There is no particular feature to-day in City affairs,
and the only authenticated stoppage is that of Mr.
Peter Cruilishank, West India merchant. There are
various rumours, but we shall carefully avoid particular
reference thereto. It is bad enough in these times to
have to record facts.
The public securities have been further depressed,
and there is a decline of full k per cent.
There needs now very great exertion to keep up the
market, and cash bears too high a rate to be freely in-
vested. At the same time, Exchequer-bills are rather
better, viz., 19s. to 15s. discount, and it is a question
whether this arises from the greater ease in the Money
Market, or from the impression that a funding will be
resorted to. Consols have ranged from 81 to 801 for
present Transfer, and from 814 to 80i for Account. The
New Three and-a-Quarter Cents. have been 81 to 80i.
Bank Stock is worth 185.
The Foreign Market is heavy. Portuguese Four per
Cents. have been quoted 21i ; Spanish Five per Cents.,
16;, and the Three per Cents., 264 to 27. Dutch Four
per Cents. have been at 81. The Mexican Minister
Plenipotentiary has called upon Messre. Schneider, to
pay part of a dividend from the funds in hand.
Railway Shares have been very flat.

31:0NEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
no Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet.
The .sales of the week are 22,200 bales. The market
has been firmer this week. Stock, 420,000 bales against
571,300 bales at this time last year.
For Railway shares there was rather a better inquiry.
The Bank of England returns are this week of rather
an important character, and we give them at more than
the usual length. Another week of Peel's Bill and it is
our firm conviction that there must have been a suspen-
sion of discounts, such would have been the demand upon
the resources of the Bank in consequence of the timidity
and indisposition to accommodate in the ordinary chan-
nels. In all probability now the Bank has the power to
increase its issues, other discount establishments will be
anxious to compete with it for business, and hence a
gradual relaxation of the pressure may occur. The
notes unemployed were not much over 11 millions, as
the Bank was compelled to make use of them to meet
dividends, and to make advances upon other securities.
The return is well worth attention :
