LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, SEPT. 16,
The demand for Cotton this week being rather limited prices are
barely supported, though holders generally have refrained from
pressing sales ; the decline, however, is very partial, and confined
to the middle and lower qualities of American, the better classes
being saleable at full prices. Brazils are in moderate demand, but
full prices are obtained, particularly for the better qualities. Egyp..
tian is in limited demand, and is without change. Sea Islands are
difficult of sale, and rather lower. Surats are freely offered, and are
not readily saleable at previous quotations, though we make no alte-
ration. The public sale yesterday of 500 Sea Islands and 400 De-
merara was not well attended, and excited little competition. About
one-half of each description found buyers; for the latter fair prices
were obtained, but in Sea Islands a concession, varying from 14(1
to Id., was submitted to, the extreme decline in the finer kinds.
1,000 American have been taken on speculation this week, and 350
American, 340 Surat, and 240 Maranham for export.

A few days since a fatal accident occurred on the
works of the Great Western Railway, near Taplow, by
which one poor fellow was crushed to death, and several
others seriously injured. A correspondent asks whether
the Directors of these undertakings take any steps towards
proViding for the wives and families of these numerous suf-
ferers. During tlif, building of London-bridge there was
an accident fund.
