MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet;
sales, 4,000 bales, all to the trade. Railway shares were
rather in favour of buyers.
The continental arrivals this morning furnish no
intelligence of importance, but there is a better feel-
ing in some respects with regard to political
matters. The probability of an arrangement of the
Danish :question, although it will be for the German
Confederation to ratify it, has afforded satisfaction, and
from France the accounts are more promising for the
Railway shareholders. There is an important matter,
however, not to be lost sight of, viz. that the rejection
of the spoliation project, will be another mortification
to the Executive Government that may result in their
resignation. The Naples accounts excite a feeling
of unmitigated disgust here, as well as at
Paris, and even if irregular, the humane in-
terference of the French Admiral at Naples, is
hailed with pleasure. The French Assembly seems
likely to take up the question, but we think it may fairly
be left to the Italians at large. City men who know
well the character of Ferdinand, conceive that his expul-
sion must inevitably occur.
The Colonial produce markets have been rather firmer
this week, and thero has been a steady business done for
consumption, although the " races" have interfered with
the public sales.
From the manufacturing districts the accounts seem
rather more favourable, but it is home orders chiefly
that afford employment at present. For export there is
very little doing. It is expected that there will be in-
creased shipments to India and America—prospering,
we may do a good stroke of business this year with
brother Jonathan. We have plenty of cash to buy or
execute orders.

There-is a heavy market for grain, and prices are
rather tending downwards, owing to the large arrivals.
The Public Securities have been firm this morning,
although Stock is still rather more plentiful than it
was. Thus Consols have been 84 to for transfer,
and 841 to for account. The possibility of the Spanish
Ambassador being ordered to quit England should Sir
Henry Bulwer be exonerated from blame will probably
deter money purchases at present. Exchequer-bills
have been lower again, viz., 425. to 371. premium.
Bank Stock is 191 to 193. The New Three-and-a
Quarter per Cents. have been marked 83i to
In the Foreign Market business is excessively dull.
Spanish Five per Cents. have been done at 12, and the
Three per Cents. at 218 to Dutch Two-and-a-Half
per Cents. have realised 41 to 42, and the Four per
Cents. 611. Portuguese Four per Cents. are nominally
16i to 17i. Mexican Stock is worth 151 to
Railway Shares have not moved decidedly, but in
some instances they are flatter, viz., North-Western,
Midland and Great Western. South-Western have
been supported, and also South-Eastern, &e.
