MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was firm
at furl prices. Sales 9,000 bales, 1,000 of which were
taken for export, and 3,000 on speculation.—Railway
Shares were dull, and at lower prices.
The accounts respecting the growing crops are so
favourable that the transactions in grain at Mark-lane
are necessarily restricted. The arrivals are moderate,
and prices are firm.
It appears by the letters per Indian overland mail
that a list of the shareholders in the Union Bank of
Calcutta had been completed, and that 160 names were
protected by the scheme of liquidation. On the other
hand, however, there were many defaulters among those
who could afford to pay, and these were likely to be
called upon for their quota towards the liabilities.
The Honourable East India Company appear to have
come to a very wise determination, viz., that their ser-
vants in the East shall not be connected with any joint-
stock company; and accordingly a term of one year is
allowed that they may arrange to be quit of any stake
that they have. Possibly had this rule been sooner in
existence we should not have heard so much of Sir
Thomas Turton's defalcations. At least the amount
might not have been nearly so large.
The letters and papers from Ceylon notice the signing
by the merchants and planters of a memorial against the
fraudulent use of chicory. This is to be transmitted
to the home Government. The weather was not alto-
gether seasonable, and rain was wanted in some parts.
The following is a statement of the export market at
Colombo:
" Our shipping operations are drawing fast to a close,
owing both to the adverse nature of the weather and to
the paucity of the stocks of produce on hand. The wea-
ther, however, might have been worse, and one or two
sunny breaks have occasionally enabled shippers to keep
moving. There is no doubt that the monsoon has fairly
set in, yet we have scarcely bad any violent weather
such as usually ushers in the south-west winds. There
still remains six ships in our roadstead loading for Lon-
don; of these one will sail in a day or two, and another,
the Morning Star, leaves for Galle, where she will fill up.
Owing to the anxiety of some captains to get away be-
fore any heavy weather comes upon them, a decline in
freights of ss. had been submitted to, and quotations
have been accordingly 31. 15s. to 41. for Coffee Oil, but
they are now again quoted at 4/."
The cinnamon cuttings were expected to be late.
We gave yesterday an outline of the American news,
and the letters were delivered in the afternoon. The
Quebec Herald states that the Commerce steamer, whioh
was chartered for Halifax, will not go there in conse-
quence of her proprietors being unable to effect insurance
upon the voyage. It appears that there is no provincial
office in a position to effect insurance on sea risks, and
that the agent of some American insurance at Quebec
asked so high a premium as to render it impossible to
pay it, without sacrificing the entire profit on the voyage.
The report of the Amsterdam market states that good
purchases for investment have been made, and that the
prices were very firm. The Dutch Two-and-a-Half per
Cents. have been 51 15-16. Mexican bonds had been
more in request. At Frankfort on the 21st inst. Ails.
trian Stock was quoted 76. The Vienna price on the
20 was 934.
From Flanders the accounts of the growing crops are
most cheering, and the potato crops will be exceedingly
prolific.
Many shareholders may be encouraged, by a decision
in the Northampton County Court, to attempt the re-
covery of deposits paid upon abortive schemes. A
party who had paid money for scrip in the Chartist
Land Company, recovered from the promoter on the
ground that the deposit was paid at a time when the
company was provisionally registered, and had not ob-
tained complete registration within a year, nor was the
provisional registration renewed from year to year.
When a company is only provisionally registered,
10s. per 1001. is all that can be legally received as a
deposit.
The Funds are flatter to-day in consequence of the
decline on the Paris Bourse, and the statement that the
Sardinian Government declines signing the conditions of
peace with Austria. From Hungary, to the deep regret of
City people, the intelligence is unfavourable to the cause of
dberty. Consols have been 921 to 93 for Transfer, and
921 to 93 for Account. The .New Three-and-a-Quarter
per Cents. are 931 a. Bank Stock is worth 198 to 200.
Exchequer- bills have been 475. to 50s. premium.
The Foreign Stuck market is dull. Spanish Five per
Cents. have been 18} 1; Portuguese Four per Cents.
30k; and Brazilian 84. Peruvian Active Bonds have
been 51a; Mexican Stock is 261 to 27. Nothing fur-
ther has transpired concerning the firm selected for the
agency. Russian Bonds have declined to 105/ and 105;
Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are 51/ to /.
The Railway Share Market is dull, and although
prices have changed but little, the tendency is rather to
decline.
