MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS,
CITY, THURSDAY EVENING.

The Public Securities left off with a good appear-
ance this afternoon, and Consols, both for Money and
Time, were 94* to 941 ; Exchequer Bills realised
56 to 68 premium, and India Bonds at 51 to 53
premium. The other Stock underwent no alteration.
In Spanish Bonds the improvement was maintained
up to the close of business, the Actives being marked
18*, and the Three per Cents. 224 f. Mexican were
done at 33 ; Colombian, 211 ' • Chillian, 89 to 91, and
Brazilian, 651. Portuguese Converted brought 32f ;
Russian, 113, and Dutch New Fives, 99f.
No animation was exhibited in Shares, and the
quotations were heavy, except for Birmingham,
which touched 931 and 94 premium. Croydon were
41 discount. In Brighton Railway there was scarcely
a bargain. Great Western were 18f premium. An-
glo-Mexican Mint Shares were 2* premium.
The large amount of 1,700,000 dollars in bullion,
brought by the Curacoa, from Rio Janeiro, is ex-
pected to have a favourable effect upon the foreign ex-
changes here, as we can afford to send some of it
abroad.

(From The Sun of Last Night.)

The Cotton Market at Liverpooryesterday was
rather more animated. Sales, 6,000 bales, of which
1,200 were Maranham. Prices were steady.—Rail-
way Shares were not so good. Bristol and Exeter
brought 45 ; Great Western Half, 61 ; Liverpool and
Manchester, Quarter, 43i ; North Midland, 60 ; and
Paris and Rouen, 22g.
The Britannia, from Boston and Halifax, brings
advices to the 3d inst. From Canada the accounts
reach to the 29th ult. The letters and papers re-
ceived in the City, in referring to commercial matters,
do not notice generally any particular change or im-
provement. A moderate business was doing in many
articles of absolute necessity, but not an
extensive one, and it is given as a satisfactory indi-
cation of a disposition on the part of the people to re-
turn to more steady and honest courses, after so
much bank swindling and prosperity inflation, that
articles of luxury had a very indifferent sale.
Money was plentiful, and it was difficult to
find safe and at the same time profitable
employment for it. At Philadelphia and New Orleans
business was dull, and Flour and Wheat, owing
to the abundant crops, were declining all over
the Union. Complaints were made of the want of
promptitude exhibited by the dealers in the West in
making remittances, and which appears to arise from
the scarcity of money in that direction (more likely
the want of credit and confidence, we should say),
and the low prices of produce.
We are glad to find that the Americans have re-
ceived full instructions from their English corre-
spondents for the proper curing and packing of their
salted meats, so as to adapt them to the tastes of con-
sumers in this country ; and if Brother Jonathan will
but favour us with a little of his Cincinnati pork and
New Orleans cotton, in part payment of the heavy
sums he owes us, he will rise considerably in the
estimation of honest men.

The accounts from Canada furniih a copy of the
Act passed for the regulation of the lumber trade,
and which appeared to be considered prejudicial.
The further stoppage of one or two establishments in
Montreal, but not for large amounts, and being houses
expected to go for some time past, is announced
in the letters received to-day. A comparative state-
ment of arrivals, tonnage and passengers at Quebec
to the 28th Oct. of the present year as compared with
1841, exhibits the immense falling off this year of 389
vessels and 117,863 tons, although the passengers
show an increase of 16,109 persons, or to 44,388.
The weather was fine, and the fall ploughing was
carried on with vigour. Mr. Wakefield was can-
vassitig for the representation of Beauharnais.
The latest sales of flour at Montreal were at 245.
cash, for America, being a shade higher. Mess Pork
was rather heavier of sale.

In the English funds a fah- amount of business has
been transacted. Consols have been supported at 94
to 94* 4 for Money, and 94* for' the 24th instant,
being so far something like a baccadation. Exchequer.
Bills are lower, having been marked 56 to 58 pre-
mium. Bank Stock is offered at 169 and 170, and
the heavy investments keep at their previous rates.
Foreign Securities are neglected, except Spa-
nish, which have attracted the attention of
some of the speculators, and have been got up
to 181 j- for the Five per Cents., and to 22i
and 221 for the Three per Cents. In South Ameri-
can Stocks the transactions are few. Mexican are
dull at 33 to *, and Colombian at 21t. Dutch Five
per Cents. are 1001 to 101.

There is no improvement in Railway Shares, which
here, as at Liverpool, are not in demand. Bir-
mingham and Derby are 60 • Eastern Com*,
ties, 14i ; Edinburgh and Glasgow 21 ; and
South Eastern, 271 discount. IsTeweastle and
Darlington Junction have been done at 1
prem.; South Western at 18* prem.; and Great
Western at 18i prem. ; Union of London Bank
Shares are par to* prem.
MANCHESTER STOCK EXCHANGE, Nov. 16.—We
have had a dull market to-day, and very little busi-
ness has been done. Our only quotations are—Man-

their opponents by three to one, tut n

He served early in France, and afterwards
joined the Mexicans in their revolutions against

