CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool this week has
been dull, and at the decline noticed in our daily re-
ports. The sales of the week are 21,700 bales. The
stock is 413,470 bales, against 614,600 bales at this
time last year. The Railway Share Market was flat at
Liverpool again yesterdiy.
The following are the principal features in the Bank
of England return for the week to the 9th inst.:—

Bullion now 8,408,750
Decrease 156,557

Decrease ... .

It will be remarked that the Bank has been drawing
In its notes preparatory to the dividend payments, a
movement which has no doubt progressed still more this
Week, owing to the large amount of loans falling due
and which, upon stock, have been rigorously demanded
to be repaid. The reserve of notes will for this reason,
no doubt, show an increase by future returns, while we
are still of opinion that the bullion decrease arises en-
tirely from the larger reserves kept by our bankers.
The foreign exchanges were firm yesterday afternoon.
There are no late arrivals.

The Pnblic Securities have been fluctuating. Consols
have realised 814 to 801 for present transfer, and 82 to
814 for account. The New Three-and a-Quarter per
Cents. have realised 81} to 801. Bank Stock has been
at 182. Exchequer-bills are 15s. to 235. premium.
The Foreign Securities are dull. Spanish Five per
Cents. are 16f, and the Three per Cents. 26. i. Portu-
guese Four per Cents. have been 20 to 21k, and Bra-
zilian Small 76. Mexican Stock has been at 171 to 18.
Some of the Railway Shares have been rather better,
though with a small business doing; but it is still to be
remarked that the heavy lines are difficult of sale, and
least negotiable even at reduced prices.;
