We have received intelligence from England,
since our last, down to the 1eth ult. The news is
not of much importance,-the Oregon excitement
was passing away, aud the affairs With the United
States are not discussed. Cotton had declined, but
there material change in any other article o.
American produce. The news from Mexico Is
more warke, and our relations with that country
are becoming more unsettled. These advices, how
ever, have caused but little influence IN our mar
ket. Phe Spring season is RAPIDLY passing away,
and trade IS rather slack. The sales have mol
been large, although merchants, generally, are OF
opinion that they have sold sufficient amount,
and anticipate heavy Fall trade. The receipts,
by the Canal, of Flour have not been as large as
was anticipated ;-many OF the mllers are Keep
ing back, in order to Hood the market. In con-
sequence Of the moderate receipts prices have
gone up. The business travel falls off, the fash
ionable travel has commenced which together
with the religious anniversaries, have filled our
city with strangers. Our news from Europe has
been received up TO the latest dates;-we shall have
no steamer for ten days TO come. Express.
