whatever may be the cotirso of the Liver pool market. But should the latter be supported at*or over 7d. per lb. for Mid dling, it is quito probable thut this mar ket will advance rapidly as soon as the weight of receipts and stock is u little eased. With these views, holders show remarkable firmness, notwithstanding the fall of pi. to jd. at Liverpool, advised by the Niagara, and tho expectation of a further fall by subsequent steamers ; and instead of having any decline to notice, wo have to roport a decided advance upou the prices of this day-week, in most of our markets. Cbov.—There is nothing to change crop estimates. At New Orleans receipts are still liberal, the excellent condition of botli roads and rivers having facilitated delivery from the most distant points; hikl an excess of the total at that port is not improbable, the chief extension of cultivation having occurred in the South west. But should there be an increase there, it will probably be more than coun terbalanced by a decrease in the older States. Kxtruct from T. J. Stewart <S Co.’s Cir cular, dated New York, March 30, ’SB. The %op question appears to have lost its influence on prices. It appears to be generally conceded that the crop will be a moderate one. There is nothing in tho receipts to indicate a larger delivery than 2,900,000 hales, although buyers appear to be prepared for 11,000,000 bales. If the receipts fall off for a fortnight suffi ciently to induce an apprehension of a crop under 2,900,000 hales, there is very little doubt but that it would inaugurate a decided speculation on this side, in a measure irrespective of current Liverpool dates. ♦ —- I.KTTKIIN ANII CIRCULARS. ItV Til K PKKBIA. Extracts from letters dated “Manciikstkii, March lit, 1858. “This and the Liverpool markets arc very Hat and drooping. Here yarns are down nearly a penny from the highest point, and goods are proportionately low. At Liverpool Middling Orleans cotton is ottering to-day at 7d., money very easy, mid weather spring-like.” “Manciiksthh, March 19, 1858 “Things here continue in a very unsat isfactory state as regards the mills, of which very many are still working short time or standing idle altogether.” Extract from Wright Junior Co.’s circular, dated Livkhi'OOL, March 111, 1858. We closed our circular advices on the 12th instant on a dull cotton market, with prices tending in favor of buyers. The Africa's and City of Washington’s ac counts aru since to hand, and being more Mattering fur future supplies of the staple, have induced holders to press the recent import (which is again swelled by free arrivals) for immediate salo. Tho trade taking advantage of this disposition, and receiving a share of present landings di rect from the ship, see no reason to add largely to their stock ; and, though the amount so held cannot be otherwise than small, the knowledge of spinners’ orders being acted upon at the American ship ping ports is an additional motive for re stricting operations in this market. We have consequently experienced a very limited inquiry, and the daily sales aver age about 4000 bales of all kinds, at re ducing and irregular prices. On Wednes day and since, so eager have sellers been to secure the profit on invoices that some very low oilers have been accepted. Fair Boweds at 7Jil, one lot of Middling Or leans at 7d, ll£d for Mobiles and good middling Apalachicolas, and the same price for barely middling Texas ; thus indicating the expected influence of in creasing arrivals, and which, coupled with tiie uncertainty still overhanging the political horizon, operates to depress trade in the manufacturing districts.— Speculation also is more circumscribed, the Bank of England having signified their intention to discontinue the pructicc of discounting for Hill brokers, tending to restrain the feeling, and encourage only legitimate trade. Money matters are quiet, and, with large arrivals of the precious metals, lower rates of discouut arc thought to he of early realization, but as they are already sufficiently easy for all practical purposes, it is evident that other considerations keep the com merce of the country from extending.— East India accounts continue favorable, and are stimulating for our productions, but everything gives place to a vague ap prehension of an unsettled future, and we close heavily to-day with estimated sales of 4000 hales, 1000 to speculators and exporters, at a decline of fully Ad to jjd per lb on last week’s prices, which is about Id per lb below the highest rates of the year. The total tales of the week amount to 31,210 bales, of which 21,010 are Ameri can. Speculators have taken 3,000 and exporters 2,840, leaving 24,470 hales of all kinds to the trade. Tho import for same time is 10(5,690 bales, of which 85,44(5 arc American. The quantity known to be ut sea from American ports is about 182,000 hales. The Manchester market for goods and yarns has assumed a very quiet aspect, and producers show more inclination to take orders, at a reduction of Jd to Ad per lb on the latter, and 3d to 4Ad per piece on the former, without, however, leading to much business, the only de man 1 for the moment being for the East- ; ern markets, at prices so very low as : scarcely to appear bona tide. Extract from (100. Holt & Co.'s circu lar, dated Livkkpooi., March 19, 1858. There has been a rapid decline in the value of cotton since our last circular.