MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS'
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 8,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were
taken for export and 1,000 on speculation. The sales
comprised 7,000 American, 200 Percent and Maranhao),
at 64d. to 7id.; 100 Bahia, at qd. to eid.; 200
Egyptian, at 64d. to 74d.; and 300 Surat, at 3id. to 44d.
per lb. The market closed firmly.-Railway Shares
were very flat.
The failure of Mr. R. E. Hyde, of Liverpool, for
a 200,0001. to 300,0001., has been announced, and it is
feared other suspensions will follow, although a gout'
dividend is expected from that gentleman's estate.
At Hamburgh last Friday the rate of Exchange 051
London was 13 34. Bills on London were more plen-
tiful. Coffee was dearer and Grain firm.
In the Amsterdam Bourse on the 7th instant business
DK was dull in home Funds. Peruvian Bonds, however,
2.8 were in request and dearer.
The Jamaica accounts state that on the north aide the
weather was so dry that the crops of the present and next
year are likely to be materially injured. On some pro-
perties it was difficult to procure water for the stock, the
pastures were literally parched, and the cane fields are
represented as being in a deplorable condition. It was
hoped that in a few days the earth would be refreshed
with genial showers. In Falmouth the weather was
very oppressive, and there was disagreable malaria from
surrounding marshes. The Customs' Tonnage Bill had
passed, the duty upon shipping imposed by this Act being
continued at 2s. 6d. per ton until October 10, after which
date it will be reduced to 2s. There will then be ft
curtailment of salaries. There is no further mention of
cholera in the north side papers. There had been some
Baptist gatherings, at which resolutions were passed
condemnatory of thfe interference of the State in the
education of the people.
The Jamaica Morning Journal states;-" A machine
for ginning cotton, certainly of extreme simplicity of
dia. construction, and apparently of sufficient strength to
Ms' wear well, was exb ibited at our office yesterday, and
gave general satisfaction. It is of a kind, especially
intended for the .use of small settlers, and is
every point of vilew seems, as far as we can
judge, well calcu lated for that purpose. Be-
sides the two importtint advantages to which we have
already referred, the method of working it is so easy
that an intelligent child of eight or nine years of age
would find no difficulty in using it. In fact, a child of
somewhere about that age, and who, we know, bad
never previously, seen it, did gin a little cotton with it
in our presence yesterday. Its probable cost will place
it within the reach of all. It occupies as little room, and
is quite as portable as a common small table; and, above'
all, it does not break the seed, or in the least in-
jure the staple of the Cotton. The quantity of Cotton
that may be ginned with this machine in a day, by one
person, is said to be about ten pounds-a small quan-
tity, to be sure, where the crop is to be counted by New
Orleans bales, but a. very fairly remunerative one, at its
price, for the advantage which it gives over the amount
that could be picked by hand in a day. But we see no
obstacle to its admitting, even in its present shape, of a
second feeder.
The following were the receipts arising from Customs,
Public Works, and Excise for the quarter ended the:3oth
