EMIGRATION or ENGLISH OPERATIVES TO AME
RICA.—Lute English paper* inform us that extensive I
preparations arc being made by the operatives in the
cotton trade to emigrate to the United States in large
numbers. The London Shipping and Mercantile
Gazette, of the Sth February, says that hundreds
of operatives in even branch of manufacture were
emigrating to foreign countries, particularly to the
United States, nnd that thousands were preparing
under special organization, to follow their example.
The same paper, of 25th Feb. >ays that this organiz- !
ation has already commenced in Lancashire, and on
£udav evening, the 13th of f eh., a meeting of dele
gates of operative cotton spinners from all the towns
was held in Bolton, when it was resolved to promote
the object by weekly subscriptions among the opera
tire*. .
The committee Appointed reported, at this meet
ing, that 4000 members, paying two-pence sterling
each, will in fiftv weeks enable the Association to
emigrate 3*20 at each, and as there are 8000 in
the districts, the committee feci assured that this
simple statement need only he laid before the work
ers in each district to convince theiu of its utility and
beneficial influence upon the trade, to induce
them immediate! v to >ubscribe, and carry it fully and
speedily into effect. The committee further state:—
"There is one objection your committee have met
with, aud which, in some ruiuds t may seem an im
portant one, viz:—that hy sending spmucrs to Ame
rica, thov will become our competitors. Our answer
iv, that the mills now Imill, and at*-* building in Ame
rica, will want operatives, aud the interests of the
capitalist will induce him to prefer skill d workmen
to those who have to be learned; and as the mills,
when erected, will have to be tilled with work peo
ple, it is much better that the surplus hands should
be employed than additional ones created.
It is enough to say (the reporter of the meeting
states) that the meeting was perfectly unanimous in
the adoption of the scheme, and so full of hope do
thev sec lU to be of the beneficial working of the
project, that no Other subject was touched upon, ijte
scheme was fixed to go into operation on the 27th
February ult.
The Manchester Examiner states that, "numbers
of industrious and prudent operatives, who have
either saved a little money when the sun shone, or
who have been assisted by their relatives and
friends, are emigrating to the I nited Stairs."
That this emigration of the operatives, carried on
as it will be, by private and public subscription, will
be very extensive, lb • London editor referred to en- i
tcrtains no doubt, and he congratulates the people of
Lancashire upon such a display of prudence and good
sense as thev are exhibiting.
The following remarks of the same paper (the
London Shipping ami Mercantile Gazette) on the
foregoing statements, will attract attention, a> being
an acknowledgment that the Cotton manufacture in
England has reached tls zenith, and must now de
cline.
Here, then, is a "great fact," and it is the emana
tion of the other "great fact" which preceded it; is
"the compliment" of free trade. Ihe cotton trade, :
which the great mill owners of the country have been ;
laboring so strenuously to monopolize in perpetuity,
and for which every other national interest was to
be sacrificed, is about to be transferred from England
to America. Ii is about to fix itself where it should
naturally b -long that is where the raw material is
produced. II wo, indeed, i- a great commercial revo
lution; but il is a revolution which will eventually
regenerate the whole British empire and save it from .
a revolution of a more dangerous character. For
years past we hav v bei u endeavoring to impress upon
the public mind that our cotton manufactures were ;
excessive; this was sufficiently shown by the fre* ,
quency of distress among the operatives, by idle
mills, short time working, and glutted markets.
We showed that the mill owners were destroying
each other by their over competition, while their
sole apprehension appeared to be the competition ot
foreigners. But we went even further than this: we
predicted that the time was fa*t approaching when
the Americans would compete with us not only iu
neutral markets, but in our own market; and, if we
are not much mistaken, that time is very near at
hand. What is England to expect from this? We
say, nothing but good, because the most stubborn free
trader must then be convinced that the sole reliance
of any nation must rest upon the protection ot it
own native indu-try. This is a truth which would
never be acceded to by the tuiil owners and their
disciples in the government, so long as the former
had the slightest hopes of establishing a monopoly
for themselves: the destruction of this expectation
will throw a new light upon tree trade.
England will export less cotton goods, but what
she does export will —or at lea-t may, if free trade
theories are voted a nuisance—yield a profit to the
muUuui-i J ami mi adequate >uppni to Hie operators.
What is the present history of our cotton exports?
Why, that, in perhaps nine cases out of ten, they do
not realise in foreign markets the co>t of production
and transport; while our artisans are one halt of their
time in misery and want, from inadequate wages or
the deprivation of employment England may yet
have an extensive and profitable cotton trade within
her own boundlc-s dominions; but to secure this
there must be a complete reaction in our free trade
system: our colonics must not be destroyed for the
benefit of foreigners: our shipping, and our seamen,
and our naval artisans, must not be destroyed for the
benefit of foreigners: the home and colonial markets
arc our own, a..i we should take care to retain them
as our own. The emigration of the manufacturing
operatives is a serious monitor, and we hope the
warning it gives will not be lost upon our rulers.
We can project our own cotton trade even against
American competition; but we must, at the same
time, protect our own shipping trade. All must be
done by the same operation—-by returning to the
sound and rational principles of import duties, when
foreign products interfere with native production.
Phenomenon at Xin gar a Falls. —The Buffalo Ex
press of March 31, lias tiie following:
" The wat r in the Niagara river, at the village of
Black Rock, fell during night before last, three feet
lower than it was ever known before, and during the
day yesterday rose again only about six inches.—The
stage of the water in the river is frequently changed
by strong northeast gales, that force the water in the
lake towards its western extremity, but a fall so un
paralleled—and at a time when severe storms arc
seldom known, and while the weather is so exceeding- i
Jy mild aud propitious here—can scarcely be account
ed for from such a cause. The water in our harbor
lias not perceptibly receded."
A letter from Niagara Falls of March 30, says—
"The Falls of Niagara can be compared to nothing
but a mere mill dam this morning' In the memory
of the oldest inhabitants, never was there so little
water running over Niagara's awful precipice, as at
this moment! Hundreds of people are now witness
ing that which never has. and probably never may
again be witnessed on the Niagara River. Last
night at 11 o'clock the factories fed from the waters
of this majestic river were in full operation, and at
12 o'clock the water was shut off, the wheels sudden
ly ceased their revolutions, and everything was hush
ed into silence. Various arc the conjectures as to the
cause; the most reasonable of which is that Lake Erie
must be making a grand delivery of ice, and that the
mouth of the Niagara, although large, is not quite e
nougii to take in lite whole at once, and that the con
sequences are, back water. Two men this morning
rode in a buggy one-third of the way across the river,
from the head of Goat Island towards the Canada
shore—the wheeling was excellent, the rock being as
smooth as a floor. Thev drove outside of the island
known as 'Allen's Island,' and turned round—a thing
which has never before occurred! The 'Table Hock,'
on the Canada side of the river, looks rather 'hard
tip;' the veil which has always protected it from pub
lic observation has been removed, aud nature's works
have been left exposed to the gaze of a cold and criti
cising world." |
[A suspension wire Bridge has recently been con
structed over Niagara t ails, hy which persons have
passed from one shore to the other, and Ibis, as a work
Of art, may well contrast with the above Phenome
non.]
The Phenomenon at Niagara. —The Buffalo Ex- '
press of the 4th hays. V\\- learn that the waters of !
the Niagara have returned to their accustomed height
and the Falls arc doing their usual amount of business
again. On the Canada side the waters receded so
far from Table Rock, us to allow the foot of man to I
proceed on it* smooth bed, far beyond where it had
everstood before, or probably ever will again. Those
who have been under the sheet of water on the Cana
da side can judge something of tiie extent of the re- j
cession when they are told that the sheet was en
tirely suspended there, and the curtain lifted so that
the rugged pathway below was thrown bare and open
to the gaze of the outer world. Thus, have the won- ;
dcrs of Niagara been augmented for a day, by this
singular phenomenon, which is not likely ever again
to recur. Below the Falls in the narrow gorge the
water fell in places 12 or 15 feet.

