MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool, yesterday, was still
declining. Sales 3,500 bales, of which 3,000 bales were
American, at Cid. to 7 d, per lb. Business was dull,
and American sorts were id. per lb. lower. Railway
Shares were again lower.
The quieter aspect of affairs in the City serves to in-
spire confidence, but it may be discreet for all parties to
keep themselves well armed against contingencies such
as must be expected after the late shocks to mercantile
credit. The effect of these stoppages cannot at once be
felt in its full force. Caution is all, perhaps, that need
to be inculcated, as we have a hope that the worst may
be over. Perhaps, upon the whole, the mercantile
failures of the last week or two will prove far less
serious than would stoppages to anything like the same
extent among the wholesale firms or manufacturers,
because, in such cases, the losses are direct and imme-
diate upon home connexions.
Papers of March 31 have come to hand from South
South Australia, but we have had these dates already.
The English Stock-market opened firmly this morn-
ing, and a few purchases sent up Consols to 86 and 86k
for transfer, and to 86k for time. Since, however,
there has again been a reaction to 85i for Money, and
to 851 to 86k for October. East India Stock is worth
238 to 241. Exchequer-bills show indications of rather
more demand for money, being 6e. to 9s. premium.
East India Bonds have been 3s. discount.
In the Foreign house there has been a slight improve-
ment compared with yesterday. Spanish Five per Cents.
have been 20, and the Three per Cents. 29 to k. Por-
tuguese Four per Cents. have been quoted 24 to I.
Brazil Stock is 82i to 83i. Mexican Bonds have been
at 19 to*. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have been
53i to 54.
For Railway Shares the demand has been limited, but
the quotations are supported generally.

" NOTICE TO MARINERS.
" NEW HARBOUR AT LOWESTOFT.
" RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR VESSELS ENTERING.
" 1. All vessels bound into the new harbour will hoist
an ensign at the peak, and if requiring the services of
the steam tug, a flag or burgee at the mast head. Ves-
sels on shore, upon the sands, or in difficulties, requiring
the assistance of the tag will hoist a flag at the mast head.
" At night the signal for the tug will be two lights
where best seen, a single light being the signal for a
pilot.

" 2. To facilitate the entrance into the harbour by
night, two red lights are shown, one on each pier head,
and kept burning from sunset to sunrise. At the en-
trance of the inner harbour two green lights are shown,
which brought in a line vertical, leads into the inner
channel, but vessels must not approach the bridge until
the lower light is changed to red, which is the signal
that the bridge is open. Sailing out at night, one green
light will be shown, which will be changed to red when
the bridge is open.
"3. A red Hag will be hoisted on the look-out station
of the inner harbour when the gates are open, and kept
flying during the time vessels can enter into the inner
harbour; vessels may enter the outer harbour at all
times of tide, but they are not to attempt to enter the
inner harbour unless the red flag is hoisted by day, and
the two green lights shown by night.
" Previous to closing the gates a black ball will be
hoisted.
" 4. Vessels are not to anchor in the fairway, but
between the buoys in the outer harbour and the piers,
and moor by running out a stern hawser to the places
appointed for that purpose.
" 5. Musters of vessels requiring to beach for the pur-
pose of examining or cleaning, are to apply to the Har-
bour-master for permission.
