MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, Saturday Evening. The sales of Cotton to-day were about 8,000 bales, of which 1,000 were on speculation and for export.

The Funds now present a much firmer appear ance, and the gloomy feeling produced by the late fall and the circulation of unfavourable rumours, has given place to renewed confidence and partial buoyancy. With an improving Money Market, the prospect of cheaper money, a con tinuance of commercial prosperity, and the financial condition of the country in the flourishing position, as illustrated by the remarks of Sir Gorge C. Lewis, last evening, the public cannot fail to take the most sanguine view of the future ; and although the Indian news may occasionally produce uneasiness, the progress of political events, as far as can be judged at present, is by no means likely to interfere with the course of monetary affairs. The Bank of England return, Published yesterday evening, has given general satisfaction, and encourages the belief that the directors will soon be enabled to make a further Concession. This morning there was a slight improvement in all classes of Securities, and Con sols have risen about 1 per cent, having been 914 to 911 for Money, and 914 to 92 for the Account. In the afternoon a still further rise of about k per cent took place, Consols for Money closing at 911 to 91 4, and for the Account 94 Exchequer Bills 4 dis. to par., and the New Three per Cents 924-. The following list shows the fluctuations in Con sols during the past week :- Lowest Highest Closing prices. prices. prices.

Account , .91i 928 eel e e The Bankers' Circular of to-day, thus notices the state of the Money Market :- In the presence of numerous favourable circumstances, such as an increase of specie arrivals, the prospect of an abundant harvest, and an easier condition of the Money Market, the English Funds have been affected almost entirely by the affairs connected with India during the w rit. On Thursday, the Bank of England lowered the minimum rate of discount from 6 to 5* per cent., and the Join! -Stock Banks and discount houses made their ens- Loin ar e A y reductions, the latter reducing their rates a t ca ll to Per cent., and to 5 per cent. at seven days' notice, w ile the former have reduced thei r ra t e on d epos it s t o 41 per cent. There is no doubt that these changes have been the result of a greater amount of money at the command of both parties, owing partly to a diminished demand and to an increase in the supplies. The Bank returns of to-day did not fully warrant the course taken by the Bank, but at this period the returns are always exceptional, on account of the payment of the dividends ; but the reduction was probably made upon the state of the Bank accounts for the present week. Consols have declined as low as 911 for money ; India Stock has declined from 222 in May to 212, and the Bonds have fallen to 20s discount during the past week. The future state of the Money Market seems now to hang upon the. demands for India, which, under the most favourable, views of the Case, will involve the expenditure of sever ea ' millions. An opinion has been expressed by a cotempr vary that the necessary sums may be easily raised in Ir,di a to meet these demands ; but from a close examiv aat i„ o f the financial condition of the government in In" , i a, and of the company's affairs at home, the accuracy O f , this opinion is open to very serious doubts. We are in, elined to believe that if any large sum be required, it must the Lond on M oney Market. be sought for in The imports of specie dud. , "g the week were about 1,15 0;000/ , viz :-B the Frances Henty. from Melbourne, 24 . 732 o y ' f es. o gold, or 98,9281; the Roxb urg h Castle, f gold, or 122,50 4/ ; tile r " e Melbourne, 30,626 ozs James Baines from Mel bourne, 60,314 ozs go' 911 256/. the Europa id,or from America, 455,0 p from New (Mean' dols, or 91,1971; the Hor izon Indian from Ale at .; e 3 cases specie ; the West 8,0001 in silver ; the Tagus from the Medit ' erranean, 2 100/ ; the Clarence from Antwerp, 19 C log ne ases bullion ; the Albion from 8e1t ,6, 00/ 'the ' cases bullion; the M e d w ay f r om Brazils, 14 '" bine from Boulogne, 30 cases of bullion ; Lae Ono oco from the West Indi es , 922,551 d o l s , or 184 : 519' t the Persia from America, 881, 885 d o ls, , s " 377. ...he exports during the week reached 70,000/. ; Isarnelv, by the La Plata, for the West Indies, 19 ,428/, of which 1281 is in gold, and the remaining silver ; the Sultan, for Lisbon, 30,0004 and Cadiz 1 8,7501, The official returns of the export of the