LONDON, March 24
Money JWarket. —The failure, or suspension, of the
great banking house of Eicthall & Co. ot Paris commu
nicated by this dispatch, has created much uneasiness
here, from Iho extensive relations and very high
standing of the house. It was the great Paris bank
ing firm for Germany, and has.it is said,corresponding
branches at Augsburg, Carlsruhe and Munich. It was
urged bv the mercantile community that, to atfbrd !
any reaily useful degree of accommodation, the limit
should be extended to 90 days. Petitions were sign
! ing at Antwerp, Ghent and other principal cities,
strongly protesting against the loans (called forced)
' now being raised by the Government.
The reports from Paris rather depressed Coitsols. j
—They declined to 82 jto but have since gradual
ly recovered, and now are 83 to | for time and money.
Exchequer Bills. 23* to 52s premium. Although not
so actively a9 for the last few days, we have still pur

American Provisions. —There is still a good demand I
tor Bacon, and, in some cases, an advance of Is to 2s
more money has been realised for a prime article. !
Large parcels have lately arrived from Baltimore and '
Now-) oik, and many of the agents are askingsßs to
| 60s. Middles continue in good request at improved j
prices. Pork 54s to 50s, and Bacon 50s to 60s. Large j
parcels of Lard having arrived, rather lower prices i
have been taken, which has caused several lots to be I
taken, kegs 60s to 655, and barrels 55s to 60s. Beef '.
and Pork continue iu good request, and in a few in- •
>tances, rather better prices are obtained. For ships' j
use prices are as follows: India Beef 120s to 125s per
tierce of 336 lbs.; mess 100s to 105s; prime mess 95s |
to 97s 6d; India Pork 1 40s to 145s per tierce 0f304 |

