The market for Cotton et Liverpool vesterkiiy not
quite so active, but prices remained without change. The
sales were between 4,000 and 5,000 bales, including 1,100

There are varikais col.iectures and st.rrnises, calcul:,rions
and on dits, as to the probable terms which parties tendering
for the new loon will be inclined to offer, but, as
all of these are vague, and many of them interested, we
should be unwilling, even by inference, to appear to assist
those who must desire to see the market as much depressed
as possible. The payment of the instalments, even extended
as they are to the middle of October, will require about one
million per month, and unless the loan gets into very strong
hands, there will probably be a constant feedieg of the
market with stock, to the detriment of those who have in-
vestments at high prices. On the other hand, presuming
that the parties taking the loan are tolerably strong, and
that, from the stake they may already have in the tunds,
they will be inclined to keep the new stock, at least for a
time, we shall have, perhaps, a better chance of firm prices.
These are considerations which we may be sure will be
closely balanced in the minds of the acute capitalists who
determine upon bidding, and it is probable that the members
of the Stock Exchange will be nearest the mark. It might
happen, however, that no tender will come up to the mini-
mum of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and that the loan
may be taken at the Government terms in "slices," by some
of the parties present.
The English Funds have been flat again to-day, and there
is no rally upon the closing quotations of yesterday. Con-
sols have been 90 to 9014 for present transfer, and 90% 1,4
fo. account. The New Three'-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have
been quoted 92% to 92%, and the Three per Cents., 9014 to
903/i. Bank Stock is marked 203 to 204. Exchequer bills
have been quoted ss. to 10s. premium, and East India Bonds,
4s. to 10a. premium, showing a reaction in the unfunded debt,
which must be expected as the instalments have to be
made up.
The Foreign Investments have been very quiet, and are
flatter. Spanish Five per Cents. 24 7g, and Portuguese
Four per Cents. 331,4 to 34k; Mexican Bonds have been 22%,
and Brazilian 87 to 871 A ; Dutch Four per Cents. are 92%
to 923/.
For Railway Shares there has been a firm market, although
the business doing is small.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.

The arrivals of English Wheat since Monday, have been
considerably on the increase ; viz. 7,310 quarters, mostly
from Kent and Essex. To-day, the dhow of samples was
good, while the demand was in a sluggish state, at the late
decline in value. We had a fsir average quantity of Foreign
Wheat on offer, with which the trade was dull, at barely
stationary prices. With Barley, both English and Foreign,
we were well supplied. All kinds moved off slowly, and the
quotations had a downward tendency. The Malt trade
was very dull at a decline in value of is. per quarter. The
quantity of Oats was by no means large, yet the trade was
dull, and prices were in favour of the buyers. In Beans,
Peas, and Flour next to nothing was doing.

The supply of Beasts on sale being somewhat extensive,
we leave to report a very inactive demand for that description
of stock, at Monday's reduced currencies, the highest slue
for the best Scots, not exceeding 4s 2d per 81bs. There were
on offer 260 Oxen and Cows, 190 Sheep, and 13 Calves from
Holland. The numbers of Sheep were again very small,
while the Mutton trade was firm, and in some instances a
trifle more money was obtained for the best Old Downs.
Calves were in short supply and ready demand, at an advance
of from 2d to 4d per Ribs. In Pigs a steady business was
doing, at full prices. Milch Cows were a slow inquiry, at
from 161 to 181 10a each, including their small Calf.

7 Tir Ael friT-n-rlyT ON THE

HULL AND RAILWAY.
We regret to say that oLe of the most dreadful accidents
that has ever happened on this line occurred on Sunday
evening last. The mail train left the Hull station at 6 r. 31.,
for London, being drawn by two engines, the " Kingston "
and "York," and having eight passenger carriages and five
waggons laden with fish attached. The train had proceeded
to within about a mile and a half of Hessle, the first station,
where from some unexplained cause the second engine, the
" York," sprang off the rails, and dashed into the passenger
carriages attached to the " Kingston," forcing seven of them
off the rail with terrific violence, and smashing them to atoms/
The greater number of passengers were of course thrown out;
one, Mr. James Brown, of 'Jessie, tin plate worker, was
killed on the spot; another, of the name of James Waring,
of Dewsbury, was so dreadfully injured that he died at the
Coburg Hotel, at Resale. whither he was taken on the follow-
ing evening, and eight others are now lying at various
inns in hlessle, suffering from the fearful injuries they
have sustained. One of the carriages fortunately es-
caped the catastrophe which befel the others, but it Le
impossible adequately to describe the fear and conster-
nation which the passengers experienced at wit-
nessing the awful wreck arcund them. Such of the other
passengers as escaped, or were only slightly injured, were
c back to Hull by an engine with a carriage, which
was dispatched for the purpose, and the mail was forwarded
to London, by a special train from Hull, a few hours after-
wards. On 'Tuesday last an inquest on the two bodies was
holden at the Granby Inn, in Hessle, before Mr. ConYLer4
one of the county coroners, and a respectable jury, when
the evidence was fully gone into, but very little light
was thrown upon the origin of the .accident. Our re-
porter, however, visited the actual spot where it liar,
pened ; and although the line had been repaired, and
everything possible had been done to remove all trace
of the disaster, it appeared extremely probable, from 124
inspection, that some of the sleepers had given way
from the heavy pressure upon them, thereby displacing
the rails from their original position, and, consequently!.
causing the engine to swerve from the line. As a proof
that this was the probable cause of the accident, we may
mention that several of the sleepers in the immediate
vicinity where the accident happened had been raised, and
were found to be broken. The engineer (Sharp), Mr. John
Spicer, of Hessle, and several other witnesses, underwent A
long examination, but nothing was elicited from their testi-
mony calculated to throw any further light upon the subject.
The jury were, therefore, necessitated to return a verdict oci
accidental death, but expressed themselves perfectly eatistie
that no blame attached to any particular party.
The following are the names of some of the persons who
received injuries from this unfortunate casualty, so far as 10
have been enabled to ascertain :—John Brown, Hessle, dead i
George Waring, dead ' • Mr. Wood, from Wales, now lying at
the Coburg, with a broken arm ; Mrs. Batty, from Lew*
lying at the same place, suffering severely from internal in-
juries; Miss Emma Martin, of Barton, confined to the hour'
with a sprained uncle. It is only due to the company te,
state that the sufferers received the most prompt and kino
attention after the accident, and we have reason to belies'
that the funeral expenses of the deceased individuals. Were
defrayed by the directors.
From inquiries which we have made, we understand tho
I this is only the second severe accident which has taken Pace
since the line was opened. •
