ARRIVAL OF THE CALEDONIA.
(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
LIVERPOOL, M ONDAY, JUNE 18.
The North American Roy al Mail steam-ship
Caledonia has been telegraphel off Holyhead this
morning, at six o'clock. As she left Boston en the
6th, and Halifax on the 9th inst., her passage has
been a very rapid one. Her arrival in Liverpool is
looked for about one or two o'clock in the afternoon.

In addition to her Majesty's mails, the Caledonia
brings advices from the followin g places to the dates
annexed :—Boston, June 6; I a.lifax, June 9; New
York, June 6 ; Philadelphia, Be ltimore, and Wash-
ington, June 5 ; Charleston, Mo bile, and Montreal,
June 4; New Orleans and Cincinnati, June 3.
Letters will not be in to•avn till to-morrow
morning.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were
estimated at nearly 10,000 bale?, and comprised 7,000
to 8,000 American, at 34d. to 6,P., 200 Pernam and
Marini:; at 4 d. to 51d., 100 Egyptian at 51d. to 61d.,
400 Surat at 3d. to 4d., and 40 Sea Island at 9d. to is. 2d.
per lb. The market closed with m uch animation at ex-
treme prices.—Railway Shares were rather firmer.
The Corn Market is very firm, ;and has rather an up-
ward tendency.
The letters by the steamer Ceietloniu, which has ar•
rived from the United States, will .not be delivered until
to-morrow morning.
Accounts have been received from various parts
of the Continent by the ordinary mails, and we
can state without reservation, that upon the whole
they are by far the most satisfactory that have
come to hand for a long time past, in reference
to the condition of the money markets. At Hamburgh,
on the 15th instant, the rate of exchange on England
was 13 91, and the price of gold was 4394. The funds
were dealt in to a fair extent, but shares were rather
quiet. Money continued very eariy. There had been
an active demand for bills on St Petersburgh. Upon
the subject of the Danish war the re appears likewise to
be better promise of a settlement, but parties inte-
rested have very naturally so o ften expressed hopes
on this subject, when writin g to their corre-
spondents in London, that vr e cannot attach too
much importance to their statements. Indeed,
it is not unlikely that the fact of the settlement will be
first known in London, as there can be very little hope
of an arrangement except under the influence and exer-
tions of Lord Palmerston.
At Frankfort, on the 15th intlt., the Funds were in
more request, and Austrian Five per Cents. were
quoted 72. The Berlin Bourse on the 15th inst. was
very animated, and Shares and. Stocks were generally
higher. From Vienna, under date of the 13th instant,
we learn that the Austrian Stocks and Shares were
very firm, and Foreign Securities all higher. The
Amsterdam market was firm yesterday, and in Dutch
Two-and-a. Half per Cents. a goad business was done.
Foreign Stocks were all higher. The Paris prices come
better.
Nothing of a more definite nature has transpired con-
cerning the probable character of the quarterly revenue
accounts, but the impression in. City circles certainly is
that there will be a deficiency.
The market for Public Se curities is extremely
buoyant this morning, and the termination of the
Paris insurrection certainly gives a very decided tone,
although in other parts of filo Continent there are
many circumstances to excite doubt, and the revenue
account must have a slight influence ; still there
is a confident feeling, and at, present opinion seems
in favour of a yet greater improvement in stock
values, such is the abundance of unemployed capital.
Assuming, however, that tranquillity is restored on the
Continent, we must not expect such a quiet but steady
influx of bullion as has been in progress here for some
time past, for, on the contrary, the money having only
been transmitted here for security, will be withdrawn
again, and we trust beneficially and actively employed.
It would be no disadvantage to England to be re,
lieved of a portion of the id le surplus. Consols
have touched 91i and for the opening and with-
out the dividend, having but a few days since
been as low as 90i with the dividend. The
New Three-and-a Quarter per Cents. have realised
924 1, and the Three per Cents.. 911 a. Exchequer-
bills brought 425. to 455. premium, and India Bonds
70s. to 725. premium. East India Stock for account was
quoted 253.
The Foreign Stock Market has been lively, and with
values all in the ascendant owing to the buoyancy of the
Fnglish Funds, and the improvement abroad. Spanish
Three per Cents. have been at 34k, and Portuguese Four
per Cents. 274. Mexican ex coupons are 28i to
Russian Bonds are worth 1021 to 103, and French Three
per Cents. 53 50 to 54 .50, with the exchange at 25 45.
Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. have been at 80,
and Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 501 to I.
Railway Shares have been in moderate request, and
there is an improvement in North Western, Midland,
Brighton, and South-Eastern. Caledonian are much
the same. French shares are much in favour at im.
proved values.
