MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
Ihe sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were es-
timated at 10;000 bales, of which 1,000 American were
taken for export, and 5,000 on speculation. The market
was active at full prices. The sales nompriied 8,500
American, 400 Pernam and Maranham at 6d. to 6d., 300
Egyptian at Bid. to 7d., 800 Surat at aid. to 4d. per
lb.—Railway Shares were very flat.
In an annual statement by Mr. Nicholas Soames we
have various interesting particulars of the Tallow
Market. The estimated supply to London from all
places for the year ensuing, that is from June 1, is.
48,000 casks from Russia, and 3,200 casks from other
places, making, with the stock an hand, 121,000 casks,
and the estimated delivery for tile, year being 100,000
casks, the stock on the Ist June, 1853, will be 21,000
casks. The ." summing up" in the document referred to
is as follows:
In the year 1850 our price tallied very nearly with
the present price, namely, 375. Ist Y.C. Our aggregate
quantity also corresponded very elosely with the present
estimate. If two eventful years, through which the
produce of English Tallow has been large, and
during which the market has sustained one
year of excessive importation from St. Be-
tersburgh ; also the breaking up of a speculation
for an advance in price here, and the re-action attend-
ant upon that circumstance, to which the low prices of
this spring may be partially attributed—if this period
and these events have produced but little depreciation
from the price of 375., it may be inferred that there is
something substantial in that price, and fitting under
the circumstances; because it ' has been well
tried. Proprietors of goods may reasonably opine
that they will ultimately command that price.
Consigners may view it as a safe mark for the
season.
Manufacturers may have confidence in it, notwithatand.
and demand more nearly
ing that there is an estimated surplus. of 20,000 casks for
These conclu-
the year. Were supply

and force to the
noted that the
and the total quantity 1 _ goods to 'be dealt
it must be
'with.. Finally,
wants of Great .Britaia are 140,000 casks annually.
London will not absolutely require
more than 30,000 to
of Tallow-from Yeteraburgh

The Committee ot Dee isa American Bondholders
have received edifices from Mr. Lord, dated ".La
a the 10th uIG . He, has had s further
GtlaYr-' with the Venezuelan some core
respondenee wi Finance Minister,
which is being translated, and will appear to-morrow.
Meantime the Committee have to siate that, instead of
the 35,0001., the remittance of which. had been pro-
mised for paying and
two half-yearly dividends
of last October an April, they had only re-
ceived by this packet 5,4001., thereby making up, with
the previous remittances, only y one' of the just mentioned
two dividends!. The Minister adds that the Government
intends going ots remitting something by every subse-
quent packet. The au ject,of the ratification of the agree-
ment for the four years arrears of interest had not yet been
taken up again by Congress; since, however, that legislative
-body were only to remain togethei•for another fortnight,
'the next packet will bring the news whether this matter
has been again postponed for another year. Mr.
Lord expresses himself greatly disappointed with the
dilatory progress of these proceedings.
The committee of Mexican Bondholders have re-
ceived adrices from the city of Mexico to the 4th, and
,from Vera Cruz to the 6th ult. The latter are from
Mr. Falconnet, who bad arrived there on the 4th, and
intended to 'leave for Mexico on the afternoon of
the 6th.

The legal tariff had been re-established in Matamoros.
and it was said that the Government intended to pro-
ceed against the importers of goods under the Avalos
• tariff fur lbe difference. The English and German
houses in
.Vera Crux,' ,hOwever, still refused tto pay the
rates of the legal tariff on their imports since November
last, and it seems that the Government would bo nom-
pelled to seize goods for the payment of the duties.
„ This dispute, had, in the meanwhile, of course, had the
effect of temporarily diminishing the produce of the du-
ties, and the portion which had accrued for the payment
of the dividend during the first four months of the year
in Vera. Cruz appears for that reason only to have been
152,324 ,dollars.
Nu decision had as yet been obtained in the question
of the exemption of the indemnity money from export
duty, but Mr. Falconnet hoped that on his arrival in the
capital the free exportation of that inoriey would be
granted.
• • The' administrator of the Customhouse of Ma-
zatlan having withoht authority disposed of an amount
belonging to the bondholders, for Government purposes,
the President suspended him for one month, and or-
dered a circular to be addressed to all the adminis-
trators of customs, warning them
.against touching the
monies assioed for the payment of the dividend on
the foreign debt for any other purpose whatever.
. It is now ascertained that the ‘f.revolution" in Mexico
city was merely a " street. row."
The amount of the Bills drawn here upon the Three
Presidencies-during the last fortnight by the honourable
East India Company is only 26,1781,

