Thu official retuim of the Exports of the Precious
Metals from the port of. London, for the week
ending the 7th of August-, shows a total of 73,520
ounces of gold, and 2,600 ounces of silver coin,
Respecting the bankruptcy of Messrs. Carr Bro-
thers, of Carlisle,who have failed for about 700,0001,
we learn that a proposal will be made that they
shall liquidate under inspectorship, as that will be
the best course to be adopted, considering the ex-
tensive nature of their engagements, and the large
interests involved. By this course the creditors
will, as the assets are converted without interfering
with the arrangements of business, be enabled to
receive 20s in the pound, and the house itself will
not be injured in its position. From the investi-
gation conducted by Mr. Coleman, there is reason
to expect that a efutlous estimate has been formed
of the capabilities of the properties, and he would
not attempt to place before the general body of the
creditors a proposition of the kind, without being
fully assured of his al ility to accomplish it. If a
full dividend shall eventually be paid, the creditors
will have reason to congratulate themselves, and if
the surplus shall prove what it is described to be,
sufficient will remain to place Messrs. Carr Bro-
thers in a very favourable position.

In the London Produce Market this .week there
has not been much animation, and a tendency to
lower prices has been apparent. The chief excep-
tions have been those few articles directly in-
fluenced by the intelligence lust received from
India and China Sugar is extremely dull, and no
desire to extend their purchase has been evinced
by the trade, and a decline of fully Is 61 to 3s per
ewt. may be quoted on almost all descriptions.
Coffee has receded fully is per cwt., and Cocoa is
firm. The Tea Market has been inactive. Common
Congou is quoted at Is 2il per lb. Rice has been
quiet, and Spices are steady. Saltpetre has
advanced about 2s 64 per cwt., and Indigo has
also shown an improvement. The Tallow Market
has been very buoyant, and an advance of fully
2s to 3s per cwt. has been effected in the

value of P.Y.O , viz., to 66s 6d for present delivery.
Trade in the manufacturing districts is very steady
During the past week there has been a fair attend-
ance of buyers in Leeds, but their operations were
unimportant. The trade for the home market is
consequently dull, but for export there is little
change to notice, several of the houses being very
busy. There had been a steady inquiry at Brad-
ford for all descriptions of piece goods, and slightly
advanced rates wore current. Both long and short
wools fully maintained their previous value. At
Leicester business had been active, con-
siderable orders having been given out for
the home trade. Worsted yarns were firm,
and a moderate business was doing in long wools
at full rates. We can report little change in
the Manchester Market, and it has remained quiet
throughout, although, on the whole, with unabated
firmness. The political intelligence brought by
the Indian mail, although not of a decisive
character, is generally regarded as favourable, and
the commercial advices are also more reassuring
in their tone ; but we do not observe that they have
as yet had much effect on our market. In export
Yarns, prices are extremely stiff, but beyond a few
moderate transactions for Russia and Germany,
we hear of little doing in this department. In
40's mules for India there is said to be some in-
quiry, but it does not appear as yet to have led to
much business. Some Yarns for the home trade
are barely firm in value, such as the finer counts
for the Blackburn market, which are decidedly
eisier to bay. The medium counts in twist cops-
32's to 40's—are also rather dull of sale, while the
same numbers in pin cops appear to be scarce, and
are, if anything, a shade firmer. Doubled Yarns
continue very firm, but spinners are for the most
part deeply engaged for some time to come, and
are asking prices which can hardly as yet be
realised.

R octi ruf the movements in M ines during the
w.eek, the Mining Journal of to-day says :
Tee Mining Share Market opened particularly active,

The accounts received by the various foreign
Mining Companies during the week was of little
importance. The Alten state that their general
prospects were improving. The agent of the
Copiapo writes that the South Chitlow was still
sinking for a ventilation, and that in a few days
they hoped to cut the lode• The report made to
the Royal Santiago Mining Company is dull and
unpromising. From the St. John D.nl Bey they
write that the produce of gold at Morro Velbo,
from the month of May, was 23,302 oits or 22311 b.
Troy. The cost in the same period was 8,458/—
the profit 261. Great progress was being made in
repairing the damage done to the mine in March
last. From the Liberty mine they write that there
was a good prospect of making the mine pay, but
the debts must first be liquidated. The Chilian
Mills seemed to work satisfactory. The Mount
Carbon (Virginia) Company is now reorganised
with a capital of 80,0001. The East India Coal
Company's report was favourable. The amount of
gold sent from California to the United States in
the last pis months was 23,639,000 dollars.
During the past week several Railway Companies
have held their half-yearly meetings. At that Of
the North Landon resolutions were passed adopt.
ing the report, declaring the dividend for the half-
year at the rate of 5 per cent, per annum 'on the
preference shares, and at the rate of 41 per cent.

W. K. takes the present opportunity of thanking his friends and
the public for the liberal patronage with which he has been favoured,
and at the same time to inform them that to accommodate his ra-
pidly increasing business he has built an entirely new operating
room, which is admitted to be the finest in Liverpool. With the
increased facilities now at his disposal, W. K. expects that his
Pictures will not only sustain the high character they have already
attairgid, but even surpass his former productions.
