CITY, Two O'CLOCK.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday
ciosed tamely, without alteration in prices. The
sales were estimated at 5,000 bales, (1,000 of which
were taken for export, and on speculation) com-
prising 80 Pernam and Maranham, and 200 Bahia
ere' also sold at 7d. ; 40 Egyptian, at W. to
Bid. ; and 100 Surat, at Aid. to sd. per lb. The
Railway Share Market opened dull, but closed
subsequently at an advance of I,per cent.
The public sales of Colonial wool are still going
Off very

Riskly.
Advices from Archangel state that on the Nth
ult. several vessels got out of the port, after hav-
ing discharged their cargoes. There were some
'United States merchantmen among the number.
NO English or French ships of war had appeared
at the mouth of the Dwina to blockade, and strong
batteries commanded the entrance. At Libau
nothing had been clone since the ca,pture of the
steamer by Captain Watson, and not a mercantile
vessel, it is asserted, remained in the port. Along
the Coast troops were stationed in the different
villages.
A letter from Paris to the Independance states
that a burning water called Eau Puteaux, to be
liquid
in shells, was about to be adopted. This
'quid fire-water, it is said, will carry destruction
among Whole battalions, and its use was at first
declined by the French Government, though re-
18°Ivecl
upon since because of the adoption of infer-
nal Machines by the Russians.
Tile future prospects of the Netherlands Land
mEnclosure Company are discussed in a pamphlet by
A. Van Dyke, who also offers a few sugges-
;ns to the shareholders. The view taken is very
oaZeurable, and it is recommended that proper
ulees should be taken in London, and that some
tt°4lPetent person should always be in attendance
give information.