Precious Metals from the port of London, for the week end ing July 10, show a total of 13,075 ozs of gold, and 5 5,600 ozs silver- The impression has become stronger that there is no chance of the proposed Turkish loan being entertained, to drop. Probably the project will be allowed Parcels of Australian gold to the amount of' 155,0001. were yesterday sent into the Bank, a total of b etween making 3 70,0001. and 400,00 0 / , this week. We believe the total remittances of specie and bullion to the East, b y the Indus on the 20th instant, (Monday), will reach only about 530,0001,, showing a Considerable reduc tion, compared with recent shipments. On the 4th instant the total was 859,2201., and on the 20th ult., 1,142,6161, being the largest ever known. It is computed that the shipments of silver by the ' packet of the 4th August will considerably exceed those by the present steamer, about 200,0001 having already been sold. This amount has yet to be imported from the Continent or elsewhere. We understand that the real reason of the com parative smallness of the shipments by the Indus rests with the fall in the price of silver in London which followed the recent reduction of the East India Company's rate of exchange, VA price THE NORTHERN TIMES.-LIVERPOOL MONDAY, JULY 20, 1857. quoted for silver here was too low to attract any large supplies from the Continent, The silver market is now, however, decidedly firmer, and the collection of silver on the Continent will probably be proportionately stimulated. The arrival is reported of the steamer Baron Osy, from Antwerp, with 70 cases and 5 bags of silver on freight, estimated to be worth nearly 60,0001. The Pelican has arrived from Shanghai with 275,700 lbs. of tea on freight. The Acme' has also arrived from the same port Letters from St. Petersburg, dated the 10th July, report a considerable fall in Tallow, which was quoted 175 roubles for August delivery. The exchange on London ruled at 37-Z-1 to 38d, which will barely allow of the exportation of gold to this side. In the event, however, of the rate declining below this quotation, some moderate amounts may be looked for. The exchange on Amsterdam was quoted at 1861 to ; on Hamburg, 33 9-16 to 11- 16; and on Paris, 397 to 400. The Admiralty will receive tenders on the 30th inst. for the hire of two or three screw steamers, to convey about 1,500 men from England to Hong Kong. The Admiralty will receive tenders on the 11th of August for the supply and delivery on the western coast of Arrica of 7,300 tons of ooals. The traffic returns of the Grand Trunk Railway of Canada for the week ending June 27th show total receipts of 10,032, against 5,197 corresponding week last year. Respecting the movements on Mines during the week, the Mining Journal of to-day states : The news from India has caused great depression in the funds, and considerable daily fluctuations in prices ; but money has been easier daring the week, and the mining market quite as active as we could reasonably expect under all circumstances. The Banca tin sales are over, and the price realised said to be £lO per ton beyond the price of last year ; and it is reported, also, that the tin was pur chased by foreigners, the English smelters not getting any. If this be true, their disappointment will be great, but will cause anything but regret to the miners, who have been compelled for some time past to submit to constant reduc tions in price, these Dutch sales being made the pretext for dropping the price of English ore week by week. And now, if the miners manage their returns properly, a good advance must take place. Trade in the north of Ireland during the week has been rather brisk. The Fiax Crop has been greatly benefitted by the slight rains of the last few days ; and some fields look very promising. Last year's crop is nearly exhausted, and of the finer qualities of fibre, only small stocks exist, even in the hands of merchants. Rates are Os to 7s 10d per stone for handseutched ; and 7s to 12s 6tl for milled. Yarns are held for more money ; and if manufacturers had begun to push work, the scale of prices would be likely to go up several points. Linens, in the white state, do not range so heavily as they did in the July of last year. Bleaching operations go on briskly at all the establishments in the three counties. Brown goods, whether of hand or power-loom, sell at full prices; the cost of production is still high, as compared with the rates of value. It is expected that, before the close of the year, a large addition will have been made to the number of steam-looms at work in the North of Ireland.

