26.—This island has, during the last few days.
been visited by heavy rollers, which have done considerable damage
to the shipping. In seven hours thirteen vessels were total wrecks,
eleven of which were slavers, and two lying as hulks (the Racket
and Cornelia). The harbour is covered with masts, yards, casks,
and every other description of wreck. The value of property de-
stroyed on shore is estimated at 10,0001. The whole of the passage-
boats are destroyed. The most extraordinary circumstance attend-
ing this destruction was, that several merchant vessels were at
anchor, clear of the rollers, with scarcely a move. There was not
a breath of wind ; the weather sultry, with occasional showers.

' MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were about
6,000 bales, including 1,000 American, on speculation, all
at very full prices. Shares were dull, and without any
change for the better.
The statement made by Sir Robert Peel last night in tho
House of Commons, relative to the intentions of Govern-
ment connected with railway projects, and the means to be
adopted to wind up doubtful projects, has given the most
unqualified' satisfaction in the City, not only on the'
Stock Exchange, but among the banking and com-
mercial interests. There is now a prospect that
at no very distant period a vast amount of money now
locked up, in the shape of railway deposit., will be returned
into circulation, and that schemes which were brought into
existence during the mania of the months of June, July,
August, and September last, will be brought to a
termination, and all expenses incurred paid off,
and the managing and provisional committee men be
eased from additional responsibilities, and affairs wound
up with honour to all parties. Still the details to be fur-
nished by the Earl of Dalhousie, to be given in the House of
Lords this ever.ing, are most eagerly looked for. All parties
agree that, by instantly passing resolutions through Parlia-
ment upon the topic stated, is, the best course to be
adopted, leaving the Bill to take its ordinary course, its
principle being of course admitted. There is one great feature
in the proposals of Sir Robert Peel which deserve especial
notice, and that is, that all promoters of schemes, whether
they have been enabled to go before Parliament or not,
should be held liable to all engineering or other expenses
necessarily incurred.
There are not any late colonial arrivals announced in the
City to-day.
The British Securities have been rather fiat to-iay. Con-
sols for the account have fluctuated only from 96141 %; for
Money from 961,E %; the Reduced Three per Cents. from
951 to 95%; New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. from
97.1* to 96% ; and Exchequer-bills have ranged from 235. to
265. premium.
This evening's Gazette will intimate the amount of surplus
revenue to be laid out in the redemption of the debt during
the present quarter.
The Foreign Stock Exchange list has a very meagre ap-
pearance to-day. The only bargains have been in the
Brazilian Five per Cents., at 80%; in the Mexican Deferred,
at 163% ; in the Portuguese Four per Cents. for the Account,
58 ; and in the Belgic Four-and-a-Half per Cents., at 98.
The Shares of lines of railway in operation, and what are
considered good scrip, have been in rather better request.
