MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 6 000 bales, of wliich 500 American were
taken for export and 1,000 on speculation. The market
closed without spirit. Prices remain without alteration,
except common Surat, which were nearly *d. per pound
lower. The wiles comprised 4,000 American and 100
Pernam and Maranhao], at 6* r. to 7d.; 800 Egyptian,
at 541. to Is.; 800 Surat, at 3.0. to 4td.; and 20 Sea
Islaud, at 14. 3i I. to ls. Bd.. per pound.—ln Railway
Shares a fair business was d at higher prices.
Upon the state of the Silk Market during the past
month Mr. El. W. Eaton reports as follows:
" The delivery or silk still shows an excess in the
average, with a considerable decrease in the stock, as
compared with the same period last year. In China
operations have been extremely limited, but in Bengal a
far better business has been done than is usual during
the week following these sales. The demand for the
finest frees for the continent still continues. In the
Italian market there is very little doing, and the stock
light. The Brutias and Persians received during June
have sold freely at rather improved rates. The un
cleared stock of Brutias consists of about 160 bales, and
of Persians equal to 600 ballots."
The foilowieg are particulars of the Metal trade fur-
nished by Messrs. Wm. Short and Co.:—

~ In rail iron a very large business has been done,
and makers are now full of orders for several months:
none of them will sell under 61. per ton, but parcels in
aecmd hands have been named at 51. 17a. 6d. Bars are
firm as a consequence of the advance in the price of
rails. Scotch pigs have greatly occupied the attention
of speculators and consumers. A large bosio,a, has
been done for three months prompt, at prices ranging
trin 4ls. up to 465. per ton; 45+. was paid today for
a considerable quantity, and 81 that price there are still
sellers."

Great temptation exists in the present plethoric state
of the money market to press on the notice of the pub-
lic, with a view to obtain subscriptions, several foreign
railway projects, which, however good in themselves,
might judiciously be placed second to other undertak
ings of home and colonial importance. There can be
very little doubt of the necessity of improved consrouni.
cation in Canada, and as little of the want of capital in
the West Indies. The Australian settlements may,
perhaps, be shortly able to execute, with
the slightest possible aid, their own public
works ; but experience shows us that, able or
not, local capitalists do not usually embark in doubtful
specalations; they prefer, as a general rule, to risk
their money in enterprises of a character perhaps
((pally hazardous, though more remote. In this way
we must account for so many new United States
,ehemes,,including canals and railways, being obtruded
upon us just now. Some may be good, others we feel
,d,,ssourriemdiure the reverse, and since there is a difficulty in

The English Stock Market has been very quiet this

considering the
reduction of taxation, would have raised
