' MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
(From The Sun of Last Night.)
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was dull.
Sales 5,000 to 6,000 bales, at fully previous rates. Shares
were steady.
There are no arrivals to-day with later colonial, or foreign
intelligence, but the extraordinary events in home politics
during the last few days absolutely engross almost un-
divided attention, while already we observe symptoms of a
disposition to test practically the advantages of the new
tariff.
The decisions in favour of the legality of Railway Scrip
Transfers excite much satisfaction in the City, because what-
ever might have been the intention of Parliament to unsettle
the immense business done hitherto, and open the door to
litigation, would be of the most serious consequences for
brokers and clients.
The Funds are looking very firm again to-day, and there
is more inclination to transact business, the dividends being
due in the course of a few days. Consols are 93% 1/2 for the
opening. New Three-and a-Quarter per Cents. have touched
97. Bank Stock has been quiet at 205. Exchequer-bills
have not been quite so well supported. The premium is 9s.
to 11s.
The Foreign Market is looking well. Spanish Three per
Cents. are 37 to 14, Venezuela Bonds have been done at
421/2 , Portuguese Four per Cents. realise 4912 to 50, and
Mexican have declined to 27% 1/s. Dutch Two-and-a-Half
per Cents. have been quoted 61.
Shares have been generally in more favour; and, with the
breaking up of so many of the new schemes, an improve-
ment in prices is likely to be the result.