Iron.—ln Staffordshire there is great firmness, several considerable American orders having been given out. The Welsh makers are also better employed, and as money becomes easier a good business is anticipated. Tin.—Great interest has been excited in this metal during the week, in conse quence of the Dutch sale on the 16th, when the price realised for Banta was extraordinarily high, being 821 f., or equal to about £139 per ton here; and it is said on 'Change that even at this price purchases have changed hands at a premium. A large advance in English will be the immediate consequence of the high price realised for Bann. Lead.—This market is still quite firm, and lead is in good request, although scarcely so active as for soma weeks past. Spelter is not in request, and prices are weaker.

The anticipated rise has been realised, the attendance of buyers both from our own country and the continent being very large. , July 17. OUTPORTS. GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY. The annexed traffic returns of the Grand Trunk Rail way shows a steady increase, being £10,032, against £9,775 the previ)us week. This, be it remarked, on a line incomplete with rolling stock, with the river break at Montreal, and not yet furnished with wharfage and goods depots at the seaport of Quebec, or the lake pert of Kingston ; until these works, which are in progress, are completed, the shipping is . cut cff from the railway. This necessarily deprives the radway . of large train loads, the only economical mode of carrying rods by rail as against water. The Canadian broad guage lines can carry 200 tons, the ton being only 2,000 lbs. Such cargo trains would leave a large profit at a halfpenny per ton per mile, being about twelve shillings per ton per train mile, which is more than is earned on the costly English railways. The cost of the Grand Trunk per mile will be little over half that of the Great Western and the New York Erie. Before the bridge is completed it is calculated the traffic will defray the interest chargeable on capital, and when the bridge is opened a traffic of £25 per mile per week will be reached the first year.

The English Churchman denounces Sunday parties : "We much regret to see symptoms of an intention to make Sunday figure in the ` fashionable arrangements.' Hitherto those who have had so little regard for the religious welfare of their domestics, to say nothing of their own, as to give dinner parties on a Sunday, have, at all events, bad the decency to keep them out of the court newsman's gossip. This deference to decency has, however, ceased to exist in some quarters. For instance, the fashionable announcements' inform us that ' the Earl of Westmoreland entertained at dinner, on Sunday last, the Duchess of Cambridge, the Princess Mary, and a brilliant party.' This, of course, involves the employment of a large culinary staff the whole day." DARING CASE OF SHEEP STEALING. —On Tuesday evening, a flesher in Calton came to the Eastern Police office, and reported that five sheep of his had been stolen from a flock of 70 in a park on the farm of Larchgrove, near Shettlestone. The supposed thief was a person named George Douglas, who had been some time in his employment, but who was such a plausible fellow that he had hesitated to inform upon him sooner, the sheep having been amissing since Friday. Detectives Campbell and I`,l‘l•Tanght, with characteristic activity, at once proceeded to make minute and skilful inquiries into the circumstances of the case, and steps were taken to apprehend Douglas, who was shortly afterwards lodged in the Police-office. It appeared that the theft had been committed on the Wednesday previous, and the the sheep driven into Glasgow, and left penned np in a field opposite the Cattle Market, in Duke-street. In this field the officers found four of the sheep, the other, as they learned, having been killed and sold to the owner for 26s , the depredator having represented it as a sheep which had been injured on the railray, and which he had bought at a bargain, and the master being desirous of encouraging him by the purchase. The officers were accompanied by the owner, and a careful examination was made of the four sheep, which he • had some difficulty in identifying on account of their having been keeled anew on the shoulder and near the tail. The owner, however, recognised his peculiar "lug-mark," which the officers subsequently found to correspond with the mark on the rest of the flock. Douglas denied having been at Larchgi•Ove on the day in question, and stated that be had bought ten sheep from a party on Glasgow Green, five of which he had sold to a person in Airdrie, whose name he did not know. On the officers proceeding to Shettlestone, however, and making diligent inquiry as they went, they found parties who stteed they had seen Douglas on the road on the Wednesday, within_ u quarter of a mile of the park at Larchgrove, and save him driving the five sheep before him all the way until he arrived in Duke-street. Douglas was remitted to the shee:iff for examination. It is stated that previews to COD , o-g to Glasgow he had been three months in prison at Tinverary, f for breach o f t rus t o r embezzlement, while the service o f an extensive s h ee p farmer 5 t 4 th";;nlauds.—Glasgew • Mail, LIVERPOOL WOOL SALES.

