We have later news from Australia, our dates
being Sydney, March 14. A fair amount of business
had been transacted, in Colonial .Shares. Prices
remained firm, but without any alteration. The
following were the quotations at which sales had
been effected :—Union Bank shares at 581. per
share, and Commercial Bunk shares at 42/: per
share. Government Debentures in great request,
those bearing interest at the rate of 31d.
per diem had been sold at, par and accrued
interest. The twenty year Debentures; bearing 5
per cent. interest, would command a small premium
The government had during the week, issued a
notice calling for tenders for 50,000/ of the New
or Interminable Debentures. Geelong and Mel-
bourne Railway Debentures had changed hands
at-5 per cent. premium and accrued interest. It
is proposed by the members of the Sydeny Cham
ber;of Commerce to alter the Usance of Exchange
on England from 30 to 90 days sight. If this pro-
position is agreed to by the Banks, and the-mer-
cantile community, it will cause. a great rise
in debentures, because they were at the
present rate of exchange eagerly bought
up .for remittance to England. The • receipt
of gold at Sydney for the week was some-
what about 1,400 ozs. The labour market was
Inlre brisk, and the non-arrival of emigration
ships, several of which were fully due, had caused
a slight rise in -.the rate of wages. The Wool,
Tallow, and Hide markets continued unchanged.
