SPAIN

Oar necounfs from are of the 3d inst.
The Espana, alluding to a report published in the
Epoca, of the resignation of Lord HOWDEN, says :
" The Epoca announces that Lord Howden has given
in his resignation as Envoy Extraordinary and Minister
Plenipotentiary in this city. A change of Cabinet hav-
ing taken place in England, there would be nothing
strange in such a proceeding, if we remember that, on
the fall of Lord Palmerston, Lord Howden offered his
resignation. In any case we believe that the resignation
of the Minister of England would be generally regretted.
The amenity of his conduct, and the excellent qualities
which he possesses have obtained him many friends."
The Heraldo on the same subject says :
" Several journals have announced that the Am-
bassador of her Britannic Majesty in this city has
sent his resignation to London in consequence of
the change of Cabinet, which has just taken place.
Although such a proceeding is usual in diplomacy,
and all the representatives of the Queen of England
abroad, give in their resignations not only when there is
a total change of Cabinet, but when the Minister on
whom they depend is changed, this step has not yet
been taken, inasmuch as Lord Howden does not yet
know officially the nomination of the new Minister of
Foreign Affairs. Nevertheless, resignations are not al-
ways accepted; and not many years ago we saw a Mi-
nisterial change in
England without any one of the di-
plomatic agents being changed. We should be very glad
if the same fact should now occur as regards Spain.
Whatever may be the foreign policy which Lord Derby
proposes to follow, we believe it difficult for him to find
a better representative for Spain than Lord Howden, or
one more acquainted with our customs and ideas, or
more generally respected by all parties; and conse-
quently better qualified to draw closer ties of friendship,
which, in our opinion, are alike advantageous to both
countries."

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at from 8,000 to 9,000 bales, of which 500
American were taken for export, and 500 American
and 1,000 Surat on speculation. The market closed
tamely. The sales comprised 500 Pernam and
Maranham, at sid. to Sid.• 200 Bahia, at sid. to 6hd.;
700 Egyptian, at bid. to 9d.; 2,000 Surat, at 3d. to 4kd.;
150 Sea Island, at Is. 2d. to ls. lOid.; and the re-
mainder American.—ln Railway Shares only a limited
business was done with little variation in prices.
The letters and papers by the American mail have
been delivered this morning. The Stock Market was
without particular change. A statement of the exports
of bullion from New York, last year, makes the amount
43,723,209 dollars, or rather more than was received from
California. The shipments of Cotton and Breadstuffs
were, during the week to the 20th ult., rather
large. An immense company was being formed by a
combination of several undertakings, and the Bill
was expected to pass the Legislature of Maryland.
This "monster" corporation, as its opponents termed
it, is to be formed by the consolidation of seven char-
tered companies, as follows:—The " Cumberland Coal
and Iron Company," the " People's Company," the
" Preston Company," the " Washington Company,"
the " Maryland Mining Company," the " Astor
Company," and " the Buena Vista Company,"
under the name of the Cumberland Coal and Iron

Company. This amended charter increases the capital
stock to 5,000,000 dollars, and enables the company to
hold 12,000 acres of land. The design is to purchase,
and unite and work, under one organization, the branch
railroads, the boats, vessels, and coal lands, and the en-
tire machinery of operations until its delivery into the
hands of the purchaser, so that the mines can be worked
efficiently and profitably. A section of the charter re-
quires the company to send to market 200,000 tons of
coal annually, under penalty of forfeiture of charter.
Their plan of operations, however, contemplates the
mining of 500,000 to 1,000,000 tons per annum.
The Bill to establish free banks in Pennsylvania had
been throws out.
The Mexican accounts given in the American papers
state that a Bill bad been read twice in Congress for a
railroad from Mexico to Vera Cruz. The country
seemed to bo unusually quiet. The dates are Jan. 31
from the city of Mexico.
Bermuda advices of the 12th ult. state that the salt
crop of Turk's Island was likely to be very good.
Cape Hayden advices mention that, owing to the
holidays and the rainy weather, but little was doing up
to the 6th ult., and not mach coffee was coming in.
The market price for the article was steady. Logwood
abundant.
There is a very quiescent tone in business circles in
the City, and an indisposition to enter into new engage-
ments until it is seen whether Parliament will be dis-
solved forthwith.
The English Stock Market has been very steady and
there is more firmness in the price for money. Con-
sols have been quoted 974 to i for Transfer, and are
now 97k for Account. The New Three-and-a-Quar-
ter per Cents. have been 994 to -I, and the Three
per Cents., 98k to k. Bank Stock has risen again, being
219 to 220. In South Sea Stock there has been a
bargain at 1071. East India Bonds are 725. premium,
but nothing has been done in Exchequer-bills.
Consols for April are 971
Foreign Securities have been very quiet, and the
speculation in them has quite gone off. Mexican
have been 32i to 33, Peruvian Deferred 55, and
Equador 5. With respect to the Mexican Indemnity we
hear that an arrangement of a modified and more favour-
able character has been provisionally entered into with
Messrs. Baring's, and will be submitted to the meeting
to-morrow, and if report speak truly, that emi-
nent firm has consented to reduce the commission
that was to have been:charged. Sardinian Stock is sup-
ported at 894 to uoi. Spanish Five per Cents. are nomi-
nally 24 to 25k, and the Three per Cents. 414 to 424.
The New Deferred have been 18i to 19. Venezuela
Stock keeps up very fairly, being at 42 to 43. French
Five per Cents. are 103 with the exchange at 25 35.
Dutch Four per Cents, have been at 92i.
In Railway Shares there is much less doing, and they
remain generally at about the previous rates. The
foreign lines have been quite nominal.
mining shares have been dull, but at about former
prices. Peninsular and Oriental Steam support the rise
of yesterday.
Several bargains have been entered into in Joint-Stock
Bank shares, and at full prices.
