MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 7,000
bales, including 1,200 for export, and 800 on speculation.
The rest was American, and sold at 4d. to 5%d. per lb. The
market was very firm.—Shares were firmer. There trill not
be any open business for the next three days, in consequence
of the visit of Prince Albert to this important port.
The division of last night upon the Sugar Duties Bill hag
been the subject of conversation, and, we may add, delight,
in almost all commercial and banking circles this -morning.
The great question at stake is held to be settled, as it is not
expected that in the face of a majority ofl3o in favour of the
Premier's proposition, any alterations will be made of im-
portance, either in Committee or in the higher branch of the
Legislature. The benefits which must accrue to mercantile
pursuits by the settlement of the corn and the sugar duties
are scarcely to be calculated upon. The current of trade
will now flow with an evenness which the oldest merchant
in London scarcely presurned_to dream of at the close of the
year 1845. It is true that a few of the leading firms of the
City s:i.l hold that the principle of protection •ought not ter
be broken through, and give way to what is called new-
fangled commercial policy. But what better test can we
have of the feelings of the manufacturing classes of their
opinion upon the settlement of the sugar duties,' than the
acknowledged fact that their orders fur goods have fallen offs
owing, no doubt, to some latent apprehension Oat the ma-
jority in the House of Commons would have been much less
than it is, and have led to a bold effort on the part of
the L rds to wrangle the Bill? This is now Om'
tittered entirely out of the question. The publie •
sales advertised l'or this day of foreign and colonial produce
are light, but the forthcoming sales of foreign sugars, which
we learn will be soaiewhat extensive, will best Show the in-
fluence upon the market by the decision of last night. We
are also advised that at lianiburgh, at Rotterdam, and et
Amsterdam, very considerable quantities of sugar will be
ahottly announced for sale, and by the results a fair calcula-
tion may be made of the diffefence which, under the new r
propoed system, will exist between the markets of-the Con-
tinent and iff Mincing-lane.
Late accounts have come to hand this morning from the
Cale cf Good Hope. The dates received at the Jerusalem
Coffee-house are to the 29th of May. The Kaffirs were
gradually retreating into their Gwn a untry, not desiring t°
meet the force of Colonel Somerset, which was in rapid march
against them.
We have been favoured with the circular of Messrs. Wil-
kinsoi and Jewesbury, containing much information relative
to the results of the indigo sales just concluded. The prink
cipal purchasers were foreigners; but there was also a very
good attendance of buyers from our own manufacturing
districts. The average of prices realised is higher from 6d.
to 91 per lb. on liengals, Madras and Kurpahs 3d. per lb.,
and 2d. per lb. on other samples. For Bengal fine blue, 65..t0
6s. 7d. per lb. was readily paid.
Consuls for the Account have improved to 96% this
morning ; but at the present moment the price is scarcely
so high. The money value is but 95%. Exchequer.bills
are at 9s. to 12s. premium, Bank Stock at .209, and India
Stock at 262.
Not much business was transacted in the Foreign Bond
Market to-day. The Grenada Deferred were sold at 44the ;
the Portuguese Three per Cents. Converted at 46%; '
Four per Cents. were heavy at 441/2 ; Spanish Actives at 26;
the Three per Cents. at 361 A%; Dutch Two-and-a. Half per
Cents. at 593% ; and the Four per Cents. at 9434.
The Railway Share Market is rather more firm.
