MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEW

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MONDAY.—The
Cotton Market has been dull to-day, without changing
prices. Sales 2,500 bags, chiefly American descriptions.
LIVERPOOL SHARE LlST.—Eastern Cc unties, 10 ;
Glasgow, Paisley, and Greenock, 181 ; North Union,
80. A dull market, little business doing.
We do not hear as yet of the arrival of the East
India Mail by the overland express.
We have several arrivals this morning of ship letters
but they are of an old date.

Gold in small quantitites is beginning to return from
Hamburg, as no profit can be realised upon it there.
We understand by private letters from Manchester,
that the houses which failed there to a very considerable
amount were in credit to an hour before they stormed
payment. The manufacturers in the neighbourhood are
extensive sufferers. The house connected with Holland
which failed, some few days since, to the amount of
thirty or forty thousand pounds it is said, have assets
sufficient to pay in full. The unfavourable state of
the British Market yesterday, owing to commercial
emba►rassments, caused a decline in Consols of per
cent. this morning. The mat'-et is still heavy. Con-
sols oreited at 89, soon alter; receded to .88/ for
the Account ; the speculators are anxiously waiting
for the intelligence by the overland exprese from India.
It is supposed that some delay bas taken place in the
mail berle forwarded from Marseilles. By the Ham-
burgh Mail which arrived yesterday afternoon the Ex-
change comes higher schilling, 1332 ; Gold comes the
same as per last post. Consols at present for Money
may be quoted 884 The intelligence from the
East being of a more warlike tendency, also has the
effect to depress the British Market. Exchequer

Consols just done at 881 for the Account.
ERRATUM.—In the City article of yesterday, for
" 70 shares and Consols," read " 70,0001. Consols."
HALF-PAST ONE.
During the whole of the morning the British Mar-
ket has been very heavy, and extensive sales of Consols
have been effected. One eminent broker sold upwards
of 200,000, since which the market has become rather
more calm. Consols which receded to 88i 8 for the
Account, has rather improved to 88} 8, and at present
may be quoted lower, for the Account, 88 i; Money,
888.
We understand that the failure at Manchester was
in consequence of the stoppage of the Commercial Bank
of England some time since at the above place.
