MONETARY • AND COMMERCIAL,

LI VERPOCIL, 'Saturday Evening.
ThE'Cottnn Market has 'been quiet and steady
during the*.y, prices being well .maintained, and a
fair"business reported, amountingto about 6000 bales,
of which 1600 were on speculation and for export.
"Business in the LiverpoOl Share market was not
so firm to-day, and at the Close a slight concession
was'repoited. in prices.. The 'following are the day's
-transactions :—Chester and Birkenhead, .694; Eas7
'tern 'Counties, 114, Ii 3-10 ; Great Western 541 ;
"LancaShire and Yorkshire, 904; London and North
Western,. 90 ; Midland, 991 ; Dover, 204 ; Great
luxenibourg, ; Birmingham guaranteed, 721;
'North Union 8., 1694 ; Bank of Liverpool, 191;
`North and South Wales, 8; United Gas, 2034 ;
'Magnetic Telegraph, C. Shares, 144.
Although the increased inquiry for Money expe-
rienced within the last few days has not imparted
general activity to the Discount Market, the value
of 'accommodation has slightly advanced. Instead of
'2l per cent., the mercantile community have now to
pay 2 per cent. for the negociation of first-class bills.
This charge being still one half per cent. below the
"Bank of. England minimum, the inquiries at that
establishment continue limited, and it is, thertfore,

-not surprising that the balance sheet issued by the
anthorities for the week ending Wednesday last,
should exhibit a further declension in the stock of
" other securities." Complete stagnation was
apparent in the Market for the Public
Funds and Securities. The attendance of dealers was
unusually small, and business in most departments
was almost at a standstill. The alteration in prices,
however;was in almost all instances trifling. Con-
sols are officially marked 921 and 92?-„ ex div., for the
Bth Silly, and are now quoted 92 11-16 to 92 13-16, or
921. Bank stock has been dealt in at 219 ; the Three
per Cents.-Reduced, at 93k to 93 ; the New Three
per Cents., at 93k to 93; ; the Indian Four per Cent.
Debentures of last year, at 95 ; the Scrip of the New
Indian Loan, at 931 to 94'k ; India Bonds, at 2s dis.;
and Exchequer 'Bills, at 23s to 27s prem. The
Foreign Stock Market is likewise very quiet.
The old Turkish Loan shows a fresh reduc-
tion of about * per cent., being quoted 751 to
761. The loan .of last year, on the other
hand, after being marked 611, has advanced to 62*
to 631. Russian 'Four-and-a-Half per Cents. are
inquired for, and other foreign stocks inanimate.
Sales are recorded as follows :—Brazilian Old Five
per Cents, for account, 101 ; Ditto Four-and-a-Half
per Cents., 1858, 911 ; Mexican Three per Cents. 183 ;,
ditto for account, 181, 18: ; New Granada Deferred
Bonds, 51 ; Russian Four-and-a-half per Cents., 96 ;
Sardinian Five per Cents., 81; Turkish Six per Cents,
1854, 751, 76; ditto, for account (June 30), 761, 761 ;
ditto Six per Cents. (1858), 62 ; ditto for account;
614, 63.
In the London Railway Share Market, a very
limited bilAness has been transacted, and in one or
two instances pfiees have declined about I to 1 per
cent. London and Blackwall have recededl to 644.
North Western to 90 and 901. North British to
541, 55. North Eastern, York, to 721, 7'21; and
South Eastern to 674-. Eastern Counties have
improved to 561. South Western to 91 ; and
Norfolk to 56 and 57. The FOreign Lines are
exceedingly dull. Lombardo-Venetian Old Shares
are steady at 61, and the New at 64, 64. Great
Luxembourg, 51 ; and Sambre and Meuse, sf, 54.
In the Colonial Market, East Indian have declined to
1001 ; and Great Indian Peninsula to 981. Joint
Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares show no
variation of importance. City-Bank are at 641, 65.
London Joint Stock, d 3. Ottoman Bank, 17.
Union of Australia,'sBl, 551 ; and Royal Mail
Steam, 524.
Respecting Mines the Mining Journal of to-day
states
" For some weeks past the standard for copper ore has
been gradually falling, and the holders of stock in copper
mines are becoming naturally alarmed. It may not be
amiss, therefore, to refer to one or two of the causes for this
' depression, and see whether any crumbs of comfort may be
gathered for the future. The primary cause of the depres-
sion, as wo all know, is the war, and in -consequence of it
the small quantity of copper now exported to Germany, and the
dulness of trade in Birmingham and elsewhere. In addition
to this, and acting upon it, the metal market has for some
months been glutted with foreign copper, and as those
who control the price of metallic copper also regulate
the standard, or the price of the copper in the ore, they
have been endeavouring to buy this foreign metal as cheap,
as possible, and have put down the price accordingly, but
thus far the holders of it have not shown any willingness
to sacrifice at the prices offered. The mines have been for
some time suspended. The Share Market has been particu- '
larly dull this week, and in the, absence of buyers a fall has
taken place in almost every description of stock, whilst the
prices of many shares are merely nominal. This state of
things is not confined to new or speculative shares, but to
dividend and progressive mines, and many of the dividend
mines are the flatest of all. The fortnightly settling took
place on Thursday, but was not very extensive, even in
East Russell, in which so much speculative business is gene-
rally done.
During the past week the movements of the
Precious Metals have again been of an unimportant
character. The imports have amounted to 1,136,6021.,
including 532,835/. from Mexico and the West
Indies, by the La Plata; 156,825/. from the United
States, by the City of Baltimore ; 6,0001. by the
Borassia, and 257,7031. by the Canada ; 12,2191. from
the Peninsula, by the Sultan ; 120,0001. in gold from
St. Petersburg, and about 50,000/. in silver from the
Continent. The exports have been 5201. to the
West Indies, by the Parana ; and shipments to the
Continent, through the London Custom House,
estimated at 142,1621., making the total 142,6821.
The payments on account of the Indian Loan of

