MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were

5,000 bales, comprising 4.500 AMerican, 100 Bahia, at

BCI. to Sid.; 100. Egyptian, at Bd. to B*d.; and 200 Surat,
at sid. per lb.—ln Railway Shares a large business was
transacted at higher prices.
Tho Corn Market is very heavy to-day at barely pre-
vious rates.

Advices from Bombay, &c., have come to hand by the
Overland Mail. Up, to the 2d January no change had
occurred in the rate of interest of money, and imports
were dull at Bombay, buyers still evincing much caution.
There were free supplies. The firm of D. and_ M.
Pestonjee had suspended, but was expected to pay in
full. The exchange on London had been as high as
Ls. 2d., but at the latest date was 2s. 2id. The
affair o the North Western Bank of India was
still a leading topic, and the directors reiterate the
charge against their secretary, Major Angelo, of having
appropriated the Bank funds to his private expenditure,
and used their blank bill forms for that purpose. For-
tunately the loss is stated not to exceed 12,0001., and
the securities will be called upon to make good all or
part of this.
At Calcutta, produce realised extreme rates. The
markets had not been so much affected by the last
steamer's news as might have been expected. The ex-
change had settled down at a moderate figure. Freights
had fallen lower than before. Indigo sold steadily.
Good bills on London were scarce.

By her Majesty's packet Linnet we have accounts of
the 19th Dec. from Rio de Janeiro. The fever had
again broken out. Discounts were steady at 7 per cent.,
with rather an increased demand. Exchange on London
298, and with rather an extensive business. The un-
reasonable credit given in Brazil by importers to the
retailers, has long been a matter of grievous complaint,
and the merchants bad at length entered into a most
salutary convention, via., to give ten months' credit on
signed accounts, and twelve months on bills, and to
charge interest at the rate of 1 per cent. per month
after that date.
The Buenos Ayres accounts are not later than Nov.
9. There were 5C vessels in pert of 11,055 tons. The
exchange on London was 3id. per dollar.
Hamburgh letters of Friaay last quote the exchange
on London 13 24, being a rise of half a schilling. Coffee
Is as firm, though rather quiet.
At Amsterdam, on the Ist inst., there were a good
many buyers of Dutch Two-and-ts-Half per Cents. at
57 7-16, being an improvement. Austrian Bonds were
advancing. Mexican were in more demand.
The Frankfort quotations on the 31st ult. were 7311
for Austrian Metailics, and 334 for Spanish Bonds.
A special meeting of the Australian Mining Company
was held this day, for the appointment of a committee
to investigate the affairs of the company, when five
shareholders were named for that purpose. The pros-
pects of the mine are stated not to be improving, and the
100,0001. suck is worth only about 40,000/.
The English Stock Market continues exceedingly dull,
speculation being almost entirely directed to shares.
Still there is an impression that the Ministry have ar-
ranged all differences, and will secure a good majority
in Parliament. Consols have been 96i the New
Three-and-a• Quarter per Cents. 988 13-, and the Three
per Cents. 97 -a. Exchequer-bills have been masked
58s. to 615., and India Bonds 71s. premium. India Stock
has been at 2664.
In the Foreign Market prices are looking up. Spanish
Five per Cents. have been 18i 4, and the Three per
Cents. 3Si Portuguese Four per Cents. have been
33i ex. div. Buenos Ayres Bonds have risen from 47
to 52, the prospect of a war with Brazil being considered
as removed. Brazilian Old Stock has been quoted 91i;
Mexican Bonds have been firm at 338 /, and Peruvian
Four-and a-Half per Cents. have risen to 81 and 81t.
Dutch Four per Cents. have been 91 to 4, Belgian Four-
and-a-Half per Cents. 92 to I, and Russian Four-and•a-
Half per Cents. 978 to it.
Railway Shares have all been higher again, and the
old lines with 1001. paid up opened at 11. to 21. advance
upon further orders to buy from country correspondents.
The smaller undertakings have been good in proportion,
and the dealings are extensive. At the hour of our
writing, there appears to be a greater disposition to sell,
and North-Western, &c., have gone back a little.
Foreign Shares are buoyant.
The following communication, dated the 28th ultimo,
has been received from the Secretary of the Brighton
and South Coast Railway Company :—" I beg to in-
form you that, at the half-yearly meeting of this com-
pany, held on the 24th ult., it was resolved that the class
of shares denominated 'Preferential Five per Cent. Shares
E, be converted into a Five per Cent. Stock; and I have to
give you notice that the wording of all deeds of transfer,
intended for registration, must be ' Preferential Five
per Cent. Stock, 1851, from 501. shares E,' and that the
certificates for stock may be issued in lieu thereof.
" I have to request that this communication may be
brought under the notice of your committee, with a view
of their directing that this stock, as also that consoli-
dated Ist August, 1850, of which due notice was given
to you, may be, as is the case with our ordinary and Six
per Cent. Stocks, dealt in as such, and quoted in the lists
accordingly."
