In the Cotton market at Liverpool, yesterday, the
sales were 4,000 to 5,000 tales, with very little doing,
though the quotations were steady: American sorts
realised 2/d. to 6d. per lh.—Railway shares were dull,
and prices were tending downwards.

There have been no further arrivals to-day from the
colonies or other parts.
In the Belgian papers there is a statement of the ordi-
nary annual produce of potatoes, which is stated at
22,504,000 hectolitres, but from 1840 to 1846 the mini-
mum yearly import has been 56,662 hectolitre?, and the
maximum, 373 222 hectolitres. Attempts have been
made to introduce other articles of consumption, such as
rice, &c., but they have not been very successful.
The accounts of July date last received from Rio de
Janeiro furnish the ',dialing
" The crop below the Serra having failed, we have as
yet had but little new coffee, and ❑oie good. It is be-
lieved the export a ill fall oil very much this mouth.
Supplies now coming in slowly, and as the price is low
and the planters ere engag,,d in gathering the crop, there
is Ito ireiacement for them to interrupt that wen k by forc-
ing it to market betore all is secured. Should prices
keep down, much of the lower qualities will not pay the
expense of sending it to market, and while this may
lead to a better cleaning of the article we may have a
diminution of export in the coming twelve months. The
export cf this crop, say from June, 1847, to July 1,1848,
has been 1,835.351 bags, of which 756,653 to the United
States and 1,078,698 bags to Europe, &e. To the United
States this year 334,939 bags have bean exported against,
in same months of last year, 306,807, and to Europa
this year, 509,000 bags, against same time last year,
550,516 bags."
The Corn market is very heavy to•day.

There is a meeting to-day of Mexican Bondholders,
but it had not concluded up to the hour of our writing.
The English Funds are exceedingly dull this morning,
and the arrangements for the settlement continue to ex-
ercise a depressing influence upon the market. Consols
have been 85,1 to 86k for Transfer, and 85k to 86 for
Account. The New Three-and-a. Quarter per Cents.
have been 86k to 87. Excbequ?r-bills are 28s. to 31s.

The Foreig❑ Stock market presents a mere blank.
Spanish Three per Cents. are 231 ; Dutch Two-and-a-
Half pe•r Cents. have been 44k, and the Four per Cents.
71. All the rest are nominal. Mexican about 16i tc
17. Portuguese Fuur per Cents. 21 to 23, and Bra-
zilian 73 to 75.

Railway Shares are worse this morning than even for
some time past, and there are no buyers coming for-
ward. The list will show the depreciation, but for
which we really du not meet with any men of practical
experience who can give a satisfactory explanation.
The market probably is in the hands of a few persons,
owing to the number out of town.
