MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool, yesterday, was
steady, and prices were without alteration. A fair busi-
ness was done, 7,000 bales having changed hands, of
which 3,000 were American on speculation. The Share
Market was not active.

There has not been any arrivals, of late dates, an-
nounced here from the colonies this morning.
The following are some of the duties on Canada pro-
duce and . manufacture imposed by the United States
Tariff, passed the 29th of July, 1846:
" Spirits, 100 per cent ; furniture, meats, preserves,
ale, 40 per cent., according to valuation. Apparel,
bonnets, straw, &c., cabinet work, fur caps, clocks,
clothing, fur of any description, household furniture,
iron, leather manufactured, linen, mineral waters,
paper, plums, potatoes, soap, sugar of all kinds,
feathers, vegetables prepared, wearing apparel, wood
manufactured, fire-wood, wool, raw or manufactured, 30
per cent., according to the value. Bsrley, beef, boards,
candles, caps, fish, Hour of wheat, fruit, furs in skins or
dressed, hats, leather, linens, metals, oatmeal and oats,
oils, paving-stones and bricks, pork, potash, rye, or in
flour, skins of all kinds, slates, tallow, timber, vegetables,
wheat, 20 per cent., according to the value.
Pamphlets, periodicals, soap, grease, tallow, building-
stones, 10 per cent. according to the value. Bones, clay,
and tan's, 5 per cent.; bullion, coins, gold, silver, and
copper, free."

The Canada tariff, including the Imperial differential
duties, compared to the foregoing, is a mere trifle,
including the whole inland frontier, it probably
does little more than pay the expense of col-
lection, which certainly is a poor compensation
for the loss of time, expenses, and vexation,
which it occasions. It will be seen from the foregoing
remarks that the Government of the Republic of the
United States is rather loath to yield concessions to the
British colonies. There are, however, a few signs of a
more tolerant policy, and those interested must " bide
their time."

The following is a comparative statement of arrivals
and tonnage at Quebec:—
