CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were about
5,000 bales, comprising 3.500 American, 300 Pernam
and Maranham at 81d. to 84d., 200 Bahia at 81d. to
200 Egyptian at Brl. to 9id., and 500 Surat at 5d
to 6d. per lb. The market was tame without alteration
in p►ices.—Railway Shares were quiet but firm.
The reduction in the amount of bullion held by the
Bank of England during the week to the 28th ult. is as
nearly us possible the amount that was anticipated, and
had it not been for the arrivals from America, the total
diminution would doubtless be 1,000,0001. The active
circulation was increased a little, large additional ad-
vances having been made upon securities. The fact that
bullion was taken in preference to notes sufficiently in-
dicates the purpose for which the accommodation was
obtained. The public deposits rose again, and the other
deposits were rather diminished, owing to the higher
value or money. The comparison of the items with
those of the previous week is as follows:
