MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
In the Liverpool Cotton blanket yesterday the sales
were 5,000 bales, at firm rates. There were 4,000 bales
of American sold at 4id. to 6d. per lb. Railway shares
were dull, and prices rather tended downwards.
In the advices received yesterday from Buenos Ayres
rather indignant allusion is made to the speech of Lord
Palmerston, in which the conduct of the defaulting
states was severely stigmatised ; and it is not. a little
amusing to hear the allegations brought against England,
and the assertion that the non-payment of the interest
on Buenos Ayres stock was the result of our belligerent
operations, whereas it is notorious that no dividend
was paid for years before our differences with the Ar-
gentine Republic commenced. It is true that Rosas
' did within the last few years think proper to scrape
together one or two instalments, but the exception does
but prove the rule. On the other hand, we can scarcely
bring ourselves to think that such advice as that given
last night by Lord George Bentinck, via., to seiz,
upon Cuba in indemnification of the claims of the
Spanish bondholders, is at all judicious or calculated to
advance the end proposed.
The accounts yesterday afternoon received from
Liverpool advise two additional failures of some im-
portance; but Messrs. Jevon, Sons, and Co., in the iron
trade, have excellent assets to cover their liabilities of
about 100,0001. Messrs. J. and G. Campbell and Co.,
in the West India trade, have debts of about 80,000/.
The Money Market continues very easy, and 130,000 L
in gold was received yesterday overland from Russia.
The produce markets will receive a portion of the ad-
vantage, and the following statement concerning sugar
is encouraging. It takes in the past month, however,
and does not represent the more recent improvement.
Messrs. Wilkinson and Jewesbury state:—
" SITGAIL—The market opened at the beginning of
the past month with a steady demand for all descrip.
tions, and much briskness has been experienced during
the last fortnight, and an advance of from Is. to Is. 6d.
has been established. Several parcels have changed
hands by private contract, and, upon the whole, pros•
pects are more favourable. Above 38,000 bags of
Bengal and Madras have been disposed of by public
sale ; finej white Benares realising 475. to 485., good
455. to 465. 6d., and. ordinary descriptions, 30s. to 415.;
Madras lew to good 28s. to 361. 6d, and flue 441. 6d. to
80s. 6d., the latter being for a parcel of fine, paying the
high duty. 14,000 bags Mauritius have met with good
sale, and 3,000 bags were reported sold by private con-
tract, at the early part of the mouth ; fine has fetched
40s. to 435., and middling good 365. 6d. to 30s. 6d., low
and middling 295. to 345. In Foreign Esst India 5,300
bags, &c., have been brought forward, and several sales
hare been effected by private contrittr—prices have
ranged from 31s. to 435."
The Funds have been rather unsteady' ain, and until
the inteations of the Chancellor of the
,chequer are
known with respect to a funding, there 'II probably
be no confidence in prices. It is satisfac y therefore
that the financial statement is promise so early.
Consols have been 884 i for transfer, and are now
884 j. Time bargains have been made at 884 to 89.
Exchequer-bills have realised 335. to, 385. premium,
being lower again. Bank Stock istmfirm at 200, and
India Stock at 243. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per
Cents. have been 891 to 904.
The chief business doing in the Foreign Market is
still in Mexican Stock, which realises 16i to 19. Gre-
nada Bonds have been at 201, and Equador at 3i 4.
Brazil Stock is worth 851. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per
Cents. have been at 54 to 544.
Railway Shares are generally rather flatter.
