1 -0 sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were
-.000 to 3,500 bales, all to the trade. Prices were rather
'Vier, the market being heavy. Railway Shares twere

itsluesa was done.

Ira the circulation of notes at 32,168,100 francs from
2017 26 to June 10, and the discount operations at
~,,,,,997,834 francs.
i we have been requested to state that the article which
oretred in last night's Sun, respecting an alleged de-
toliraiton of war against Spain, has given an inducement
th..znernhants connected with' that country to withdraw
W®-I Produce from the market. Thus some articles
held for fuller prices, which yesterday morning
Ze freely offered.
tia'he Committee of Spanish American Bondholders
the.% received a discouraging communication from Peru,
fGovernment of which has exhibited the greatest
Priess, and has not even replied to the communications
14 Messrs. Maclean, Rowe, and Co. The Minister
it
lad um a, Mr. Adams, will be requested to interfere, and,
eed, Lord Palmerston is stated to have given instruc-
ti°4,l to that effect some time back. Complaints are made
th.
ao.' the Committee did not publish the communication
me days back, when it came to hand.
shW_ e take from the American advices, received per
"'shier, the following information upon financial
Inatter,:__
a: Nothing of interest has transpired in official or cora-
strre,ittil affairs during the past week. Operations in
ies-' gs have been to a limited extent, but prices for
theerial of the fancies have improved. Notwithstanding
ea,... arge shipments of specie, the money market is
f..lTParatively easy, and no apprehension is at present
fo`lt relative to the drain. It is utterly impossible to
t 113,2 any opinion as to the probable extent of the ex-
w.sation of precious metals during the next month or
eli°4 ,a 1 a portion of the shipments already
eh. e has been on speculative account, for the pur-
ita-8e of merchandise in European markets, before any
improvement in the commercial affairs of the old world
leon uses prices for such articles as are adapted to the
aareTtion of this country. Recent advices from Eng-
C 'tate that large quantities of manufactures from the
°Ninent have been sent across the channel for sale,
rd the proceeds carried back in specie. This accounts
the drain of specie from the Bank of England.
bpeculators in this country have not waited for ship-
agn° of European manufactures to this country, but
,
of Laken the specie and gone into the markets
Bo France and Germany and purchased largely.
0p„„.4311,g as we have the specie to spare, these
thattons can be made very profitable, but if
toe shipments continue a panic will arise in this
43:11tYY, and depreciate prices so that there will be no
d...tglt left for profits. There is, however, very little
o,7ger of this, as the supply of specie here is much
• 64..'eater than is generally known. So far as the banks
4423 concerned they have nothing to brag of, but there is
4 immense amount of gold and specie in circulation,
coating around the country, which the banks have no
thetrol over, and which tends, very naturally, to improve
~ value of the currency."
letocks are very firm again, the increasing ease of the
a °!leY Market having the effect of supporting prices
ittinst every other influence. The Bank of England,
~..ts fully expected, will make a formal reduction in its
brisimurn rate of discount, and if the Parlour meeting
reaks up sufficiently early, we shall communicate the