(lc is very hostile agdinst Texas, having. been made
prisoner by General Houston while bearing a flag of
"'nee from General Filiciola, who commanded the
Mexican army in the campaign of 1e36, after the
13,‘4! capture of Santa Anna. General Wail is able and
NIL, experienced, a good disciplinarian, and has good
troops, which he has drilled in person. Samuel
Houston is an imbecile, and will be no match for him
in the field. That is my opinion. I know them both ;
however we shall soon see the result of the invasion.
A brig sailed from there a few days since for Vera
Cruz with 2,000 barrels of coal for the Mexican war
steamers, and in all probability the Mexican fleet will
attack Galveston by, sea in a very short time. That
done, and a good army of 7,000 to 8,000 men
marching from the West, unless the Texians make a
grand rally and gain some decisive advantage, their
country is lost, for they have not the means to sustain
an efficient army in the field for any length of time,
rd they cannot expect assistance from the United
41es—our people have lost and suffered too much to
be induced to aid them any more under such an ineffi-
eie.at Government as they have at present.

ts yr COTTON TRADE.
11,,,, ~- ne state of the markets in all the ports has had a
0 . nownward tegkeney. At New Orleans there has been
rat good demand for the English and French markets,
out the low state of the exclutuges renders it almost

$500,000

impossible to operate. The principal transactions are
made in specie, and the holders of that medium make
purchases almost on the same terms. This state of
the currency at the head of the market for produce
operating with the great abundance of the new crop,
causes the general decline in prices.
CORN TRADE.
There has been only a fair demand for broadstuffs
since our last report. We notice no material altera-
tion in prices in this market. Supplies are to a fair
extent, having reached to upwards of 850,000 barrels
for the season. This only includes that received down
the North River. We have had an aggregate supply
this year of one million barrels.
Extensive sales of wheat-were making in Buffalo
on the 26th, at 63 cents. Best brands of flour $3,50,
although inferior miscellaneous samples have been
sold as low as $3,00. Corn is out of request at 34
cents. Oats 15 cents on the 28th. A cargo of 5,000
bushels wheat from Monroe was afloat, which was
contracted for to arrive, but the purchaser failed to
meet his engagement. It will probably bring 67 cents.
An advance of freights on the canal have thrown corn
out of the market. There was one cargo afloat, but
no offers to purchase.
The best samples of wheat were offered freely in
Cleveland, on the 26th, at 60 cents, at which some
sales were made. There was no particular price for
flour, holders being unwilling to accede to rates cor-
responding with the New York market-31 would
be given.
We do not believe that the average price all over
the country, will reach four dollars a barrel. We be-
lieve that it is certainly one shilling under that point.

ATLANTIC STEAM SHIPS AGAIN.—OR authority,
we now inform the public, that the terminus of the
Columbia, Caledonia, Acadia, and Britannia, hereto-
fore known as the Cunard steamers, is to be changed
from Boston to this city. It is stated that the pioneer
of the line will make her appearance in our beautiful
bay early next spring. This important change is no
more than what we expected. It is plain to the
meanest capacity that this city is far superior as a
terminus, for a line of steamers like the above, than
Boston, or any other seaport on the American coast.
This alteration in the route of these steam-ships will,
of course, be strongly opposed by the Bostonians.
One of their papers has already come out with an ar-
ticle denying a great many facts set forth by us, and
asserting to the truth of a great many falsehoods set
forth by themselves.—New York Herald.
DAY or JUDGMENT.—Joe Miller, the prophet, the
grandson of Joe Miller, the jester, opens his budget
to-morrow at Newark, to prove that the day of judg-
ment takes place the 23d of April next, and no post-
ponement on account of the weather.
THE SHIPPING INTERESTS.—Why do not the de-
pressed shipping interest in New -York, including
ship-holders, shipowners, sailors, and stevedores, call
a public meeting to consider what are the causes of
the decay in their business ?
QUICK PASSAGES.—Three ships arrived yesterday
in remarkably short passages from Europe : the
Ville de Lyon, Captain Stoddard, and Angelique, Cap-
tain Brewer, in twenty-one days, and the Westmin-
ster, Captain Atwood, in nineteen days. Where are
the steam-ships? Our packet-ships are taking the
steam out of their boilers.
FORGERY IN BOSTON.—Forgeries of cheques and
notes are again getting to be most alarmingly fre-
quent. We have had three or four in this city within
a week. In Pennsylvania recently, two or three fe-
male forgers have been detected ; and in Boston they
are beginning the same game. Oliver W. Blake was
arrested in Boston, Thursday afternoon last, for
forging the name of Wm. Whiting to a cheque on the
Merchants' Bank for 700 dollars.
FIRST FRUITS OF THE TREATY.—The Bangor
Whig states that a number of the citizens of Maine
are making preparations to engage in the lumber
business on the Aroostook and Fish Rivers, this win-
ter. This movement is attributable to the free navi-
gation of the St. John's River, secured by the recent
treaty between Great Britain and this country.

THEATRICALS IN THE UNITED STATES,
Braham and his son are on their way to New York.
after a most successful tour through Upper and Lower
Canada. They will probably pass the winter in the
Havannah and the British West India Islands.
Several singers are in New York. Mr. and Mrs.
Seguin, Mrs. Bailey, Mrs. Knight, &c., all appear at
the Park in the new musical drama of Moses in
Egypt, accompanied by nearly one hundred choristers.
Mr. and Mrs. Hoskins and Billy Williams also appear
in it.
Celeste has returned to the Bowery to play a fare-
well engagement. Neither her sister nor daughter
will return to Europe with her ; Celeste leaves New
York on the 18th of November for England, where
she will resume her engagement at the Haymarket.
In Philadelphia, Forrest is playing Jack Cade, but
does not draw very well. Richings, Miss Ayres, &c.,
are at the Chesnut.
Hackett is doing nothing. Hill is lecturing all over
New England, and holds forth somewhere every night
except Sundays.
