MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The Cotton market at Liverpool yesterday was dull.
Sales, 5,000 bales, including 700 American, at 5%d. to 61/sd.
for export. There was no alteration in prices, but buyers
had art advantage. Shares were quiet.
There are ship letters but by one arrival to-day, viz., the
Great Britain. These are considered to be favourable in re-
ference to mercantile and monetary matters, and are certainly
satisfactory to the Americans in respect to their warlike
operations against Mexico. Referring to the Oregon matter,
which is likely to be of revived interest, a New York con-
temporary states that there must be great concessions made
by each—perhaps greater than either will be disposed to
make—and all for a territory which, at a meeting in New
York, Mr. Buchanan, if our memory serve right, thus
graphically, and, no doubt, honestly, describes:—
" Mr. President,—The thought which is deepest as well as
uppermost in my mind, which pervades it entirely at all mo-
ments, which I am sure occupies your minds as well as mine,
must have vent. The nark clouds we have so long seen
rising from the west—do I now meet you for the last time
before they are to burst in thunder and lightning, and to
scatter us? Are the hands of brother to be raised against
brother, like those of Cain? Are the land and the sea to be
stained with blood shed by kindred? God forbid ! Our last
accounts from England give us the oft-repeated assurance
that therßritish Government entertain a most earnest desire
to preserve peace. The meeting here this evening of so
many respectable persons of both countries evinces the na
tural sympathy which exists amongst us. All of Oregon is
not worth half the loss which the apprehension of war re-
specting it has already produced. Were I not afraid of be-
coming tedions, I might, from personal experience,
give you some idea of the value, or the value-
lessness (if I may use the word), of the country
beyond Lake Huron.—(Go on.) Then you must pardon the
appearance of egotism. Gentlemen—it was my honourable
task, after five years of exposed service, about the upper
great lakes and beyond them, to superintend the establhh-
, ment of the now much-talked-of 49th penilel of north lati-
tude, at the lake of the woods in the year 1825, and there to
erect a monument. I tell you, as a fact, that for a distance
of 1,000 miles, before 1 reached that point, though I visited
numerous posts and forts, as they are called, of the fur-
traders, between the months of May and October, which
are the most favourable to vegetation, I never could ob-
tain one single vegetable—a potato, carrot, turnip, or even a
sailed, to check the stringent thirst which our salted meat
produced, or to allay the apprehension of scurvy. I leave
it for you to imagine what luxuries are to be expected by
going further. May the Almighty dispose the hearts of the
rulers in both countries to the consideration of their con-
sanguinity and identical interest, and to the preservation of
family peace. And the Consul closed by giving this toast—
' Anglo-Saxon blood too good to be spilt. '
The British Plantation Sugar market, owing to the post-
ponement of the duty question, has been rising lately, and is
expected to keep firm with such unfavourable accounts from
the West Indies.
The Public Securities rule steadily for the most part, but
they exhibit no buoyancy, and the only improvement is in
Exchequer-bills, •now quoted at Bs. to 13s. premium. New
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 9634 to 96%, and
the Three per Cents. Reduced 95 to %. Bank tock is marked
205% to 206%.
The Foreign Investments have been dull. Spanish Five
per Cents. are 241,x, and the Passives Wt. Portuguese Four
per Cents, are 49% to 50%. Mexican B ,nds have been at
271/ to %, being a little flatter, but otherwise exhibiting
scarcely any alteration compared with yesterday, even in the
face of the interesting advices received to-day. Chilian
Bonds are at 96% ' • Brazilian have been at 84.
The demand forßailway Shares has been limited, and the
quotations, as the list will show, have not varied much.
