Affairs with France.— The New York
Courier of Saturday has the following
* paragraph:
“ We are enabled to say, on the au
thority of one of our most respectable
commercial houses, that a letter from
London, dated October 28ih, received
yesterday by the Josephine, states that a
- ' formal demand had been made by our
Charge d’Affaires on the French Gov
ernment, for the payment of the instal
ments due the United States, as settled
by the indemnity treaty. That a long
' conference was in consequence held be
• tween the President of the Council, the
Duke de Broglie, and the Minister of Fi
’ nance, M. Humann, and that on the 26th
'a refusal was communicated to our
' .Charge, and a full and explicit explana
tion of the President’s Message required.”
>RICHMOND, Dec. B.— General As
sembly.— A quorum of both houses ap
peared yesterday, and both were organ
ized at the usual hour. In the Senate
Stafford H. Parker, Esq. of the Carolina
district, was appointed Speaker, and Ad
dison Hansford, Clerk. The old officers
were re-elected.
In the House of Delegates, Linn Banks,
Esq. was re-elected Speaker, without any
regular opposition, and George W. Mun
ford, Esq. Clerk. One hundred and
twenty six members were present, being
the whole number except eight.
Both the Speakers are friends, of the
Administration.

cle says—Large flocks of wild pidgeons
were observed passing from the north to
the south on 'the 29th and 30th of No

these birds so far from the rice fields of
the south so late in the season.

t LIVERPOOL, Oct. 27. —There has been
little enquiry for Cotton to-day, and the sale*
did not exceed 1200 bales, at yesterday’s prices.
Oct. 30. Colton.— The total sales of the
month amount to 92,700 bags, of which 10,700
American being taken on speculation, and 8300
American forexport; besides which 800 Ameri
can, have been forwarded into the country un
‘ sold; and our present quotations, as compared
with those of the Ist instant, are lower by 2d
per lb. on Sea Islands; |d per lb in American,
Jd to 1 per lb in Brazil, 2jd in Egyptian, and
jd per lb in Surat.
The demand this week has been only to a
moderate extent, and our prices are lower gen
erally by jd to jd per lb than those of Friday
last, and Egyptian and Sea Island id to Id.—
1000 American on speculation and 1009 forex

■Extracts of letters, received in Charleston, dated,
“MOBILE, Dec. 2.—The French buyers
are sweeping every thing before them, in this
market, for the last two weeks—this has caused
Our market to advance i ct within the last
three davs. There is no enquiry for any thing
but fine Cotton—other kinds are quite neglect
ed. We quote fine 16J cts brisk sales. The
article begins to arrive freely, and as the rivers
;.re now full, we shall have a large stock before
anuary, and 1 think a decided decline in prices.
Some lots sold in New Orleans as high as 18
cts fill on French account. I think there will
be an opportunity of buying enough here in a
month or two. 1 shall have nothing to do with
it at present prices, as I fully believe there will
be a time this season when rtippey can be made
bn Cotton, inasmuch as there will certainly be
a disappointment about tl(e extent of the crop—
it wilt fall far short of the estimate made three
months ago. The crop of North Alabama and
Mississippi is materially injured by the frost.—
I do not think the Gulf States will export more
Cotton than they did last season. Mobile more,
but there will be a falling off in other sections,
and concur in this opinion at this time. I know
these reports should be received with great cau
tion al this season of the year, but we all know,
that the Cotton was in full bloom in the Gulf
States, when the frost commenced, not even half
matured at this lime.
. “Cotton Bagging is a complete drug at pre
sent, the stock is very large.
“NEW ORLEANS, Dec. I.—The late pur
chases for France will amount to over 25,000
bales, but the demand seems not to be over, and
there is little or no inquiry for England, conse
quently our market is very dull. I fully ex
pect to see much lower prices ete long. Every
one seems to be in bad spirits here, on account
of the ruinous turn Cotton has taken in Liver
pool”
