Livdrpool Cotton Market—This Day,

Market quiet. Sales, probably 4,000 bales.

THE GEORGIA.--We are informed that the Go.
vemment has deal/led to interfere in the case of the steamer
Georgia, seized off Lisbon by the Federal frigate Niagara.
ARRIVALS OF CONFEDERATE COTTON.—The
Index publishes a return from the Liverpool Customs Bill
of Entry, from which it appears that in July and August

Liverpool.

ACTUALLY ANOTHER SHAKSPERIAN MEMORIAL
PROPOSED I—lt is proposed to raise funds by a
penny subscription for a shrine and statue to Shakspere on
Primrose-hill at a cost of £2,400. The Urban Club seems
to give the plan its sanction, and Mr Phelps is the Presi-
dent. After the two signal failures of the London and
Stratford Committees, the gentlemen who form the coun-
cil and committee of this "Penny Memorial" must cer-
tainly possess a greater amount of enthusiasm than is
usually assigned to practical Englishmen,—The Reader.
