CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti•
mated at 4,000 bales, and consisted of about 3,000 Arne'
ricer], 100 Pernam and Msranham at sd. to 611, 20
Bahia at 5,P., 150 Egyptian at sid. to 7id., and 600
Surat at 2,1 d. to 30. per lb. The market closed steadily
at previous rates.—Railway Shares were dull and gloomy,
and prices had a downward tendency.
Business, generally, in the City is complained of as
being dull, but at the current prices, there is a good deal
of produce taken for consumption.
Bills were taken at a slight decline yesterday after-
noon on Paris, Antwerp, Amsterdam, and Trieste, bat
/lambi:ugh was firm, and Frankfort steady. There was
a demand for paper, and a short supply, but this is ex•
petted to be only temporary, and arises from the ding'
nished exports usual at this season. The corn trade is
not likely to be active as respects a demand from this
side, prices in most of the German ports, as well as 10
Belgium and France, being above our range, and offering,
therefore, no inducement to ship.

The Amsterdam Stock Market for home securities'
on the 19th instant, was well supported. Spanish had
receded a little, however. Brazilian Bonds were in more
demand.

The London and Westminster Bank meeting has jolt
been held, and the following encouraging report hal
been made :

" The shareholders will perceive from the statamentS
attached to this report that the net profits of the bank,
during the last half-year amount to 41,993/. 7s. 9d.
" Out of these profits the directors now declare a divi•
dend for the half-year, at the rate of six per cent. per
annum on the paid-up capital of 1,000,0001.
" They also declare a bonus of eight shillings per
share being equal to two per cent. on the capital.
'• After these payments are made, the surplus fund will
amount to 104,1521. Is. Id.
" The three directors who go out by rotation are Mr.
Alderman Farncomb, Mr. Alderman Salomons, M.P.,
and Henry Bosanquet, Esq., all of whom being eligible,
offer themselves for re-election.
