ONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday amounted
to about 8,000 balee, 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 6d. to lid, 1,200 Egyptian at bid. to 7id.,
and 500 Surat at 3,td. to 44,1.—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 sale with Coffee. Sugar has been rather
weaker, Rice firm, and in Saltpetre, Rum, and Tsllow,
there has been 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 from 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 he allowed to be mixed by the grocers, if sold
as a mixture.
Advicee. dated April, have been received from Mel-
bourne, Victoria. The following is from Ballarat:--
" If I cannot write of large yields I can report a steady
result remunerative to the diggers. The scarcity of
water prevents that enterprise which 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 few 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 tames on, hill and galley
will be explored, with a result I venture to predicate
that will rival any success es yet recorded. There are
some parties here who have done remarkably well,
many who have met with signal success, and others, as
ever will be the case, who have been entirely unsuc-
cessful. One party on the ground, lam informed,
had made 2,0001. in a very short period. A
party of five shared three pounds weight on Saturday
last, the result of a week's work; another told me that
his party was clearing from seventeen to twenty ounces
per 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,
and yet miss it; may throw down pick and
shovel in disgust or despair, and leave the prize for the
next corner to turn up, perhaps at the first spit. full. •
The uncertainty of gold digging is demonstrated, if do-
moratratiou were needful to illustrate that which hasat
become proverbial by the present state of I?

to disappoint. The sales, however, are chiefly specu-
lative, and the market droops from the absence of
counteracting operations by real buyers. French Shares
participate in the decline, as they come lower from Paris.
Gold Mine Shares are firm, but dull. Union of Aus-
tralia Bank Shares are lower, probably owing to the
project for a new bsnk for the colonies.
