The following appeared in a portion of our
impression of yesterday :

COMMERCIAL.

The Budget havinc, been made known on a Saturday
there was little, opportunity° of tracing, its effect on the
different markets. The chief movement was in brandy,
in which the transactions were very active, at a rise of
6d to 9d per gallon ; higher prices were also insisted
upon for wines, eSpecially sherry. The proposed aboli-
tion of the duty on tallow has been followed by a virtual
rise of about 6d. In other articles, such as colonial
produce, fruits, and provisions, there were no transac-
tions to serve as any guide for opinion'.