5,047,006/amounted, up to Thursday afternoon, to
3,531,000/. The-amount of the Scrip already paid
up in full is a few thousand pounds beyond 2,000,0001.
Consequently, the two final instalments, each of
25 per cent., and fixed, respectively, for the 19th
prox. and 16th August, will apply to the reduced
capital of 3,018,000/. The existing liability of the
market on this score is thus limited to a million and
a half sterling, divided into two instalments. The
magnitude of the payments in advance says a good
deal for the bona fides of the subscription list.
At least 461,0001. in Australian gold is now due
or overdue. The Monarch, with 171,4001., has been
at sea 108 days; the Chili, with 61,1001., 100 days;
the Essex, with 56,1001., 97 days ; the Indian Queen,
with 10,0001., 97 days ; the Owen Glendower, with
141 600/, -94 days • the Annie WilSon, with 21,3001.,
93. days ; the Shalimar, with 97,600/., 84 days ; the
Nimroud, with 21,0001., 83 days ; the Suffolk, with
191,7001., 80 days ; the Result, with . 145,6001., 72
days ; and the Ocean Chief, with 40,6001., 69 days.
The exact amount of Specie shipped for the East,
by the steamer Colombo, which will leave on Mon-
day, is 282,3661., of which 4,0141. is gold and the
rest silver. The whole is on private account.
Annexed are the particulars : —For Calcutta, 108,7501.;
Hong Kong, 101,672/: ; Shanghai 35,8704 ; Madras,
28,214/..; Singapore, 6,600/. ; Ceylon, 1,200/.
Owing to the large supply of, Silver by the West
India packet the quotation has declined viz., to '
62d. per ounce standard. At this price buyers for
the Continent will doubtless come forward.
The. Gazette statement of the movement of the
Precious Metals for the week ending Wednesday last I
gives the following totals, viz. :—lmports of gold,
833,632/. ; exports of gold,. 635,821/. ; imports of
silver, 119,7914 ; exports of silver, 180,454/.
The Railway Traffic Receipts for this week amount
to .£485,499 16s. 4d. This amount has been earned
on 9,0671 miles, and is equal to £53 10s. 91d, per
mile.. The revenue for the corresponding week last
year was £441,953, acquired on 8,7856 miles, and
gave an average of £5O 6s. Old. per mile. The
increase in the receipts of the week is therefore
£43,547, or £3 4s. 96d. per mile.
The Funds to-day were weaker. After declining 4 per
cent., Consols closed k per cent. lower than yesterday.
Business in this and in every other department of the Stock
Exchange was very limited, and the tendency of prices
generally was drooping. The anti-French manifestations in
Germany are for the moment the principal cause of disquietude.
Attention is also directed to the financial requirements of
ear government. Comparatively new bills were negotiated
in the discount market to-day haw 2-1 per cent. Con.
!Lidera* activity prevailed. Not4i4F
et importance took

