CITY, Two O'CLOCK.
The Cotton Market in Liverpool closed yester-
day with a hardening tendency, and prices of
Li:rican descriptions were tight—in many cases
per lb. against the buyer. Other kinds
hoot change. The sales were from 8,000 to
42°00 bales, comprising 300 Pernam and Maran-
i,4l, at 60. to 70.; 300 Egyptian, 614 d. to 91d.;
ii:uu Surat, 3id. to 41d. ; and 40 Sea Islands,

ue Position of the Sugar Market has attracted
58 en attention recently that it may be interest-
fit° glance briefly at it, especially as considerable
I'4e tress is again observable, after the check im-

of d,t .temporarily by the raising of the Bank rate
count. The supply, in fact, is very inade-
tat o, compared with former years, and the con-
of7tion, on the other hand, is large. The stocks
the gar at the four chief ports of Great Britain, on
lat instant, were as follows :

'the probable course of grain prices Messrs.
44114 C. Sturge of Birmingham write as follows:

Which laid most of the heavy wheats ; notwith-
Nag this, our prices declined from 4s. to 6s. per

4014.-"ua consequence of having so little demand for
Vtb'e consumption of which must have decreased,

Itii4de in this country for the latter, caused rather
Ntui „etl reaction in price, fully amounting to the pre-
ht "pression. Since the 25th the weather has be-
el'ernarkably fine, and a large breadth of grain has
titseitteelred in excellent condition ; this has rather

440 ether information drops in concerning the
tototof Count Nesselrode's circular to the Russian
kitsh at the different Courts, and this corrobo-
-4,41t46 'view that it is of a pacific character.
kihitelels German organs, that had a strong but
44 d leaning towards Russia, admit that peace
144 become a most urgent necessity for Russia,
that, if it continues its present immense
iltti) they will paralyse her power for a
keit!iree. England and France, however, it is

Contended, have need of peace also, and
11111 eing the case the resumption of negotiations
this winter is confidently expected. Prussia,

Russia that she must renounce the idea of

t 41141 this was written before the capture even of
Lalekhoff, and that we are quoting from a
o).14 newspaper, it is sufficiently significant as
ilim.44t is the feeling in Russian circles, and
4111,64°7* is the favourable opportunity to push our
