In Mark-lane to day business is dull at previous rates,
with larger arrivals.
At Amsterdam the home Funds were rather better,
but nothing particular was done in the Foreign Securi-
ties. The quotation of Austrian Bonds at Vienna on
the 29th ult. was 89i-
The Austrian finance department, inste-si of paying
in specie the amount of the coupuns drawn, offers a
new stock, bearing five per cent. interest, in the propor-
tion of 250 for every 100 florins.
The arrivals of shipping in London continue large,
and within the last few days they include vessels from
the Continent, the East and West Indies, and
North and South America, with valuable cargoes
of ull kinds of produce. The favourable
statement made yesterday at the London Dock meeting,
and to which we exclusively referred, shows that there
has been greater activity in tereign trade this year than
last, and it would be idle to contend that vessels bring-
ing freight to this country will go back empty. It is
contrary la,,th to reason and rxperence to believe such
assertions, however confidently made, and the B tard of
Trade returns to Juue 5, out this morning, will afford
the best answer.
The West India letters, delivered late yesterday
afternoon, notice still extreme dulln( ss in most branches
of commerce, but upon the subject of the w eather they
are more cheerful, rain having fallen rather abundantly
at Antigua, Barbadoes, and other places.
A statement of the debt of Ireland made up by order
of Parliament contains some interesting items. At the
period of the union in 1801 the total was 26,841,2191.,
and up to 1816 there bad been an increase of 80 538,9391.
making in 1817 a total of Irish unredeemed
debt amounting to 134,602,7691., though stock was
cancelled whereby the sum etas diminished to
t 30.561,0371. Since 1817, no separate account has been
kept. but the unredeemed debt funded in Ireland on the
sth January last was 41,499,2961., being a large appa-
rent increase, since 1817, caused by the voluntary acts of
the stockholders in transferring their stock from Eng-
land, and is totally distinct from additions created by
loans raised for the public service. The loans of
8,000,000/. and 2,000,0001. raised in 1847 and 1848,
although virtually for the service of Ireland, du
not appear in the public accounts under that head. The
gross revenue of Ireland in 1817 was 4,384,8161., and
subsequently decreased, being as low as 3,199,128/. in
1123. In 1848 it amounted to 4,327 565/. The expen-
diture of Ireland was in 1817, 11,317,6614, leaving the
amuunt of 6,932,845/. to be provided by the British Ex-
chequer, which in 1847 had to furnish 9,380,6281., to
make up the respective deficiency in the revenue of Ire-
land, compared with its expenditure. This iis certainly
not a wholesome state of things, and shows how much
cheaper it might be to govern Ireland well.