place in bullion at the Bank to-day. At least £461,000 in
Australian gold is *tow due, or overdue. The V 30,500 in
spade ex the steamer La Plata, reached the Bank this
morning, and is undergoing assortment for the bullion
brokers.—Daily News City Article Friday _evening.
The English funds have been languid to-day, but without
any material decline, a general increase of anxiety being
observable with regard to the tene of continental opinion
on the probable extension of the war. In the Foreign
Exchanges this afternoon there was no change of impor-
tance from the rates of last post. The corn market was
very heavy this morning, and sales could not have been
forced except at a further decided decline. The produce
markets during the
,week have continued without material
change ; but the demand generally is moderate, and the
existing political uncertainties still prevent buyers from
entering into extensive operations.—Times City "article,
Friday Evening. •
RAILWAY MAIIKET.—Oa Friday the Railway Market was
heavy from some speculative and other sales, and most of
the leading English stocks closed at a decline of to per
cent. The aggregate United Kingdom returns of traffic for
the week ending. June 11th, show an increase of £53,860.

The Times says that daring the last month a continental
contract has been in execution in this country for 60,000
bags of ships' bread. This would suffice for thirty sail of
the line for six months. The purchases of horses, coal, and
other materials has caused a flow of money to England as
one of the first consequences of the war.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET.-JUNE 18

The cotton market has been rather quieter to-day, but
prices continue very steady. The sales—including 400
Egyptian; 7-id to 9d ; • 400 flurat, 4Kd to 511—are reported
6,000 bales, of which 500 are on speculation and for export.

London, from Malta (ballast), which arrived here on
sue`
day, instant, reports that at daylight•on the morning of ow
day, at the entrance of this Galt', and near Cape Carabierno,
observed a frigate run foul of an English brigantine,
carrying away bowsprit, cutwater, head, and doing other
serious damage, on which the frigate took the said brigantine
in tow, and steered towards the Straits of Scio. A Hellenic'
steamer arrived this morning from Scio, reports the said
brigantine as anchored there ; that the frigate that cause%
the damage was a Russian ; that the master of the steamer
was offered £5O by the Russian consul to tow the
said brigantine to this port, where she is bound (coals)
that he consented to this, provided the Russian'
took on themselves the risk of the brigantine'
foundering on the way, as she was making some
water. This not being agreed to, the Greek steamer
left without her. It s supposed that a Russian steamer,
expected to call at 4yra in a day or two, will tow the wreck
to this place. The brigantine Rattlesnake, Stamford, °,I
Yarmouth from Hull for the Austrian Lloyd's, is supposn''
to be the English vessel. . Since my last report of the 31st
ult., the following Charters have taken place :--rThe
schooner Mystery, 102 tons, at 47s 6d orders ; schooner
Glyn, 138, at 42s 6d Bristol; brig Prospero, 144, at 5s
orders ; brig Hermione,' 176, if direct 425, orders 44s ;
brig Tanfield, London 40s 6d, other direct port, 425, °Mori
45s ; schooner Jonadab; 103, direct 42s 6d, orders 46s 6d ;
schooner Majestic, 140, to arrive from Malta, 455 orders.
Immediate wants are pretty well supplied. The next batch
of arrivals will not, I am afraid, stand so good a chance in
obtaining same figures.
