MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 5,000
to 6,000 bales. The market was quiet, but there was
no change in prices. American realised 31d. to 51d.
per lb. Railway Shares were flat," and prices were
lower. There was rather a better feeling afterwards.
The accounts from Ireland absolutely check all dispo-
sition to attend to any other matters, and there is con-
siderable excitement. Some exaggeration has no doubt
been practised in the transmission of the accounts, but
to a certain extent they are presumed to be true. It is
to be hoped parties will keep themselves free of undue
apprehension, and endeavour to allay any alarm, espe-
cially in so far as the money market is concerned. The
banks are strongly fortified both here and in Ireland with
reserves of specie, and we trust will not be called upon
to refund deposits to any extent, as the knowledge of
their firm position should give confidence.
The accounts from Paris seem to favour the impres-
sion that intervention in the, affairs of Italy by France
was contemplated.
The commercial markets are much affected by the
political excitement, but fine weather will be in their
favour.
The English Funds have been extremely fluctuating.
