Yesterday afternoon Bills of Exchange at 90, days on
the principal continental cities were negotiated at very
full rates. Paris, 25 20 to 25; Antwerp, 25 20 to 25;
Amsterdam, 11 18 to i; Hamburgh, 13 Bto Frank-
fort, 119 to i; and Trieste, 12 51 to 57.
Recent accounts from the Musquito territory furnish
some interesting information concerning the present
condition of the country:—
" This part of the Mosquito coast remains about the
same, and but little change is visible since '4B. The
excitement of Protectorate or non-Protectorate is not
discussed, and things keep the same tenor of their way.
'rLl24 The King has thrown off the temporary dignity which
% was buckled on his back' at Grey Town, and walks
unattended to the missionary meeting-house, where the
good parson dispenses spiritual grace to all the benighted
subjects of his very republican-looking Majesty, George
Augustus, King of Mosquito. You look in vain here
for any royal residence, and there are much better look-
ing edifices than the palace.'
" Blewfields is certainly the most healthy and most
beautiful of all the settlements on the coast. Situated
on the borders of a lagoon or lake, and spreading along
its high banks for a distance of two miles (the houses
being very sparse and scattered), it presents a romantic
and picturesque appearance. The ground around is
rich, and vegetation flourishes spontaneously; the cocoa-
nut trees show most prominent as you enter the lagoon,
around the bluff; whilst the waving broad leaves of the
plantain and bannana trees fill up the space between.
The population outnumbers Grey Town, or San Juan,
amounting, at a rough estimate (they take no census
here), to between four and five hundred, mostly Creoles
and Zamboes (a mixture of Indian and negro)."
We are advised from Manchester as to the state of
trade by Messrs. M`Nair, Greenhow, and Irving, as
follows:
" The sympathy existing between the action of the
Cotton market and that of the manufactured article,
was never rendered more apparent than it has been
during the present month; neither, probably, was it
dia. ever more difficult to reconcile the outward appearance
dis. and characteristics of this market with its actual condi-
tion as it now stands, with regard to the supply of goods
and yarns, and stocks generally. It might have been
supposed that stocks were very heavy; such, however, is
nut the fact, though purchases have been confined to
existing wants, except when at one period some consi-
derable traesactions were effected under an apprehended
advance in prices.
" The prevailing feeling from the commencement to
the close of the month has been of a changeable, fluc-
tuating, and depressing character; each feature being
essentially produced from, and influenced by, the move-
ment in the Cotton market. Dullness and depression
have, however, predominated; and, as might have been
anticipated, both goods and yarns have experienced
a further aid material decline in value. Still, the de-
mand has been of an extensive character."
This being her Majesty's birth-day, is a holiday at the
Custom-house.
The accounts from France are regarded as being to-
day very satisfactory, and the rise in the Funds has
strengthened the market here, though there is scarcely
any speculation. Consols have been 9711 to 98 for
Transfer, and 98 to 8 for Account. The New Three-
and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been dealt in to some
extent at 98* to 1. Exchequer-bills have been dull at
445., and India Bonds at 48s. premium.
Foreign Securities have been quite neglected, but are
nominally firm. Spanish Five per Cents. have touched
20i j. Mexican Bonds have been done at 348 to 35.
Buenos Ayres are 58*.
In Railway Shares there is very little doing, but
prices have in several instances further improved.
South-Eastern are an exception, being lower. Foreign
shares are higher.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at about 6,000 bales; the market closed steadily, but without animation.—ln Railway Shares a fair busi-
ness was done at improved prices.
Thera are many important changes in the balance-
sheet of the Bank of England, made up to the 24th inst.
The arrivals of bullion noticed under this head during
the last fortnight have begun to tell upon the sum in the
Bank coffers, and a further increase may be anticipated.
The circulation was smaller owing to the paying in of
further amounts to the credit of the public Treasury.
The advances upon Securities were extended, and there
was recourse had to private balances, used €itber to pay
duties into the Exchequer or to purchase Securities.
The features of the return, compared with the previous
week, are as follows:
