Deficiency

These figures are startling ; but 50,000 par week will be

seen to be within the mark, as during the past month,
without speculation, they have averagd over 70 000 per
week, and it must be borne in mind that the above calcu-
lation is on the supposition of our receiving the new crop
in quantity by Ist December, but if, as the American
papers say, owing to the backwardness of the crops, and
the fact of the Continent hating largely contracted for the
early receipts, we shall have no arrivals of moment until Ist
January, of course, the above deficiency will be enor-
mously increased ; and, as every well informed person
knows that the consumption of raw cotton is very rapidly
increasing in America and the Continent of Europe as well
as in Grew, Britain, it is evident, in the face of the above
facts, that nothing can check consumption and prevent a
panic, if not the entire stoppage of the cotton trade, but an
immediate advance of ld to 2d per lb. over present high rates.
If next American crop should be 34 millions, with in-
creased consumption everywhere, and exhaustion of stocks
it won't be enough ; but if it should, as is most likely from
the accounts, fall short of that, manufacturers will have in-
deed to look out.

The Grain Trade is in a very dull state. At the
Liverpool Market to-day the attendance of buyers
was very meagre, and prices of wheat and flour
were rather lower, without inducing purchasers.
The weather continues uninterruptedly fine, and
the crops exhibit the most favourable aspect. At
the London Market to-day there was a slow demand
for wheat, which, however, maintained its price.
Barley was in better demand, and oats were 6cl
dearer. Norfolk flour sold at 41s per sack. In the
General Pi:educe Markets a quiet business is doing
at steady rates.
The following is the report of te-lay's London
Wool Sales :-&-Messrs. Southey and Son, have sold
to-day. The attendance of both home and foreign
buyers keeps up remarkably well, and the whole of
the supply offered has changed hands at full
quotations.
There was a meeting of the Netherlands Land
Enclosure Company yesterday, C. Morrison, Esq ,
in the chair. The report stated that 2,800 acres
had been enclosed, the value of which was
£171,600, and that further land on the Brabant
side would soon be reclaimed. The last enclo-
sure had exceeded the estimated cost, but it arose
from unavoidable circumstances. There was
every reason to believe that the future enclosures
would be done at a very moderate cost. It was
expected that the land now enclosed would turn
out highly valuable for agricultural purposes. A
canal and barrage of the river was now to be con-
structed, which it was expected would cost £274,000,
the former of which work was expected to be com-
pleted before Christmas, 1858. It was intended
to make a call on the Si. original shares, in order
to forward the works, as the whole of the stipu-
lated sums had been called from the preference
holders. The calls would be 1/. at intervals. Some
discussion took place in consequence of some un-
founded rumour, which had depressed the shares ;
but they were dispersed by the statement of the
chairman, and the report was adopted.
The following are the latest quotations of
Foreign Exchanges :—Amsterdam, short, 11 10

The General Screw Steam Shipping Company
announce a repayment of 10s. per share.
A correspondent writes to complain of the con-
duct of the directors of the Australian Royal Mail
Company, who, he remarks, " have a surplus sum
of money that will enable them to return the
sharehollers 7s. or 10s. per share, and as the
whole of the vessels are now in her Majesty's or
the Hon. East Company's service, this money will
not be required for any other purpose."
Rumours that the Bank of France are likely to
lower their rate of discount from 51 to 5 per cent.
have lately been circulated at Paris ; but most
prudent persons refuse to entertain the idea at
present. It is stated that M. Andouillet, ono of
the officers of the Ministry of Finance, is likely to
be inducted into the post of Deputy Governor of
the Bank. We hope that this arrangement does
not involve the assumption by the government of
a greater degree of control over the movements of
the Bank.

About 40,0001. in gold is understood to have
been taken from the Bank yesterday for exporta.
tion to the Continent, in payment for silver,
making a total of about 170,000/ withdrawn
during the present week. The 20,0001. in specie
brought by the Columbia, from New-York, has
been taken for the same purpose.
The telegraphic advices from India, coupled
with the alteration of the East India Company's
rate of exchange, have induced increased firmness
in the market for silver. It is thought that the
remittances by the Ripon on the 4th August, will
reach a million.

The Nile has arrived from Hong Kong with
880,9001135. of tea on freight.
It is confidently reported thatlthe forthcoming
dividend on the North Eastern Railway stocks will
be as follows, viz :—Berwick, 5 per cent. per
annum ; York and North Midland, 4 per cent.
per annum; and Leeds Northern, 2 per cent. per
annum.

The half-yearly meeting of the London and
North Western Railway Company is called for the
14th of August.
The half-yearly meeting of the Midland Rail-
way Company is called for the 19th of August, at
Derby.

A special meeting of the London Indisputable
Life Policy is called for the• 10th August, to consider
the propriety of rescinding the contract of amalga-
mation entered into with the Bank of London and

SUGAR: In the early part of the week there was evi-
dently more disposition to purchase, and a considerable
business was done ; the market, however, closes quiet ;
the sales of the week amount to 850 hhds B. P. West India,
1,650 bags Bengal, chiefly Dates, at 56s to 58s 61, 900

368 to 37s 65 per cwt in bond.

MOLASSES : There is still no busiaess to report, and

COFFEE : The market being still scantily supplied,
transactions are limited to a small parcel of Jamaica at
85s to 935, 50 bags Rio at 51s, and 60 bags Bahia at 51s
to 56s per cwt.
COCOA ea SPICE : Nothing done.
RICE : Owing to heavy arrivals of East India descrip-
tions, and little disposition being shown to operate, the
market has ruled dull, and prices at the close show a
decline of 6d on Bengal, and 3(1 per cwt on Arracan ; the
sales are 6,800 bags Bengal, at 9s 6d for broken, up to 138
9d for fine, 4,500 bags new Necransie at Ile to its 3d,
and at the close of last week a cargo of 300 tons, fliating,

Rum ; Holders having accepted rather lower rates, 400
puncheons Demerara have been disposed of at our reduced
quotations. _ . _

The market for the Public Funds and Securities
at one period of the day was very depressed, and
declined one-eighth per cent. Towards the evening,
however, a better feeling set in and the fall was
recovered. Consols for Money closed at 901 to 90°,1,,
and for the Account at 001 to 90,1. For Exchequer
Bills, the closing rates were 6 to 1 dis., and the
New Three per Cents. 901 to Hi.
The demand for Money continues very active,
and temporarily increased stringency is ex-
perienced in the rates enarged for the negotiation
of mercantile paper. Teis occurring at a momEnt
when the public mind is excited by the course of
affairs in India has, with other adverse circum-
stances, including the withdrawal of gold from the
Bank of England, changed the confident feeling
lately entertained with regard to the favourable
tendency of the Mosey Market. Scarcely a day
passes without it is announced that a large quan-
tity of bullion has been removed from the
Bank in order to obtain silver for trans-
mission to India and China. This drain to
the East is likely to receive an important sti-
mulus from the advance in the exchanges ; and
unless considerable importations of gold and silver
take place, there is every reason to apprehend a
further depletion of the Threadneedle-street
vaults. Yesterday a sum of about .R. 18,000 was
taken away, and it is now stated that the Ripon
on next Tuesday will convey upwards of 4900,000,
chiefly to India. Considerable sales of stock have

Government se-

6ocoA:Nur OIL : 83 casks brought 47s to 47s 6d per
Cwt.

LARD: An improved demand has appeared, and upwards
of 400 tons, on the spot and for delivery, have been sold
at 66s to 683 per cwt.
JUTE: 4,000 bales sold at £22 to .427 for common to
fine, being steady rates.
BEEF: The late advance is maintained, and a fair
average extent of business is reported; but, as most of
the troop-ships are provided for, less activity is likely to
prevail for a time.
PORK: The sales exceed the average, and an advance
of 2s to 2s 6d per barrel is now quoted on the
.best
descriptions.
BACON: The demand generally, is far from satisfactory;
a few parcels of short middles have this week been taken
for London, where stocks are light, but the Irish demand
is unusually slack, and the inquiry from the country
districts does not confirm the expectation that the re.
duction of price would lead to activity.
LARD : The market has taken a sudden turn ; the dull-
ness of the previous two weeks has quite passed away,
and a very active demand has set in ; the sales are reported
at over 350 tons, and prices close firm, at an advance of
Is to Is 63 per cwt.
BUTTER: Grease is in fair request, at the quotations.
ler.Low : The demand being good and stocks moderate,
prices are well supported.
LINSEED CAKE scarce, and fully as dear.
