MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday amounted
to about 8,000 bales, of which 1,000 American. were for
export, and 1,000 ditto and 1,000 Egyptian were taken
by speculators. The market closed steadily, but Ame-
rican sold at rather easier rates for the middling sorts.
The sales comprised 1,000 American, 300 Pernam and
Maranham at 60. to 7d, 1,200 Egyptian at eid. to 7d.,
and 500 Surat at to 411—The Railway Share
Market was quiet, but prices were firm.
In the Colonial Markets, this week, business has been
quiet. Coffee has risen in consequence of the Treasury
order sent down to the Excise respecting an enforce-
ment of the Excise regulation, that Chicory shall not be
mixed before s Ale with Coffee. Sugar has been rather
weaker, Rice firm, and in Saltpetre, Rum, and Teflow,
there hats lasen no particular change. Tea has been more
dealt in, Cotton is scarcely so dear, and Cochineal con-
tinues in favour. The Metal Market appears to be in'a
satisfactory condition, and dried fruit is firm, owing to
the bad accounts froze the places of growth.
The Treasury Order concerning chicory (which ap-
pears in another column) is, by many of the trade, con-
sidered too stringent, and the growers of chicory think
it should be allowed to be mixed by the grocers, if sold
as a mixture.
Advice_ .s dated April, have been received from Mel-
bourne, Victoria. The following is from BeHerat:—
" If I cannot write of large yields I can report a steady
result remunerative to the diggers. The scarcity of
water prevents that enterprise welch otherwise would be
brought into play from developing itself, and confines
their present operations to a limited tract on the
flat trending towards Yuille's station. Brilliant
recollectiens' of a tew months past still exercise a
Powerful effect, and the gold digger hugs close to the
Golden Point, as the mariner of old to the sea board—
but soon as the winter rain comes on, hill and gulley will be explored, with a result I venture to predicate
that will rival any succes as yet record( d. There are
spree parties here who have done remarkably well,
many who have met with signal success, and others, as
ever will he the case, who have been entirely unsuc-
cessful. Ore party on the ground, lam in'ormed,
had made 2,0001 in a very abort period. A
party of five shared three pounds weight on Saturday
last, the result of a week's work; another told me thet
his party was clearing from seventeen to twenty ounces
psr day; and Messrs. Dunlop and Co., a party I believe
of five in number, realised 1,1001. in about a month,
But these instances of success must stand apart; they are
lucky strokes of fortune that neither foresight
or skill can attempt to parallel, for a gold
digger may be often within an inch of a fortune,
tied yet miss it; may throw down pick and
shovel in disgust or despair, and leave the prize for the
next comer to turn up, perhaps at the first spit. full.
The uncertainty of gold digging is demonstrated, it de-
monstration were needful to illustrate that which has
become proverbial by the present state of the flat,
where there are holes which have proved wondrously
prolific, but which are out-fltnked for many a yard, by
other holes, which have proved complete failures. Ex-
perieuce is at fault with regard to gold-seeking.'
