MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool p-sterday were esti-
mated at 3,000 bales, comprising 200 Pernam and Ma-
ranham at lii. to 8d; 400 Surat, .g.t 4d. to 44d.; and
the remainder American. The market was heavy and
irregular, and prices of American, Brazil, Egyptian,
and Surat were d. per lb. lower.—ln Railway 4bares
there was a further decline.
The transactions in the Produce Markets have in-
creased this week, but the quantity of the leading staples
placed upon the market has been so fully adequate to
the demand that prices have not improved. Indeed, for
coffee, tea, and tallow, the rates have been barely main-
tained

Au official statement, just issued, enables us to make
the following comparisons:—

The following is a letter from Mr. Lord, the Spanish
American Bondholders' Committee's agent, dated La
Guayra, 9th April, 1851:
" With reference to my last of the 25th nit., I have
now to inform the committee that the law upon extra-
ordinary contribution has passed the Chamber of Repre-
sentatives, and has been read a first time i❑ the Senate.
Instead, however, of being limited to two years,,as was
first proposed, greater latitude has been given, and its
duration is to be—the time necessary for this contribu-
tion to cover the int4rest already due on the foreign debt
to the Ist inst., viz., for four years from the Ist of April,
1847. Also that the President of the Republic will this
day send a message to Congress asking for a vote of
confidence, in other words, an authorization (similar
to that given by the decree of the 25th of April, 1838,
that led to the settlement in 1840) to the
executive to enter into treaty and complete arrange.
manta with the bondholders for a modification of the
Executive decree of 16th September of 1840, and the
report is that a Minister Plenipotentiary is to proceed
to London soon after the session of Congress is closed.
The Minister of Finance has informed my agent at Caracas
that his numerous occupations have hitherto prevented
his replying to my late letters, but that he will do so
shortly; he said something also about remittances, re-
specting which I prefer rather to wait for his official
communication."

These repeated evidences of what the Bondholders'
Committee and agents are accomplishing reflect credit on
all parties.

The Hamburgh mail, with Tuesday's advices, brings
the quotation for bills on London still at 13 3, with the
price of gold at 425. The Grain market was very firm.
In Coffee there was no particular alteration, and not
much was offering.
At Amsterdam, on the 7th inst., Dutch Stock was
more buoyant, and Spanish was in favour.
The intelligence from Lisbon of the appointment of
Marshal Saldanah as Prime Minister is considered
to put an end to the civil war in Portugal, if such it could
be termed, and the anxiety now is to learn how the
newly acquired power will be exercised.
A meeting of several influential parties took place
yesterday, as we announced previously was intended, to
further the object of promoting tribunals of commerce,
and it is satisfactory to find that Lord Wharncliffe will
bring the subject under the notice of the Legislature.
In English Stocks there is very little doing, but the
quotations are buoyant, and have further advanced II per
cent. The large majority for Ministers last night, the
favourable complexion of affairs in France, where the
petitions become increasingly urgent for a revision of the
Constitution and the prolongation of the President's
rule, together with the satisfactory news from Portugal,
have all tended to inspire confidence, and as the day for
settling the Account draws near, there are some indica-
tions of its being Bearish. Consols have realised 97k

was given in this case after he left the Court yesterday

IVIARLBRO'-STREET—(THIS DAY.)
aßyoonuhnEguY
German,AT Fnano 's HOTEL.—
Charles Meyer, about 20 years of age,
was brought before Mr. Hardwick, charged with break-
ing open a travelling case, in a bed-room at Fladong's
Hotel, 144, Oxford-street, and stealing therefrom a
purse, containing thirty sovereigns, and a quantity of
American gold and silver money, the property of Mr.
Robert Bayman.
The prosecutor deposed that he was a wine-merchant,
residing at Madeira, but was at present staying at Fla-
dong's Hotel. On Wednesday night, about half-past
ten o'clock, on entering a room adjoining his bed-room,
he found that his travelling case had been broken open,
and his papers much disturbed. On looking into the
box be discovered that his purse, containing 30 sove-
reigns and 25 dollars in American gold eagles, had
been stolen therefrom. The purse produced is his
property.
Rebecca Collinson, chambermaid at Fladong's Hotel,
said she knew the prisoner, who came to lodge in the
house on Monday last. On Wednesday evening, about
a quarter past eight, she went to arrange the prisoner's
room for the night. On entering the room she found it
in great disorder, and the fire-irons bent; by the
papers
eof
the drawers she found some papers addressed to Mr.
Bayman, and thinking it strange that those
should be in the prisoner's room, she went into that
occupied by the prosecutor, and on looking round
missed a travelling case from off the table. She imaie_
diately went down stairs and informed Mr. Lovegrovc,
the proprietor of the hotel, of the cireutustoce. Ho
went up stairs with her and searched the room, and in
the bottom drawer in the prisoner's room the travelling
ease was found broken open. The prisoner did not pay

