THE SUPPLY OF SUGAR.

The West India planters seem to have asser-
tions ready for every use. Scarcely a year has
elapsed since they were dinning the public with
complaints of the idleness of the labourers, of
the deficiency of the crop of sugar, and of the
ruin of their estates. They contemplated then
making another attack on the purse of John
Bull, on the ground that the compensation
awarded them was wholly insufficient. As soon,
however, as the question of reducing the dis-
criminating duties was raised, the West Indians
found out that their estates were amazingly pro-
ductive, and that they could, with the help of
their brethren of the East, whom they had a few
months before treated as the vilest instruments,
supply plenty of sugar for the utmost possible
consumption of the people. Now we have been
favoured with the following extract of a letter
from Tobago, which makes us suppose that the
assertion of abundant crops was made to suit
the purpose of the moment:—

I must give you a few words of the commercial pros-
pects of our islands. The fact is—relying upon a vast
influx of money into the market after the Emancipation,
the merchants have imported so enormously, that all the
West India markets are thoroughly gorged, and recourse
is obliged to be had to the smaller islands to dispose of
the surplus goods of the larger. Tobago, St. Lucia, and
Dominica, have formed the principal outlets ; on the
other islands, goods are being sacrificed at cost, and at
Barbadoes and Jamaica considerably below it. The
crops will not realise early hopes formed of them.
" Long drought," and " unseasonable showers " will
greatly curtail their prosperity, and mortgagers and
merchants, in debt, will rue this year deeply.
I have been disposing of much, merchandise (British
manufactures) here, greatly to the annoyance and anger
of my narrow-minded, grasping fellow merchants, who
have hitherto been ruling with most infamous prices,
which my arrival has tended in a great measure to dimi-
nish. The poor inhabitants gaped with wonder when they
saw me sell at a price which their merchants quadrupled
in disposing of their articles! The inhabitants of this
island are taxed to their very bones—poor women who
live by huckstering have to pay a tax of 51. for their
license to sell.

It may be inferred, too, from the last para-
graph, that the planters have the same kind of
regard for the labourers as our landlords have
for white labourers, from which it follows that the
resistance given to the reduction of the Sugar
Duties, on the ground that it would injure the
negro labourers, was a mere pretext. It would
appear, too, that the local authorities have a
much better means of promoting the welfare of
the poorer classes, by abolishing taxes and re-
strictions, than by taxing the people of England
in the price of sugar to enrich planters and
mortgages.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NE WS.
CITY, WEDNESDAY EVENING.
Although the far-famed attractions of the Derby took the
majority of the speculators from the Stock Exchange, there was
a very good business done in the steadier securities to-day,
such as the Three per Cent. Reduced, and the Three-and-a-
Halt per Cent. Annuities, each of which supported the im-
proved rates of yesterday, the former being at 88/ the New
Three-and-a-Half at 983/4 to 99, and the Reduced Three-
and-a- Half at 97} to 3/4. Exchequer Bills bore a premium of
Bs. to 10s. again, and East India Bonds were at par to 2s.
premium. Consols for present transfer brought 90i to 89h,
and for the opening they were done at 90% to h.
The bargains in the Foreign market did not exceed, nu-
merically speaking, one dozen, altogether, and the quotations
were barely supported. Spanish Active Bonds realised 23h to
23h, Colombian Stock receded from 22h to 22, Belgian from
100% to 100, and Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. from
52h to 52i. French Five per, Cent. Rentes, however, ad
vaneed to 114 f. 50c.

The dealings in Railway Shares were as circumscribed as
they have been for some days past, but there was a partial
rally upon the heavy quotations of yesterday. Great Western
were 27 ; the New, 121 ; and the South Western, 16i prem.
Bristol and Exter were 25, Brighton 4i, Croydon Northern
and Eastern 21, North Midland 32, and South Eastern 18 dis-
count. National Bank of Ireland shares were 1 discount.
The attention of every one in the City is now attracted to
the probable course of the proceedings in Parliament, when Sir
Robert Peel brings on his resolution► respecting want of con-
fidence. In the meantime, the preparations for securing the
election of Lord John Russell as the representative of the city
of London have been commenced in earnest, and as it is
thought by many that, in the event of a dissolution, no other
Liberal would command such extended support, and compete
so successfully against Conservative influence, it is hoped his
Lordship will stand.

(From 77te Sun of Last Night.)
LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MAY 25.—The demand
for Cotton to-day has been extremely limited ; the descrip-
tions purchased by the trade consisted chiefly of American,
about 1,000 bales, without any material change in prices.
LIVERPOOL SHARE-MARKET, MAY 25.—The transactions
to-day comprise Chester and Crewe, 50; Great Western, 93 ;
London and Brighton, Third Shares, 53k ; Borowgh Bank 14.

Yesterday A as settling day in the British Market, and to-
day is pay day, which will also go off w(.11, as the differences to
pay are not to any great extent, and there is no doubt that all
drafts will be honoured.

