The demand for cotton at Liverpool yesterday was
limited. Sales 'were 5,000 to 6,000 bales, including 500
taken for ex-tiort. Prices were without material change.
Railway Slaares were quiet, but steady.
The sta.te of the Bank of England account for the
week to last Saturday was indicative still of a demand
for bullion, and probably pat t of this was taken for ex-
portation. The deposits, both private and public, were
withov.t material alteration, and the balance-sheet may
new be considered to be free from the influence of the
quarterly payments. In the discounts there was some
increase, and this roust be attributed to the disturbance
of credit by the recent failures, rather than to an increase
of trade. Compared with the previous week-, the changes

in the rates for bills of exchange on the principal Con-
tinental cities. Paris, 90 days, was 25 30 to 35 ; Am-
sterdam, 11 17; to 18 ; Tic....4uigl.. 13 51 to 51 : Frank-
fort, 1171 to 117 ; and Trieste, 12 38 to 42.
There is more firmness in the English Stock market,
evidently under the impression that the war will be con-
ducted with greater vigour. Consols have been 91 to
9173 for transfer, and 91t to for accoint. The New 3

Foreign Stocks are generally at about the previous
rates. Spanish continue heavy, and there is no inclina-
tion to do busness. The Certificates ars 41. Turkish
Bonds have been at 768. Chilian realise 102 to 1031,
and Brazilian New 4i per Cents. 03k. The old Bonds

Railway shares look better, and there has been an
improvement of about per cent, in some of the quota-
tions. These securities would probably rise as usual
about dividend time, but for political circumstances.
Foreign shares have been quiet but firm.
The Colonial and Foreign Mines are well maintained.
The Joint-Stock Banks have been at a slight advance,
and the South Australian Land are scarcely so good.

STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Manchester Guardian of this day.)

MANCHESTER, Jan. 26.—This has been a week of extremely
little business in most departments. It is indeed the dullest
week we have had for some time ; and the depression has
become sensibly greater since Tuesday. The condition of
various foreign markets has awakened the sense of caution,
and rendered it predominant among our commercial classes,
who aro restricting their engagements as much as possible.
BRADFORD, Jan. 25.—W001: There is a degree of quietness
in the market, arising from the small quantity consuming,
and an unwillingness on the part of spinners to buy at the
prices demanded. Noils and brokes are in good demand, and
the supply small. Yarns :—There is a steady improvement in
the inquiry for yarns.
LEICESTER, Jan. 25.—The general trade is much more de-
pressed than it was a fortnight ago, and many frames have
been laid down, consequently there is great distress felt both
in Leicester and the villages, by the population dependent on
the straight-down hose, the qualities of shirts, gloves, &c.
HUDDERSFIELD Jan. 23.—The market to-day was of a
similarly dull character as those held recently.
