BALTIMORE MARKET. The Steamers news has unsettled the market. Flour —Sales of Howard-st. at $.5,0 IJ. Wheat —Sales of prime white at $1,2.5. Wheat —Sales prime red 10,(XK) bushels at $1,20. Corn —Sales of prime white at G3c. NEW YORK, Nov. 10—5 P. M.— Flour —Sales of Genesee at $0,25. Wheat —Sales of Prime White at sl,lO a 1,13. Cotton has declined. Decline in Cotton- The N. O. Delta of the 7th last., says : The disastrous advices brought by the Liver pool steamer Cambria, and received here about twelve days since, have produced a decline of two cents per pound in our great staple ; Mid dling Louisiana and Mississippi being worth, jiltst prior to the receipt of those accounts, to 0, and now quoted at GJ to 7 cents per lb. Buyers have come forward, however, very freely at the reduction, and, notwithstanding the extreme diliiculty of passing their bills of exchange, fully 45,000 bales have been sold during the past fortnight, chiefly for France, the south or Europe, &c. "Within a day or two the relief given by these heavy sales has rendered the market much firmer, and factors refuse to submit to any further decline. With regard to the future course of the market, much will, of course, depend upon the tenor of the next accounts from England, now due, and which there is very little reason to hope will be more encouraging than the last. As to the estimates of the present crop, very few now' place it below 2,200,000 bales, and many at a much higher figure. The Steamer Washington- The American steamship Washington made her trip to Southampton in fifteen days; and letters from passengers who went out in her, speak, of her performance in very w'arm terms of praise. One letter says— “On the Sunday after leaving New York we encountered the equinoctial gale from the East; for the six following days it continued to blow hard from the same quarter. On Sun day it commenced to blow' again, even still harder than on the preceding Sunday, and lasted for three days and a half, during which we could not keep our course, owing to the very high sea. “The passengers, some of whom cross the Atlantic twice a year, pronounce this the most remarkable passage they have ever made.— The alterations made while at New York have had the desired effect. The ship is perfectly easy in the heaviest weather, and j'ou w ould scarcely believe, by the appearance of things in the cabin, at the W'orst of times, that you were in a gale upon the broad waters of the Atlantic, as the rolling is scarcely perceptible.” Another letter remarks—“ The ship is the best sea boat in the world, as I believe, stand ing upright in all winds and weather.” The Washington was to leave Southamp ton on the 24th ult., and is now' fully due. The New York Commercial Advertiser of Saturday says—“We are informed that it is the determination of the directors to send off the Washington on the 11th, the advertised day.** The “Infamous Sub-Treasury ” The Pennsylvanian says—“ Suppose the gov ernment funds were at present in the vaults of a bank, as the Federalists desired ! How easily that institution, on the strength of the bad commercial new's from England, and the demand for specie for the war, could cook up a panic. The result now', however, is this ; the money circles are calm, exchanges are equal, and general security is felt by all classes of business men. The “infamous Sub-Trea cury” is only excelled by the “infamous Tar iff” in ruining the country.” The Western papers state that the prepara tions making at the various slaughtering points in that section of country, indicate a heavy packing business this w inter ; and it is inferred from this that the Spring supplies of Beef and Pork will be quite as large, if not larger, than those of any previous year. At St. Louis, the arrangements for slaugh tering are more ample than they have ever been before. The Republican says that one of the houses is sufficiently large to hang at one time 800 Hogs; in connection with which a Beef-house is constructed capable of hang ing 200 head at a time. The pens adjoining will hold five or six thousand head. At ano ther house preparations are made for killing imd hanging up daily 600 hogs and 100 beeves; and in another for killing and hanging daily &00 to 1,000 hogs, and 100 to 200 beeves. An accident occurred on the railroad near Springfield, Mass.',’ on' Saturday last, by w'hich seven emigrant passengers were killed and se veral others horribly mangled. The accident was caused by the falling of a break upon the rails under the cars, which pitched the train down the embankment. On the Safe Side- It is said by one who knows, though w'c do not vouch for the fact, that a young man, in New Haven, Conn., of great economy, w r as ac customed, before his marriage, to rideout with his betrothed, but with the express stipulation, that in case he did not marry her, she should pay half the expense of the team. [communicated.] The Theatre- Mrs. Mowatt’s play of “ Fashion” was rep resented for the first time in this city on last Wednesday evening. The characters w ore strongly cast and well supported, and the play went off with shouts of laughter amid the rapturous applause of a delighted audience. Miss Clara Ellis as “Ger trude,” and Mrs. Forbes as “ Seraphina,” were beautiful delineations. Mr. Crisp, in his ori ginal character of “ Count Jolimatre,” made the Count just crisp enough, consequent ly a most agreeable relish. The character of “ Adam Trueman,” by Mr. Forbes, was also an elegant personification of the blunt, w r arm hearted Cataraugus Farmer. Mrs. Mehen, as “ Mrs. Tiffany,” Mr. Fuller, as “Snobson,” Mr. Wolfe, as Adolphe , acquitted themselves with credit in their respective parts. To night “ Fashion” is to be repeated for the last time. Those w'ho have not witnessed its per formance should avail themselves of the op portunity offered. It is decidedly one of the best acting plays of the day, and NO MISTAKE. yg-v-a 1 spauU Notices.

(N ALVANISM is supposed to be identical with If Electricity and Magnetism, and these won drous agents have long been known to possess great efficacy in the cure ot some very painful and tedi ous diseases. These benefits, however, have been greatly lessened by a w r ant of means for their pro per application. This has been entirely and suc cessfully remedied by Dr. CHRISTIE'S GAL VANIC RINGS, BELTS, BRACELETS, and other articles, which are adapted to any part of the system with perfect safety and certainty of bene ficial effect. In all Nervous Complaints, or those which arc caused by any derangement of the Ner vous System, such as Paralysis, Tic Doloreaux, Bronchitis. Neuralgia, Chronic llheumatism, Epi leptic Fits, Tarmors, Dyspejma, &c., the effect of DR. CHRISTIE'S Galvanic articles is truly won derful ; the most perfect cures being often made when all hope had gone, and physic and the phy sician had equally failed. Pamphlets with full descriptions and the most respectable testimonials may be had gratis of the authorized Agent, or they will be sent by mail.
