MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, Friday Evening. The Cotton Market to-day was firm at the established rates of the week. The sales amounted to 10,000 bales, of which 2,000 were taken on speculation, or for export. Concerning the week's business, Messrs. George Holt & Co., in their circular, say : All the saleable qualities of American Cotton are dearer. The demand has been fair throughout the whole of the week, but as the trade do not generally buy more than just sufficient for their immediate consump tion, the market continues without life or animation ; notwithstanding this, however, all the better descriptions of American are 1-16 d. to id. higher in price, while the dusty and sandy sorts are, if possible, becoming every day more unsaleable ; the only business to any extent in this kind is to speculators and exporters, at extremely low prices. We now quote "middling " Uplands, 61d. ; Mobile, 7d. ; and Orleans, 70. .The Committee of Brokers place " fair " Uplands, 70Mobile, . ; 73d ; and Or leans, 71d.—we consider the quotation for Uplands too low. Surats have been in good demand; but as holders offer their stocks freely, and are anxious to make progress in sales, prices are kd. in favour of buyers. Egyptians and Brazils are also dull of sale, and may be considered an to id. lower in the last fortnight. There has been considerable change in the Manchester markets during the last two or three weeks, sales having been made at id., and in some instances ld., decline from previous rates. Thr accounts from the United States are generally favourable for the crop ; there are, however, ' complaints of too much rain in some sections of the country. 2,070 American, 880 Surat, and 160 Egyptian are reported to have been taken on speculation ; 2,010 American, 9,250 Surat, 30 Pernam, and 150 Bahia for ex-prt ; so that the deliveries to the trade for the week have been about 45,000 bales. The Liverpool Share Market has been: dull — indeed stagnant—throughout the week, and prices showed a drooping tendency. To-day, however, the tone of the market has been decidedly firmer, and an advance in prices has been established and well sustained, the market closing at its best, point, and with an upward tendency. The London and North Western, and Great Western Stocks having been most prominent in demand. The business transacted to-day, included Birken heads at 77 ; Caledonian at 891; Great Western, 63a_ ; Lancaster and Carlisle, third shares, 16 „hp. ; London and North Western, 94k ; South Eastern, 22 15-16 ; Buffalo and Lake Huron, 5k ; Grand Trunk of Canada, 9 9-16; Great Luiembourg constit, 7k ; North Union A., 236 ; Bank of Liverpool, 191, ; Great Ship, 18s. 18s. 6d.

British St. ... .59 593 „ new shares In the general Produce Markets, a fair amount of business has been done during the week. Tea has rather improved in value. Coffee, though most wanted, has not arrived in quantity, and conse quently little business has been done. For Sugar, a fair amount of inquiry has been felt ; and the same has been the case with Molasses, Rice, and Rum. The Cora Market of the past week has exhibited firmness rather than biloyaney, and prices have been in favour of sellers. The narrow compass into which the stocks of first class French and Irish Flour are getting, with a good demand daily, for consumption, enhances thi value, and they command each 41s. 6d. to 425. per 2801bs. Some good sound Canadian new red Wheat,' and new Flour (arrived by steamer this week), were sold, the former at 6s. 6d. per 701b5., and the Flour at 275. to 28s. per barrel. In the English Stock Market a better feeling has prevailed to-day, business commencing with a more cheering appearance. At the commence ment Consols were quoted at from -1 to a per cent. higher than the final close of last night, and throughout the morning have been well supported , Consols being now at 951 96 for money and account. Bank Stock is 2202 222 and 2192 ; ditto for account, 221 and 222 ; India Debentures, 96j 951 and 96 ; the Bonds 2 dis. to par • and Exchequer Bills 275. 28s. a n d 25 5 . prem. The English Railway Share Market, though quiet, exhibited greater firmness in price, and a tendency to improve was apparent. Caledonian, E ar t er n Counties, with South Easterns, have advanced about 10s. per share ; South Westerns and Berwicks are I per cent. better, The market for Foreign Securities was mode rate, and values were generally maintained with steadiness, without presenting any material change, ex cept in those for T urkish Old Stocks, whichi li have declined about -I to per cent.

