MONEY and COMMERCIAL 10/11

CITY, QUARTER TO TlllO
The Cotton Market at Liverpool on Saturday
steady. Sales 2,000 bales, of which 200 were 01111
culation.—ln Railway Shares there was but little ew
and prices were considerably lower.
There are no arrivals from any quarter, and the!
tinental news is not of particular interest. The i
ei
received by the Britannia steamer advert to the °1
tion of trade in the United States as being rethwiet
vourable, and money easy ; consequently the: nh
failures here will not be so severely felt as r" t
expected. u d
The corn trade is very slow again, and there •
cline in prices, with large arrivals.
ttO
The Money Market continues stringent, but the h
yet hopes of a partial restoration of ease as the p,
goes on, owing to the circumstance of very beatas
ments on the Consol settlement, the eight milli°11",0
and the advances from the Bank having been 0113'0
last week. The want of money, however, it Old
observed, is not the present evil ; it is the WO (1.
