Bulty Alflo3, N. I'., Jan. 23.—The steamship City of
-New York, from. Liverpool, with dates of Wednesday,
•the Bth kat., and telegraphic advisee, via Queenstown,
4o the 9th hist, passed Oape Baca at 9 'o'clock this
The steamship Europa, from Boston, arrived at Liver
!pool on the 6th.
There was considerable disappointment expressed in
3ngland at the non-reception of definite advice, from
America relative to the 'Mason and Slidell imbroglio, end
.the greatest, anxiety wadi felt for the, news by the next
arrival.
Ibe pirate Sumpter has 'arrived it Cadiz, where ehe
,tadland.ed 42 prmonere, taken from three U. merchant
Newels she had destroyed. .
GREAT BRITAIN.
Pending the arrival of the Airopa, there was a feeling
of great snaponse in England, but the funds were but
, tesoperazily depressed. dome Journals argue that a den
gate answer was not to be expected by the Europa, and
ethink the canoe of peace loses nothing by delay. Others
'•construe the delay unfavorably. The Morning Post
thinks it diminishes the hope of peace, and that the
Washington Government will propose a compromide, but
.which will not for a moment be entertained.
. . .
The Times asks why the decision Wanda be delayed if
/favorable for peace, and eayi that the immediate surren
der of Mason and Slidell would hare been a greater blow
Ito the Confederates than a victory on the Potomac, and
%worth millions to the Federal Exchequer.
The Daily Netoyeeei nothing but peace.
All the journals pubitshthe semboMclal accounts from
the American'papers.
The Government bedreceived an account of tho pro
ceedings of Lord Lyons up to the 23d of December,
*hen he presented the formal demands of the British Go
vernment.
An answer was looked for by the steamer America, due
lon the ltth instant, and•the Cabinet had been summoned
to meet In council on the 14th Instant.
Dr. Russell, in hircorrespondence to the London Times,
wrediets that the .Cabinet at Washington will refuse to
!brander up Messrs. Mason and Stldell. , He also - nays
that ii. victory over the Confederate army lass become a
political necessity, and that General McClellan is being
pressed on all sides to make s forward movement.
The Melees per the Europa had calmed an upward
tendency in the war risks at Lloyd's.
The Paris Yoh* and rays say that the Government
at Washington offered to restore Mears. Mason and
MUMI on condition that England would not recognize
the Southern Confederacy.
The London Morning Herald says that if the Mason
and Slidell affair is settled, England and France have an
dnducement, on commercial grounds, to recognize the
evelbearned independence of the Confederate States, and
that, mites the step is manfully taken by the Ministers
at once, it is certain to bo taken by Parliament on Its
assembling. •
The Daily News says that anyrecognition of the Con
federate States is too abhorrent to English principle to bo
readily a subject of apprehension.
Additional hattuties of artillery were under orders to
embark.
The London Times Shows that, by the beginning of
February, the squadron of Admiral Milne will number
seven line• of-battle ships, thirty-three frigates, twenty
tlie sloops-of war, and speculates on what
the can del thErewith. •
EMMEZZI=IMiCI
The pirate Sumpter, on arriving at Cadiz with the
cificers and crews of three Federal merchant vessels,
elicited permission to enter the port The American
canna demanded that the request should be refused, but
It was granted on condition that the prisoners should be
placed under the protection of Spain, and the Sumpter
then :entered the port without being saluted. It was
_rumored that the American consul would leave on ac
count of the resolution of Spain.
The British Parliament is announced to meet on the
4th of February, but it can be called earlier if the eat-
Agencies of the cue demand it.
The teat of the Austrian despatch to the Government

The rendition of Mason and Slidell to the custody of
'Lord Lyons was received with the greatest satisfaction,
but some Journals complain of the uogracions manner
in which the Washington Cabinet proceeded. Others
-accord due credit for the act, and the graceful manner
♦with which the settlenient was conducted. Console im

