MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO 0 CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated
at 3,500 bales, comprising 2,500 American, 200 Pernam and
Maranham, at Bd. to Bid.; 250 Egyptian, at 71d. to 94-d. ; 500
Surat, at 4id. to sid. ; and 60 Sea Islands, at Is. lid. to
Is. 2d. per lb. The market was flat, at previous rates.
Railway Shares ware animated, and the market closed very
firmly.

The Timber and Coffee interests are those only in the com-
mercial world who benefit by th(3 proposed changes of duty,
and, accordingly, other articles will be left to the ordinary
influence of supply and demand. The consumption of Sugar,
however, may increase if Coffee gets into favour, and that of
Tea decrease.

Regarding the inter-Oceanic., Canal, the accounts by the
American mail are very satiaf•actory. It would appear that
four distinct surveys of diffe'.ent routes had been made by
the corps of engineers in t-ae employ of the company, and
that the last one, whiezb has been determined on by the
company, offers every ra cility for the construction of a grand
ship canal, at an expen'se far less than was anticipated when
the company commr.rnced operations. According to the
terms of agreement entered into with the chief engineer,
Oscar W. Childs, well known by the New York community
for his connexion, in his professional capacity, with some of
the great internal improvements of the state, that gentleman,
with a corps of able assistants, sailed from the city named in
July last, and immediatc,ly on his arrival in Nicaragua en-
tered upon the duties en trusted to him. The result is that
the survey has been co•.npleted, an excellent route decided
upon, and in a short time the work of the digging will be
commenced, if indeed it has not been began already. It was
first supposed that the terminus of the ship canal would be
at Realejo ; but a shorter, a better, and a less expensive
route has been decided upon.
This company are engaged in another project, which,
like the other, is of great importance, especially
to the United States. They are constructing a com-
munication between the Atlantic and the Pacific, for the
transportation of passengers, via the San Juan River and
Lake Nicaragua, to the Pacific. The San Juan is obstructed
by rapids and rocks, which up to this time have rendered it
unnavigable. It has been ascertained, however, that the
rocks can be removed at a comparatively trifling expense,
and that the rapids can be overcome by the steamboats capa-
ble of running at a speed of 12 miles an hour. A competent
engineer has been recently engaged to remove the rocks by
blasting, and it is expected that in a short time he will have
succeeded in removing them. Steamers are ready, or
nearly so, to be placed on that river and on the lake, as well
as between the terminus on the Pacific and San Francisco.
Within sixty days the company would be prepared to con-
tract for the conveyance of passengers between .New York
and San Francisco, by this new route.
At Amsterdam, on the 16th, Stocks were buoyant. Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 57 9-16ths. Spanish Bonds
were in request.
In the Frankfort market, on the 15th inst., Austrian
Metallics were 7514 ; and Spanish Three per Cents., 33 1-16th

There has been a very flat market again for Public Securi-
ties, and the transactions have been all in the direction of
sales, the idea being snore general that the Bank of England
may possibly advance its rate of discount on Thursday. We
scarcely anticipate this at. present, but it is positive that
money has become more hl demand in the Stock Exchange,
and probable that the chief cause is the necessity of provid-
ing the means of taking up Railway Shares. The provincial
bankers are stated to be acting cautiously, as
it appears the Bank of England is suspicious
that accommodation bills are circulating too freely
in aid of railway speculations. As far as com-
mercial business is concerned, we do not believe it has
been so far extended as to cause any immediate ex-
tension of the demand for cash, but now the Budget is an-
nounced greater activity may ensue. Exchequer-bills
have further declined, and are 495. to .23. premium. East
India Bonds have been 60s. to 625. premium. The New
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have realized 98.3,i to
and the Three per Cents. 96% to 97%. Consols opened
this morning at 96L, 1.4 for Transfer, but have rallied
since to 96L4 A. For Time they are 95A, %. The
Budget has not produced any' sensible effect, but there
is of course satisfaction expressed that the Chancellor of
the Exchequer means still t'o favour the moneyed interest
by buying up the debt. rile views of fundholders and the
industrous classes, as observed yesterday under this head,
are frequently opposed, And in this case will probably be so
again.

The Foreign investments partake of the flatness of Con-
sols. Spanish Five per Cents. have been 19% 3/4, and the
Three per Cents. a 3/4 to 38. Portuguese Four per Cents.
are 331/2. Mexi‘.:an Bonds have been 33 to Vs, and Buenos
Ayres, 55. Equ vior Stock is at 3%. Dutch Four per Cents.
are 91%.
Railway Shares have gone back a little, and business is
more restrict ed, though still comparatively good.
