CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MONDAY.—The
transactions in Cotton to-day are 4,GCO bags to the
trade at our quotations of Friday last.
LIVERPOOL SHARE MARKET, OCT. s.—Bristol and
Exeter, 27 ; Eastern Counties, 10 9i, declined 2 ;
Grand Junction Half-shares, 941 ; Quarter Shares,
54 54 ; Great Western, 801 ; Half-shares, 44-1 1 ;
South Western, 513 ; North Midland, New, 10.
The news of the tall of Beyrout has caused a decided
tendency in shares to decline in value, and at the close
of the market nearly every description of Railway
Shares were offered at lower prices.

Tue letters and papers by the overland mail from
India have been received, their contents have been al-
ready published.
CALCUTTA MONEY MARKET, AUG. 12.—Money
continues to be plentiful, and rates of accommodation
easy. The Jane mail reached us on the 24th, the
unsatisfactory state of hffairs at borne, caused a decline
in some of our principal staples, and which, under an
overfliwing market, is not vet), likely to recover soon,
some portion of our present capital is finding its way
to China, in cotton, to be stored in the receiving ships,
or adjacent ports, to be in readiness for the
Canton Market as soon as hostilities should cease,
and which, in the general opinion, is not expected to con-
tinue beyond October, or December the furthest. Large
investments in opium drug do not cease to go on by
every vessel engaged in the smuggling trade. Exchange
rates continue at the previous low scale, until within
these last ten or twelve days ; the scale of exchange at
which agency bills for either private sale or remittance
has been regulated by the weekly report of the Cham-
ber of Commerce. Tile average rate for the first three
weeks was at 2s. to 2s. Old. for ten months' date, but
within the last week the rate has advanced to 2s. Old.
;at ten months' date, and it is possible it may yet go
114;lier. Bills against consignments, with or without do
cumeuts, at ten months' date, 2s. Odd. ; private bills for
remittance, ten months' date, average 2s. Old. ; six
months' sight, 2s. to 2s. Oid. ; three months' sight
I s. Ild. to 25., and a farthing less for every shorter pe-
riod. Public bills, though plentiful, have not experienced
so great a fall. Treasury bills, 30 days' sight, Is. 11d. ;
Bank bills at 23. per Company's rupee.
Government papers during the last dull month were
in :nuch request, and extensive sales effected at advanced
prices. There appears to be a large share of the trans-
fer paper in first hands, who are unwilling. to let them off
under 12 to 13 re. per cent. premium ; second and third
5 per cents. maintain their value, and are not likely to
glee way so long as there is an abundant supply of money.
Four per cents. stand at 3 rs. per cent. discount ; they
had comedown to 24 26, but tor some cause, which we
haVe not been able to trace, have again declined.

The prisoner, who did not seem much concerti'
fined 20s.

We have received Sunday's Journal of Antwerp :
BOURSE OF AMSTERDAM, OCT. 2.—The full of the
funds at Paris caused yesterday afternoon a reaction
in the Intcgrales, fell to 48i, to-day they im-
proved to 49. a 49, at the opening at the Bourse, but
several sellers appeared in the market; they again fell

the same ct.urse, firm at the opening, but at the close
became weak. The Actions of the Society of Com-
merce is 1601 1, and closed at 159 a The news of
the abdication of the King is continually the subject of
conversation.

There was not melt doing in the Foreign Funds,
the only operations were in Ardoin's Spanish, which
opened at 19,1 and remained at 19i, a 5-16 at the
dose.

Nothing official has as yet been published in the
