MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet.
Sales 4,000 bales. Shares were dull.
The state of the Bank of England during the week
to Saturday last, was not essentially different from the
preceding week, but the increase in the bullion is
smaller than somo might have anticipated. This is
easily accounted for by the exports which have still
to be made to the Continent, to supply the deficiency of
bills, or rather the discredit which prevails. The
Treasury balances increase steadily, but private de-
positers are still diminishing their banking account ;
and, as we hope, because they find better employment
for their funds.
The other securities being again reduced shows
that the Bank, at its minimum of 4 per cent., was un-
able to get business.
The following are the principal changes compared
with the previous week :
Notes issued 26,860,060

It would appear that credence is not. attached to the
from India respecting the
accounts received professedly
massacre at Lahore, but still there is some anxiety to
learn the truth of the matter, as there may very likely
have been assassinations of individuals.
The continental news is of much the same charm ter
trade,
as for some time past, and in respect to perhaps,
even worse. Unprecedented sacrifices of property are
daily made abroad.
The want of free currency for Bills of Exchange
causes specie to be used still to a considerable extent in
making remittances either to or from the continent.
This week there have been shipped from London 3,580
ounces of gold, and 306,000 ounces of silver.
The Funds are rather heavy again, but there is very
little doing. The preparations for Monday cause, in con-
junction with the foreign news, an indisposition to ope-
rate. Consols have been as low as 833 for Money; but
are now 84 to Time bargains have been effected at
84 to Exchequer-bills have been 365. to 40s. prem.
The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. are 833 to I-.
India Stock has been marked 231.
Spanish Five per Cents. have been quoted 12, and the
Three per Cent's. 24 Mexican Bonds Lave been at 151.
