lug. She entered the harbor of Halifax completely
cncased in ice; on some parts of her it was nearly
a foot in thickness.
She left Liverpool at eleven o'clock on Saturday
morning, the 21st ult., and wbw therefore thirteen
daya in making the passage to Halifax. She bid
eight paaser.gera for Halifax, and has thirty -three
for Boston.
She will be due at Boston to-night? too late for
her mails to come southward before Monday
afternoon, unless despatched by special train to
morrow. This will probably be done by the
Post OHice authority s.
On her outward passage, the Niagara arrived at
' Liverpool shortly before (hi o'clock ou the 17th
Tilt. She left New York at noon on the 4th ult, and
waa eontequeitly twelve days and tweuty-two
hours in making the run from port to port.

hence Dtceiuber 7th, 7 A. M., arrived at the bar ofi
Liverpool, on Thurslay afternoon, the 19th ultimo,
exact hour not stated Her mails reached the city
at six o'clock. She, therefore, made the pasaige
ill twelve days and eleven hours.
The news by the Niagara is one week lat^r than
by the Baltic. The commercial advices are of
conaid'rabl? interest; but the general and political
intelligence possesses no feature of special conse
quence, ui.let-sthe uspeel the German question his
assumed can be considered import in:.
The cotton market at Liverpool, for the week
ending on the Jlst ult , had b-en active, with an
advance of one-eighth to one- quarter of a penny
per pound on previous rates. The s'lles for the
iveek reached (i5,6(i0 bales, of which speculator)
eok 14,000 bales, and exporters 12,000 Kales.
The flour market was dull, at previous rates.
Corn had reoeded sixpence, hut holders general
ly declined to sell lit the reduction.
Wheat w is one to Iwajpence cheaper.
American provisions wire scarce, and prices
consequently remain- <1 firm.
Lard had fclightly advanced, and prices were
quoted fcbovt one shilling high* r.
The sta'e of trade at M<uiehest?r, and other
manufaeti rii <? districts, was ? xce> diogly good, tlie

