MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were
5,000 bales, including 1,000 American for export. The
market was quiet and steady at previous rates.—Railway
shares were quiet.

The steamer with the West India and Mexican mails
has arrived, and the accounts she brings from onr colo-
nial possessions are, in respect to the weather, tolerably
satisfactory. The cholera, however, still prevailed in
parts of Jamaica. The wet weather was one cause of
this, since experienced planters had declared that for
many years past the island has not been favoured with
such a favourable season as the last few weeks were the
harbingers of. All united, however, in regretting the
scarcity of labour. The ship Brandon had arrived at
Port Royal with 259 Africans from the depot at Sierra
Leone, having been captured from a French slaver.
They are described as being young and healthy. More
were expected, and the colony could readily absorb
twenty thousand such. The term of contract was for
one year only. Many of the Coolies, having served
their five years, were applyiog for their return passage
to India, and, no doubt, would induce others to come to
the colonies. The Sugar and Rum crops of the present
year have realised in Jamaica the expectations formed
while they were yet on the ground. Shipping to the
m3ther country was in great demand, the ve,lels in port
being totally inadequate for the produce made. Unless
fresh bottoms arrived, a large proportion of the crop
would inevitably lie over.
The Assembly of Trinidad has passed an ordinance
for encouraging immigration from the United States of
America and the British North American provinces of
labourers of African descent.

The Sugar crop of Barbadoes is estimated at 35,000
hogsheads.
In Demerara the determination of the London direc-
tors of the railway, not to to construct it at present be•
fond the village of Victoria, bed caused great dissatis-
faction. The company pleads want of means at present.
The Court of Policy had passed a resolution calling
upon the local board not to abdicate their funcliona, nor
consent to the appropriation of such part of the loan as
may still remain unexpended to any other object than
that of defraying the cost of construction of the line of
railway between the village of Victoria and the village
of Mahaica. Retrenchment was being perseveringly
earried out in Demerara. The Gazette says, that—
" Although the report (from the Committee of Ways
and Means) has not yet been published, we are enabled
to state that it recommends, in conformity with the
views expressed by his Excellency Governor Barkly
in his speech on the opening of the com-
bined session, extensive reductions in the general
taxation of the colony. The income-tax, never
a very lucrative source of revenue with us, because
evaded by a great number of persons who ought to have
contributed to it, is to be entirely abolished. A reduc-
tion is also to be effected in the Produce Tax. The
planters are to be exempted from the payment of duty
on all such portions of their produce as are consumed
within the colony; and on the remainder, the duty is to
be paid from time to time, in the form of an Export
Tax, according as produce is shipped. A bonus is to
be conferred on the shipping interest by lowering the
Tonnage Duties; and sweeping reductions are to be
effected in the Tariff of Import Duties, especially on
those articles most extensively consumed; as, for in-
stance, flour, rice, candles, soap, beef, pork, fish, and
cattle—of which latter large importations are constantly
taking place from the Oronoque, where cattle may be
raised as cheap as in any part of the world."
The advioes from Guatemala appear to be more en-
couraging. Peace with San Salvador and Honduras was
likely to be permanently secured, and public works were
rapidly progressing. Particular attention was paid to
the roads.

The reports from the gold mines of Buenaventura,
about forty miles from Panama, are very encouraging.
About 350 persons were working them, and the average
yield is said to be two to three ounces per d,em, but pro•
visions were so enormously high as to outweigh nearly
all the advantages. . . _

The flarobur'g' h mail brings the rate of exchange on
London rather higher, viz., 13.3.

New Z44leied leiters of March 15 add nothing import-
ant to our previous intelligence.

The North American mail has not yet arrived.

SsizußE OF COLLEGE PLATE
, TOE POOE•EATES.--..
The parish officers of St. Aldate s, Oxford, in pursuance of a
distress warrant granted by one of the city magistrates,
made a seizure on Friday of two silver teapots, the property
of the Master and Fellows of Pembroke College, who had
refused to contribute the sum of 111, charged upon the co'-
lege, towards the support of the poor. The ground of refusal
for paying the rate is that the college is extra-parochial.
A similar seizure was made a short time si,,ce of the plate
belonging to New Inn Hall, but it was shortly afterwards
redeemed by the Rev. ,•r. Wellesley (principal of the hall).
Subsequently, notice of action for an illegal distress w
served upon the parish officers of St. Peter-le-Bailey, whore
the hall is situated. It is expected in the present case teat
the college authorities will adopt similar proceedings. The
rate-payers are determined to try the question as to the lia-
bility of the colleges to help to support the poor of OxtOrd;

MAR,KET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-MONDAY.

