11/10Iii.-.N and COMMERCIAL NEWS
CITY. TWO O'CLOCK,

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
clitited at 12,000 bales, of which 1:000 American were
taken for export, and 3,000 on Bp« ciliation. The market
was very active at advanced prices; Surat and American
were id. higher. The sales comprised about 10,750
American, 70 Perham and Maranham at 6d., 200 Bahia
at 6id., 500 Eg)ptian at 6d. to 1 id., and 500 Surat at
aid. to 4id. per lb.—Railway Shares were dull at lower
j,t ices.
Tho Indigo sales to•day have gone rather heavily.
Upon the prospects of the Currant crop in Greece we
rave the following particulars from Messrs. Witherby
and Hanson:—

"Currants, almost the only article in the colonial
market which had rot participated in the late general
reaction, have at length taken a start, and during the
last three weeks have outstripped all other commodities
in ,heir euddea augmentation of value. This has re-
sulted from intelligenea of the crop, butte in the Morea
and the lonian Islands, having teen attacked by a
disease or a Dow' and so destructive a character au to
?awe serious apprehensions as to the fate of the grow.
:ng crop—a disease akin to that which exhibited itself
last year in other countries, and is now committing
ravaaea in the vineyards of Sicily, Naples, and
Northern Italy. As on the issue of the Currant
crop depends not only the well-being; of a large commu-
nizy, but also much of the revenue of the Greek Go-
vernment, this fresh calamity so soon follorrieg the rain-
deranged crop 011850 and the losses from the low prices
of the present season, cannot but excite a feeling of
sympathy. The accounts from the places of growth
nearly uti concur in the opinion that over half of the
entire crop of the Moran and lonian Islands will have
been lost. It must net be concealed, moreover, that, es
thin season will undoubtedly be a .late one, there may
be a recurrence of the rain-ds.mame of 1850, end this;
apprehension is now giving a fresh stimulus to Currants
en the contieent, and driving up prices above the level
of our own."
There are accounts from Vienna which give the
Austrian revenue during 1831 at 223,252,038 florins,
end the expenditure at 278,420,470 florins.
The Stock Markets abroad were very steady at the
latest date.
The proprietors of the Commercial Bank of London,
at their meeting this morning, have received a very
favourable report. The year's profits are stated at
21,3081. up to the 30th ult., and a dividend at the rate
of 6 per cent. per annum, with a bonus of Bs. per share,
free of income-tax, was declared, leaving 3,0434 to be
added to the reserve fund.
The English Funds are very depressed again, and
business is chiefly for actual transfer, speculation con-
tinuing inert. Consols have been 100* to 100 i for
Transfer, and 1004- for Account. The New Three-and-
a•gairor per Cents. have been quoted 1041 to 1054;
and the Three per Cents. 1008 to 101, a decline in
each instance. Bank Stock is still rising, having
touched 2301 and 232. East India Stock is at 285 to
286. Exchequer-bills of March are 76e. to 793. pre-
mium, and India Bonds 91s. premium.
Foreign Securities have been very dull, and there is
want of buoyancy in the quotations. Mexican Stark

Spanish Bonds have realised 82 to 83. Peruvian DL.

The following letter has been sent by the Committee
of Spanish Bondholders to our Ambassador at Madrid:—
" To the Right Hon. Lord liowden, K.C.8., &c.
" My Lord,—At a meeting of the committee held this
day, which was summoned in consequence of your Lord-
ship being in London, I was directed to write to your
Lordship, to express the high sense they entertain of the
must efficient services rendered by your Lordship to the
bondholders in the late negotiation with the Spanish
Government, for a settlement of their claims. The
committee aro quite aware that all the success
your Lordship desired, and most certainly
deserved, did not attend the great exertions
your Lordship made on their behalf ; nevertheless
the committee Red their constituents, the bondholders,
can never sufficiently appreciate the zeal with which
your Lordship applied yourself to enforce a due sense of
their rights.
" The committee wish me to ascertain from your
Lordship whether it would be agreeable to receive a
deputation from them, to express verbally to your
Lordship their gratitude for the past services your Lord-
ship has rendered to the bondholders, and also to re-
quest, if opportunity offer, your further aid may be
given to any endeavour which may be made to obtain a
recognition of the certificates issued by the various com-
mittees for the portions of arrears of dividends not
funded by the Spanish Government.
"I have the honour to be, my• Lord,
" Your Lordship's most obedient humble servant,
B. COLLETT, Secretary,"
Lord Howden's reply is as follows:--
"Hereford-street, July 25, 1852.
"Sir,—Having come to-day to London, I had the
honour of finding your most kind letter. The circus-
stance of my not having been in town, will excuse me
for not having instantly answered it.

VICE CHANCERY.—(THIS DAY.)
THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY V THE
EAST AND WEST INDIA DuCKS AND DIRIVINGLIA3I
JUNCTION RAILWAY COMPANY.---JUDGMENT,
This case, winch was fully reported in The Sun of
Friday last, again, came before his Honour Vice-Chan-
cellor Parker this morning for judgment. It wili be re-
collected that the case stood over for the purpose of some
plan being agreed to between the engineers of the two
companies for forming the junction from the plain:iffs
line to that of the defendants, the objection to which by
the latter was the cause of litigation.
Mr. DANIEL stated, at the sitting of the
Court, that
the parties were making tome arrangement,
and it NV6;
possible that 411 agreement would be come to without
prejudice to any of the
partier. Ho had,' therefore, to
a•zk his Honour to let the case stand first in the p4per
for Thursday next, when the parties he bad no doubt
would be sgreed upon a plan. -
The CAKKI on he other side agreed.
His iloNoutt stated that he thought he must refer the
case to the Ma,iter, but the case could stand over for the
day mentioned.
The matter then, dropped.
