done on the Derby to justify a quotation. Rhmus was very
much out of favour in the early part of the afternoon, and
after a slight rally dosed at 7 to 1, offered to a "monkey."

NEW

IINIAN TARIFF.

" The New Treaty of Commerce and Navigatton
between her Majesty and the King of Sardinia," signed at
London on the 2ith of February, 1851, is one of the most
important and gratifying documents that have appeared of
late. This treaty commences by a preamble to the effect
that her Majesty the Qaeen of Great Britain and Ireland,
and his Majesty the King of Sardinia, being desirous of
giving to the commercial relations between the countries
which Provident,* has committed to their care, the utmost
possible development, and being persuaded that this de-
sirable object can be obtained only by removing every im-
pediment to commerce and navigation, they have resolved
reciprocally to secure to their respective subjects the full
extent and consequence of the benefits resulting from the
two legislative acts respectively passed, in England on the
26th of June, 1649, for the amendment of the Navigation
Laws, and in the Sardinian States on the 6th of June, 1850,
fur the abolition of differential duties.
For this purpose Lord Palmerston, Mr. Labouchere, and
the Marquis D'Areglio are appointed plenipotentiaries tie
cattle a treaty. This is the treaty, which is selemillsel
parliament, and which has just received sathetentlenp
the confirmation of the Sardinian Assembly by a large
majority.
The first article provides for complete reciprocity and
liberty of commerce between the subjects of the contract-
ing parties.
The 'trend article provides for a complete reciprocity of
navigation regarding all merchandise—and especially enacts
that such equality of treatment shall take effect, whether
such merchandise come directly from the place of origin
or from any other place.
1 he third article confirms the equality of the preceding,
without distinction as to destination.
The fourth prutects the subjects of Great Britain and
Sardinia repectively from all restraint as to sale and par-
chine—the crown monopolies of tobacco, salt, gunpowder,
ball and shot, and playing-cards, being alone excepted.
The fifth provides for a community of treatment respect-
ng tonnage, harbour, and pilot dues.
'the sixth provides that British and Sardinian vessels
shall be deemed of the other country respectively for all
immunities attached to either.
The seventh provides that the same reciprocity shall
exist as to ports, basins, docks, and roadsteads respectively.
The eight article permits the discharge of portions of
cargoes.
The ninth excepts the coasting trade of both countries.
The tenth provides securities as to wreck and salvage.
The eleventh is, perhaps, the most important se ell, he
it confers upon Great Britain the of the re-
duced tariff, already conceded by &Wide Is
The twelfth article is merely a reeeriltilla of 411111•61,
rights of the other power.
The thirteenth provides for the settlement of disputes.
The fourteenth relates to the right of Individuals to
manage their own commercial affairs without any inter-
ference in the country of the other powers.
Ihe reductions in the Sardinian tariff upon articles im-
ported from Great Britain is of the utmost importance.
On zinc the reduction amounts to one-half the present
duties.

On copper a like reduction.
Upon iron reductions spread over a still larger amount.
Steel one-half.
Mirrors and flint glass, porcelain, coloured or gilt, books,
refined sugar, all half reduced or more.
Leather and prepared skins reduced to 66f. 66c., instead
of 1501.
Wool tissues and similar articles reduced to If. from 3f.
Wool carded and combed reduced one-half.
Cotton yarn (inferior to No. 20) maimed from 90c. to 20e.,
and so on.
Cotton yarn reduced in the same ratio.
And coil fish reduced 25 per cent.
'1 hese alterations cannot fail to be both useful and satis-
factory to both countries. In the navigation laws we have
set the example of complete freedom; and, without exact-
ing conditions, it is most satisfactory to find our wise ex-
ample followed by entry country having the smallest pre-
tension to representative government. fhe reductions in
the tariffs of foreign countries is also a most satisfactory re-
sult, showing that they,;too, are aware of the advantages to
their own people, arising from extended commerce, and
from having all the necessary articles provided by other
countries wade more easy and accessible to thew own
subjects.

In foreign shares--in Cobreidl9; and Copiapo
at 61.
A large amount of business has been transacted
this week iu dividend mines, as well as in first-class
speculative shares. The resolution of the Mining
Exchange. not to deal in any mines that will not
bear the strictest investigation, appears to have given
general satisfaetion, and a great number of new
buyers are appearing in the market.
We have more than once remarked upon the new
companies advertised to work abandoned mines,
and in many instances charging premiums at start-
ing to the extent of several thousand pounds,
either in money or in free shares, a mode
of proceeding which is open to grave ob-
jection, as mines have sufficient uncertainty in them
without being hampered at their outset by any such
preguant sources ot•ddficulty. It is stated that in the
ease of more than one of the schemes lately started,
applications were made for more shares than were to
be allotted, but on the day of payment the money
was not forthcoming. We have no reason to think,
however, that these arc other than exceptional cues,
and we mention the circumstance for the sake of in-
ducing caution. One company has been formed
this week, which, as it shows a mode of procedure
different from the many, deserves to be specially
noticed. We allude to the West 'Wheal Alfred, on the
run of the Alfred Consols, and West Alfred Consols
Lodes. The setts having been obtained with some
difficulty, the shares were at once taken up by mining
capitalists, and 5,000/. subscribed, the whole of which
will go to work the mine. This is as it should be,
and were such conduct generally pursued, there
would be greater confidence amoung the general
public.
The• principal transactions have been in Tmlawney,
Mary Ann, Tregortlan, Ilerodefoot, South Caradon,
West Caradon, and Tretnayne, and it may as weli
be observed from the official list no great change
has taken place in price, except iu Tregordans,
which have risen 5/. per share.
The following are the present imitations of the
market taken from the official list of to-day:—
