NEW THEATRE IN SHOREDITCH.—Within the last
few days several houses in High•street, Shoreditch, im-
mediately opposite the terminus of the Eastern Counties
Railway, have been pulled down for the construction of
a spacious theatre, which will be under the direction
of Mr. Nelson Lee, at present manager of the Pavilion
Theatre. A circus of 120 feet in circumference is to be
formed, and the stage will be larger than any in London,
not even excepting those of the patent theatres. The
works have already commenced, and the theatre is ex-
pected to be ready early in the spring of the, next year.
The Eastern Counties Company, we find, intend to
start, on Monday next, a train composed of third•class
carriages only, to leave London early in the morning
for Colchester, and return to town late in the evening,
for the poorer classes, who, in pursuance of the recent I
Act of Parliament, are to be charged only one penny per
mile. A similar train will traverse the Cambridge line
daily.--Chilmiford Chrogick. I

MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 6,000
bales, all but 300 for export, being to the trade.—Shares
were steady, and a fair business was transacted. Cale-

The contents of the new Brazilian Treaty, as com-
municated by the packet just received from Rio, are
considered by the merchants of the City as not being
quite so objectionable as the outlines received a few days
back. We believe there is no question but that the
terms of the new tariff will be carried out, but as to the
Treaty, not a word is said about the completion of
the new Commercial Treaty between this country and the
Emperor of the Brazils. No doubt, however, the new
special Envoy, the Marquis of Abrontes, who has just
arrived, is commissioned with full power to carry out the
intentions of the Ministry at Rio Janerio, in this and
other respects. The date of the commercial letters re-
ceived from Rio are not later than those before received.
The arrivals this morning are but few, and the ad-
vices are destitute of news of interest.
This is the pay•day in the Consol market. The losses
have been liquidated without any apparent difficulty.
Consols for Money have receded from loci to 1004, and
for the Account to 1008. We hear that capital is be-
coming more and more in request for mercantile
purposes. It could not be better employed, as specu-
lation in produce of all kinds is at present car-
ried on to a very small amount. The great
bulk of the public and private sales for some time past
have been for bona fide consumption. The rate of in-
terest has advanced a shade. The New Three-and-a-
Quarter per Cents. have been firm at 1021. Exchequer
Bills are quoted at 73 to 75 premium. Bank Stock at
206, and India Stock at 95 premium. The Commis-
sioners took 10,0001. Consols at 1008 to-day.
Spanish Bonds have been pretty steady to-day at 3518
for the Three per Cents., and 248 4 for the Consols.
The decree for funding the floating debt of Spain ought
to have had a contrary effect, for most unquestionably
the Spanish Minister of Finance, whoever he may be,
will meet the demands of the home creditors ere the de-
mands of foreigners will be thought of. Dutch Stock
has advanced ; Portuguese, Austrian, and Russian Bonds
have been in request ; Mexican Five per Cents. are at
341 ; Brazilian Five per Cents. remain at 85/.
A slight improvement is noticed in some of the Rail-
way Shares this morning. The Great Western Fifths
have realised 144 to 1 prem. ; the Manchester and Leeds,
81 to 83 prem. ; the Manchester and Birmingham, 12
prom. ; the Boulogne and Amiens, 3 prem. ; and the
Paris and Orleans 20 prem. The Australasian Bank
Shares are at 8 prem.
