MONETARY AND-COMMERCIAL.
LIVERPOOL, Friday Evening.

The sales of Cotton to-day, were about 7,000
bales, including 1,500 on speculation .and for
export, the market closing with a quiet tone ; the
advance of Id. per lb. on the better class of Bowed,
and 1-16 d. on New Orleans realised in the earlier
part of the week being barely, maintained. In
Brazil and Egyptian no change, and Surats only
just support the currency of this day week.
Messrs. Edmund Jardine and Co., in their circular
of this afternoon, state

Our market opened on Monday with a better inquiry
than we have experienced for some weeks, and the
advices Der Africa beine construed in favour of holders,

they were induced to 'be less urgent in offering

stoks, thus imparting more tone to the -market, and
buyers could not purchase under a slight advance. The
continued , good demand of Tue,sday and Wednesday
produced greater tightness, establishing an advance of
1-16 d per lb in New Orleans and Mobile, and gd to

3-16 d per lb in Boweds on the low sales of the week
previous. Since then a somewhat quieter feeling has

prevailed, but pric

Surats are slow

Of sale and unchanged. The -demand for Sea Islands,
Brazil, and Egyptian has been very moderate, and
quotations are unaltered. _ _

Messrs. Wright, jtm., and Co., in their circular
of this evening, thus notice, the movements of the
trade during the week : _ _ . _ .

The closing remarks in our circular ad
ultimo, reported irregularity as the ruling feature in our
Cotton Market. We have since to hand intellimem
from America up to the 21st ultimo, and although the
receipts at the shipping ports continued on a liberal seal(
prices were firmly maintained, and exports were li
On th

strength of which, and in view of the losses
required to be submitted to, in order to make sales here,
many holders withdrew their samples from offer, and
our market in the early part of the week assumed a
steadier aspect. The trade at the same time evinced
more disposition to enlarge their purchases, and the
resumption of speculative operations to a moderate extent,

iously most depressed

resulted in a partial advance 01
descriptions. Towards the middle of the week, howeN
the animation subsided, offerings increased, and we have
relapsed into a state very similar to the feeling existing at
the time of .the America's departure. The undefined
position of political affairs, the introduction of further
foreign loans, ,the expectation of large requirements by
