MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS'
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were°.
timated at 6,000 bales, of which 500 American were
taken for export, and 500 on speculation. The saes
comprised 5,000 American, 200 Pernam and Maranhao
at 84d. to Fit., 150 Bahia at Bid. to 84d., 200 EgYPtien
at Std. to 94d., 300 Surat at 54d. to 51d., and 60 Sea
Island at ls. 3d. to ls. sd. per lb. The market WO
lively, and prices bad an upward tendency.—Railway
Shares were in good demand at higher prices.
The Grain Market has been steady to-day for Wheat.
The Royal Mail steamer Niagara has arrived off
Liverpool, but we have no advices in town, and the let-
ters will not be delivered until to-morrow.
A direct arrival from Adelaide, South Australia, fur-
Dishes letters of October, but we have had later dates by
the Overland Mail.
Accounts from France state that the planting of to
bacco is this year to be commenced in five of the cora'
munes of the Cantons of Montreuil and Campagne.
The state of political affairs in France is naturaM
exciting considerable interest, and it is allowed tbsi
solution of the existing difficulties may be extremelY.,dif'
ficult. In its operations upon the English Money said::
ket this perplexed quarrel is not exercising any yen./
decided influence, but should the breach widen to an ex
tent that will undermine confidence in France, and re'
strict commerce, the surplus assets of capitalists on the
other side may again be forwarded to London for 51031
or investment.
The English Stock Market is very inactive, and the
quotations are nominally about the same as they closed
last week, or perhaps scarcely so good. Consols The
bar
brought 96i for Transfer, and 96i for Account.
New Three-and-a-Quarter per Genus. are 98j to 99, ac
the Three per Cents. 971 a. Exchrquer-bills have
been steady at 575. to 60s. premium. East India Bond`
are 68s. premium. Nothing has been done either
Bank or India Stocks. South Sea Old Annuities have
realised 96k. The tranquillity pervading the market
appears to be due to the uncertainty as to the
issue of the present ministerial crisis in France',
and to the greater attraction offered by the better nlas°
of railway shares, now Consols rule comparativell
high.
There have been isolated bargains in the Foreign 0307
ket, but no general activity is observable. The price:
are firm, particularly fur Spanish, which have risen to
18 and 184 for the Five per Cents., and to 381 for th
Three per Cents. Mexican Bonds have realised 33i et
div. Chilian Six per Cents. have been done at 105
Brazilian Old Bonds at 893, and Venezuela deferred as
1 Russian Four-and-a-flaff per Cents. have beed
quoted 961 and 97, and Dutch Four per Cents. 91.
The following note has been received from tui;
secretary of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton
Railway beg
" In reply to your letter of yesterday's date, -
to inform you that shareholders registered on the 16ci
inst. will be at liberty to renounce their prefers T!
shares in favour of their transferees, who may be re:,
gistered by the 28th inst., and probably in
others, if there should be a surplus of new shares &W
allotting those which may be applied for by the re-
gistered proprietors"
The Railway Market does not support the f.tr
tavour,.n
rise of Saturday, but there is still a much larger bai_
ness doing than of late, and the rise of the last Idol
days has net been wholly lost. South-Western, Gee la
Northern, Oxford and Wolverhampton, have g Bpd
firm. Great Western and North Western are toler
firm. Midland have been cheaper, and also York toa,
Berwick, and South-Eastern. ilackwall, Brig
h
Eastern Counties, and Cale.tonian, were at about forte
values. The Foreign lines have been in some request'.
Joint-stock Bank Shares are in favour.

'QUEEN'S BENC4.—(THIS DAY.)
(Stain--1? •
„.! In Banco, before Lord CAMPBELL and Justices
rA.TTESON, COLERIDGE, and WIGHTMAN.)
IRE L&TE QUEEN DOWAGER'S ANNUITY.
TRE QUEEN V. THE LORDS OF THE TREASURY.—
MANDAMUS.
The
liCit ATTORNEY-GENERAL (with whom were the So-
or-General and Mr. Welsby) said he had to show
43,‘"se against a rule recently obtained at the instance of
Ice executors of her late Majesty the Queen Dowager,
toCalling upon the Lords Commissioners of the Treasury
show cause why a mandamus should not issue com-
manding them to pay to such executors the proportion-
ate part of her late Majesty's annuity of 100,000/., due
to her at the time of her decease, she having died in the
middle of a quarter in respect of which such annuity
tors Payable. The claim that was made by the execu-
rB of her late Majesty the Queen Dowager
"i la for a proportionate part of the annuity due
tot the Queen Dowager, in respect of that interval of
which she survived after the payment of the last
r`lailer was made. The question, undoubtedly, would
'end on the construction to be given to the statute Ist
rd 2d William IV., entitled "An Act for enabling his
„cajestY to make provision to support the royal dignity
-' the Queen, in case she should survive his Majesty."
With that view his Majesty was empowered by that Act
t,4) grunt to the Queen Dowager an annuity of 100,0002,
t 0 commence and take effect immediately from and
after the decease of his Majesty, and continue from
thenceforth forand during thenatural life of her Majesty,
and shall be paid and payable out of the Consolidated
Fund of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ire-
!Fla quarterly, on the 31st March, 30th June, 30th
oPpttreber, and the 31st December, by equal portions,
the first payment to be made on such of the said days
a
shall first happen after the decease of his Majesty. e
