upon papers with patterns wrought in gold or silver, are in-
creased from BA. 45kr. to 1711. 30kr. a quintal. Ribbons of
half silk, which now pay an entrance duty of 9611. 15kr. a
quintal, will henceforth pay 19211. 30 kr., being the same as that
put upon silk goods in general. The most important of the new
duties are those put upon woollen goods. Tissues made of pure
wool, or other materials except silk, as printed goods of every
description not fulled, goods if they are figured, tissues em-
broidered or sprigged, shawls with borders sewn on to them, and
with patterns, articles of gold, silver, and other laces, and buttons
and embroidery which are not connected with works in Iron, glass,
wood, leather, brass, or steel, will pay 87fl. 30kr. the quintal;
cloths and other woollen stuffs fulled, felt not printed, hosiery, and
all other goods not fulled and without patterns, are to pay 528.
30kr. a quintal; carpets 3511: the quintal. Reductions of, or total ex-
emptions from, duty, are granted to several raw materials imported
for consumption in the countries of the Zollverein. Thus sul-
phur, which has hitherto paid a duty of HILL a quintal, aloes and
moss, which have paid 521 kr., gall.nuts, turmeric, and sumach,
which have paid 171 kr., have these entrance duties suppressed,
and the existing export duties are increased. The entrance duties
upon raw caoutchouc, arid every species of resin, are reduced from
521 kr. to 17i kr. the quintal. A very important concession has
been made in the transit of merchandise through the south-western
countries of the•Zoilverein, so that, for all those on the left bank
of the Oder, the general transit duties are reduced from 52} kr.
to 35 kr. the quintal. At the same time, all the special duties
upon wool and cotton, and woollen and cotton and other tisanes,
are suppressed."
A Berlin letter of the Ist says :—" The new tariff of the Ger-
man Customs' Union makes no change in the duties in the different
kinds of thread, but the Prussian Government states that the
question of change is merely postponed.".l

According to a letter from Rome of the 30th ult., the
Emperor Niel-to Las will arrive thither on the 18th or 19th
of the present month, and return to his dominions by Flo-
rence. On the 31st of October the Grand Duchess of Tus-
CANY was delivered of a Princess.

The Funds rose on the Paris Bourse in consequence of the
firmness of the London market on Saturday.

GRAND ECLIPSE OF TILE MOON.—On the 13th instant
(Thursday) the last eclipse of this year will take place.
It will be visible in London during the whole period, and
should the weather prove favourable, the sight will be ex-
tremely interesting. According to some almanacs it begins
at 911. 57m., and ends at 311. 41m. on Friday morning, the
middle being about half-an-hour past midnight. To persons
however viewing it with the naked eye the contact will not
be observed till about eleven o'clock, and the eclipse appa-
rently terminate at half-past two. Nine-tenths of the moon's
surface will be immersed in the earth's shadow, or reckoning
the diameter of the moon 1, the portion eclipsed is equal
to 0919.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 5,000 bales,
at steady prices; 1,500 bales were on speculation.—There
was not a large business done in Shares, but a better feeling
prevailed in the market.
It is satisfactory to find that the great project of an exten-
sive cultivation of the tea plant in the more northern part
of tl:e East Indies is likely to be most successfully carried out.
In the Report of the Directors of the Assam Company, made
yesterday at a special meeting of the Proprietors, it was an-
nounced that the crop of this year will be very nearly
188,0001bs. But for the drought that has prevailed in Assam
the yield would have been much more consider-
able, and fully up to the estimate made two or
three years since. It is of importance, too, as establishing
the fact that good teas can be produced in Assam, to state
that some hundreds of chests have been taken freely by the
trade at from 2s. 6d. to 3s. per lb. ex- duty. The Directors
have declared a dividend of 108. per share, after reserving
sufficient assets to pay all the cost of production of 1846,
home expences, and leaving a considerable surplus. The
time may not be far distant when the people of the United
Kingdom may become independent of China, that is for
supplies of this article of consumption. The report to the
special meeting held yesterday will be found in another part
of The Sun.
The New Tariff is producing some rare imports. For in-
stance, there were put up at public sale thirty baskets of
China Vegetable, or Tree Tallow, and thirty bales of China
Hemp, just received from Shangliae.
The. English Securities do not open quite so firm as yes-
terday morning, Consols being 95% to 96% for present
transfer and the Account. The premium on Exchequer-bills
has been rather fluctuating—v.z., from 28s. to 225. Bank
Stock has been at 200 to 201%. The New Three-and-a-
Quarter per Cents. have realised 96% to 9714. Long An-
nuities are 10 7-16 to 10 9-16.
The Foreign Market has also slightly receded. Spanish
Five per Cents. have been at 28%, and the Three per Cents.
at 37% Portuguese Converted are 55% to 56%. Mexi-
can Stock has ranged from 30%. Belgian Four and-a-Half
per Cents. have been 95 to 95%; and Dutch Two-and- a-
Half per Cents. 591/2 to 60.
The Share Market is without any material alteration.
