The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Sa tirday were
estimated at 12,000 bale:, and included 6000 American
on speculation. Prices of all descriptions were fully
maintained. The transactions included 8,000 American,
at 30. to 5 d., 2,000 Pernam and Maranham, at 4id. to
5d., and 1,000 Surat, at 2id. to 31d. Railways remained
firm, with a fair amount of business doing.
The Continental a-rivalA to-day ~xcite tar mwe in-
terest from tnetr eutlcents Luau tram µs y mer-
cantile details they afford, and the view taken is not so
favourable as of late.

Unit« d States advices of the l3tb instant report
favourably of the produce markets. A good business
was likely to be done upon the re-opening of the navi-
gation, and the Californian trade would be much
looked after, perhaps overdone, for, with all their
riches, the gold finders could not be ex-
pected to eat and drink, or use clothing
and necessaries to double the extent of their most ex-
travagant wants. The shipments to C.&lifornia, unless
emigration goes on rapidly, will soon outrun the con-
sumption, for every Pacific port was exporting to the
land of promise, and we are in the field with Brother
Jonathan.

The following is part of a report upon the iron
trade, received this morning from Birmingham:—
The excitement of quarter-day has now subsided
into a state of quiet activity. Both manufac-
turers and pig makers have sold freely, and the
works of the district are fully employed upon the orders
then or previously taken. The rates at which contracts
were concluded upon that occasion appear to have given
very general satisfaction, and are being gradually
acceded to by parties who are in the habit of waiting
till the close of the month to avail them-
selves of any shade of advantage that might
be obtained in a wavering market; we have not, how-
ever, heard of the slightest disposition to give way, but
the tone of those who cherished extreme opinions of ap-
proaching high prices is rather moderated, while confi-
dence is steadily reviving, and a well-maintained firmness
characterises the every-day transactions of the trade.
Thene is no alteration to-day in the Corn Market.

The embarrassment of another East India firm of
great respectability, that of Robert Eglinton and Co.,
became known after banking hours on Saturday. Scot-
land will suffer probably more than our own manufac-
turing districts. _ _

The Paris news had a partial effect upon the Funds
on Saturday, causing a reaction trom 914 to 9114.
This morning there is a further &slued change
for the vv,,rse, and more attention is paid to the
state of affairs in France. Nu one can form a definite
pinion as to the future, but the idea seems to be that
the Assembly will avoid-a collision, if it be realty ascer-
tained that the voice of the country demands a disso-
lution. Consols opened at 901 to 91, touched 91*, and
have since been marked 90114. The New Three-and-a-
Quarter per Jens. have been 914 to 92i, and the Three
per Cents. soi to 914. Bank Stock is worth 194. Ex-
chequer-bills have been 445. to 50s. premium, according
to the date. It is stated that the Schleswig•Holstein
truce has been broken by some peasants.
In the Foreign Market th, re is likewise a reaction.
Mexican are down to 251 and 25. We still conceive that
this is the result of over speculation for the rise having
caused too rapid an advance. Equador Bonds are 2i to 3.
Chiliau 91, and Grenada 151. Spanish Five per Cents.
have been 144 to 151-' and Portuguese Four per Cents.
26i to 27i- DuteN Two-and-a-Halt per Cents. 49 to
494; the Five per Cents. have been 77i and 78i, At
Amsterdam, on the 27th instant, the market was firm.
and prices were rather on the advance.
Railway Shares have been :Affei•ted by the reaction in
the Funds, and as the fortnight's account has to be ad-
justed to-morrow and on Wednesday, prices will lee-
Emile according as the speculators are Bulls or Bears.
The most p, rceptible reaction is in Caledonian, Great

Northern, Brighton, Midland, North Stafford, South-
Eastern, and the York lines, but the others are lower.
French Shares droop.