—- In American descriptions wo reduce our quotations Ail per 111, placing middling I'plands tt It-lMf Mobile 7d : and Or leans 7j)d. The committee of brokers place fair Uplands TJd; Mobile 7|d; and Orleans 7Ad. Brazils are similarly reduced. Egyp tians, of which tho stock is gradually in creasing, while the domntnl continues very moderate, have declined full Id per lb from the highest point. Surats for the week are about Jd per lb lower; but iu quoting tho foregoing decline, wo may say that such lias been ami still is the ir regularity and pressure in some quarters to sell, that even lower rates have in casual instances been accepted—but such business has uot been general. The present state of things docs not npprur to arise from any chnuge in the various considerations generally supposed to govern our proceedings. Tins depres sion, almost amounting to a panic, is to be mainly, if not entirely, attributed to a large import, long deferred, suddeuly coming upon us, the bulk of which, showing even at present prices a consid erable profit, is most eagerly aud unduly pressed for sale, altogether iu dispropor . tion to tho very moderate demand that Mias been experienced from the trade. COLUMBUS: LAiIUKST CITY CIRCULATION. Tuesday Moralßg, April 6, IMS* See reading matter on every page. Small Pox. We learn from the Kutaw (Ala.) Whig that there have been several cases of ! Small I’ox, at or near Bridgeville, io Fickcns county, in that State. The dis i ease was carried there by a man by the ; iiumo of Hughes, who contracted it while in New York. Telegraphic dispatches state that every member of the House of Representatives in Congress, favorable to the admission of Kansas with the Lccompton Constitu tion, was iu his seat at the time Mr. Stephens called up the bill on Wednes day, with the exception of Mr. Caruthers, of Missouri, who was abseut in conse quence of sickness. The utmost anxiety was manifested to learn the fate of the bill, and the galleries of the hall were crowded. In view of tho result of the proceedings on that day, correspondents predict that the question will be finally disposed of on a roport of a committee composed of the members of both Houses of Congress. ♦ Will (lie South Sulimtl ! The crises upon the slavery question, which has been so long pending before (lie country, lias at length arrived, audit behooves tho people of the South to con sider whether they will longer submit to the encroachments upon their rights, which are being continually made by the unscrupulous fanatics of the North, or whether they will plant themselves upon their reserved rights, and at every hazard protect them. Yesterday the final vote was taken in the House upon the Kansas Bill, and ere this it has been determined whether we shall have any more slave States, or whether slave territory shall he confined to its piesent circumscribed limits. The quest ion is, not whether slavery will be perpetuated in Kansas, or whether it will be abolished imme diately after its admission as a State. It is the principle that the South is fighting for. It is whether any more slave States shall be admitted, and in this question the South has a vital and a practical in terest, and upon its resulting iu her fu vor depends tho perpetuity either of the existence of the Union or of the Institu tion of slavery. If tho Union survives such an outrage upon the rights of the South, the institution of slavery will soon be numbered among the things that were, for Hushed with such a victory after such a hard contested battle, the abolitionists will gain new strength and new courage, and will not rest until they crush out the last vestige of African slavery on this continent. Should Congress refuse to admit Kansas upon the terms proposed, the time for argument will have passed, and if the South is not recreant to every feeling of self-respect and of honor, she will resist the aggrossiou, even should it involve disunion, or even civil war itself. The question is not what may betiie con sequences of resistance, but whether we can submit to the wrong without a sacri fice of honor, of independence, aud every thing which a brave aud magnanimous people hold dear. If wo cannot submit without dishouor, will our people hesitate which of the two to choose, dishonor or the direst consequence, if it must be of civil war ? We hope uot. If the House should, then, refuse to admit Kansas up on the terms proposed by the Semite, the duty will devolve upou Gov. Brown to call a Convention, to determine the mode aud measure of redress, nml we know that he will uot shriuk from the performance of his duty. The Star, a journal of Los Angelos, California, states that Col. Thos. L. Kano, of Philadelphia, lately passed through San Bernardino, on his way from Wash ington to Salt Luke City. While at San Bernardino lie offered tho sum of $1,500 to any one who would carry him to the city in a fortnight. The Star supposes, from the former ceuuoctiou of Col. Kane with the Mormons, that he carried in structions for Brigham Young from Mr. Beruhiscl; but it appears that some per sons at San Bernardino, who arrested him and examined his papers, on the sus picion that he might be a Mormon emis sary, were satisfied that their impres