MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
(From The Sun of Saturday.)
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were only 3,000
bales; the market closing very dull.
There are not any late Colonial arrivals to-day.
The Exchanges were again lower yesterday afternoor.
The exports of the precious metals this week have been to a
very considerable amount indeed.
An importation of new potatoes has just been entered, ex
the Madrid steamer from Lisbon, and all in a sound state.
The return from the Bank of England for the past week
exhibits a decrease in the notes issued of 326,7651., or to
27,225,3351.

In the Rest there is an increase of 31,435/., or to
3,551,4831.

. .
The public deposits have been diminished by 826,4421. :
or to 5,034,189/.

In the other deposits there is an increase of 554,959/.;
or to 10,339,726'.

In the seven day, and other bills, there is a slight increase.
In the stock of bullion there is a decrease of 359,3111.;
or to 13,948,6811.

A further decline has taken place to-day in the Funds.
Consols for the account have been done as low as 901 A, but
they are now 903 i. Bank Stock has gone back from 205 to
203 w. Exchever-bills are at 4s. premium, and all the
other national securities are lower. And the tendency is
still to decline, notwithstanding there is a very current be-
lief that the present high prices to be realised will bring for-
ward most abundant supplies of corn of all descriptions.
As to Foreign Stocks little need be said. Mexican Bonds
have been offered at 21 M ; the Five per Cent. Spanish. at
2274 to 23 ; the Three per Cents. at 3314 ; the Dutch Two-
and-a-Half per Cents. at 56% 3/4 ; and the Four per Cent.
Certificates at 901,' lA.
It is very difficult to find buyers for Railway Shares.
Prices are lower to-day. All apprehension of difficulties in the
Money market may be considered as over, as connected with
the deposits for new railways. They have been made, and
without question, the state of Ireland alone excepted, is the
only point upon which there can be a peg to hang an argu-
ment upon to create distrust.
