MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 5,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were
taken for export. The market was well supplied, and
closed heavily.—ln Railway Shares only a limited busi-
ness was done at lower prices.
The new Act to amend the Passengers Act of 1849,
extends the power of the Colonial Land and Emigra-
tion Commissioners so as to enable them to fix
different lengths of voyage for steam and sailing
vessels, according as they may think reasonable. Power is
likewise given to substitute different dietary, and to give
authority to the master of the ship for that purpose.
Passenger ships putting into a port damaged are not to
proceed without a certificate of fitness. Poe ers aro also
given to a greater extent to the Governors of the
colonies, and the Governor-General of India, to declare
the rule of computation of the length of any voyage,
and to substitute different articles of food to those
named in the Act. Perhaps the most important clause
in the Act is that which requires a bond to be given by
masters of British and foreign passenger ships going to
any of our possessions with emigrants, for the latter,
without some proviso of this kind, would be diffi-
cult to punish, being protected by their flag.
It would be well indeed if we could secure
some more efficient control over ships taking emigrants
to foreign parts as well as our own colonies—the United
States, for example—and if the Government of that
republic would co-operate, this could easily be
done. Recent examples have shown that oven
on board certain of the American liners from
Liverpool to New York there has been maltreat.
went and violation of engagements entered into.
In the case of ships proceeding to our own colonies and
giving a bond, we can of course act differently, and the
new measure provides that " before any passenger ship
shall clear out or proceed on any voyage to which the
said Act shall extend, the owner or charterer, or, in
the event of the absence of such owner or charterer, one
good and sufficient person on his behalf, to be ap-
proved by the chief officer of Customs at the port
of clearance, shall, with the master of the said ship, in
lieu of the bond required by the forty-third section of
the said Act, enter into a joint and several bond, in the
sum of one thousand pounds, to her Majesty, her heirs
and successors, according to the form contained
in schedule (A) hereto annexed, the condition
of which bond shall be, that the said ship is
in all respects seaworthy, and that all and every
the requirements of the said Act and of
this Act, and of the said Commissioners acting in the
manner prescribed by the said Act, and of any order
which may at the date of such bond have been passed
by her Majesty in Council in virtue of the said Act,
shall in all respects be well and truly fulfilled and per-
formed, and, in the case of any foreign passenger ship
shall proceed to any of her Majesty's possessions abroad,
that the master thereof shall submit himself in
like manner as a British subject, being the
master of a British passenger ship, to the
jurisdiction of such courts and magistrates
in her Majesty's possessions abroad as are by the said
Act empowered to adjudicate on offences committed
against the said Act, and, moreover, that the master,
whether of a British or foreign passenger ship, shall
well and truly pay all penalties, fines, and forfeitures
which he may be adjudged to pay, either in the United
Kingdom or by any such tribunal abroad, for or in re-
spect of the breach or non-performance of any of the re-
quirements of the said Act, provided always that such
bond shall not be liable to stamp duty, and shall be exe-
cuted in duplicate."
A counterpart of the bond is to be certified and sent
to the colony to which the ship is bound, and is to be
received in evidence without further proof of execution,
because such a course would inevitably lead to delay,
and a reference home, and possibly to the defeat of justice.
The Amsterdam Stock Market on the 24th inst. was
without change. In Russian, Austrian, and Mexica❑
Stocks not much was done. _ _ _

The English Stock Market is firmer, but there has
not been a large amount of business doing. The ad-
vices from Paris still dwell upon the revision of the Con-
stitudon ; but it is as difficult as ever to form an opinion
as to the r ,suit. Consols have been at an advance of
viz., to 963/4 to 8. The New Three-and-a Quarter per
Cents. have been marked 98/ e ; and the Three
per Cents. 97-k to 1. Bank stock has been steady at
212/. The premium on Exchequer-bills continues at
48s. to 465.
Consols now are 9613- /. Owing to the receipt of higher
prices from Madrid, Spanish Bonds have improved. The
Five per Cents. have been 20i and the Passive 58 to
6. Mexican Stock is neglected at 348 to Brazilian
New Bonds have been 86/ to 88. Russian Five per
Cr.nts. have been marked 1131, French Five per
Cents. 92 50, with the Exchange at 25 5, and
Belgian Four-end-a-Half per Cents., 928 to 938; Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 601 to i; and Danish Five
per Cents., 104. Portuguese Four per Cents. have been
at 33 to 34.
The arrangements for the carrying ever of shares
and the settlement of to-morrow's account have been
in progress and have resulted in a further decline.
The traffic returns continue good, but the speculators
are decidedly against the market, and the paucity of real
investments gives them temporarily much power. This
morning North- Western have been almost as low as
during the worst period of the recent panic. French
Shares are flatter also.
