MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The particulars of the treaty of commerce and navi-
gation betwee❑ England and Sardinia, the ratifications
of which were exchanged on the Bth instant have
been received. This treaty professes to re-
move various impediments and to render more
effective the Acts passed here and in Sardinia in
June, 1849, and July, 1850, abolishing differential duties.
Article one provides that there shall be reciprocal
liberty of commerce between all the dominions of the
two high contracting parties; and the subjects of each
of them shall, throughout the whole extent of the terri-
tories of the other, enjoy the same rights, privileges,
liberties, favours, immunities, and exemptions, in mat-
ters of commerce, which are or may be enjoyed by native
subjects.

The second article stipulates that all merchandize and
articles of commerce, the produce or manufacture either
of the kingdom of Sardinia or of any other country,
which may be legally importable into the ports of the
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, its
colonies and possessions, in British vessels, may like-
wise be imported into those ports in Sardinian vessels,
without being liable to any other or higher duties, of
whatever denomination, than if such merchan-
dize or productions were imported in British vessels;
and reciprocally, all merchand!zo and articles of com-
merce, the produce or manufacture either of the United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, its colonies and
possessions, or of any other country, which may be le-
gally importable into the kingdom of Sardinia in Sar-
dinian vessels, may likewise be imported into those ports
in British vessels, without being liable to any other or
higher duties, than if such merchandize or productions
were imported in Sardinian vessels. The said reciprocal
equality cf treatment shall take effect without distinction
whether such merchandize come directly from the place
of origin, or from any other place.
Article three states that the same reciprocal equality
of treatment shall take effect in regard to all that con-
cerns exportation and transit, without distinction as to
origin or destination; and also in regard to bounties,
facilities and drawbacks, which are or may hereafter be
granted by the legislation of the two countries.
The fourth article allows the subjects of either power
to settle in the two countries, and trade without lot or
hindrance, except that British subject cannot sell or
purchase tobacco, salt, gunpowder, ball, shot, and playing
cards in Sardinia, those being Crown monopolies.
Article five, with those following, exempt the vessels
of either country engaged in the foreign trade from any
port or other dues, save those levied upon the ships of
the respective countries, and no privileges are to be
granted to national vessels not accorded to those of the
two contracting powers, in regard to stationing, loading,
and ships may discharge ail or part of their cargoes
at one port, and then proceed to another. The coasting
trade is exempt. In cases or' wreck, the consuls of the
respective countries will have control over the property
or derelict. Should any new concessions in duties, &c.,
be granted to other powers by the contracting states,
Sardinia or England, as the case may be, are to be in-
cluded. The treaty is to be in force for twelve years, and
subsequently twelve months notice will be required ere
it expires.
There is no intelligence of the steamer from America.
Accounts from Belgium state that, the Chamber of
Commerce at Antwerp had held a meeting upon the sub-
ject of the Sugar law, and that the result of its delibera-
tion was, that the Chamber considered the advantages
granted by the law relating to home-grown Sugar are, in
a great measure the cause of the bad position of the
sugar interest. That it is imperative to have a radical
retorm both as to the amount of the duty on home-
grown Sugar, and its appiication. A deputation was to
proceed to Brussels to seek a revision of the law.
In the Amsterdam Stock Market, Dutch Securities
were very firm, but Spanish was more offered.
Intelligence has been received from Mr. Lord, the
agent at La Guayra, of the Spanish American Bond-
holders' Committee, to the effect that the President was
urging the claims of the foreign creditors upon the at-
tention of Congress, and that the Customs' receipts
would in future be strictly apportioned to the dividends,
in the ratio agreed upon formerly. At the same time it
was hoped that through the intervention of the British
Minister the sums already diverted from their legitimate
purpose would be made up; and the President recom-
mended Congress to send a special envoy to London in
order to represent the true state of the finances of the
republic.
In the English Funds there is scarcely any business
doing, and prices are without variation. Consols have
been 974 The attendance of speculators is com-
paratively limited, and for a day or two many will
keep holiday. People look to France just now as the
only quarter where political events of a character inte-
resting or important are likely to occur. The New
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 98 to and
the Three per Cents., 961 Exchequer-bills have
been 545. to 575., and India Bonds, 595. to 625. premium,
Foreign Securities have been moderately active. Spa-
nish Five per Cents. have been 191 and the Three per
Cents. 39 ie being a shade better. Portuguese Four
per Cents. have been dull at 33. Mexican I3onds have
been rather fluctuating, viz., 35/ to 35i3,-, and Peruvian
Deferred 39. Brezilian Bonds have been 89, Grenada
17, and Venezuela 321 to 33. Russian Four-and-a-Halt
per Cents. have been quoted 994, Dutch Fuur per Cents.

Shires are looking up again, and a fair
business is doing in them. East Lancashire, Great
Northern, Aberdeen, Great Western, North-Western,
South-Western, Shrewsbury and Birmingham, South-
Eastern, and York and North Midland have been in
most favour. The foreign Shares are buoyant, and West
Flanders in re quest.

The following is an extract from a note, dated the
11th instant, received from the secretary of the Dublin
and Drogheda:—
. In future the production at the office of the sealed
certificates will not be rf quired; but a certificate of re-
gistry will be handed to the transferee.
" Where a certificate of registry has been issued, no
second certificate of registry will be granted, unless a
transfer deed for the shares be presented at the office,
together with the former certificate of registry. The
transfer fee is 2s. 6d. for each deed."

Mr. Bunn, in giving his literary and dramatic
monologue, at the Southwark Literary Institution, said
he would aftbrd his auditory a sample of the State pa-
tronage which was awarded to the stage and to stage
players in the time of Henry VII. Amongst the records
kept in the Chapter House in Westminster were the fol-
lowing entries as having been made by that monarch:
" To Newark, for making a ballad, ld. ; to a Welshman for
making a rhyme, 2d. ; to a tumbler on the rope, 3s. 4d.;
to a young maiden for' dauncing,' IV. a night (a sum equal
to lOU of the present money) ; for a poet, 6s. Bd. ; and
to my Lord Oxon, for being jocular, 3s. 4d.; and 2s. 2d: a
piece to minstrels from France, including their travelling
expenses."

FIRE AT EDMONTON.—EarIy yesterday (Sunday)
morning a fire broke out at the Angel Inn, at Edmonton.
From inquiry made on the premises it appears that the
policeman' on passing the building shortly after three o'clock,
discovered a blaze in the assembly-room, which spread with
such rapidity as to cause, in three hours, the entire destruc-
tion of that noble building. The building is insured in the
Sun, and the contents in the Phcenix. The cause of the fire
is uanown.