During the greater part of the day the Funds re mained at yesterday's prices, when lower quotations from Paris caused new heaviness. In the Stock Ex change money was abundantly offered at 1! per cent. The railway market has again been without the slightest animation. Lancashire and Yorkshire returns show an increase of £4,454 ; North Eastern, £3,128 ; Midland, 13,105.—Times. The Funds were fairly supported until late in the afternoon, when news of a considerable fall on the Paris Bourse, where the difficulties surrounding the Roman question are keenly felt, gave an immediate blow to confidence. The departure of the Pope from Rome, the excitement in Italy, and the impediments to the settle ment of the treaty of peace, were generally discussed, and the markets closed flat. The reduction in consols was limited tog per cent.; and British railway stocks resisted the downward tendency ; but foreign securities of most descriptions were depressed. The agitation, however, appears to have been mainly of a speculative character. The payments of the dividends commenced at the Bank of England this day, and the money market was naturally affected. Choice bills were discounted at 21 to 2 per cent. There were no bullion operations ofimportance at the Bank to-day.—Daily News. MONETARY PROSPECTS. It is stated in the Times' city article that the payment of dividends, which commenced yesterday, seems likely to aggravate in a more than usual degree the difficulties of persons in search of investments. Already the dealers were short of most kinds of securities, political perils having long rendered them timid, and now a class of purchasers are coming into market who almost always, without reference to any external emsideration, steadily invest their accumulations as they come to hand. After a review of the various channels of investment, the writer comes to the conclusion that no outlet of any magnitude for our superabundant capital is likely for some time to offer itself, and that consols and ordinary railway stocks must continue in increased demand until the com mercial prosperity of the country . takes a turn, or new signs of war create alarm, or prices have attained the mania point, when the public, now so discreet, will ,rush into any novel imposture that may be concocted for them.

THE DAY'S NEWS. The determination which the Dictator of Parma has shown to bring to justice the murderer of Count Anviti, has excited a strong feeling of ge neral approval among the Italians. Even the National Guard, as well as the citizens generally, of Parma, are signing, it seems, an address of thanks to him for the measures he has taken. It is now stated that the Lombard Debt has been one of the principal difficulties in the Con ferences at Zurich, and that it is now, in fact, the only question remaining to be settled. This, however, does not tally exactly with what is understood to have been the results of the French Emperor's recent consultations witl the foreign ministers at Biarritz. _ _ It is now confidently stated. that the Confer ences at Zurich being about to ea se, the Congress which is io give effect to their proceedings has already been convened, and that it is to consist of representatives of all the Great Powers, England included. The speech of Sir John Pakington, in Worces tershire, on China, which was briefly noticed in our second edition of yesterday, appears to have given general satisfaction ; insisting, as it did, on the necessity of our policy with respect to that country being no longer considered a matter of party opinion, but of national interest. The return of the Emperor and the Empress of the French to their capital, appears to have dif fused great joy among the Parisians,—more par ticularly, of course, the tradesmen, whose inter ests so materially depend upon the presence of the Court. It was somewhat ominous, that, al most simultaneously with the Imperial return, there should have been issued an official warning to one of the French press, showing that the old restrictions on its liberty are, in the main, to be maintained. The article which has provoked this warning, accuses the French Government "of abandoning the glory and the interests of France in the affairs of Italy." This was, no doubt, touching upon a sore point ; and it would naturally be felt that, for the Emperor to return among them, under such an imputation, might be apt to deprive him of some of the expected eclat. We have news from New York, it will be seen, via Southampton, to the Ist instant, but it is of no political moment whatever. In our next we shall no doubt be able to give intelligence from the United States to the sth instant, and which may probably communicate something more im portant. Among the local occurrencies of the day, the coming Municipal Elections are beginning to assume the importance they usually put on when the middle of October has been reached. No fewer than three ward meetings were held yes terday. One of these was held in the Common Hall, Hackin's Hey, which was most numerously attended by the leading men of all parties con nected with Castle-street Ward. The meeting was enthusiastic in its declared opinion of the desirableness which exists for obtaining a thor oughly efficient practical man of business to represent the ward in the Town Council ; and such