MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO TITRE.
There are accounts a few days later from South Australia
and Port Philip, viz, to February 11th and 26th respectively,
but they communicate nothing of interest.
The majority against the second reading of the Irish
Coercion Bill has been the general theme of conversation to-
day, and Sir Robert Peel', resignation is looked upon as a
fait accompli.
The following is an interesting statement relative to the
trade of Brazil, brought to hand by the Crane packet:—
Monthly return of Exports and Imports, Custom-house
Revenue, &c., at Rio de Janeiro, for April last, compared
with that of the corresponding mouth last year.
Exports in 1846. 1845.
Coffee, bags 72,022 88,584
Sugar, chests
Hides
Custom-house receipts:— Milreis.
From imports 643,365 667,737
From exports

Total
The trifling falling off is accounted for by the supply of
coffee having been rather short, and not equal to the de-
mand, consequently prices have ruled high, and as the duty
is payable ad valorem on a tariff, ascertained weekly, the
revenue has not suffered proportionably. At the latter end
of the month the arrivals of cottbe from the interior
were more considerable. The Exchange continued steady at
26%, and the Six per Cent. Funds at 761,.
The imports had been very considerable, without a corre-
sponding demand for consumption. Sales were, therefore,
difficult to effect. There are no returns published of the
value of the articles imported, but some correct idea may be
formed thereof by the fellowing statement, viz. :
Ships arrived in April, 1844 and 1845.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.
The present week's arrivals of English Wheat having been on a
very moderate scale, the stands here were scantily filled with sam-
ples. Still, however, as it is expected the new duties on foreign
Corn will be receivable at the Custom-house to-morrow, the dealers
were very cautious in their operations, indeed the trade was in a
most uncertain state, yet we can notice no alteration in the quota-
tions. The imports of foreign Wheat have been good, and the article,
free of duty, commanded very little attention at late rates. The late
fine showers having produced a very beneficial effect upon all spring
Corn, the sales progressed heavily, and in some instances the quota-
tions had a downward tendency. Superfine Malt being scarce com-
manded full prices, but all other kinds were neglected.

Our market was on the whole tolerably well, but not to say heavily,
supplied with beasts, the general quality of which was by no means
first rate. The attendance of buyers being more numerous than for
Some time past, the Beef trade ruled firm, at fully Monday's quota-
tions. We had on cifer 60 Oxen and Cows, together with 350 Sheep,
from Holland ; 12 Oxen, from Trnssia ; and 40 Scots from Scotland.
Sheep, the supply of which was seasonably extensive, moved off
steadily, at late rates. The number .of Lambs being large, the de-
mand for that description of stock was somewhat inactive, and prices
were with difficulty supported. Calves and Pigs ruled very dull,
and the currencies had a downward tendency. Milch Cows were
selling at from 161 to 181 18s each ; Suckling Calves, 18s to 28s ; and
quarter old Store Pigs, 16s to 19s each. Beasts, 647; Cows, 139 ;