Great excitement begins to prevail in the City on the impor-
tant event which is to take place tomorrow night in the
House of Commons, on Sir H. Peel's notice, that the Ministers
do not possess the confidence of the House of Commons.

We have no arrivals this morning, with the exception of
the French mail, and ordinary express from Paris, not even a
single ship letter; such an event has not happened for a month
past.
The Foreign Exchanges yesterday afternoon were much the
same as last post day, with the exception of Hamburgh, which
was rather better.

ERRATUM.—We stated yesterday in our City article at half_
past one, that it turned out to be a Bear account, which was
the reverse; in the afternoon it was a strong Bull account.

Consols opened this morning at 897/8 90 for Money, and for
the 16th July 90/ a, same as they left off. Exchequer Bills,

Scarce anything doing in the British funds to the present
time, and the house is thin of its members. It also being a
holiday with the Hebrews few of them are in attendance; con-
sequently there is a pause in all operations in both the markets
to the present hour.
Money appears to be rather more easy. Epsom Races are the
order of the day, and nothing else is thought of.

ing, 894 90 for Money, and 904 4 for the Account. Exche-

" No MONOPOLIES" should now be the rally-
ing cry ; and, under that cry, we hope the Liberal con-
stituencies of England will be prepared to put forth all
their strength in the approaching contest. The county,
at p 1 sent, returns a mere measuring cast majority of
Reformers. If, in the next Parliament, as in this, there
be returned a dozen Tory opponents of commercial re-
form, it is hopeless to expect that that great object will
be accomplished. In fact, the policy, either of the
Whig Government, or that which is to succeed it, will
necessarily be to a great extent determined by the issue
of the Lancashire elections.---Manchest& Guardian.

DUTCH AND GERMAN PAPERS.
TUE HAGUE, MAY 24.—The French frigate Belle
Poule, commanded by his Royal Highness Prince Join-
vile, accompanied by the Calfard brig, arrived in the
Helder on the 21st of this month, On his arrival his
Royal Highness was saluted by the men-of-war in the
roads—the Belle Poule, as usual, returned the salute.
His Excellency Baron de Bois Le Comte, the French
Minister at our Court, and the Consul-General of France
at Amsterdam, received the Prince on his landing.
We find in the Handelsblad that his Royal Highness,
accompanied by the Governor of North Holland, arrived
yesterday morning early at Haerlem, and, having visited
the gallery of pictures in the Pavilion, set out at eight
o'clock for Amsterdam, where he arrived an hour 'after-
wards. A letter from Maestricht of the 19th of this
month, says, "The Members of the Commission for
determining the frontiers between Holland and Belgium
have been again assembled here for some days past,
to continue and conclude their operations. We are as-
sured that the boundary line between Luxemburg and
Limburg is entirely settled, and that there remains to
determine that between Flanders and Zealand, on which
point the negotiations appear to be very far advanced.
On the 22d of this month the King gave an audience to
Monsignor Cappacini, Ambassador Extraordinary from
the See of Rome, who had the honour of delivering his
credentials.

In the sitting of the second Chamber of the States
General, on Saturday, the 22d, a Royal message was re-
ceived, accompanying the new draft of the project of
law, relative to expropriation for the public benefit.
ST. PETERSBURGH, May 13.—The Moscow Gazette
gives an account of an affecting scene which took place
on the 28th of last month. The Governor, accompanied
by the clergy, and many other persons, proceeded at noon
to the common apartment of the persons confined for
debt, who were there assembled, to the number of 45,
and announced to them that they were all free, his
Majesty the Emperor having thought fit to distinguish
the happy day of his son's marriage, by discharging all
their debts, which amounted to 30,000 silver roubles.
All of them, deeply affected,by this favour, went imme-
diately to the chapel of the prison to implore the bless-
ings of Heaven on the• members of the Imperial family,
and immediately afterwards. returned to celebrate this
happy day at their own homes."
• PETERSBURGH, MAY 14.—Prince Butera, the Sicilian
Ambassador, Baron Schimmelpewninck, the Netherlands
Ambassador, and the Marquis of Clanricarde, the British
Ambassador, who are going to leave their posts for some
time, have had their•final audiences of the Emperor and
the other members of the Imperial family. On the 13th
of May fifty-one ships had arrived at Cronstadt. We
learn from Pernan that the navigation was opened there
on the Ist of May by the arrival of seven English ships
in ballast. On the sth of May the number of arrivals
was fifteen.

ST. PETERSBURGH, MAY 15.—Our Journals publish
the following Imperial Ukase:—" Already on the intelli-
gence of the Chinese Government having forbidden the
importation of opium into China, we, in order to confirm
the long existing good understanding between Russia and
the Chinese empire, and for the interests of the inter-
course on the frontiers, and the trade of both countries,
ordered Instructions to be given to the respective autho-
rities to exercise the strictest vigilance that no opium
should be sent across the frontier to China, but as that
prohibition has not yet been published, and it is our
wish that it may be duly observed in the whole empire,
we order the directing senate to take the necessary mea-
sures for the execution of our will."