The Eoglish Funds have been rather feebler, and the

Mr. LOCKHART presented a petition from the
General Assembly of the Church of Scotland against
the grant' to Maynooth.
Several petitions to the same effect were presented by

Sir J. Y. BULLER presented a petition in favour of
an ocean penny postage.
MAYNOOTH COLLEGE.
On the order of the day being read for resuming the
adjourned debate on the College of Maynooth,
Mr. FRESHFIELD said it hid been contended that
the proposition of his Hon. Friend Mr. Spooner was an
useless one, because nothing definite could be done upon
it, but he thought that was a very hard and unjust ob-
jection at this late period of the day, for his Hon. Friend
had given notice of his motion as early as the 3d of
February, and those who now opposed him were chiefly
instramental in causing the delay that had taken place
before the question was brought before the House. It
was impossible to say that an inquiry could not be pro-
perly
conducted in the present session, the termi-
nation of which was at present quite uncertain.
They were charged with creating a religious cry
throughout the country in bringing forward the subject,
but what was more likely to produce a general cry of
dissatisfaction among the 100,000 persons who had peti-
tioned against the grant to Maynooth than to refuse an
inquiry into the system of education pursued at that
establishment? It was admitted on all sides that there
ought, and must bo, an inquiry; and under those cir-
cumstances he saw no reason why the motion of his
Honourable Friend should not he agreed to. He did not
complain of the existence of Roman Catholics in the
kingdom, nor that they were taught according to their
own tenets; for a spirit of persecution was furthest from
his intention, but he said that the conscientious and honest
doubts of the 100,000 who bad petitioned the House
ought to be satisfied; and that they should be shown
that the grant which was made permanent in 1845 was
not improperly and mischievously applied.—(Dear.)
He saw no objection to the inquiry being conducted by
a Royal Commission, if the Government were disposed
to accede to the adoption of such a course.
Mr. HERBERT said it was his intention to vote both
against the motion and the amendment. He thought if
the . Lion. Member (Mr. Spooner) really desired a fair
and legitimate inquiry, he would best show his sincerity
by withdrawing his motion and availing himself of the
suggestion of the Hon. Member who had just addressed
the House. There were at present 8 visitors, 3 of
which were appointed by the College of Maynootb, and
5 by her Maje,ty, who were bound to visit the College
every 12 months, and to inquire into its management
and discipline, and the Lord-Lieutenant had power to
require an additional visionion, and he considered it
was absurd fur a private Member to attempt to super-
sede a tribunal of this nature which had been constituted
by.Psrliament. If that tribunal Were incompetent, and
did not properly discharge its functions, the Government
ought on its own respoesibility to propose the substitu-
tion of another tribunal, and not to follow in the wake
of the Hon. Member for North 'VVarwickshire.—(Hear.)
Sii W. VERNER considered that as Maynooth
was intended for the education of young men
who. were designed for the Roman Catholic
priesthood, they had a right to know the system of in-
struction given, and •to what section of the Roman Ca-
tholics they professed to belong; for all who had tra-
tvietinlies odifn foreign countries knew there were two descrip-
Catholics—one who taught that the Pope had
no right or authority to intsrfere with the prerogative of
the Sovereign, the other that a Sovereign bad no right
to expect allegiance or obedience from Roman Ca tho-
lie subjects, unless. with tho acquiescence of the
he
Pope, who was a higher power. Now,
should like to know under which of these classes May-
nooth,erd was, to be placed.. He was given to
that the rankest, intolerance was taught at
to be
which even went so lar as to say
that heresy ought
punished with death. The Honourable thue
Member then College,
understand
proceeded to complain of the
persecution of Roman
a person who said he had been.id
Catholics, and stated that hey yield

Mr. MAGAN was understood 'to say that the state-
ment was untrue.—(Cries of " Order," and " Retract.") •
Tee SPEAKER said, as the Hon. Member had not
giventbe name of the writer, it was not in order for any ,
other Hon. Member to say the statement was untrue.
The Hon. Member must therefore retract the insinuation.
Mr. MAGAN said he was ready to do so in a Parlia-
mentary sense.—(Laughter.)
Sir W. VERNER concluded by rebutting the accusa-
tion, as to the proposed inquiry being a 'ham- and
delusion, observing that the object of its promoters was
to attend to the interests of Protestants, and to see tbat a
grant given for one ptirpose was not improperly applied
to another,
