EVEN ING, A UGUST 12, 1848.

in Paris, RADETZKY had received instructions from
Vienna to remain, at iNlilan until the conclusion of
peace, Austria being prepared to listen to the me-
diation of France and England. Such a rumour,
we need scarcely say, is most improbable.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was ts little
steadier; sales, 4,000 to 5,000 bales. Railway. Shares
were exceedingly dull, and with but limited transactions.
Prices had a downward tendency still.
The statement made under this h, ad as to the
,proba-
ble diminution of the bullion reserves of the Bunk of
England, is borne out by the return before us, made out
for the week to the 9th inst. The causes to be assigned
are undoubtedly the exports making by a great " capi-
talist" house to the Continent, and, as stated, to supply
the wants of one or two Foreign Governments ; and pos-
sibly, also, there may have been exports in connexion
with orders for foreign grain. The Government ba-
lances were added to, but there is a further indication of
the increased demand for mt,ney, or rather of its being
held tighter, in the reduction of the other deposits. The
business of the Bank was again diminished :

The Hamburgh mail, arrived to-day, brings the rata
of exchange on Loudon again lower, viz., 13.5/. A
great deal of silver from England and Holland had been
forwarded to Vienna. Money was easy; and hopes were
still entertained that the Danish dispute would be ami-
cably arranged by the intervention of Lord Cowley.
In the City this morning the feeling is not altogether
satisfactory. Among other things it is rumoured that
the Bank of England will probably advance the rate of
discount at its next parlour meeting. Possibly this may
occur, but the object will be not to cheek speculation in
grain, which in reality has not been commenced to an
extent warranting uneasiness, or even reprobation, since
we always need moderate supplies, but to prevent the
exportation of specie to the Continent for the supply of
the armies engaged in belligerent t.perations. There
have been imports of specie from various Parts, but the
exports from London this week have been large, viz.,
350,000 ounces of silver, and about 12,900 ounces of
gold.
The Funds have been extremely heavy again. Con-
sols 85i to 86/ for present transfer, and 854 to 861 for
account. Excht quer-hills of June, 275. to 285.; and
India Bonds under 1,000/. 28s. to 31s. premium. Bank
Stock is firm at 199. The New Three.and-a-Quarter
per Cents. have been 86/ to 864.
The Foreign Securities have continued dull. Por-
tuguese Four per Cents, have been 17/ to 18; Mexican
are 161; Danish Bonds have been 68; Dutch Two-and-
a-Half per Cents. are 43/ to 43/.
Shares are very depressed again, especially North-
Western, and sales are rather pressed. Fine weather is
needed to bring them up, but the result of the North-
Weitern meeting has its influence generally.