2iven a decided impetus to trade iu woollen and

Money continued abundant Bar eilver con

MtoiU (>? obielltd th.il the above nuitrks are
founded on the prospect of gold Buffering a gradual
and uncertain depreciation compared with silver,
and becoming therefore unfit a* a atandard of value.
I Of course, ifit is nettled at a lower value? if it
aank at once to seventy-five per cent of ita former
value, sud promised to stand at that percentage, it
would become n.ore convenient than ever tu u sub
stitute for silver, and as a legal tender in conjunction
with that metal While there are symptoms of a
diminution in tbe demand for gold, there are none
of a failing supply. That California will add its
X10,000,000 a year to the former supplies, we see
little reason to doubt. The ratio of' that sum to
the increasing wants of the werld is matter of'
simple calculation. The population of the whole
earth ia, in round numbers, 1,000, 000, OOOjita metallic
currency, ?900,000,000, which gives ,0s. 8d
to each member of the human specks. Mankind
increases about 10,000,000 a year; and, if every
thing else remained the fame, the metallic cur
rency would require an addition of ?5, 000, 000
every year. On the one hand, however, we must
iet the general increase and diffusion of wealth,
which makes the average unit require more ready
money than formerly ; and on the other hand we
must set paper currency, bills of exchange, savings
banks, state debts, railway shares, and the many
other forms in which money is now invested, all
of them having h tendency to supersede the pre
cious metal*. Taking all things into account, it is
not at all likely that the world at large will want
a larger addition to its metallic currency than
?5, 000, 000 a yeur. of which only half need be in
gold. This calculation is certainly justified by the
aspect of things imintdiately around us? Kugland
saturated with gold, Holland substituting silver
for golrl, and K ranee about to give up the double
tender. In California itself, production does not
seem to flag. It is irue that our merchants have
been disappointed, but that is because the pro
ceeds of their sales have been swallowed in pay.
ments, which have found their way into private
pocketp, or in consignments of gold dust, to other
parties The llritish merchant has to run the
gauntlet of Yankee oflicials, brokers, and trades
men, and has not secured his due proportion of the
golden stream, which has nevertheless flowed in
unquestionable abundance to all |>arts ol'ihe world.
How much the production of gold, pays for its cost
is a question for which we require more data than
we at prestnt | ossesa. The enterprise is new;
California is new; its cities are of the other day,
and have been several times destroyed; its roads,
its steamers, its mills, and the whole plant an 1
property of the Stute are quite new. Ordinarily
we do not expect a large income ut once from a
new undertaking. All is expense at first. But in
this instance, notwiihstanding these enormous ex
jienses, California, three years old, is already
yielding ?10,000.000 a year.
The Low Lodging Houses of England,
[From the London Chronicle. Dec a J
Our readers have long been acquainted with the
frightful state of the low lodging houses throughout
the country. They have long known that, though
diflicult to be dealt with, the evils resulting from
the existing condition and management of these
miserable receptacles of vice andjwretchedness,
are alike shocking and disgraceful. Vet, though
these evila are constantly referred to by those
who have investigated the subject of the poor,
no real eflorts have hitherto been made to sup
press them. Instead of being placed under the
surveillance of the police, the establishments
in question are practically unregulated by any
thing but the mere convenience of the moment,
and are allowed to flourish undisturbed in
a very luxuriance of iniquity. Our own letters
from our various ?|>ecial correspondents, both in
the metropolis and the provinces, have contained
accurate and authentic expositions of the over
crowding, disease, filth, and crime of these lodg
ing houses ? while sanitary reports, and house-to
house commissions, have published the same facta
in a more official, if in a less populur form. Their
evil is incalculable? and it is none the leas serious
because not immedia'ely felt by the higher classes
of society. Tbej poison the very sources of vir
tue, and distribute moral contamination wherever
they ex>at, sinking upward as well as downward,
and dillusiag ibeir noxious luflueneea to the fur
thest confines of the social circle.
A painful ckw connected with th^ae lodging
house* has been lately rejiorted in our iiolije u.tel
ligtrc* ; and ah the investigation wai brought to a
; conclusion en Tuesday last, as reported in our pipet
i of yegterla), wr now leel no hesitation in alining
! to it. The circumstances, which tire too gro.?a to
; be more than merely indicated, diiclnae a atate of lite
I and manners not to he met with among the lowest
race* of r'avare*, and fearfully corroborative of the
| descriptors gives t>y our n>eci'il correspondent*.
The outrage to winch we allude ? one of the vilest
kind, and accomimnied with circumstances of pe
culiar atrocit)? was cumiiir.tcd by an elderly innn,
Klifha Dentoo, on the person of Emm* Bennett,
I a young girl, aged tifterg. I wis witnessed cer
1 taiiily by une person, who deposed to the tact ? pro

Left, as they are, without care or surveillance to
the free indulgence of their passions ? tsinpted by
all kinds of vicious incitements? we cannot expect
(hem to be less criminal and profligate than they
are, seeing that not only are they without the re
straining forces of education, social esteem, a posi
tion to be lost, and a character to be de?troyed, but
that they are also exposed to direct temptations of
the most brutalizing description. We have no
right to condemn the results of such a condition of
life, while we neglect the use of those mean* of
reformation which common sense points out to us.
Were these lodging-houses placed under *uch strict
police supervision that they might be safely used
by the virtuous poor, they would be of far greater
popular convenience, and they would lessen the
moral dangers which already bear bo heavily on
the indigent As it is, ihey are national disgraces
?the more disgraceful because so easily remedied.
They are crying evils, which need only ti stout
heart, and a detf rmined will, to put them down:
and we ho|>e that some searching and effectual
good may result from the late horrible exposure,
and that poor Emma Bennett tn>iy be the last child
of fifteen subject to such frightful brutality, because
of the absence of efficient legal superintendence
and protection.