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
THE MONEY MARKET.
PIIILADELPHIA, January 23, 1882.
A large amount of business in Blocks and bonds was
transacted by the Stock Board to-day, with an upward
tandems, for all investment securities, and a strong
speculative movement in fanoy stocks. Reading Rail
road shares sold at log at the opening, and DX at the
second board; North Pennsylvania Railroad shares 7%
at the fret board, 7% at the second. Little Schuylkill
shares advanced to 10%; Long Island to 1031, a gain of
35. Catawissa Railroad shares gained g ; Schuylkill
Navigation preferred %. City sixes (now) rose steadily,
selling at 95 after boards. Camden and Amboy shares
went up to MM.
Of the money market there is little to report. Prime
endorsed paper, With short time to run to maturity-, is
?ranted at about seven per cent. Second-class names
and single-name paper are not easily sold. Quarter
master's warrants are rather slow of sale. •
Messrs Drexel & Co. report New York exchange par m
1-10 disconnt, Boston parml-10 discount, Baltimore par
geS discount ? American gold 3X33; premium.
The propositions of the Committee of Ways and Means,
embraced in the Financial Bill, submitted by them to
Congress, are very generally accepted as wise and effi
cacious by those among our business mon who have
thought much upon the subject. It will afford relief to
many branches of business, now under adverse pressure,
if prompt action in this important matter can be reason
ably expected of Congress. The vast proportions of the
public debt that is accumulating, and the disposition to
run up prices in all directions, on the anticipation of an
inflated paper currency, fostered by the National Trea
sury, have awakened the anxieties of all right-thinking
rucn, who probably never before watched and waited for
the action of Congress as at present.
It is expected that the tax bill, which is to go with and
be a part of the system, will be ready by Tuesday next
Many suggestions are made that the law should make
provision for the payment of the interest on tho public
loans in gold, and that for this purpose the payment of
duties in gold should be enforced, and the gold so col
lected reserved for the purpose. Tho tariff would bo in
creased by the amount of premium that gold commanded
over other funds.

The case of the second mortgage bondholders of the

Tho York Gazette says that the Northern Central
Railroad Company are now making constant additions
to the motive power of their road in order to accommo
date the immense amount of freighting business they aro
called upon to perform. The freight engines are built
by MOM. Baldu in S: Co., of Philadelphia, and are fa
miliarly known as the kilns Rill Engines." Addl.
tional passenger engines aro also being constructed, one
or more of which have already been received.
The New Yolk Poet of this evening says:
The principal topic of the street today Is the con
tinued rise In gold. The speculative fooling in it seems
to be daily strengthening, and on the Stock Exchange it
attracts almost as much attention as New York Control
or Brio. The sales at the Board this morning reached
$260,000 at 103 i c 5103%, closing firm at the latter figure.
One broker took $lOO,OOO at 103)4 ce103%, buyer 30 days,
supposed for foreign account.
The bullion brokers have quietly bought largo sums
yesterday and today at 1033103 X, and seem inclined to
continue their purchases at the advance, the firmness in
exchange encouraging the upward movement.
The foreign exchange market has a strong upward
tendency. We referred to largo purchases on specula.
Con a few days since, but the advance of 2c216 IP cont.
has not yet brought these bills into the market. Tho
leading drawers ere very firm in their views, 114 being
generally asked for 60-day bills on London. Wo hear of
113013 X being refused for lines of £lO,OOO and £20,003.
The exchange market is a little dull on account of the
derangement in the sailing of the regular Saturday
steamers. It is doubtful if any mail will be sent from
this port till the sailing of the Africa on Wednesday
next, though en opportunity will probably bo offered by
the Portland steamer to close here about noon to-mor
row, say ono o'clock or so.
The City of New York, which was up for departure
from this port for Europe on Saturday, is just announced
off Cape Race. dyer advicee, which are important, are
given in fall elsewhere. The cotton market wan un
settled and breadetnffs heavy.
The stock market Is quiet but very firm. Tho leading
speculative! are, in the main, higher, but the' Govern
ment list is heavy and lower. There is an advance of 1i
erM per cent. in some of the Western stocks, but at the
close the improvement is scarcely sustained.
Governments are weak, e4peeially the fives of 1871 and
'74. Our quotations show a decline of %al;y per cent.
In these, but the eines of 1881 aro not materially lower.
The general impression Is that the bonds cannot be sue.
tained at present prices, with the heavy 18311(14 ahead,
though decided !Whim y successes would at once elevate
the credit of the Government.