a man they have found in Mr. Woodburn, who, the meeting declared, fully deserves their confidence. caoe WE spoke, yesterday, of the various Augean stables, scattered about our so cial and p olitical system, polluting the moral at mos p here. And we adverted with some degree of hop e to our Social Science advocates, as humble p ioneers in the work of removing or cleansing them. But there is one stable which, notw ithstanding all our disgust, and all our affe cted attempts at purifica tion, gives no sign of ever growing less loath powlteiee.lr m, e r a lilde loath some and offensive. There is so much interested m e in and kee respectable it at its dirty level, so many spectabk interests are banded , t ,e h y ec d l e a a y n, of u s m i n o g re eo to c ro r : ne e : n o t t l oiu , d that aotre d electoraltah n e d d i m r tmbo sys v b o m e together, to burke t he innov at in g Hercules and dam i p tem; or rather not to the electoral system, bur , to the way in which unscrupulous -men pervert and it. _ - utt l eo lr pro i ‘ l ncia l any one, for instance, undertake for competent reward, and without being ' pressed unduly as to time, :to cleanse the Leatham. stable ? The light is being turned in, upon it with such a breadth of glare, that every nook and corner and cranny of filth and nastiness , is thrust forward upon the canvass with Pre Raphaelite intensity. The whole machinery of corruption is turned inside out, and every little spring, every minute contrivance, every wheel and stop cock and safety valve, reveals every particular office it performs, and the means of its performance. Dreadful, indeed, to turn the bull's eye of the Executive 11 1" 11- Gloucester and Wakefield! Could not the noble, art which election agents live to foster and pas s ' on to hopeful students, be left flourishing in i ts. -chosen home ? If this back-ground machinery of ^ elections were destroyed, would not science re-- ceive a blow, and the skill and tact of the practi cal mind lose one fertile branch of occupation an d development ? It may be a question whether the electioneering art be not a. serviceable safety" valve for society ; whether those who are ilh° paid for doing their dirty work at distant periods , and in , the meanwhile for keeping up the hill chinery, and therefore kept in some sort 01 official regulation, would not be found, in other Ittwh eiticircumstances,rthheoifure without the nefariousltpohrweesy chancei w ng ith Nv oc i vao t lt h fl i ever i vogen c .

He therefore " consults the propriety of a questionable occupation, and conducts i according to line and rule, and recognised I s ' Doubt not, too, he has conscienti ous scruples of his own, which rigidly insist upon an amount of respect and deference. The 18.31 his little scruples are managed, is simply by re ci ‘ procating a certain transfer of conscience betwe en himself and the candidate, or himself and th e committee. The casuistry of an election, ill its unknown and more delicate aspects, consistieg in the negotiation among its officials of all me rle" tart' transactions by means of a tacit understaod‘ ing ; an appearance being all the whil e kept 311 to each other, that the one suspects no dis honourable intention in the liberality which hi ° furnished him with money, and that the other a s little suspects a dishonourable intention in the way it is to be appropriated. The unconf essed 03 hidden purpose, each borrows the other's c oin science to bear; and in this way tries or preten d ' . to shuffle off his responsibility. The 4 , c oo' science" of an election agent is, we would ha ce our readers know, a curious subject of study, aid no mean problem in psychological science. But the practical question is, can We, the r; deck c `` pie of England, who as a body have 0, repugnance to dark and crooked arts , aPPIY auil, e ' remedy to an evil which conducts it self in su: it I S security and method? The Times tells 115, A foolish to expect from us so much perversitY led caprice, inasmuch as we are now fully res°lwiii on such alterations in our political syst em as, 0 it fix the evil more firmly than ever , and 001"teic, utterly irremediable. Thus there are, fort oc i, two parties to consider; and we are very 111,00 mistaken if the history of next parliament cl f the not tell a different tale from the prop hec y e t til s present moment. Mr. COBDEN tells iii , of parliament is not sincere in its professiello, anxiety to put bribery and corruption a° tei i. And we partly believe him. But shall o c o , him why ? Because there are too nicuill is of thanzs in the Legislature. We are certaio`.jer, opinion that much might be done by ao 111100, stood combination among candidates , to disc ta ble tenance and refuse to pay for the disrePll hief outlays of corruption. And one of the cof services done by the present Commis si ° b ilit! Inquiry, is to manifest this beyond all pos sl e ia of question. What hope is there of discou 7 e as so le ut ' s og the bad arts of election chicanery , society carries its LEATHAMS on its surface' re ot o aa second all its intrigues, support its Oar" tbeif affectation, and, like Sir W. HAYTER, " ha y othe rs suspicions," but only thank Heave n that tsra are doing the dirty work , and th at it 0131aireet out to their own benefit, without the ir eg 6ta implication ?
