. Tyier views the project of this “fiscal bank:” “ We not only ‘have no doubt of its having tiie approbation of a mnj >rit v of the beads of departments,’ as remarked bv a city cotempo rary, (tiie Intelligencer,) but vve can confident ly sta'e that il has, in its general features, re ceived the approbation of the President, which is the most important, since his concurrence Is absolutely necessary to its passage.” Fat cattle. —The Harrisburg Keystone s'ates that from the 15th April to the 17'h June Ihe number of fat cattle which passed through that place for eastern markets, was 8115. The Richmond Star says:—“A gentleman, for whose word vve will vouch, lias just re turned from Charlottesville, and informs us of the extra, id inary fact that there is living near that place, a negro woman, aged one hundred and thirteen years, who is now having a growth of her third set of teeth. She already has three white, sound and handsome new front teeth—a most extraordinary circum stance, but of its truth there is no doubt.” Indian Coun. —According to the census re turns. ihe annual crop of Indian Corn of North Carolina is thirty four ‘millions of bushels. — In the production of this important item, there- ; fore. North Carolina stands second on the list; —the annual crop of Tennessee, which is the largest producer, being upwards of forty-two millions of bushels.—Balt. Amer. First Newspaper. —lt is stated in the For eign Journals by E. Grochet, of Brussels, from a marcfina! note in the band of Adrian de Butt, a D moii monkish writer of the 15th century, that the first newspaper of which any trace can be found, was printed in 1455. It con tained in'elligence of the peace of Karaninn with the King of Cyprus, and the conquest by the Turks in 1454. Great Menpicitv— According to a recent calculation made by M. Villeneuve Barge ment, the number of Mendicants in France amounts to 178,000 persons : of these 40,000 are aged, 32,000 sickly and if, 76,000 are children and 30,000 healthy men and women. This calculation shows there ia. otto medteant in every 166 inhabitants. Cedar wood (chipped) is a good prevention agahst moth, or the little red ants which in fest clos-ts or damp places in summer.

To-day the Committee ot Finance in the Senate reported their scheme ot a U. S. Bank —and it is a Bank out and out; in all its main features the oid U. S. Bank over. Ewing’s project to gain over Tyler, by concessions, and reconcile tiie measure, to some appearance at least, with his constitutional scruples, are con temptuously thrown overboard. It was deter mined in caucus, it is said, that the teiture leaving it to tfie States to accept of branches was at all hazards to be stricken out. The constitutional question is therefore uakedly bluffed up to Tyler. If it passes Congress in this shape, he cannot help vetoing it. The Whigs must expect this or they must have the most profound contempt lor bun. Mr. Tyler’s friends appear to have no doubt of his course. The poor Secretary seeius to have no ap probation or sympathy from either his friends or his foes. After Mr. Ciay had finished his Report from tiie Finance Committee rejecting his Lotions as to a U. S. Bank, Mr, Calhoun commenced on his Treasury Report, and con tinued the process of demolition and attrition begun by Mr. Woodbury, The fabrications and inventions of tins Report axe abs ilutely disgraceful to Mr. Ewing as a man. Do not be surprised, if in Ivyo weeks lrom this time, the Whig party and the present Cabinet are dissolved. That is at present, tha aspect of things here, Webster has counted all the Democratic Members of the House—a thing uuiieard of before, and Mr. Choate, it is saul, opposed strenuously in Committee the Bank bi 1 repor ted by Clay. It is also rumoured ifiat tiiere has been high talk in the Cabinet on account of Bel!, leltiug out some Cabinet secrets. — Tiie President probably has found out that he is more of a spy of Mr-Clay’s than Ins advi ser.—Charleston Mercury. Promise vs Performance.—No party was ever more profuse in promise than the whigs belore the late election, & none Ins ever been more meagre in performance, They promised tfiat as soon as the result of the late election was known to bo iu their favor, business should become brisk and the prices of labor, produce and land should rise. Well, the result has been known for seven inoiitfis, yat businasg fias not bean brisk, nor have prices risen. They promised that proscription for opinion’s sake should cease, yet they have displaced more officers on this ground than any admin istration ever d.d in tiie same time. They promised that unnecessary public of fices should be abolished, yet they have in creased the number of such offices. They promised to introduce purer men into office, yet they have given an especial prefer ence tqjiipe layers and others of questionable character. r They promised that the post office business should be better managed, yet it is actually worse managed, They promised that they would diminish the public expenditures, yet they have already proposed a great increase of those expenses. They promised to tax the people lightly, yet they have already proposed a great increase of the taxes. Ail tins goes to show that the “celebrated Roman Consul more than two thousand years ago” was well acquainted with the nature of whiggery, and that lie was right in asserting that tew things were more different than the professions of some men by which tiiey ob tained office and their practices after they had obtained it.—Pennslvanian. We would suggest to Mr. Tyler the proprie ty of appointing anew officer at Washington, to “bo called the regulator of accounts or some such title. Messrs. Woodbury and Wright have proved on tiie floor of the Senate, mat Mr. Ewing knows nothing of figures, and the Boston Transcript, a whig paper, proves from data furnished by the Lostinas.er General, that that officer is entirely mistaken in the sum which he supposes is charged for. the transportation of the mail upon the rail road. There ought to be somebody appointed to cor rect the blunders of the cabinet officers before they are published to the world.—lb.d. The Hon. Jesse F.

Harrison in elfigj —and the Whigs, whose settled faith it is, that electioneering means lying, cried out that it was a sun of the President, who had receiv ed instruction from Washington to offer this public indignity to Mr. Van Bureu’s compe titor, Tne case was very much like the jnes enu John Van Buren son of the ex President lives in the city of Albany, where he quietly, and we understand successfully practices Law : To the Editor of tfye Enquirer, S.r: My attention has heen drawn to an extract in your paper of tne llih ins', from the Richmond Whig. It is in the following words: “We note in the vote in favor of the amend ment of Mr. Adams, respecting Abolition pe titions, the names of many Locofoc” members —among others the name ot John Pan Buren the son, we believe, of Martin . All tnese worthies last year, when the game wrs to make capital in the Souili for the little Kin derhooker, voted the other wav. Out upon such hypocrites!”—Tuesday’s Whig. You state in regard thereto, that the Van Buren, who is a member of C ingress, is not the son o! the late President. In this vou are right. However proud l might be to be allied to a person of such eminent abilities and exalted chaiacter, a regard to truth would oblige me to state, that I am not related to the iaie Pres ident, Martin Van Buren, excepting perhaps in a very remote degree, but more particularly sc, when this erroneous circumstance is made the occasion of an unjust attack upon him. In regard, sir, to my vote, in common with several of my democratic colleagues, upon the question lelerred to, we ask our Democratic brethern of the South not to mistake our views. ‘Plie Democracy of the North, are now as they always have been, with the South, on the exciting and long agitated subject of Aboli tionism. We are desirous of having it put at rest, and therefore we ask that the question of the right ol petition maybe separated fromthat seeking the abolit.on of slavery, and that the latter may not, by allying itself to the firmer, (and which is held equally sacred hy the North and South,) acquire additional power to do evil. Respectfully, your obedient servant. JOHN VAN BOREN. H. of Rep., June 12, 1341.
