MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were about 6,000
bales. There was some improvement in the market, with a little
speculative demand, but the principal sales were to the trade.
The intelligence received from the East Indies this morning, in
anticipation of the Overland. Mail, .has been the subject of almost
la the merchants, bankers,
eaxnedostilvlea aarse.Avenrsdatitliearaeiins uCtiltayniammoounsgfeeling of regret expressed
at the great loss of life that has occurred in the great
battle between the British and the native troops and
the Seikh army. But, above all, the death of General
Sir Robert Sale, who died on the field of battle. The full details of
the information that has just come to hand will be found in another
part of The Sun; of course the private commercial letters have
not yet come to hand, and there is not anything known upon mer-
cantile affairs beyond that commnuicated through the medium of the
press of India of the coudition of the general markets—Calcutta,
BAmbay, &c.
In the City this morning there are not any later advises at hand
from Canada, or other portions of British North America.
The Consol. Market has been rather fiat this morning, r robably
arising from the serious loss sustained by the !laces in India. Money
is rather more in request to-day. Consols for to-morrow have
fallen from 96 to 95%, and for the Accoent from 96 to 957 sellers.

Three-And-a-Quarter per Cents. at 98.
In the Foreign Funds there has been comparatively little business
transacted this morning. There is at present scarcely any disposi-
tion to speculate in the continental or in the other bonds. The Five
per Cent. Brazilian Stock has improved from 82% to 83% ; the
Equador Bonds have fluctuated only from 3% to % ; Mexican De-
ferred are at 16%. Portuguese Three per Cents. at 58; Spanish, at
27% ; Venezuela., at 45 ; and Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents, are
