MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 4,000
bales, with a heavy market and prices declining,
American being nearly id. per lb. lower. The sales
comprised 3,000 American, 300 Martians and Maranham
at 71d. to 81d., 100 Bahia at 71d. to 7j:1., and 400 Surat
at 41d. to sid. per lb.—Railway Shares were firm.
The Brazilian mail brings news of a slight fall in the
Exchange. The fear of a war with Buenos Ayres was
not allayed.
In the accounts of the 21st of February from Buenos
Ayres, it is stated that the improvement which occurred
in the markets during December had not been main-
tained. Several failures among retail dealers, and souse
of them to a largo amount, had reduced business to its
previous state of distrust and langour, from which, at the
latest date, it was only slowly recovering. Very little
was doing beyond supplying the immediate ne-
cessities of the day. In the dry-goods de-
partment there had been little movement, with
prices heavy and a still downward tendency; and of the
recent importation, the greater part must remain in first
hands, as there were few inducements to hazard large
speculations. The January arrivals to a largo extent
were Brazilian and Spanish, and these would bo steadily
absorbed, consisting of wine, sugar, rice, tobacco, tcc.
The direct immigration last year into Buenos Ayres
amounted to 12,500 persons. Export produce was
scarce and in good demand. This was owing
chiefly to the rapid shipments of the previous
months. There was said to be an average number of
cattle in the province. The statement of the public
Treasury for January, 1851, shows a balance of 14,680,478
dollars. Political questions remained apparently in
state cue.
The following is a report frcm New York:—
"It is the impression in financial circles that the
Money Market will be easier in the course of thirty
days, and that about the middle of May we shall be in
the midst of another speculative movement in fancy
stocks. This is all possible and very probable. The
Money Market at present is affected by a variety of
causes. In the first place, the banks have just been called
upon for their regular quarterly statements, and they have
been preparing their affairs fur as favourable a report as
possible; in the second place the payments of all classes
of investments during March and the early part of
April are invariably heavier than at any other season,
and this year they have been particularly large, and the
banks, in consequence of a greater demand upon their de-
posits in provietng for the enormous amount of corpora-
tion securities put upon the market fur sale, have not
been able to afford the usual facilities in the
emergency; in the third place, the shipments
of specie have been extensive, and although the receipts
from California have been, since the first of January
last, about eight millions of dollars more than the ship-
ments to foreign countri4 s, the tact that nearly every
steamer and pocket leaving this port for Europe take
several hundred thousand dollars in specie, has
had a tendency to lighten the money market.
These things have had an unfavourable influence
upon Stocks, and have depressed prices considerably;
but we should have had a break-down in the Stock
Market in the absence of the aterve-tiauaed causes—per-
haps not to the extent realised; but the fancies had be-
come so much inflated, the speculations had become so
protracted, the outsiders so lull of stocks, the operations
extended se tar beyond their means, that a collapse was
inevitable. It was hastened by bevel at local eYe ht 2, .and
it has been more serious than it otherwise would
have been, in consequence of the contraction in thy:
money market, the result of enumerated causes. It must
be borne in mite' that there has been a depreciation of
from 10 to 20 per cent. in nearly every saucy on the list,
that most of them are intrinsically worth what they are
now Felling at. This is an important consideration, and
should be borne in mind by outsiders generally."
A commissioner has been appointed by the Dutch
Government to treat with Belgium concerning a new
treaty of commerce and navigation.
The night trains from Brussels to Cologne are to be
accelerated after the Ist of next May, when the journey
will take only 18 instead of 24 hours. The telegraphic
lines from Brussels to Antwerp are to be all worked di-
rectly.. At Amsterdam, on the 13th, Dutch Two-and-a-
Half per Cents, were 57k,
The English Funds have been rather flatter this morn-
ing, but the sales are not of moment, and a slight falling
off in the Money purchases, succeeding the previous
activity, is the cause. Consols have been marked 974
for Transfer, and 978 for Account. The New Three-
and- a- Quarter per Cents. have been 978 to 988, and
the Three per Cents. 961 Bank Stock is worth 211
to 212. Exchequer-buls have been 545. to 575. prem.
The Foreign Market has been dull. The most im-
portant movement has been in Portuguese Bonds, which
have fallen 2 to 3 per cent. owing to the intelligence of a
revolution, with Marshal Saldauha at its head. The
Four per Cents. have been 22 t 0.33. Spanish Five per
Cents, have been 188 to 19. Mexican Bonds are flat at
33 to 33-, owing to the non-arrival of the mail, sup-
posed to have arisen from the steamer having put back
or coals.
Shares are generally better.