Metals. —The trade has been rather inactive since j
the date of our last report. The Iron market has |
j been dull, and although holders have accepted redu- '
• ced terms buyers, both for home use aud export, come j
toward with le>s freedom. There are many parcels |
offering, and if the present state of the country con- j
tittues, prices will still be lower. No. I South Pig
has been sold at 455, and mixed numbers 13s 6d to 4 is; 1
but now these quotations are quite nominal. Bars j
and Hails have also met with less attention, and pri- |
ces for both are still looking u \vn. Welsh and Stall*- 1
ordshire Pigs are difficult of sale, even on reduced I
terms. In the value of British no change can be made |
this week, but the market has a very dull tone. For- j
cign is held firm, owing to the small stocks. British
Tin moves off slow, at last week's rates. Foreign is |
selling in small lots. Banca fetching 84s, and Straits |
76s to 775. Keg 581 eel remains dull of sale, and is
freely Offering. Copper moves off to a fair extent, at
fully last week's rat *. Tin Plates arc steady at
I former terms. Lead moves off'quietly in small lots
1 for actual consumption at our quotations. In other ar
ticles no change, and search any business doing.

Bacon —At present prices, experiences an active
demand, and ail recent arrivals have been freely
taken. at rates ruled by quality.
Beef .—I- ine parcels have continued to maintain
previous quotations. W estern parcels in general
have met a steady demand, at from 90s. downward,
according to quality.
Cheese. — 1 lie quality of rec -nt imports has proved
inferior; this, in connexion with a lower currency for
Cheshire Cheese, leaves 50s. as our present top price.
Corn, tyc. —Since our last, prices have tended
downward on each article except sour Flour, w Inch is
scarce. The suppli sof Wh at, Flour, Oats, and
Oatmeal from Ireland continue to be lib ral; the mar
kets ot the interior are independent of foreign sup- ;
plies; and should the weather now prove favorable
tor out-door farm work, suit lower rates are proba
ble. At to-day's market we had but a very limited
business passing, our extreme quotations being almost
nominal- Wheat aud Flour were neglected—Corn
i and Corn Meal were pressed on the market at our
lower range of prices, and found buyers to some ex
tent for shipment to Ireland.
Cotton. —The still unsettled state of affairs on the
Continent, and the consequent lack of demand for
our manufactures, continue to affect our market very
materially, and prices are now Jd. per lb. lower than
on the 10th inst. The sales of this week have been
24,780 bale*, those of to-dty 5000 bales, with a slight
ly improved demand, and less pressure to sell. The
stock to-day lall qualities is estimated at 287,500
hales, against 17 1,350 at the corresponding date last
year.
llams. —At low prices, some progress has been I
made in clearing the market of old. No smoked
meat of any kind should be sent here.
Hemp. —l4o bales sold at j£24 per ton.
Hides. —We have no import of States'. Sales of 1
South American have continued to a fair extent, at '
rather better prices for fair qualities, but interior are
still without improvement.
Lard.— At our quotations, the market has been
cleared of the weighty arrivals noted. No advance
is, however, to be anticipated, as the operations of
our own refiners, now in slock, will keep the retail
market supplied. Of Aincr. line qualities, "Dietz's" i
hladdered has sold at 60s. 6d., "Locke's" tins 61s. '
to 625. 9d., and "Aldeii's" tubs at 575. 6d. t0585.9d. !
(Anseed Cake. —About 150 tons sold at £(j. Sub
sequently, with an improved demand, nearly the |
whole ot the late import has been taken, at an ad- 1
vance of 10s. to 15s. per ton. £6 15s. was offered. !
this week, for a quantity of thick round N. Orleans, 1
and refused.
Pork. —New continues to be taken on arrival, but 1
without any activity jn the demand, fine qualities of
Prime Mess alone commanding attention.
Rice. Large importations of Bengal and Madras
have had a depressing influence on the market, and
prices have given way fully Is. per cwt. on Carolina.

Seeds. — Ihe demand for Clover is very inactive,
at 375. to 40s. lor new American, and 41s. to 445. for
French and Dutch, of last season's import. We hear
of no transactions in American Flaxseed.

TO OWNERS AND MASTERS OF VESSELS.
IN order to facilitate and improve the mode of Communication at Sea, by Ships of ar w 'l" eacli
other, and with vessels of the Revenue, Mariue and Merchant service, the Signals patented by the
under-igned have been adopted by the Government as the ftandard code of the United States:
The following are the advantages to be derived from their use, viz: 'j
** Vessels meeting at sea in any part of the world, if provided with: ne Flags and Signal Books, may ,
as long as they are in sight of each other, without altering their course, communicate any intelligence,
either their names, from what port they sailed, what passage they have had, what vessels they left in
port, or that preceded them; particulars relative to vessels they have fallen in with, if in want of stores,
provisions,assistance, or information; their latitude and longitude; casualties or any observations tbey „
have made during their voyage." . ■
It is highly important to owners that their vessels be provided with these Signals in the event ol tnei
being under convoy of Government, or in company of other vessels.
Testimonials from officers of the Navy, Revenue, Marine, &c., in favor or the system, can be had free
of charge at our office, where we are prepared to furnish Signals aud give any information in regard to the
business. ROGERS & BLACK, J
