THE NORTHERN TIMES.-LIVERPOOL MONDAY, JULY 20, 1857.

quoted for silver here was too low to attract any
large supplies from the Continent, The silver
market is now, however, decidedly firmer, and the
collection of silver on the Continent will probably
be proportionately stimulated.
The arrival is reported of the steamer Baron
Osy, from Antwerp, with 70 cases and 5 bags of
silver on freight, estimated to be worth nearly
60,0001.

The Pelican has arrived from Shanghai with
275,700 lbs. of tea on freight. The Acme' has also
arrived from the same port
Letters from St. Petersburg, dated the 10th July,
report a considerable fall in Tallow, which was
quoted 175 roubles for August delivery. The
exchange on London ruled at 37-Z-1 to 38d, which
will barely allow of the exportation of gold to this
side. In the event, however, of the rate declining
below this quotation, some moderate amounts may
be looked for. The exchange on Amsterdam was
quoted at 1861 to ; on Hamburg, 33 9-16 to 11-
16; and on Paris, 397 to 400.
The Admiralty will receive tenders on the 30th
inst. for the hire of two or three screw steamers,
to convey about 1,500 men from England to Hong
Kong.
The Admiralty will receive tenders on the 11th
of August for the supply and delivery on the
western coast of Arrica of 7,300 tons of ooals.
The traffic returns of the Grand Trunk Railway
of Canada for the week ending June 27th show
total receipts of 10,032, against 5,197 corresponding
week last year.
Respecting the movements on Mines during the
week, the Mining Journal of to-day states :
The news from India has caused great depression in the
funds, and considerable daily fluctuations in prices ; but
money has been easier daring the week, and the mining
market quite as active as we could reasonably expect under
all circumstances. The Banca tin sales are over, and the
price realised said to be £lO per ton beyond the price of
last year ; and it is reported, also, that the tin was pur-
chased by foreigners, the English smelters not getting any.
If this be true, their disappointment will be great, but will
cause anything but regret to the miners, who have been
compelled for some time past to submit to constant reduc-
tions in price, these Dutch sales being made the pretext
for dropping the price of English ore week by week. And
now, if the miners manage their returns properly, a good
advance must take place.
Trade in the north of Ireland during the week
has been rather brisk. The Fiax Crop has been
greatly benefitted by the slight rains of the last few
days ; and some fields look very promising. Last
year's crop is nearly exhausted, and of the finer
qualities of fibre, only small stocks exist, even in
the hands of merchants. Rates are Os to 7s 10d
per stone for handseutched ; and 7s to 12s 6tl for
milled. Yarns are held for more money ; and if
manufacturers had begun to push work, the scale
of prices would be likely to go up several points.
Linens, in the white state, do not range so heavily
as they did in the July of last year. Bleaching
operations go on briskly at all the establishments
in the three counties. Brown goods, whether of
hand or power-loom, sell at full prices; the cost of
production is still high, as compared with the rates
of value. It is expected that, before the close of
the year, a large addition will have been made to
the number of steam-looms at work in the North
of Ireland.

metal, but prices are without alteration. Iron.—ln
Staffordshire there is great firmness, several considerable
American orders having been given out. The Welsh
makers are also better employed, and as money becomes
easier a good business is anticipated. Tin.—Great interest
has been excited in this metal during the week, in conse-
quence of the Dutch sale on the 16th, when the price
realised for Banta was extraordinarily high, being 821 f.,
or equal to about £139 per ton here; and it is said on
'Change that even at this price purchases have changed
hands at a premium. A large advance in English will be
the immediate consequence of the high price realised for
Bann. Lead.—This market is still quite firm, and lead is
in good request, although scarcely so active as for soma
weeks past. Spelter is not in request, and prices are
weaker.

Sortridge Consols Mine is ealled for the 27th inst•
