MONEY and COMMERCIAL "NEWS.
CITY, Ql, ART ER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 4,500
bales, of which 1,200 were American for exportation.
Prices were steady. 4,000 bales of American sold at sd.
to 6d. per lb. —ln Railway Shares a fair amount of
business was done, and at better prices.
Most, of the provincial journals received daily from
different parts of the country contain comments upon
the state of the country in its present monetary crisis ;
but very tew of them indeed appear to consider only,
or at least principally, local interests. It is somewhat
singular to see how some of them take up the cudgels
against the remarks made of late by the" leading journal.',
However, there is one point to which the deepest and
universal attention is drawn, viz., the meeting of Parlia-
ment, and the measures to be proposed for the relief of
the commercial classes of Ireland, of the East and West
India colonies, and of the Mauritius.
There is not a rumour current to-day of any imme-
diate large suspensions here. In most circles great
reserve, indeed, is manifested in replying to any pies-
tions of the tenour referred to. From Manchester, we
regret to learn that an uneasy feeling prevailed there.
A firm, said to be connected arso with the Manchester
and Glasgow trade in one of its departments, is
talked of.
Advices from St. Petersburgh received this morning
speak of monetary difficulties there. No important
failures are talked of. Cash was worth 8 per cent.
Accounts of September 20 from Rio de Janeiro state
that the mercantile markets were without any particular
alteration. The Exchange was at 270. From Buenos
Ayres there are dates also of Aug. 28. As far as the
advices through this channel can be relied upon, it
would appear that the Monte-Videans are as much at
variance as ever among themselves,
There have been some large sales made this morning,
still Consols for Money and Account are now firm at 841.
Exchequer-bills have varied from 2s. discount to Is.
premium. The small bills have realised 7s. and are
now 3s. premium. The Reduced Three. and-a- Quarter
per Cents. have been heavy. India Bonds are at 15s.
discount, and Bank Stock at 187 to 188.
The Spanish Three per Cents. have been taken at
271, the Mexican at 151 the Portuguese at the
Dutch Two and a-Half per Cents. at 531 54, and the
Four per Cent. Certificates at 82-,7- 4. Business is very
slack in the market.
The Railway Share Market continues in an inert
state, comparatively speaking. The lastest prices are