VIENNA, MAY 15.—The Constantinople mail of the
28th is not yet arrived. The insurrection at Rumelia
seems again to have extended to the high roads between
Adrianople and Nissa. The accounts from Servia throw
but little light on the situation of the provinces, because
the centre of the operations has been removed, by the
victory gained by the Turks at Alexinizza, to a consi-
derable distance from the Servian frontier; and Mustapha
Paella of Nissa endeavours, with unmitigated rigour, to
prevent all communication between the Christians and
other countries, while the Pachas of the adjoining pro-
vinces have adopted similar measures. Should the Turk-
ish mail, as is generally believed, have taken the road
through Bucharest, this will prove that the insurrection
has extended to the east part of Bulgaria; as the Walla-
chian mail, which arrived yesterday, has brought no
news from Constantinople. We are anxiously expecting,
from day to day, accounts which will put an end to this
painful uncertainty.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
EPSOM RACES.—WEDNEsDAY.

Adopting the fa-hion, we must place the immense assemblage
witnessed yesterday afternoon on Epsom Downs to the credit
of that great sporting event yclept " The Derby," although,
were it worth while to travel out of the beaten track and look
a little into motives, we might, perchance, discover, that with
the " trifling" proportion of nine out of ten, the dominant feel-
ing was simply a desire to see and be seen. An abstract love
of the sport might have been gratified at an infinitely smaller
expenditure of labour and money at the Hippodrome, but the
excuse was wanting ; cheap pleasures are ever held so, and
John Bull would rather pay a guinea to see a field of donkies
run for " The Derby," than half-a-crown for the quiet enjoy-
ment of first-rate sport at his own door. To those who
were really attracted by a race which for so many
years has given importance to the day, it must have
proved less exciting than of old, albeit the field was, numeri-
cally, the best ever known ; public running, however, had
thrown out nothing very extraordinary, nothing making any
approach to a Priam, a Plenipo, or a Bay Middleton—in fine,
as far as the ascertained merits of the performers contributed
to its character, it was looked upon only as an average Derby.
The speculation, too, on it had been of an anomalous character,
the fluctuations unprecedented in frequency and extent, and
immense sums had been dropt on horses without the negative
gratification of a start ; the betters round far exceeded the
backers of horses, very few books were completed, and some
were squared on the day at an expense which must have made
their authors wince. Matters were not mended by the extra-
ordinary pertinacity with which some of the favourites were
betted against, or by rumours, even up to the day of starting,
that some of the favourites were to be made safe—rumours,
by the way, that led to the adoption of precautions which, if
trickery was contemplated, must have had the effect of defeat-
ing it. Such as it was, heweve-, " The Derby" served
the purpose, by inducing a re-union of all classes
of her Majesty's subjects, and filling the pockets
of the good people in the town of Epsom, and
of their " cotlaterals " in the Downs ; it, more-
over, gave such a fillip to trade, that the inn-
keepers, postmasters, milliners, and dress-makers have it
in contemplation to place at the disposal of the Stewards for
next year's races an " Anti-Hippodrome Plate"—the South
Western and Croydon Railway, no doubt, go with the stream,
and contribute their quota to the the amusement of their pa-
trons. We might here enlarge upon the various topics per-
tinent to the day, but as they have been written threadbare we
shall content ourselves with stating, briefly, that the throng
on the road was greater than has been witnessed for
many years, the heat and dust intolerable (notwithstanding
the gross imposition of a double toll at the Epsom trusts on
the plea of a water-rate, and the consumption of stimulating
fluids extensive enough to ensure a sensible addition to the
next quarter's revenue. The stoppages were unceasing, and
the anxiety of the toll-keepers to prevent any thougtless
person from paying twice so excessive that all the inconve-
niences which we had anticipated would have been ameliorated
by the railway were felt in their full extent; the good conduct
of the police alone prevented serious accidents ' • to prevent
quarrelling and confusion was beyond their reach. The race
was fixed for half-past two, long before which every part of the
Downs available to carriages was appropriated. The Stands
were as full as the ingenuity of their proprietors could stuff
them ; and the scene, heightened as it was by a brilliant sun
and a cloudless sky, one of the most vivid ever beheld. With
so vast an assemblage, the Stewards had a hard task to perform;
but aided by the A police, under Inspectors Hughes and
Pearce, it was performed quietly and with entire success.
Our time was so much engrossed by the racing, that we
were unable to obtain a complete list of the fashionables • the
following, therefore, must be taken only as a small sample :
Dukes of Rutland, Beaufort, and Bedford; Marquises—Exeter,
Westminster, Normanby, Titchfield ; Earls— Chesterfield, Ux-
bridge, Jersey, Verulam, Errol, Scarborough, Oxford ; Earl
and Countess of Albemarle; Lords—Maidstone, Paget,

H. Baring, G. S. Byng, H. Rous, Paulet, G. Fitzroy, R.

pain to be compelled to believe that this "itt',et
