r \nstrians, and offered to place his army and ‘ na vy at the disposition of the Pope should the papal states be invaded by Austria. The latest accounts from Rome are of a war like cast. The Papal troops were actually on t l,e march to the frontier, and a high feeling of enthusiasm pervaded all ranks of the people, positive aid was expected from England—but, t [, e Paris journals say with bitterness, not from prance. The Papal garrison of Ferrara had been strongly reinforced. Switzerland. The accounts from Berne mention that the (Tovernmcnt had given orders that an account of all the horses fit for cavalry service should be prepared throughout the cantons. The capital was to be placed in a good state of defence. Important from China. Tiie following was posted at the Liverpool Exchange a day or two ago. We have yet no farther accounts. “A Colombo Times, extra, of July 15, (Cey lon) contains a very alarming rumor with regard to the relations of this country with China, and one which derives considerable probability from the recent rash conduct of Sir John Davies the Governor of Hong Kong. The report is, that the attack on the Bogne forts had roused a des perate spirit of hostility against all foreigners, but especially the English, and had led to a general rising of the people of'Canton against them. The Consuls had been compelled to leave Canton, and the Europeans were pre paring to follow them.” The above was received at Ceylon by the Haddingion steamer, which received it from the commander of a ship despatched to Calcutta for troops to reinforce the garrison at Hong Kong. F. H. Prom lire Preucli Papers. Our correspondent’s letter having been writ ten on the 27th of August, at London, we of course have later continental advices in the Paris journals to the 30th inclusive. The Constitutionnel of that date mentions the convocation of the Portuguese Cories for the 2nd of January, but adds that the Ministe rial, crisis continued, the Q,ueen insisting on nominating all the members of the Cabinet, and those whom she had invited to form a Cabinet demanding the choice of their col leagues for themselves. V ice-Admiral Parker had sailed from the Tagus for the Mediterranean, leaving only a T 4, a frigate and two steam vessels. The hues accounts from Ferrara were that the Austrian forces had not evacuated that city, and they made themselves very obnoxious to the inhabitants and the Papal authorities. The Pope is represented as equally firm and tranquil—fully p repared for whatever his ene mies may undertake. From Englsh Papers* The Great Britain —lt is reported that the attempt to get this vessel off has again failed, and that the projects to be abandoned. We do not find any mention of this in onr Paris or Liverpool papers, but the account may be in one of an earlier date. From the London Times, Aug. 28. Friday Evening. —The English funds have to day shown some tendency toward an a Ivance and Consols have closed at an improvement of nearly a quarter of a cent on yesterday’ prices. The open ing ({notation for money was 86g to 874, and although they subsequently stood at 86J-, they again rallied be fore the termination ofbusiness and left olf 87 buyers. Money continued in much demand, and applications were numerous for advances from the Bank—a cir cumstance likely to delay the modification in the rate which was yesterday alleged to be in contemplation. Aug. 23, 2 P. M. —In the Consol market business has been very dull this morning, but prices have not retrograded. For money the price opened at 874, was afterwards 87, but has now resumed the opening fraction. For account the range has been 7| to 8, the latest quotation being BS|. The Three Reduced 87|, and the Three-and-a-Q,uarter 89f. There was scarcely any business transacted in the corn market to-day, but the task of recording failures still continues, the parties announced this morning be ing Messrs. W. and J. Woodley. The liabilities are £90.000, and it is understood that the assets are cer tain to yield a considerable surplus. We have also from Liverpool the report of two fail ures —Messrs. J. & F. O’Neal & Co., and W. Ro wett & Co. Both firms were in the corn trade, but the liabilies in each instance are believed to be small. From the Sunday Times, Aug. 29. The suspension of the business of Messrs. William R. Robinson was announced on Saturday morning, and caused a degree of excitement, which arose rath er from the circumstances of the senior partner beins the Governor of the Rank of England than from the actual extent of the liabilities of the firm. These liabilities are stated at about £105,000, and it is understood that the assets, as nominally made out, show 15s in the pound, although no expectation is en tertained of the ultimate realization of that discount. The event is attributed entirely to speculations in wheat, and the house has for several weeks been in cluded among those whose ability to resist the recent pressure has formed the subject of discussion on the Corn Exchange. Liverpool Markets*.