The winter fashions are no longer an uncertainty;
our moat celebrated couturieres have decided Ui'on
the principal forms for robes and redingotes. The
accessories in trimming offer an endless variety, to
meet the taste both of wearer and artiste. Bodies
me atill worn long-wuisted, more or lesa pointed
or rounded in front; the skirts are very full, rather
louder behind than in front; the sleevea long, or
halt long, smull at the top, and enlarging towards
the bottom, in th? Greek or pagode style. Buch ij
the foundation of our winter costume, which will
be found to resemble closely those worn for some
tune past. We must add that the body, a Liens
XV., with its multiplicity, of ornaments upon the
front, narrow frills of lace, ruches of ribbon, bias
chicorees, bows of all kiuds in velvet, mixed with
bouillonnta of tulle, ure each resorted to, according
to caprice or good taste, and are the distinguishing
characteristic* of the bodies k la Duburry, a la Mon
tespun, it la Valliere, tec.
It appears that the llounces will be worn deeper
and fuller than they have lately been mide; tall
and slender figures will hail this alteration with
pleasure.
Narrow ribbons, fringed or Bcolloped, with a
thread which can be drawn to form it into a frill,
ate used in a thousand different ways as trimming
for dresses ? the ribbons, with fringe on each edge,
are found very serviceable for ruches, heading of
llounces, braudebourgs, or echelie upon the front
of the skirts, 6c c We have already spokea of the
great succtssof the oriental fringes, as employed
on some magniticeul costumes Indeed, nothing
can be more splendid than the stars of gold, or
g< id Bnd silver mixed with a network of white
?i!k, or prettier and more graceful than the garni
tuie of pusstmeniaries, with fringes and grelols.
We must notice one, composed of a fringe about
ten inches deep, forming a light network of bldck
chenille, emitted with small grelots of jet, which
hang from the chenille uetwork ; this fringe ter
minates with long tassels of chenille md jet. We
have seen a black \e|vet dress, destined for a lady
at Madrid, trimmed with two rows of this fringe,
the small jacket having a narrower one to match
round the bottom. These fringes are likely to be
come much in request for fancy dresses this winter.
ltibbons leem to dispute with flowers for pre-emi
nence as ornaments for the coiffure ; they are dis
posed with to much elegance that we wonder not
at the demand for th?se ornaments. Among the
most eract ful and most fanciful coiffures, we cue
the Miiintetion ; this co.ffure i* formed of a h ilf
veil of black lace, with rouuded corners, which
fall on each side, veiling the neck and shoulders ;
it is fastened upon the head with a bouquet of roses, ,
mixed with some long-faded foliage, which oilers
an agreeable contrast to the more brilliant fresh
ness of the rose. The diplomacy of female taste
that originated this becoming coiflure is strikingly
revealed in this melange of contrast and harmony.
Morning capotes, made of homes of satins, in two
shades of the same color, are still worn ; green
and ruby are the favorite colors, but the prettiest
capotes are those made of velvet and satin, the
front being of velvet and the crown of satin, cover
ed wnh several rows of derp lace; to render
these more vlegiint, they are sometimes trimmed
with a small bunch of feathers on each side, of
th* siiine shade as the cspo't ; the inside is trimmed
with copies of ribbon, of three or five dillerent
etifrl'e, to mutch tin* capote.
For lull clrt-BU bo n tela, light colors are chosen,
such a* white, pink, or blue, Arc., trimmed with
fiiugrd fVatht r*, to match; choux of rititiou, with
a Hnall row hud in the mJdle, coTerrd with blonde,

In speaking of coiffures, we omitted to mention
that affiliation of liouiton lace is still ia great
Truest, especiilly when ornamented with white
I tun I nod light leave#, hunches of small chert lea,
or tuf's of geranium mixed with oilier flowers
The coillures of blonde r.re still much worn w.th
proad nabon, forming a scarf over the shoulder
The j>etit borda, or head dreteea, are trimmed
*iih flowers, feathers, or long flowing ribbon*
1 hey uie nude of crape or velvet, and their vogue
m ins greater than ever.
To return to the bonnets, we would mention
another of velvet, i f Chnmbord preen, the front of
velvet, the crown of fiitin, covered with ntrrow
bUi k lace; choux of different thadea of green.
