This hes been a very quiet day in the Stock Ex-
change, both in the English and foreign market".
The first price of Consols was 91 to/. They after-
wards fell to 911 for a short time, and soon rallied to
911 to /, at which they remained during the rest of
the day.
The Three per Cents. Reduced were do'e at 901
and 901, and the New Three and-a-Quarter per
Cent.. at 901 and 91.
Bank Stock was done at 195 ; and Long Anna.
ties at 8 9-16, 1, a, and 8 13.16 ; and the Annuities
expiring Oct 10, 1859, at 8 5-16.
Exchequer Bills were done at 455. and 48s. prem.l
and India Bondi at 68s. and 71s. prem.; but in India
Stock there were no dealings to-day.
The fluctuation in Mexican stocks during the last
few days may probably arise from there being no
accounts of hir.Robertson'enegotiationsat Mexico offi-
cially published ; for as yet they consist only of " pour
plrler" with the Minister of Finance, who, no doubt,
wishes to make the best terms he can for his govern-
ment. There seems no reason to doubt the good
disposition of the minister, who manifests no inclina-
tion to "repudiate," bat on the century every wish
to promise as much as he sees his way to p :form.
A few days will probably bring us WOW definite
scheme for placing the interests of the bondholders
on a more permanent footing than heretofore.
The advice' from Rotterdam in the City to-day are

somewhat improved. The rates of exchange were as

The last China mail brings intelligence from Sin-
gapore, ander date of the 7th April, of the probability
of an important desideratum being supplied for the
convenience of shipping in the Eastern seas, by the
formation of " • company, for the purpose of con-
strue:in a dry dock at the island of Bruni, who
bars received from the government the promise
et aMe years' lease of the island, on condition that
Os work is carried through within a reasonable pe-
eled. The dock now intended to be built is not of so
=a sire as that originally proposed, but will be
dent to take in a versed of 600 to 700 tons.
The Peninsular Company, and others, for whose
steamers a large. dock of the size originally pro-
jected would be principally required, have, we believe,
declined to take that interest in the concern which
would alone have rendered practicable the construc-
tion of the dock on the scale originally
intended. It will still, however, be eminently
immoral to the great majority of the sailing
newels frequenting this port, and we have no doubt
will be found highly remunerative to the share-
bidders." At prompt there is no means of docking or
beaviog down a vessel at Singapore, or any adjaosnt
gen; and when the extent of oor shipping to that
glic• and coatignons ports is considered, the amia-
bly to be derived from the construction of a dal

within a few mites to westward of the roadsteid of
Singapore must b eery great.
Oar atte_tion ha 4 brain drawn to a statement which
has juit been pubhhed by the Sussex and Brighton
&miry fur Promoting Coloniziti. n, which was *tab!.
lished in August, 1848, as a brat& of the society in
London for promoting colonization and emigration.
The formation of branch anti. ties of this nature
throughout the kingcl-m would, we apprehend, prose
an immense benefit to our hboorivg population, if we
may judge frem the results of the operations of the Sus-
se x branch during the short juriod of its exultance.
Since its formation, in An(ust last, this sreiety bee
been the means of seeding out to Australia 49
families, consieting of 101 individuals, one-third of
the cost of whose (migration has been berme by them-
selves, and the other two-thirds by government, hem
a colonial fund supplied through the intervention of
this society. The expense of emigration to Australia
appears to have been 131. per head, on an average,
and the society finding that the colonial fund which
hes hitherto enabled theta t 3 do so much is now ex-
hausted, are desirous to stimulate parishes and locali-
ties to pr irde • fund to twist, say to the extent
of ose-half the oat, such emigrants as are unable to
raise the entire n.e(ns of defraying the cast of outfit
and passage for their families, when led to take this
step with a view to improve their circumstances, and
provide for their children more comfortably than they
feel it possible to do at borne.

was animated and firm, and the sales were about 10,000 bales, In-
cluding 1,000 Americans for export, and 3,000 Americans, and 1,000
Brazilians for speculation.
MANCIUDITIIt, Juxs 7. —The active movement which has
taken place in the Liverpool cotton market, together with favorable
seeounts from India by the overland mail, have produced a decidedly
firm feeling in our market; and previous rates are not only welt
maintained, but in some man an advance Om bees obtained. A OM-
siderabie number of contracts have been 'Mewed Into for future
delivery. Aay accumulations which bad previondy taken place have
been entirely clewed off. Our yarn market also exhibits great firm-
ness, sad In some cars an advance has been mid on the rates ruling
prior to the arrival of the aver land wail. There Is, however, an in.
dipporition thorn to give there advanced rates ; and as the tontines-
tai demand is still lAnguld It is probable that we shall have a retro-
grade statement to about the rates previously ruling.

HOSIERY AND LACE TRADES. NOTTIWORAI"
Jane 7.—The turn-out of the wrought cotton bore bands emulants,
and the breach between the operative thurne, men and the maser
stocklnger end ho er still keeps widening, ae In Amid and Marl'
the journeymen ham taken in their names to the number of several
hundreds. The hosiers, we regret to ewe, seem determined not to
submit to the wishes of the wor!inieri, Crutch they certainly have
made concerons to endeavour t conciliate. The first demand was
for widths as well as price, but t is has been abandon. d, and the
prime now sired are 10. per dozen, 30 to 36 gaur ; Is. 6d. above 36
to 40 gauge; above 40 to 46 arse, 2s. ; and above that Is. t 4. per
dozen; bat unfortunately very few hose are now made of that quality.

hosiers require a lenath of two inches on each stocking longer
than what was generally made previous to 1842; thus

to be oracle 23 inch, and this the hands ate determined to resist, as