Sarsaparilla.— The warm sun-of Spring, which infuses new life into the kingdom, is not without its effect upon our physical system. The tide of life seems to flow faster through our veins, and if, as is sometimes the case, it bears with it the seeds of disease, generated by the luxuri ous living of Winter, we shall be sure to see a .d feel the effects in some shape or other. We therefore re commend as a preparation which may be taken with peculiar advantage at this season, that excellent anti septic, Sands’ Sarsaparilla. It will prove the best preventive of the eruptions so common in the Spring months, and where they have dready broken out, will soon remove them. For all diseases of the skin, ul cers, boils, &c., it will be found a most efficient re medy. 13“ Prepared and sold, wholesale and retail by A. B. & D.

Maryland. --Snoic Hill, Feb. 21, 1846. — Mr. Seth W. Fovvle, Sir—Please send me, as soon as possible, another lot of Wistar’s Balsam ofWild Cherry. I have been selling this valuable medicine in this town for many years. It has proved to be highly useful in many cases. Much has been said and written in commendation of this article, and just ly too, I think from my observation of its effect upon others, and my own experience in using it. Some months since, having a bad cough, I lost my appetite and strength, and my health was much impaired. I tried this Balsam ; to my satisfaction and joy, when I had taken two bottles my cough was removed, my appetite returned, and my strength and general health restored. Whenever I have any symptoms of the kind return I immediately resort to this medicine, and find it to have the des ; red effect. I believe this is one of the best medicines in the world for coughs and in cipient consumption, and that invalids in the more ad vanced stages may be relieved by using it. Signed by Levi Townsend.

Purchasers were not only unable to operate at the prices current at an earlier period, but the operations of Friday las showed a decided up ward tendency in prices. Business was almost to tally snspended on Saturday, in consequence of the nosition which holders had assumed; on Monday and Tuesday, however, buyers came to terms. During these two days upwards of 1000 bales were sold and when we closed our inquiries on the afternoon of the latter day, preparatory to the publication of °ur serai weeklv report; the grades in most request had ad vanced a full sc. On Wednesday a moderate inqmry prevailed but the high prices required drove buyers from the market, and the transactions were confined to 83 bales. On Thursday the offers of the previous day were renewed, but holders would not yield in their demands, and only 20 bales were sold. Yes terday the transactions were limited to some 14 bales, as it was impossible for the trade to come to terms. The inquiry throughout the week has run mostly on the middling to good middling, and middling fair classifications which have improved } to fc, above the quotations given in »ur report of the 11th inst. The receipts of the new crop thus far, this season, reach but 29 bales, against 260 bales in the corresponding period of last year. W e refer to our quotations for a fair criterion of the market, but would remark, that although we have advanced the quotations for fair and fully fair, these rates must, for the present, be consi dered nominal. The aggregate sales of the week reach 1184 bales against the receipt in the same time of 571 bales. The actual transactions comprise 149 bales at 10}, 75 at 11, 40 at 11}, 24 at Ilf, 83 at 11}, 60 at Ilf, 239 at Ilf, 113 at 12, and 82 bales at 12}c.

M.— Cotton. —The market has remained in a quiet slate during the entire week, and the aggregate sales do not exceed 300 to 400 bales. This state of th ; ngs has been produced, partly by the confidence and high pretensions of holders, and partly by the absence of orders to any extent. The limited orders here, tco, are below the prices ask ed, and, under these circumstances transactions have been exceedingly limited and the market is now at a complete stand. In the meantime, holders, inspired with confidence by the unfavorable reports of the growing crop which continue to come to hand, remain firm, and are indifferent in relation to sales.
