The Cotto❑ Mark tat Liverpool )(steal:ly was with-
out any particular m ivena, nt, but continued heavy; sales
3,500 bales. Railway Shares were lower, and with but
a limited business doing.
Tce weekly statomeot of the Bank of England to the
25th ult., exemplifies what has been before noted ureLr
this hi ad, as to the largeness of the monetary resources
of the country at the pre:cht time, and the commanding
position in which it is placed to prosecute mercantile
undertakings of impor:ance, provided it retains the bless-
ings of peace. The principal changes compared with the
previous week, are these:—

The business doing in exchanges has been limited
throughout the week, and there was no improvement
yesterday afternoon. It is not to be expected that Con-
tinental business will revive just yet.
There has been no material change of feeling in the
City with respect to Continental affairs, but there is
rather more confidence in reference to Ireland, about
which so much has been said this week. The declara-
tion of Lord Lansdowne as to the power of the Crown
to suppress any seditious movement is regarded as very
satisfactory, though there has never been any doubt of
this in unprejudiced circles.
Private lefterz from the Continent advise the suspen-
sion of payments by Messrs. Abraham Schaafhausen,
hankers, of Cologne, and Messrs. Lombard, Other, and
Co., bankers, of Geneva.
The exports of bullion from London have been rather
large this week, including about 20,0001. in gold coin, and
60,000 to 70,000 ounces in silver, nearly all to Holland,
Belgium, Antwerp, and France. The arrivals of specie,
however, entirely overbalance this, and the opportunity
of exporting silver against the valuable consideration to
be obtained abroad is likely enough to tempt our
merchants.
The Funds are fluctuating, but the demand for stock
still keeps the price of Consols rather higher for Money
than Account, whereas,!allowing for a fortnight's inte-
rest, the reverse should be the case. Consols have been
quoted 81* to -I- for transfer on Tuesday, and 81 to for
Account, being now about 81 to 4. Exchequer bills
have realised 325. to 355. premium.
The Foreign Bonds have been very flat, with the ex-
ception of Mexican which have risen to 15i 4. Portu-
guese Four per Cents. have been 14k, and Spanish Five
per Cents. as low as 104 to 11. The Three per Cents.
have been 181- to 20. Dutch Four per Cents. have been
marked 56 ex-dividend.
In Railway Shares there is not so good a feeling, and
the quotations have been in favour of the buyers both of
English and French lines.
