but the avalanche of Foreign merchandise with which we are being flooded, and the exhausting Specie drain to Europe, are well calculated to neutralize, to some extent, these favorable elements.Tbe entries of Foreign merchandise at this port since 1st January, are about GO per cent, in excess of the corresponding period of last year, with very little prospect of an abatement for some weeks to come.The receipts for duties for the month just closed reach $5,010,-393,60, being the largest amount ever received here in a single month.An immense amount of goods have been placed in tbe Bonded Warehouses during the Spring and Summer, and their withdrawal, on the arrival of active business, must cause a much more lively demand for money than at present obtains.So long as the balance of Exchange in merchantable commodities continues to be thus disproportionately against us, we will have to endure the difficulties and penalties of just inequality of traffic with other nations w the products of labor and art, as we have witnessed during the past three years.The current money rates are 615)7 cent, on call, mostly at the latter rate, and 7)4427 ^ cent according to maturity.\"We have had a copious fall of rain since our last issue, which seems to have extended to nearly all parts of the Country, and will do an unspeakable;» amount of good in reviving the drooping energies of the growing crops.The weather continues extremely warm, and we have rarely known a season when so many merchants were absent from town.HONG KONG MARKET.Hong Kong, May 22, 1856.KljTEAS.\u2014Higher rates demanded for good and tine, of which stock very small.PORT OF QUEBEC.ARRIVED\u2014AUGUST 2.Brig Britius, Porter, 25th May, Liverpool, Buchanan & Harris, machinery .Zion, Jamieson,;i2th Jane, Aberdeen, order, bal Bark Alpha, Tulloch, 9th June, Valincia, order, bal .Samuel Boddington, Mowat,27th May, Cromarty, do, do August 3.Ship Langgarteu, Atbrest, 18th June, Liverpool order, bal -Marion, Stewart, 26thJ,June, Glasgow, Gillespie & Co, general cargo -Rajahgopaul, Bainbridge, 17th do,Marseilles, G B Symes & co, bal -Mariane, Mortley, 3rd May,Falmouth,E Bur- stall & cy, do Brig Argus, Feehan, 15th July, Sydney, order, coals -Annie Laurie, Watters, 18tli July, Sydney, order, coals -Charlotte, Wallis, 24th May, Sunderland, A ^ Joseph & co, con,a -Sarepta, Ayres, 25th June, Swansea, A Gil- mour & eo, ballast The New Diorama oe the Russian War at the City Concert Hall is one of the most attractive and interesting exhibitions in the city.The scenery is most artistically painted, and the numerous dioramic effects judiciously introduced.Mr.Hanington adds another attraction to his entertainment this week, viz ;

This Lottery is on the Havana plan, all the prizes being drawn, thus preventing the possibility of mathematical combinations of swindling.In the scheme there are 15,190 prizes, amounting to $102,000, and only 14,810 blanks, actually more prizes than blanks.Tha laws of the State of Georgia are very particular in appointing honorable and disinterested parties as commissioners, whose duty it is to see that everything is conducted fairly.We observe by their circular that tickets are $5 ; Shares in proportion.\u2014See Advt, Arrival of the \u201c Emeu,\u201d New York, August 4, 1856.The Steamer Emeu, from Havre, July 21st, has arrived.She brings no later intelligence oi the fighting in Spain than that furnished by the arrival of the Arabia.\t.A correspondent of .the London Times mil-mates that Espartero may have been put under arrest by Donnell, as nothing was known of his whereabouts.Advices from Florence state that a negotiation has been pending for some time between the Governments of Rome, Naples, Florence and Modena, for the purpose of foiming a confederation of those States under the patronage of Austria.London, July 19, 11, A.M.Consols for money 9554'® 95%.Account 7th August 95% ® 95%.Parliament would probably be prorogued on the 26th.A serious riot occurred at Aldershott Camp on the nights of the 17th and 18tb, between the German troops and the 41st regiment ; two German soldiers were killed, and a number were wounded on both sides, The immediate cause of the outbreak was not known.There had been for some time nu alarming State of excitement in Italy.Serious disturbau-ces broke out in the Papal States ; also at Naples.A Republican Conspiracy had been detected at Farentnne, Two Sicilies\u2014several arrests were made The Russian Ambassador, at Rome, hid arrived.There had been difficulties with the Holy See touching the nomination of Bishops for Poland.New York, August 4.The Steamer Atlantic was signalled at one o\u2019clock.imva!
