MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool, on Saturday, were
estimated at 7,000 bales, of which 1.000 American and
800 Egyptian were taken on speculation. The market
closed steadily, at previous rates. The sales comprised
5,500 American, 1,600 Egyptian, at 61d. to 9d.; and 300
Surat, at 31d. to 41. d. per lb.—Railway Shares were de-
pre.zsed at lower rates.
Wheat in Mark-lane has risen 2s. to 3s. per quarter
to-day:
The American advises by the steamer Asia are
satisfactory in reference to trade. There was a
larger supply of bills on the market at the pre-
vious rates, and less specie was being shipped. The
total from New York this year to the 24th ult.
was 14,895,000 dollars. Last year to the same
date about 24,000,000 dollars bad been exported. An
estimate is made that the cod and mackerel fisheries
employed 138,000 tons of United States shipping
last year, nearly es much as in the whale
fishery, and within the last two years the
increase has been very quiet, Notwithstanding this
large tonnage, and the extent of the annual catch, the
United States import largely from the British North
American colonies. In 1851 the valu3 is stated to have
been 781,470 dollars, and this is adduced as a proof that
the fishermen of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are
not deprived of their markets. In reality, however, it is
no proof, for they would probably sell five or ten times
as much if their neighbours did not encroach.
The San Francisco news is good. The markets were
improving, and prices generally on the increase. In the
month of June 5.343,000 dollars had been exported,
being the largest amount ever shipped in one month
since the gold fields were discovered. The city of So-
nars has been destroyed by fire, and the loss would be
most severe. _ _ _

At Amsterdam, on the 7th instant, Dutch Stock was
rather feebler, but closed better, the Two-and-a-Half per
Cents. being 638. Foreign Stocks were duh.

The Funds have been rather unsettled again. The
information from America is differently interpreted.
Some think that no harm will come of the fishery -con-
troversy, others that the excitement will increase. The
fact, too, of Wheat having risen'is rather against buoy-
ancy in Stocks. Consols have been 99i3,- buyers, and are
now 99i for Transfer. For the September Account
they are per cent, above those values. The New
Three-and-a, Quarter per Cents. have been quoted 103-a
to 1, and the Three per Cents. par to per cent. over.
Bank Stock has been firmer at 231. The premium on
Exchequer-bills is barely so high, having been 75 to 78.
In the Foreign Market there is no particular change.
Spanish Five per Cents, have been at 49 to 49,4, and the
Deferred Three per Cents. at 21i to 22. Mexican have
been done at 94i and 25, and Ponivian Deferred at 59,
being rather lower for each. French Four-and-a-Half
per Cents, have been quoted 104.50 with the rate of
exchange at 25.40. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cent.
Bonds are rather lower, being at 64,- but the Four per
Cents, are up to 98. Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents.
have been quoted 104 i to 105. Brazilian Scrip is quieter,
at 24 premium.
Upon the commencement of business this morning
Railway Shares in some instances brought advanced
rates, but they have gone back since. The Foreign
lines keep steady.
Bank and Mine Shores have been dull.