hie bill before he left, ncr had he left anything of value
behind him.
Roberts, 107 D, said on Wednesday evening last he
was sent :or by Mr. Lovegrove, who informed him that
a robbery had bean committed in his house. On search-
ing the prisoner's room he saw the travelling case pro-
duced, broken open. In the inside ho found twenty
sovereigns and a gold locket wrapped up in paper, which
no doubt had escaped the notice of the thief. The
p,plier and handle or the fire shovel were bent, and on ap-
plying them to the marks on the box he found that they
exactly corresponded. Mr. Lovegrove, who suspected
that the prisoner was the thief, then directed him to
telegraph the prisoner to Dover.
Mr. Coram, superintendent of the Dover police, stated
that about one o'clock yesterday morning he received
information from Mr. Lovegrove, by electric telegraph,
that a robbery had taken place at his house by a German
named Meyer. From inquiries which he subsequently
mrde he went to the Dover Castle Hotel, and appre-
hended the prisoner in bed. On a dressing table he
found the purse produced, and about 15/, in gold and
silver money. He also found a new portmanteau, con-
taining a quantity of new wsaring apparel, which he
(prisoner) had purchased out of the proceeds of the
robbery. He conveyed him to the station, and directly
telegraphed up to Mr. Lovegrove, who came down and
identified the prisoner. Witness added that the prisoner
had been concerned in other hotel robberies, as several
pawnbrokers' tickets, referring to property which had
been stolen, was found upon him.
Mr. Lovegrove informed the Court that directly he
discovered the robbery, and that the prisoner had dis-
appeared, he used every exertion for his apprehension.
The prisoner came to his house on Monday last, and
said that he had just arrived from South America, on
his way to Paris, having received a letter informing
him that his father had died very suddenly at the door
of his banker's in Paris. From the prisoner's artless
and plausible manner he did not suspect him to be a
thief, and accordingly took him into his house. Mr.
Lovegrove added that he had made up his mind to be
careful as to the character of the foreigners he took in,
and as he had been bitten this time he would keep a
sharp eye upon such visitors for the future. There was
a Hotelkeepers' Protection Society, but it was badly sup-
ported, as not more than 70 hotelkeepers subscribed to it.
The prisoner, who said he was a deserter from the
Austrian service, did not deny the charge, and was fully
committed for trial.

RAMBLES in the CRYSTAL PALACE
(THIS DAY.)

On every visit to the Exhibition we have to make the
same remark of the increasing number of visitors which
each day brings. Now that the season ticket holders
have got accustomed to the plaCe there is but little diffi•
culty in distinguishing those who are there for the first
time only. A few steps only past the ticket-barrier is
sufficient, and they are brought to a dead stop in won-
der and amazement at the scene around them. Those,
however, whose frequent visits have made pretty familiar
with the first view, may be seen hurrying on to the de-
partment which they have assigned themselves for the
day's task, and in this manner every corner of the
building very soon after the first opening has its com-
plement of visitors assigned to it. Each day, too, reveals
new treasures; some very splendid articles of bijoutterie,
and jewel work have made their appearance in the
French quarter, and during the whole of the morning
we noticed a large crowd assembled round the cases,
and occasionally many waiting hard by to take their
turns of inspection. The sculpture, too, continues to
increase, especially in the Italian quarter, where some
most beautiful specimens have lately been placed;
and in the centre the colossal bronze statue of her
Majesty from the Vielle-Montagne works has
excited much admiration. We noticed, too, that
most of the fair visitors stayed before the
entrance to the Spanish department, where was dis-
played some beautiful specimens of Spanish lace, and a
dress of embroidered blonde over :amber satin, which
was an object of special delight. The Zoliverein de-
partment grows more crowded each day, especially that
part devoted to the kingdom of Saxony; but the ar-
rangements in the extreme rear of the French quarter
are not yet completed, and we can only hope that their
splendour and beauty, when thrown entirely open, may be
sufficient to compensate fur the delay. It is an object
of especial regret that the perfumery department has
not been placed in a more accessible situation; as it is
in a tar-off corner of the north-east gallery, but few
visitors, comparatively speaking, find their way to it,
though we feel convinced that it has attractions which
would draw the attention of the fairer portion, and not a
few of the male exquisites. Here M. Rimmel, of Gerard-
street, has established for the benefit of the lady visitors
a tiny fount, which continually sends forth a limpid jet
of distilled toilette vinegar, in which they are in-
vited to dip their handkerchiefs. Messrs. Rowland too,
have a fount of aqua d'oro hard by, and Mr. Ede
also, of eau de cologne. In addition, M. Rimmel
distributes perfumed almanacks to his visitors, a tempta-
tion which we are sure will draw many to that quarter.
The perfumed bouquets, too, which he distributes will,
we are sure, find great favour; they are for winter use,
and are formed of artificials in imitation of the rarest
exotics—each flower emitting the peculiar scent of that
which it represents. We prophesy that this quarter will
become one of the most frequented in the Crystal Palace
when it becomes more extensively known, as the articles
it contains are of the rarest description, and such
as will find especial favour in the eyes of all. The view,
too, which it commands of the transept is one of the
boat to be obtained anywhere, and fully compensates for
the intricate route by which it is to be reached. The
galleries generally, in the Foreign department, present
anything but a finished appearance, and in some places
are quite empty. With regard to the refreshments pro-
vided in the Crystal Palace, as far as our experience is
concerned they are of the most excellent description,
and are furnished, at a moderate charge. We certainly
cannot support the complaint of " the Distressed Agri-
culturist" in this morning's Times, though by the way
a distressed agriculturist indulging in ices is
rather anomalous, and a subject truly worthy
of the pencil of the facetious Mr. Punch.
Cards, with the prices of each article, are hung
about the refreshment room—and a great crowd there
certainly is to be found in it from morning to night. Our
contemporary has been constituted the great redresser of
all modern grievances, but to call on it to equalize the
price of ices, and to correct the delinquencies of oblivious
waiters, is certainly an abuse of its mighty powers.

