MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS,
(From The Sun of Saturday Evening.) •
The Cotten market at Liverpool yesterday was firm, but
without animation. Sales 5 000 bales, at an advance of
nearly lAd. per lb. on the quotations of this day week.
Shares were dull.
•n arrival from Sydney furnishes advice of Oct. 24 ;
these are of a most satisfactory character. The revenue,
which for the last two or three years has been
steadily on the decline, and which only began
to rally a few months back, is now improving, and exhibits a
material increase, viz., 2614 per cent. in the total inconr! for
the third quarter of the year 1545. The territorial revenue
was particularly flourishing, and agricultural or pastoral la-
bourers were in great demand. With mechanics the colony
was well supplied.
