CITY. TWO O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were es-
timated at 8,000 bales,
,of which 1,000 were taken for
export and 2,000 on speculation. The market was
firmer, but prices remained the same. The sales com-
prised 5,500 American, 200 Pernam and Maranham, at
std. to 61d.; 100 Bahia, at 5-0. to sid.; 100 Egyptian,
at SFI. to 6id.; and 2,000 Surat.at 21d. to 38d. per lb.--
The Railway Share Market was active at previous rates.
The extent of the sales made in the Produce markets
has been moderate this week, and unattended by any
excessive fluctuation in prices. The demand for sugar
seems to have improved a little. Rice has been steady.
No improvement has occurred in tea, and tsdlow has
been dull. Cotton keeps at about the previous rates.
Spices have had a steady sale. Upon the state of the
dried fruit trade Messrs. Witherby and Hanson report
as follows: _ _

- -
"Since December nine cargoes, with about 1,200 tens,
have arrived at this port, and five cargoes at Liverpool.
There will be very few arrivals to announce next month,
and probably for some weeks later. Of the eighty-one
cargoes of New Currants received here to 20th instant,
eight only were Island fruit. The total quantity on
which duty was paid in London during 1851 was about
12,730 tons, against 10,250 tons in 1850, being s°
increase of nearly 25 per cent. Although the Liverpool
deliveries in 1851 have, on the contrary, fallen off 500
tons, or about 8 per cent , yet the total consumption e,.
the United Kingdom during the first eleven months or
1851 has exceeded that of the corresponding months of
1850 by 2,497 tons, or nearly 14 per cent. A note of
the monthly clearances in London during the last five,
years, with the ruling price of Patras fruit, is submitted
at foot. From the commencement of the season until
the 31st December last, 78 cargoes of new fruit, in all
11,250 tons, had arrived upon a heavy stock of upwards
of 5,000 tons of old fruit. During the like period of the
previous season only 47 cargoes had arrived,
besides which we had 55U tons from the Continent,
in all 7,300 tons, upon a moderate stock of 2,300
tons of old fruit. The stock at the close of 1850 did not
exceed 5,000 tons, but owing to the unusually early Air
ments this season it reached on the 31st of December,
1851, about 8,600 tons, whereof only 1,600 tons con'
sisted of old fruit, so extensive had been the shipments
from hence to the Continent since the beginning of the,
present season. From the Ist January to the 31st or
March, 1851, we received here 3,500 tons, but, as Did'
mated above, the importations during the first three
months of this year will be much below that quantity,
so that at the end of March the London stock will Pre;
bably not much exceed that of the 31st of March, 1851.
Of raisins it is st,sted that stocks are much the ssrse,
as at this time last year, and the trade do not hold largely'
The West India mail steamer has arrived, with
1,300,000 dollars in specie.

The new Belgium loan is divided, it is said, between
the National Bank, Messrs. Rothscbilds Brothers, the
Soci6.6 GC:Let-ale, and the Bank of Belgium. Tl 3.e

The Amsterdam Bourse on the 21st inst. was 611 P
