CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were es-
timated at 8,000 bales, of which 2,000 American were
taken on speculation. The market wag firm at previous
raga_ Tho a.loa rnroprieod 7,000 Afeerican, 200 Per-
cam and Maranham, at 6id. to 71d.; 200 Bahia, at 6icl.
to 7d.; 400 Egyptian, at bid. to ls. Id.; and 40 Sea
Island at Is. Bd. to 2s. ld. per lb.—Railway Shares were
rather firmer.

The sales of Wheat last week in the markets which
govern the duties were 114,961 quarters. The six weeks'
average price is 41s. 7d. per quarter.
The quarterly sales of Indigo have commenced, and,
owing to the recent unfavourable reports from India
concerning the crop, excite much interest. Messrs.
Jewsbury and Co.: inform us that the quantity declared
is 20,958 chests, including 8,151 chests of old goods,
bought in at, or withdrawn from former sales, and
2,070 chests in second hands. The qualities of Bengal
are about one-third good and fine, and two-thirds
middling and ordinary, the Madras two-thirds good and
fine, and one-third middling and ordinary; the Kur-
pah one-third good and fine, and two-thirds middling
and ordinary; the Binlapatam middling and ordinary.

Before the commencement of the sales, 1,692 chests were
announced as withdrawn, after which a parcel of fine
Bengal was offered at ls. per lb. advance upon last July,
rates; but after buying a few lots, the mark was with-
drawn, as also were some others, for which a similar
price was required; subsequently 9d. to 10d. per lb. ad-
vance was paid for fine Bengal, suitable for the Russian
market, including a parcel of the mark of R W, but the
middling and consuming qualities sold from 6d. to Bd.
per lb. above last sales' rates. They° w Kurpah that passed
to-day realized Bd. to 10d. per 'a. advance. The competi-
tion was moderate, there being as yet but very few
buyers present, either of the foreign or the home trade.
1,313 chests have passed to-day, of which 527 were
withdrawn, 345 bought in, and 441 sold.
The following aro the highest and lowest prices :-698
Bengal, 3s Bd. to 6s. 7d. per lb.; 63 Kurpah, 3s. sd. to
ss. 3d.; 21 Calcutta Fig, 33. 3d.; 4 Madras Fig, Is. 3d.
527 withdrawn. Total, 1,313 chests.
The Board of Trade returns for the month ending
the sth of September, give an increase compared with
the corresponding month of 1851 of 230,0001. in the
total exports of British and Irish produce from the
United Kingdom, the great textile branches standing
forward conspicuously, while there is a decrease in hard-
ware, cutlery, and machinery. Taking the year to Sep-
tember 5, we find the total of exports to be 47,009,1461.,
which is 148,8381. less than to the like period of 1851.
The month's imports of Coffee show an increase, of
Sugar a great decrease, and also of Tea, Much more
Rum has been received, but the consumption likewise is
greater. Of Tallow, more was received during August.
The consumption of Tallow considerably increased in
August, but compared with the same month of 1851
there was less Tea, Sugar, Tobacco, or Grain entered
for consumption. Taking the eight months there is
generally an increase. Of Provisions, we are evidently
producing more at home, for the imports have fallen off,
and the comfort among our working
with former periods, is a proof that there is no diminu-
tion in the consumption. Taking raw staples, such as
Wool, Cotton, and Flax, there is a decided increase upon
the year, although less Hemp has been received.
The shipping engaged in our foreign trade shows 1;
decrease upon the eight months inwards, but an increase
outwards. This is taking the total of vessels belonging
to all countries, but if we separate those owned by the
United Kingdom and its dependencies we have the fol-
lowing comparative results .

mated. Mexican were more offered. In other Secu-
rities the transactions were of no moment.
The English Funds have been steady, but scarcely so
buoyant as yesterday. Consols were 100* to f for
Transfer and Account. Exchequer bills of March have
been at 703. to 735., and those of Juno 68s. to 71e.
The Foreign Market has been rather heavy. Mexican
Bonds have realized 24f to and Peruvian 1031. In
the latter there is very little doing. Equador are
marked 4i. Brazilian Small have been at 101, and the
Scrip at Ito 14 premium. The Turkish Loan has been
at 8/ premium only, and the Swedish Loan 2i to 3i
premium. These small affairs now afford good scope
for speculation, but there are one or two heavy instal-
ments falling due in a few days. Russian Four-and-
a-Half per Cents. have been marked 1041, French Four-
and-a-Half per Cents. 104 25, and Dutch Four per Cents.

quoted 234 and the Old Threes are about 50i to
Railway Shares have been much brisker, and there is
an improvement again of 10s. to 11. per cent. in many
of the favourite lines. French Shares are more dealt in
also.

ANALYSIS OF THE CAMBRIDGESHIRE
HANDICAP.
(Concluded from No. 321.)

I

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR,—In continuation of my remarks upon this 10'
portant Handicap, I sball proceed with
SHERLEY'S

solitary nomination, Miss FANNY, 4 yrs, 6st 71b—who
has at various times shown some good running in the
presence of inferior animals; this, however, cannot 13.0,
taken as a sufficient warranty for backing her in tl
instance.

PRINCE
has but one acceptance of the Marquis of Waterford's'
LANCATER, 3 yrs, Est 61b, who is well adapted to this
course this race is run over, but has quite enough weigh'
to carry, considering his pretensions.
FISHER'S
13
lot will be represented by KING PEPIN, 3 yrs, Est 61w
who, if his running in the Column Stakes is to h°
relied on, ought to be forward in this spurt; and Eye,
3 yrs, sst 91b, who is weighted beautifully. She willlo
difficult to beat if brought to the post in first-rOO
condition.

W. SCOTT
will probably bring his solitary nomination, DEcErrrills,
4 yrs, Est 51b, to the post; but his running hitherto bt"
been of such a deceptive nature that I do not feel 1
dined to trust him on this occasion.

HARLOCK
vecepts with two of Lord Exeter's—PimEaßA, 4 Pri;
Est 51b, and Ilex, 3 yrs, 6st 11b. The latter will notes
do at a mile, and the former's chance is anything b,ll
first-rate, although infinitely better than that of b 7
stable companion.

DEATH
has a speedy three years old in preparation for t-
evtnt in CONVULSION, who at Est 51b will cut dol
nearly all the three years old division, and not be far
winning. He has been backed by several persons *o°
know what they are about in general; and as they 02f0
press the greatest confidence in him, I am inclined to
so to some little extent also.
