CITY INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday were
estimated at 3,000 bales, including 500 American
taken on speculation. The market closed heavily,
with but little change in prices. The sales com-
prised 2,500 American, 230 Pernam and Maran-
ham at 6!2d. to 7id., 20 Bahia at 6d., 30 Egyptian
at 64d. to 91d., and 400 Surat at 21d. to 41d.
per lb. Railway shares were dull at rather lower
prices. _ _ _

The Jamaica accounts by the Magdalena notice
the inauguration of Sir H. Barkly, the new Gover-
nor. It was expected that there would be a re-
imposition of the tariff; therefore, holders of goods
on which a heavy duty was levied were firm. From
St. Thomas's we learn, that although there had
been several showers intense heat prevailed. Ber-
muda had been visited by a severe storm.
There has been a good market for public securi-
ties, notwithstanding the uncertain nature of the
intelligence received from abroad, and the fact that
hostilities may probably have commenced between
the Turks and Russians ere this. Indeed, there is
a telegraphic despatch in town which asserts that
a battle has taken place at Galatz, and that the
Turks have been defeated. A Greek house has in-

formation that the number of irO;pS—TVhiCi;lias
passed over to Kalafat is really 30,000 men, and
this comes from a firm in that city. Still the pro-
bability that the new note, said to have been ac-
cepted by Russia, will stop further hostilities, in-
duces the Bears to buy back, and causes the public
also to go on with their money purchases. Consols
have been down to 924, and have once risen to 938
I. For account they are 938 to 47 after having
been 931. Bank Stock is recovering rapidly,
having been done as high as 214 and 215. India
Stock has been firm at 248. Exchequer Bills were
at par to 4s. premium, and India Bonds at 2s. dis-
count to ls. premium. The New Three-and-a-
Quarter per Cents. have been 938 to 942.
In the foreign market there is a better tone also,
and a rise has occurred in Mexican Bonds to 25
and 26k. Peruvian have been at 71k, being also
firmer. Buenos Ayres are 58, and Venezuela De-
ferred in. Spanish Three per Cents. have been
quoted 45, and the New Deferred 211 to 211.
Sardinian Bonds are steady at 921. Dutch Four
per Cents. have been marked 94g A. Nothing has
been done in Russian, but Austrian Five per Cents.
are at 94, being again 1 per cent. higher.
The Railway Share Market has been scarcely so
good as it was on Monday, but there is a fair busi-
ness doing. The lines most dealt in are York and
Berwick, Caledonian, Great Northern and Mid-
land. French Shares are a little weaker at pre-
sent.

The Gold Mine Shares have been rather ani-
mated at fully previous rates, but the Australian
Agricultural Land shares, and also the Peel River,
are lower. The Joint Stock Bauk shares are in
request, and rising.
