MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS

(From The Sun ot Saturday Evening.)
The Cotton market at Liverpool yesterday was firm, sale
6,000 bales. Shares were quiet.
The usual weekly return from the Bank of England, gives
the following result, as compared with the previous state-
ment :

A decrease in the circulation of 126,4551, or to 29,139,9051.
An increase in the Rest of 21,5971., 3r to 3,504,1381.
A decrease in the Public Deposits to 3,162,6961., or of
326,7201.

A decrease in " other securities " of 761,3291., or to
15,328,3971.

A decrease in the stock of bullion of 92,469/., or to
15,770,1974

The subscriptions for the relief of the sufferers by the late
firs at St. John's, Newfoundland, are proceeding satisfacto-
rily. Among the names received this morning by the Com-
mittee is that of Lord Stanley. At Liverpool, and other
principal places largely connected with trade and commerce,
the lists have been pretty well filled. Still, however,
much remains to be done to meet the pressing demands
of the unfortunate individuals who have lost their all by
the fire.

We have most satisfactory accounts this morning from the
country relative to the crops. Harvest is expected to be
general in Lancashire next week. The wheats are heavy,
and of generally fine quality.
There are not any colonial arrivals announced in the City
this morning.
There is a shade of improvement in the Consol Market
this morning. Money transactions have been somewhat
frequent for this, the last day of the week. For the Three
per Cent. Consols 953/ has been just paid, for the Account
96, for the Reduced Three per Cents. 961/x, for the Three
per Cent. Annuities of 1726 97% 34, for India Bonds 255.
premium, for Exchequer-bills 14a. premium, and for India
Stock 262.

A very doll demand has existed to-dav for all the Foreign
Funds. The only bargains have been in-Chilian Deferred, at
53 ; in Danish, at 881,4 ; in Peruvian, at 89%-; and in the
Dutch Four-and-a-Half per Cents., at 961,/x.
' The Railway Share Market has been very heavy this
morning, but still there is a fair amount of business in pro-
gress.

The embankment of the Rhine near Strasburg is pro-
ceeding rapidly, as the Government have this year voted
900,000 francs for that purpose. Some new cuts have been
begun, while others have been made available for naviga-
tion. Between the above city and Lauenburg navigation
has been abridged by some miles. The steamers, which up
to 1835 required five hours for the above distance, make it
now in three. Several swinging bridges are also projected to
replace the old ferries.—The Builder.
POSEN, JULY 9.—A few clays ago some pers.nis got
through an open window of the residence of the Chief Pre-
sident, and plundered the office of 1,500 dollars in money and
bills of exchange. None of the papers belonging to political
persons were abstracted, but pains was taken to throw them
into the greatest confusion, and thus everything in the office
was in disorder. It is difficult to assign a cause for such a ,
proceeding.
On the 15th of next month the inauguration of Sir
Walter Scott's statue in Edinburgh is to take place, with
much splendour, to which a procession of Freemasons will
contribute not a little.
