MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY. TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated
at 5,000 bales, including 1,000 for export and on speculation.
The market closed quietly.—Railway Shares were active at
advanced prices.
The Bank of England returns afford the strongest possible
evidence of the abundance of cash, as we have on former oc-
casions shown. In one week, it is true, 3,738,0001. was with-
drawn for the payment of official salaries and for dividends,
but of this 2,461,0001. was immediately returned by the re-
cipients, chiefly bankers and capitalists, and placed to their
drawing accounts. We find also a very marked diminution
in the discounts or loans, for as bills run out fresh
applications in these days of plethora do not
come in, and loans, according to the usual prac-
dee, are repaid when the transfer books open. Another
item deserving of notice in these returns is that of Govern-
ment securities. It is alwoys difficult to fathom precisely
the movements indicated by the rise or fall of the "Se-
curities," but the belief is, that the Bank has been a pur-
chaser of stock and Exchequer-bills lately, as well as a lender
on them. As to the bullion, it !arm .it.l2oe.k
eonsequene. i,c quaiLerly payments it is no longer on a
par witn the note circulation, the last-named being more
than a million in excess. When we reflect, however, that
during three days this week, no less than 400,000/. in the
precious metals, and chiefly in gold, was received, we see no
present check to the increase. The Australian advices by
the Overland Mail to the middle of April, as noticed yester-
day under this head, justify the expectation of a continued
large yield of gold, and California sends as much as ever to
the United States, a fair quota finding its way to Europe in
payment for merchandize. Silver has been rather more in
demand this week for exportation to the Continent and to
the East Indies, and all that arrived by the West India mail
steamer has been sold at an advance of 1/Bd. per ounce.
Compared with the previous return, the changes in the
Bank of England accounts are as follow :

There was a slight decline yesterday afternoon in the rates
for bills of exchange upon the principal continental cities.
Pans, es day., was taken at 25 4714 to 50; Amsterdam
12 634 to 1 'llamburgh, 13 9% to 934 ; Frankfort, 120%
to 121; and Trieste, 12 4 to 12 8.
There are advices by a direct arrival from Port Philip to
.fer ehgn ,The Overland Mail, yesterday, brought rather
atei hews,._ but the following may be interesting:—
"Gold has still further declined this week. The market
opened at last week's closing price, viz. 595., and during the
middle of the week it fell to 58s. It afterwards rallied to
58s. 6d. The cause of this slight advance in price was
owing to the arrival of a number of purchasers from Adelaide,
who from their operations have tended to keep the price to
58s. 6d., at which it closed.
"Since the shutting out of Sydney as a profitable market
for some of our gold, caused by the stringent decision of the
'banks as to
-the advance on and discount against gold, we have
had an unexpected field for speculation opened up to us
in Adelaide. There is a vast difference, however, in the
confidence- of the parties operating for the Adelaide
market and those for the Sydney market; and Which
indicates the degree of doubt that exists as to the contili
ante of the tempting lure held out to speculators by theil
Assay and Bullion Act of South Australia. The principal
purchasers are from Adelaide, and all seem anxious
tempt-
in; mif
hold of gold, so as to forward it to realize the present to
get
effectsocth-
in; price of 68s. We can easily foresee the
prices, and the disappointment and loss that must inevit-
ablys follow such a course as a Government stepping
forward to dictate to bankers and merchants how torgu-
late and conduct their monetary matters. The quantity of
gold that will be forced into the Adelaide market 'within the
next month or two will test the soundness of their views in
interfering with the currency. Already the tocsin of war, has
sounded in the repudiation of the Act by the manager of
the branch of the Bank of Australasia at Adelaide.
The amount of bullion exported from London direct
during the week, to Thursday last, was 14,500 ounces of
silver, and 21,9601. in gold, the latter to the Cape of Good
Hope, the Mauritius, and Sydney.