sions were unfounded, and that he really was an ugent of President Buchanan. ♦ - A correspondent of the Macon State Press, iu a letter from Houston county, gives an account of a very shocking af fair, which ho says occurred iu the sth district of that county, on last Monday. The citizens were summoned to the resi dence of a young lady, (Miss F. II.) to see her breathe her last. The ladies who officiated iu dressing the doad body, dis covered to their astonishment, that she had, a short timo before, given birth to a child, which was uot to be seen or lieurd of. Search being made, the child was tbuud in an old store room, deposited in a basket of eottou, with a strong cotton cord passed around its neck twice, and the infant choked to death. The Eastern Shore Hail Hoad Claim. Tiie people of the Eastern Shore ap pear to be iu earnest in relation to their claim to the balance of the one million appropriation made under the act of 1835. A call, signed without distinction of party, has becu issued in Worcester county for a mass meetiug, to be held at Snow Hill on the Cth of April, to appoint delegates to tho Eastern convention, and to “adopt necessary measures to maintaiu and preserve the importance of the East ern Shore as a component part of the State, and protect ourselves from injus tice and oppression.” A similar meeting is to be held at Elkton ou the same day. The Savannah Republican of the oth inst, says : “lu the list of arrivals of vessels we notice seven cargoes of Ice, all of which have arrived here withiu the last two days, from ports in Maine.” TELEGRAPHIC. TELEGRAPHED TO THE DAILY SllK. ARRIVAL OF TIIE STKAMKII I N- 1) I_ A. N . ADVANCE IN COTTON. New York, April 5, 1858. The Steamship Indian arrived at Port land to-day, with advices from Liverpool to the 21th ult., being four days later than the Persia. The news by the Indiuu reports uu ad vance of one-eighth penny iu Cotton. The sales of the three days ending Wednesday afternoon, foot up 26,000 bales, of which six thousand were sold on Wednesday.— Speculators and Exporters took 3,000 bales. Middling Orleans is quoted at 7jd. to 7 3-Hid The trade of Manchester is reported more active. Money and Consols unchanged. From Washington. • Washington, April 5. Kansas matters were not acted on to day. ♦- Fire in (lie llay. The fine new ship Sarah Judkins, of Bath, Me , Cupt. Smith, lying at the West Pass, loading for Liverpool, and having about nine hundred aud sixty bales of cotton on board, was discovered to be on fire on Saturday morning at about 3 o'clock. The crew and stevedores had barely time to escape in the boats before she was completely enveloped in tiames fore aud aft. Early iu the morn ing the steamer Harriet, Capt. Wing, went to her assistance ; strenuous efforts were made to unshackle her chain cables and tow her upon the flats, which did not prove successful, also to scuttle her; but owiug to a short chopping sea that was raised by the south-east wind, they did not succeed in making any aperture suffi cient to sink the ship, until the bold and somewhat dangerous experiment was re sorted to of running the bow of the stea mer, at half speed, into the side of the burning vessel. After some two hours application of this battering ram process, which was far from being deemed safe or agreeable by some uninitiated spectators, whose curiosity had induced them to go down in the Harriet, the ship was sunk in about twelve feet water. Some four or five hundred bales of cot ton will prob ably be saved in a damaged state. We understand that measures are now beiug taken to raise the wreck. The cargo was fully insured, and the ship only partially. Great credit is due Capt. Wing—had it not been for the timely assistance of the steamer Harriet but very little if any of the cotton would have been saved.— Apalachicola Advertiser, lit.(7 ult. Repiu'leit Conlition of ('oiiionfort anil Walker. A correspondent of the N. V. Herald, writing from New Orleans, March 22d, says: Senator Coruoufort, cx-Prcsident of M cxico, and Gen. Win. Walker, ex-Presi dent of Nicaragua, both residing in this city, have an eye on Mexico. Coinonfort will furnish the necessary funds to raise an army, and (Jen. Walker is to take the command. Both parties keep as quiet as circumstances will allow them to do, but they cannot keep the thing a secret.— One of their officers has already gone to Texas to take up the remains of a filibus tering army formerly formed in that country for the late struggle in Nicara gua. They intend to form a doubleheaded Presidency, and to subdue tho whole country—-of course after they succeed. 1 called on ex-President Coinonfort to day. He has leased for several months the fiue mansion known as the Lcscpps House, near the United States barracks, some two miles below the eity. There, surrounded by groves of orange trees and Magnolias, he is leading a life of quiet retirement. He spoke with regret, but without bitterness, of recent and present events iu Mexico, lie will probably not visit the North at present. —— - ♦ Good Advice. —The thousands or cripples whom rheumatism has loft with tdiffened joints, or whom palsy has bereft cf the use of their limbs, are advised to try Dr. Bragg's Arctic Liniment, which Ims never yet failed to cure u single case of the kind iu which a fair trial has been made.
