MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, MONDAY EVENING.
The Tallow trade is at present in a depressed state,
owing to the apprehended influx of extensive supplies
from Buenos Ayres. The fact of Roses not having
accepted the terms offered him by the French Admi-
ral, up to within a day or two of the actual conclusion
of the treaty, seems to indicate that he was no very
willing party to it.,
The public securities were dull to-day, but this was
not the result or the consequence of any depression in
prices. Consols for immediate transfer only alternated
from 90 to 90-1-, and for the Account were all day at
90-41. Exchequer Bills were at 10s. prem., and India
at Bs. discount ; but these quotations were all but no.
minal. Bank Stock was to 1 per cent, higher again
to-day, being, firm at 169. The Reduced Three-and-a-
Half per Cents. realized 9Si to 99 ; the Three per
Cents., 90'4 to 90i- ; the Old Three-and-a-Half per
Cents., 98t5- ; and the New Three-and-a- Half per
Cents., 98* to -a.

Foreign Stocks partook of the general dullness, but,
like our own funds, they supported their value. Spanish
Bonds went rather higher—viz., 24a to 4. Portuguese
Three per Cents. were dull at 201, and the Five per
Cents. were not dealt in. Mr. Richard Thornton has
received an answer from the Lisbon Government, ac-
cepting, of course, his offer to receive the reduced di-
vidend, and disclaiming any intention to place the In-
demnity Bondholders on a worse footing than they are
at present, but, on the contrary, a desire to raise the
value of the security they hold, and make it more mar-
ketable. Colombian Stock was at 23a- to Buenos
Ayres at 191 to 20, and Peruvian at 15 to 16. French
Five per Cents. were 1111.75 e., and Dutch Tvvo-and-
a-llalf per Cents. 501 to
In Shares a moderate degree of animation prevailed.
Great Western were 18 to 18/, the New 13- to 14,
and the Fifths 61 premium. Brighton were 6 to 6/,
Blackwall 31 to 4, and Manchester and Birmingham
1-1.1 discount. Australasia Bank Shares were 141, and
National Provincial Bank of England a premium.

(From the Boston Daily Mail, Jan. 2.)
A letter from Buenos Ayres and Monte Video states
that Lavalle by the last accounts was on his way back to
Buenos Ayres, and that he had arrived at St. Nicholas,
a small town, distant about 40 leagues from the city, and
that he had put all,the inhabitants to the sword for having
offered resistance. Great excitement prevails at Monte
Video, and many lives of the Unitarians have been sacri-
ficed by the Marsorca Club, which has been committing
the most abominable outrages for some time past. They
number about 2,000, and are beyond the control of the
Government. The persons and property of the French
residents have been respected throughout.
We have received Montreal papers to the 25th Decem-

treal and proceed to Toronto, there to proclaim the union
of the province, and that after this has been done his
Excellency will pay Kingston a long visit respecting
the same ceremonial as at Toronto ; and, after the procla-
mation, Sir George Arthur will return to England, and
Major-General Sir Charles Clitherow will assume the
duties of Deputy- G uvernor.
We have received the Journal of Antwerp of Saturday,

FLOODS AT GREENWICH, LEWISHAM, &C.
—The effect of the rapid thaw, accompanied with a vio-
lent gale of wind, on Saturday night, has been productive
of serious losses to numerous persons, particularly to
market-gardeners. in the vicinities of Greenwich, Dept-
ford, Lee, and Lewisham. There is not a vestige of
snow visible on Shooter's.hill, Blackheath, nor on any high
land in this neighbourhood, but the valleys have presented
nearly one uniform sheet of water during yesterday.
SAM SCOTT, THE AMERICAN DIVER.—The
mortal remains of this man were on;Sunday interred in the
burial ground of the parish church of St. Paul, Deptford.
At a quarter before three o'clock the funeral proceeded
from his late residence in High•street, Deptford, followed
by two female and two male mourners, and about fifty in-
different persons. A body of police frcm the R division
attended to preserve order, but their services were not re-
quired in consequence of the privacy observed by the
friends of the deceased.

Two DEATHS FROM EXPOSURE TO THE
SNOW-STORNI. Last Saturday afternoon a man named
James Haworth, 43 years of age, and a woman named
Alice Holden, 51 years of age, perished front exposure to
th© snow-storm which occurred on that day. Haworth
had been to Blackburn for work, and was carrying a warp
and weft home with him on his back, when it is supposed
he lost the footpath. On Sunday, as he had not arrived
at home, a search was made for him, and he was found
quite dead, partially buried in a snow drift about 200 yards
from his own door, and about 30 yards out of his road.
The woman Holden was found nearly covered with snow
about a quarter of a mile from home. Inquests were holden
on the bodies, and in both cases verdicts were returned to
the effect that death bad resulted from exposure to the
inclemency of the weather.—Blackburn Standard.
The poor freemen and electors of Boston have
received seasonable presents of beef and bread from their
worthy representative, Alderman Sir James Duke, to the
amount of 701. And upwards,Stamford Mercury.
