MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS
CITY, QUAI:TER TO THREE•

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool, on Saturday, were
5,000 bales, of which 1,500 were American for export.
The market closed with some animation, and the prices
of American and Surat were a point against the buyers.
The sales included 3,500 bales of American, at sd. to
60. per lb.—Railway Shares were steady. There was
a gradual but steady improvement in this market.
A considerable degree of sensation was produced
among the merchants and others interested in the
United States trade in consequence of the news of the
loss of a packet-ship, Stephen Whitney, commanded by
Captain Popham. The loss of the captain is, indeed,
much regretted by a large circle of friends. It is to be
hoped that the accounts as yet received are much exag-
-421„

gerate.
There are not any arrivals from the Colonies to-day.
It would appear that the West India interests in the
provinces are bestirring themselves to force upon Go-
vernment some measure of relief for them. A strong
deputation waited upon Lord John Russell and Lord
Grey on Saturday, which included representatives of all
the principal ports of the kingdom where the West
India trade is carried on to any extent.
It is reported this morning that a failure of some 0011
sequence has occurred at Leeds. Our inquiries have
not led to the receipt of any information affirming or
contradicting the statement at present.
The letters received from the iron districts this morn'
ing are not by any means of a satisfactory character'
Business is represented as being in a languishing
condition. The impression appears to be that
prices will fall. There is not a doubt expressed
but that abandonment in part, or in whole, of railway
extensions have given an unfavourable turn to the
market.
There is a report current just now of a house of some
magnitude not being able to meet its engagement; as yet'
however, all drafts presented have been paid.
The rumours just noticed had an immediate effect on lb.
market for the public securities, and a fall of / per cent'
in Consols has taken place—the price for the Account
having opened at 84j, touched 85, and in an instant IC
receded to 841; for Money the quotations went back
from 85 to 841. Exchequer bills fell from 2s. premium
to ls. discount. India Bonds were at 20s. and 135. CUP
count. The Reduced Three per Cents. and the Three.'
and-a-Quarter per Cents. have fallen to per cent.
In the Foreign market, the value of Austrian has beef
quoted at 101; of Brazilian at 78; of Mexican 15i
the Portuguese Four per Cents. have ranged from
~214
to 201; Venzuela is at 35k; and the Two-and-a-A'
Dutch are at 54,i. •
The Railway Share market is heavy just now.
THREE O'CLOCK.'
POSTSCRIPT.—It is with very considerable coaceril
that we have to announce the fact that that yell
large firm of Messrs. Trueman and Cook have this dal
been compelled to suspend payments. From the
immense connexions of the house as broltef*
&c., the firm bad immense annual dealing:"
with the mercantile interests connected with the sist.
and West Indies, the Mauritius, and indeed with almost
all the principal colonies, and with foreign countries. •x:
is said that the liabilities are very large-300,000L
lea' t, but it is known that they have immense smolt°
of produce and other assets tc ease off the balance.
