MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

There was a quiet but steady market for Cotton at Liver-
pool on Saturdiy, sales about 4,600 bales. A moderate
business was done in Shares. The market generally was firm.

We understand that the friends of free-trade are about to
celebrate the passing of the corn and -tariff measures by a
public dinner in Covent-garden Theatre. This afternoon a
preliminary meeting will be held in the theatre to make
arrangements. It is expected from the number of indivi-
duals, who have expressed a desire to aid the cause, that a
most numerous attendance will be given, and that the affair
will go oft with the greatest éclat.
There are accounts this morning from the West Indies,
brought by the Trinity Yacht in the very short period of
twenty-four days. This vessel has come over in a shorter
period than any of the mail-packet steamers have yet accom-
plishrd the voyage. The complaints of the planters were
still very general, and deep anxiety was manifested as to the
resolves of Parliament with respect to the sugar duties.
The principal part of the cargo of the Trinity Yacht consists
of 20,. 00 pine apples, said to be in first-rate connition.
From the Cap- of Good Hope advices have been received
to-day, to the 16!h May. The skirmishes between the troops
and the Kaffirs still continued, and generally terminated in
favour of the latter, but this did not prevent constant deprecia-
tions, burning of home .teads, robbery of cattle, &c.,nwing tot he
great extent of the frontier, and he fact that the military
arrangements for its defence were not in a complete state,
although very effective considering the force and stores at
the disposal of the Governor. There is an undoubted neces-
sity f r early and ample reinforcements from England.
The Funds have been inactive this morning, and the at-
tendance of the dealers and others is but limited, owing to
the beautiful weather. Consols have been marked 9574 to
to 96, being abort. the same for both Money and Time. Ex-
chequer-bills have just been quoted 15s. premium. The New
Ttire - and-a- Half per Cents. have realised 97% 74, and the

The transactions in the Foreign market have been of mo-
derate extent, and there is not much fluctuation to notice.

MARKET NEWS. -(THIS DAY:

CORN EXCHANUE-(MONDAY.

During the past week the arrivals of all descriptions of Grain of
home produce for our market has been on a very limited scale ;
wh.le, from .-cotland and Ireland, very little Corn has come to hand,
From abroad, however, large quantities of IVlleat, Oats, and Flour,
have been received in good condition. Fresh up to-day the receipts
of English Wheat coastwise, as well as by lard-carriage and sample,
were on a very moderate scale ; consequently, the stands were by no
means heavily filled with samples. Still, however (and notwith-
standing the attendance of buyers was somewhat numerous), owing to
the pressure of free foreign Wheat on the market, and the fine
weather tor the growing crops, the demand for Wheat of home pro-
duce was very heavy, at a decline in the quotations obtained on
Monday last of lt.m is to 2s, in some instances 3s per quarter. and
a clearance was not eff cted. In free foreign Wheat, accordingly,
little business was transacted, yet we can notice no alteration in
value. To sell, lower rates must have been submitted to. We un-
derstand.; that In parts of Devonshire, Hampshire, Sussex,
and Kent, Wheat cutting has been already commenced.
The best parcels of Barley supported previous quotations. All other
kinds were slow of sale, at barely late rates. Fine dry Malt was
quite as dear. In other kinds very few sales took place. From our
own coasts, as well as from Scotland and Ireland, very few Oats have
come to hand ; but we had a large show of Foreign. The Oat trade
ruled dull, at previous quotations. For Beans there was rather more
inquiry, at very full prices. Peas and Flour, as well as most kinds
of seeds, were dull, at late rates.

SMITHFIELD.
During the past week, the imports of live stock from abroad have
consisted of 200 Oxen and Cows, and 22 Calves from Holland, to-
gether with 16 Oxen from Hamburgh. To-day we had on offer 250
Forelen Beasts, and 500 ditto of Sheep, some of which, esrecially
nine of the Hamburg!' bea-ta, imp,rted by Mr. Alexander, were of
very prime quality. Still, however, the demand for them
was in a very sluggish state, at about last week's quotations.
Fresh up from our own grazing districts the arrivals of Beasts
were seasonably extensive, and in very prime condition.
Although the attendanee of buyers was somewhat numerous, the
Beef trade was in a very depressed state, and the prices obtained on
Monday last were with difficulty supported, the highest price for the
eosohoi
rsel 1,0
hest Scots not exceeding 3e 10d per Sibs, and at which a clearance
was not effeeteel. Ihe northern droves consisted of about 1,
horns, while trom Norfolk, Suffolk, Esswx and Cambrio7. we
received 1,2e0 Scots, shorthorns, and homebreds ; from the
western and midland counties, 300 Herefords. runts, Devons,
&c., and from other parts of England, 203 of various kinds.
The numbers of Sheep were again very extensive, while very few of
them were beneath the middle quality. Prime old Downs sold
steadily at full prices, and all other kinds supported previous quota-
tions. '..Cotwithstanding the supply of Lambs was large, the Lamb
trade ruled steady, at last week's currencies. Calves, the number of
which was good, moved OZ steadily at late ratoa. Id rigs next to