THE CLIMATE oe SOUTH BRI I AIN. —The climate of New Zealand is essentially a good climate, and has not so mach been over praised as badly praised. More frost, less wind and rain, would make it perfection; but, as it is, all this msy be truly said of it—that it is a climate favourable alike to the preservation of robust health and the improvement of weak health; a climate most congenial to all pastoral and agricultural punuits ; wee in which every English domestic animal thrives and fattens; and in which every English grain, grass, fruit, and flower attains full develop ment and perfection. —Hurstkouses :trew Zealand. HOSPITAL FOR DISABLED MERCHANT SEAMEN.—An influential meeting was held yesterday, in the Egyptian hall, at which the Lord Mayor pesided, to promote the formation of a hospital, for aged and disabled master mariners and seamen of the mercantile nvirine. Many naval cfficers of high rank were present. The following was the principal resolution :—" That a building be raised on the Banks of the Thames, within the port of London, to be called (with her Majesty's permission) ' The Royal Hospital for Wornout and Disabled Merchant Seamen' That the said building be prepared for the reception of 500 persons selected from the different grades of the mercantile marine, and that it be commer•ced as soon as there is a fair prospect of £ 50,000 being subscribed, and that a plan of out•pcnsions be grafted on the institution." MAINE-LAW DEMONSTRATION AT CA RNARVON. The annual gathering of the North Wales supporters of the Maine-law movement was held on Thursday, in the yard of Garnarven Castle. There were special trains to Car narvon, on the occasion, from several plac:;3, including Manchester, Warrington, Chester, and Liverpool. Mr. Alderman Harvey, Mr. Samuel Pope, honorary secretary to the Alliance for the Suppression of the Liquor Traffic, with other supporters of the movement in this locality, proceeded by the Manchester train, which reached Car• narvon at half-past eieven o'clock in the forenoon. Although the early part of the day was showe!y, the afternoon was exceedingly fine. There were three meetings held in the spacious yard of the interesting old castle. The platform was fixed in the lower part of the slope, near the Eagle Tower, that in which it is said Edward 11. first drew his breath. It appeared to be almost a general holiday in Carnarvon, many of the inhabitants being mem ters of the Temperance Ssciety. When the large audience was assembled, it presented a very picturesque appearance. B. sides those on the grassy floor, there were numerous groups of listeners peering from all points of the hsllow walls and vast towers of the castle. The great thickness of the side walls uniting the towers afforded sitting room along the top (upon forms) for lengthy rows of people, as if in a gallery ; others stationed themselves in the loopholes of the towers; and not a few ladies might be seen looking down from the very tops of the lofty turrets which =mount the towers, and from which they dislodged the customary occupants, the jackdaws, which flew about, with apparent anxiety for the close of the pro ceedings. The first meeting c enmenced at ten o'clock in the forenoon, and was presided over by Mr. Philips, of Bangor. The audience was then addressed by the Rev. Owen Jones, of Manchester, in Welsh; and the Hon, Neal Dow. At the afternoon meeting, the Rev. Thomas Thomas, the vicar of the parish of Llanbabli.s, Carnarvon, occupied the chair ; and the sp.akers were the Rev Canon Jenkins, of Llandaff ; and Mr. Samuel Pope, of Manchester. Mr. Alderman Harvey presided iu the evening, and the Hon. Neal Dow again spoke at some length. There was a strong cho4 of male and female singers from several congregations, and they added much to the pleasure of the proceedings by their vocal effirts.

IttroamSTlON RESPECTING CANADA.—The Canadian Governmen has published an interesting pamphlet on the resources of Canadat and the prospects in store for the industrious of all classes who desire to emigrate there.
