f 
Arrival of the Worth America. 
The Canada Company’s screw steamship North 
America, from Liverpool on Wednesday, the 30th 
of December, arrived at Portland, on the 14th inst. 
Great Britain. — The London money market 
continues to grow easier, and there was every pros¬ 
pect of a farther reduction in the bank rates. 
There had been a slight change in the Ministry, 
Lord Harborough by retiring, and Marquis Clani- 
carde succeeded him. 
The steamship Sarah Sands was burnt at sea 
She succeeded in reaching the Manritas safely with 
the troops on board. 
France.— All the exiled French Germans have 
nnconditional permission to return to France. 
China.— The Minnesota, with the American Com¬ 
missioner on board, had reached Hong Kong.— 
Speedy operations against Canton were anticipated. 
India.— Dates of the 25th of November had been 
received from Calcutta They fully confirm the 
reported relief of Lucknow, and the great slaughter 
of the rebels, who fought desperately. 
The Bombay mail of December 4th had reached 
England. The Calcutta mails of the 25th of No¬ 
vember had arrived at Trieste. 
The fighting before Lucknow was very severe. 
On the 10th the enemy suffered enormously. The 
fight on that day was one of the severest ever wit¬ 
nessed. On the 16th the enemy were flying in great 
numbers from Lucknow, and the firing had nearly 
ceased. After the fight the bodies of 140 Sepoys 
were counted in the palace. It was reported that 
the King of Delhi, son and two nephews, after 
being tried, had been shot. 
The Daily News says that the rebels of Oude have 
placed a boy upon the Throne, and keep him in 
state at Fyzabad, a city of 100,000 inhabitants, 
which is defended by a large fort with a wall and 
ditch and round towers, and new entrenchments. 
Three companies of the 34th infantry had muti¬ 
nied at Chittagong, and marched to Bacca. 100 
Europeans had been sent to intercept them. The 
Cawnpore territory was threatened by a large force 
from Oude.

attached to I). White's tavern on the corner of 
John and Peel streets, in Hamilton, which, with 
several sheds adjoining, were destroyed. Two hor¬ 
ses, one very valuable, and a cow, perished in the 
flames. Owing to the exertions of the firemen, 
who were early on the ground, the flames were 
prevented from spreading to the buildings on John 
street. As it is, a great deal of valuable property 
was destroyed. Loss estimated at $4,000. It is said 
that the firo was the work of incendiaries.

Political Intelligence. 
THE WOOL MARKETS. 
YORK, Jan. 13.—The market exhibits few if any symptoms 
of .striking interest The inqury is good but the transactions are still 
iimiu-d, in consequence of reasons already assigned. The stock is 
not burdensome, notwithstanding the curtailed consumption of the 
past three or four months, and unless buyers have a check in hand, 
it is almost as difficult to purchase for 30 days as on 0 months’ credit 
Dealers cannot do anything with paper which docs not pass at the 
banks, while tiro banks in tiieir turn are puzzled what to do with the 
accumulated gold now stored in their vaults and which is much need¬ 
ed by the mercantile community to freo trade from its present shackles 
in the absence of confidence. The stock of Dulled is comparatively 
small, and is held at an advance of 2@5c. on panic prices, but the 
demand is limited. Fleece is in fair supply and is without material 
alteration; the stock here is not probably over OOU.OOU lbs, and in all 
the chief seaboard markets does not aggregate much of any over 
6,000,000 tic; the transactions of the week comprise about tin,000 lbs 
fine to lull blood (as it is so called) at 40(u)42c, 6 mos, less 0(a) 11 ) per 
cent cask Foreign is in moderate request and is lower In this titan 
the markets abroad, although the stock is not excessive, not exceed¬ 
ing 12,tJ00 bales of all kinds. We notice sales of 100 bides Washed 
Cordova on terms not transpired—it has recently been selling at 17(a) 
20c, while it cannot be imported now from South America much, if 
anything, below 27c.—A. Y. Tribune. 
BOSTON, Jan. 18—Tliore is considerable inquiry for Domestic 
wool, but the sales of the week have been moderate, comprising 
60,000 lbs at previous prices. In Foreign thero have been sales of 
200 bales South American and Mediterranean on p. t.:

The America, from Liverpool, 2d inst., arrived 
at Halifax on the 16th inst 
Great Britain.— The political news is not im¬ 
portant 
Financial news quite favorable. There was a 
oontinued growing ease in the England money 
market but no reduction of the rate of interest by 
the Bank had taken place. The holidays had 
checked all kinds of business. Little or nothing 
had been done since Thursday. 
Disappointment was felt that further reduction in 
the rate of discounts was not made by the Bank of 
England, but it was supposed that the measure was 
postponed till after the payment of the January 
dividends, and there was "a slight demand for 
money at the Bank. No new failures were an¬ 
nounced. On Friday the demand for discounts 
was very light. 
The process of launching the Leviathan was to 
re-commence on Saturday or Monday. 
On the 31st the Flenipotentiaries proceeded to a

Official accounts from Naples leave no doubt 
that several thousand persons perished during the 
late earthquake, and some accounts go as high as 
twelve thousand. 
Spain.— It is said that the Spanish government 
will consider the mediation of England and France 
cij|ed, if Mexico refuses to accept all of its cond. 
tions. Considerable activity was apparent in the 
preparations at Spanish ports for the expedition to 
Mexico. 
India. —The details of the Indian news by the 
overland mail route contain but little news in addi¬ 
tion to the dispatches from Trieste and reported 
by the North American. The loss of the rebels at 
Lucknow was estimated at 7,000. 
China.— Great activity was perceptible among 
the British forces at Hong Kong preparatory to the 
investment of Canton, which was expected to take 
place about the 1st of December.

The State Convention of the Union party for

false by direct advices from the expedition. 
Trade was very dull at San Francisco. 
The Star of the West arrived at New York on the 
15th inst, with the California mails and $1,600,000 
specie on freight and 187 passengers. She con¬

ing interest _ Copious rains had fallen all over the
