TATTERSALL'S, MONDAY

In the attendance this afternoon there was a marked im-
provement, and business, comparatively speaking, was tolera-
bly interesting. lon had many friends, and at one time was
booked as low as 20 to 9. The Alzira and Lanercost parties,
however, came out in such force that he lost a little ground,
the closing prices being 9to 4 (takers of sto 2.) Two or
Three persons laid 5 to 1 against Don John, but thelakers
waft plentiful, and the "old stagers" offered only 4 to 1.
Cobham was backed at 10 to 1 in good quarters, and a rouleau
was laid out on Pucelle at 16 to 1, her final price being three
points less. The "gallant Grey" and Albemarle were not
in favour, and Appleton Lad had received a knock down
blow. Saintfoin, who made his appearance on Thursday
last, rose to 20 to 1 (or takers of 22 to 1.) The general odds
at the close were:—

9 to 4 against Col. Peel's lon. (t 5 to 2)
4to 1 „ Lord Chesterfield's Don John. (t sto 1)
7to 1 „ Mr. Parkin's Lanercost. (t 15 to 2)

LIVERPOOL HURDLE RACES.—Tbe day fixed for this
meeting is Monday, Oct. 8, when two Hurdle Sweepstakes
and a Handicap Race are to be contended for. The first
prize is 50 sovs. added to a subscription of 15 sovs. each,
10 sous. tt.; two miles—to be run over hurdles. The
second race is of the same character, but for a less amount;
the subscription being only 7 sovs. each, with 20 sovs. added
—once round and a distance. Tho last is a Handicap Stakes,
of 10 sovs. each, with 50 sovs. added, the winner to be sold
for 150 sovs., and will he run for in the legitimate way—that
is, minus the hurdles. The conditions are, to close and name
on the last day of the Heaton Park Meeting. The promoters
of this annual treat to the sporting world are sanguine of an
excellent muster of sound nags, and, we are certain, no ef-
forts will be spared by them to accomplish that object. Lord
Molyneux honours the meeting by his stewardship, and Mr.
Lynn appears in the capacity of secretary. We hope a good
attendance will be the crowning result.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE AND

MONEY MARKET.

WEDNESDAY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
We have received Sydney papers to the Ist of May. The
following are extracts

"The—Moffat, prison-ship, which has arrived at Hobart
Town, brings despatches, we understand, from Lord Gleneig,
conveying the very unsatisfactory information that emigra-
tion is to cease to Van Diemen's Land, but that transporta-
tion is to be continued hither upon an extended scale. An
emigrant ship laden for this colony has been countermanded.
We suppose New South Wales is no longer a penal settle-
ment.

"A letter received in town a few days ago from King
George's Sound, gives a pitiable account of the indolence of
the residents of that settlement, and of the deplorable state
of the place in general."
Letters from Valparaiso of the 30th of May state " that the
blockade of Lima has been established, but on the other side
General Santa Cruz has officially notified to the foreign con-
suls that the enemy's ports will be blockaded on the 20th of
August, which will be undertaken with the ships purchased
at Baltimore. On the 15th of May General Santa Cruz was
at Auguero. The commerce of Peru was prosperous; they
were going to export a considerable quantity of wool and
cotton. A ship laden with mercury bad arrived at Arica,
and it was generally expected that in the following six
months five millions of dollars would be coined in the mints
of Lima, Cusco, and Potosi,"

New Brunswick papers to the 17th of August, and Hali-
fax to the 21st, have arrived. The former are barren of in-
telligence • the latter mention that his Excellency Lieut.
General in-
telligence; Colin Campbell bad left Halifax to visit the
Earl of Durham, and that the government of Nova Scotia,
during his absence, would devolve upon Lieut. Colonel
Snodgrass.

TUESDAY EVENING.

By the advices from Hamburgh the price of gold I;43dyj
per mark, which, at the English Mint price of £3 l7s 104 d
the ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13. 10%,
and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being
13. 9. it follows that gold is 0.81 per cent. dearer at Ham-
purgh than in Ldndou.
The premium on gold at Paris is 74 per mille, which, at
the English Mint price of £3 17s 10 y.,id the ounce for standard
gold, gives an exchange of 25. 34; and the exchange at Paris
on London at short being 25. 421, it follows that gold is 0.34
per cent. lower in Paris than in London.
The course of exchange at New York on London is 1091
per cent., and the par of exchange between England and
America being 109.23.40 per cent., it follows that the ex-
change is .07 per cent. against England.