-----
PROPOSED TOTE OF WANT OF CON-
FIDENCE IN THE MINISTRY.
(From the Morning Advertiser.)
We have just received a copy of Mr. Urquhart's mo-
tion, to be submitted to the House this evening, ex-
pressive of want of confidence in Ministers. The reso-
lution which the Hon. Gentleman is to move is as fol-
lows:—" That the recent act of the Pope in dividing
England into dioceses, and appointing bishops thereto,
was encouraged by the conduct and express declaration
of the First Lord of the Treasury. That the publica-
tion by Lord John Russell of his letter to the Bishop of
Durhaw, which contained expressions calculated to
wound the religious feelings of many of her Majesty's
subjects, produced large expectations of legislative
remedies which have been disappointed by the provisions
contained in the measure now submitted to the House."
This will bring matters to a bearing. It would not be
easy to employ more decided phraseology. The debate
to which the motion will give rise, is expected to be the
most animated and acrimonious of the session. We et.n-
not speak with certainty as to the issue, beca-use up to a
late hour last night, some of the leading Peelites were
undecided as to the course which they should adopt. A
deputation of Irish Members waited on a well-known
Right Hon. Baronet, with the view of inducing him to
place himself in antagonism to the Government, but they
had not quite succeeded when they left. Yiis mind was
not then made up. The probability is, that he will not
vote at all, and of course, in that case, he will not take
part in the debate.
The Irish Members were all yesterday engaged, with
a zeal which has never been surpassed, in canvassing
for supporters to the vote of want of confidence. They
have sent off expresses to various parts of Ireland for
absent Members to hurry over to the division; and in
order that they may be able to get over their friends in
time, they will take care to procure an adjournment of
tho debate till Monday, if not till Tuesday. The Pro-
tectionists as a body, are to give their most strenuous
support to the motion. Some, however, of the inde-
pendent Liberals are unwilling to vote, on this occasion,
against Ministers. Among these there will be found
the names of two or three of the Metropolitan
Members.

The most extraordinary circumstance connected with
the matter is, that up till nine o'clock last night Ministers
themselves had not the slightest idea of what was going
on against them. The mine was on the eve of springing
beneath their feet, and they entirely unconscious of their
danger It is unnecessary to say, that if the motio❑ of
Mr. Urquhart be carried, or if it be within a few votes
of being so, Ministers will, on the following morning,
resign their seats in the Cabinet, never to occupy them
again.

THE EAST INDIA HousE •
Captain John Shep-
herd and Sir James Weir Hogg, .Bart., M P., have been re-
elected chairman and deputy;chairman of the Board of Di-
rectors of the East India Company for the ensuing year.
This renewed honour is of but rare occurrence, the last occa-
sion when it was conferred being shortly prior to the re-
newal of the Company's charter in 1833.
ELECTRIC COMMUNICATION WIT/I THE EXHIBI-
T:or BELOW(.—Yesterday the electric communication
between Buckingham Palace, the Admiralty, the head
police-station, Scotland-yard, and the Exhibition building,
was completed. By this medium, in the event of fire or any-
thing happening, to call for extra assistance, the same will
reach the spot within 15 minutes.

A fine screw steam-ship will be launched in June
from a building-yard on the Clyde. She is intended to trade
between Liverpool and the United States, and is the largest,
with one exception, ever built in Great Britain for the mer-
chant service. She is a three-decker, 273 feet in length on
the spar deck, and 930 feet over all; beam 37 feet 9 inches,
and measures upwards of 2,100 tons. She will be propelled
by two engines of about 450-horse power.
LINCOLN'S INN, MAY B.—The after mentioned
members of the Hon. Society of Lincoln's Inn have been called
