CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool was dull again yes-
terday, and closed very heavily. American sorts were
1. pt r lb. for ord., and mid. and other qualities under-
went lese chane.e. American were 60. to 7 d. per lb.
Total ties 1.500 Wes. RaL way Shares generally de-
clint-d, and the markt t closed very flatly, with a consi
derab;e amount of stock offering.
The steamer from New York is looked for with great
inten,st, ard perhaps we might add, with some anxiety,
but there ere many parties who yet hope that the mer-
cantile community in America may not have suffered
much from the stoppages known to have occurred here
up to the period of the last accounts received out. How
the more recent reverses will be borne remains to be seen.
The firm of Perkins, Schlusser, and Mullins, to which
we alluded yesterday, has extensive connexions both
with Russia and India, and the liabilities are about
250,0001. The whole of their remittances from India
were, we believe, upon Reid, Irving, and Co. The West
India house spoken of has publicly contradicted the
report circulated so generally yesterday. At Man-
chester several houses have succumbed to the pressure.
The discount houses are still doing very little busi-
ness, and require more than the usual number of names
to bills, or some collateral security. Messrs. Sander-
eon are daily receiving large sums from bills falling in.
Messrs. Cockerell's estate is said to promise very fairly,
but a winding-up is a sad affair where property has to
be realised in periods of mistrust.
There are accounts of July 25th from the Cape of
Good Hope. On the frontier cattle stealing was still
carried on, hnd the effect of the reverse sustained by
our troops at Burn's Hill had been to alter the deter-
mination of the Chief Pato, who was previously in-
clined to surrender himself, with his horses, guns, Sce.
The Stock Market is looking rather firmer again, and
there is a decided improvement in the tone. Consols
have been up to 854 a for Money, and to 86 and 86i
for Account. Exchequer-bills have realised 2s. to 6s.
premium. The statements relative to Messrs. Cockerell
and Sanderson's have had a good effect
The Foreign Market is totally inactive. Spanish
Three per Cents. are 281, Mexican 19, and Brazilian
Small 80. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are
54 to 54k.
Railway Shares have been dull again, but rather
firmer.