- - - - - -
Most of the country markets held on Saturday, were
well supplied with Wheat, for which, the demand ruled
heavy, at a decline in the quotations of from is to 2s
per quarter. All kinds of foreign Wheat were offering
at a reduction of fully is per quarter, without leading to
much business. There was less inquiry for Barley and
Malt, but no decline took place in prices. Oats were 6d
to is per quarter lower ; whilst most other articles were
easier to purchase.
The advices from France state that the demand for
Flour, for shipment to the United Kingdom, has fallen
off, and that prices have a downward tendency. In the
Baltic and Blick Sea ports, the quotations of Wheat are
relatively higher than here. The Corn-shipping trade
in the United States has ruled heavy.
Up to our market last week, the arrivals of English
Grain were small. From abroad, we received 22,917
quarters of Wheat, 2,170 Barley, 51,132 Oats, 1,673
Peas, 2,230 Linseed, 32 sundry seeds, and 3,849 sacks
of Flour.

Fresh up to this morning's market the arrivals of
Wheat coastwise from Essex were comparatively small;
but those from Kent were tolerably good, and in excel-
lent condition. By land carriage from Norfolk, Suffolk,
Cambridgeshire, &c., the receipts were very moderate.
Notwithstanding that a portion of last week's supply
was on offer the show of samples of both Red and Whits
was very moderate. Owing, however, to the favourable
accounts in reference to the growing crops, and the pres-
sure of foreign Flour, the demand for all kinds of
English Wheat ruled heavy, at a decdne in the prices
obtained on Monday last of is per quarter, and a total
clearance was not effected.

The amount of business doing for shipment from the
east coast was small, arising from the offers being too
high for this market.
With foreign Wheat—although several of the cargoes
reported last week have gone direct to millers—we were
well supplied. For all kinds, the inquiry was heavy, and
the currencies were is per quarter lower than last
week.

Very little was doing in floating eargoe3. During the
last few days, the arrivals off Falmouth have been small.

No English Barley at market, and the Eupply of
foreign was limited. The trade was in a very inactive
state, yet we have no change to notice in the qlotations.
Malt—the supply cf which was moderate—moved off
slowly, at late rates.
Toe supply of Oats being considerably in excess of the
demand, the truth) was heavy, at an abatement of fully
Is per quarter. In Beans next to bottling was doing.
Prices gave way quite is per quarter. The sale for Peas
was heavy, and late rates were with difficulty supported.
Floating cargo's of Indian corn were is to 2s lower to
purchase. A imoderate business was doing in Flour, at
tate rates. The top, or nominal price of the best Town-
made was 38; F er 2801bs.

With best English and forcigu Beasts our market to-day
was seasonably well supplied, both as to number and
quality. Notwithstanding that the attendance of both
own and country buyers was but moderate, the Beef
irale—as the supplies of Meat on offer in Newgate and
Lradenhall were trifling—ruled steady, and in some
instances prices were a shade higher than on Mon.
day ls,t, the beat Scots selling at 3s 8d per Whs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received 1,850 Scots, fierefords, Short-horns, &c ; from
other prts of England 400 of various kinds; and from
Scotland 80 horned and polled Scots. Although the
numbers of Sheep were on the increase, and in excellent
condition, the demand for that description of stock was
somewhat active, at fully Friday's advance in the quo-
tations, the primest old Downs selling freely at 4s per
81bs. For Lambs we had an improved inquiry, and last
week's currencies were well supported in every instance.
Calves, the supply of which was moderate, moved off
steadily; but we have no improvement to notice in their
value. In Pigs next to nothing well doing, at late rates.

stvidy business has been doing, at very full prices. The
arrivals fr,,ni the country have been small; yet a large
quantity of meat has been rendered unfit for consump-
