MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CTY, O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesTWO
terday were esti-
mated at about 6,000 balsa; tim market closed steadily,
but without animation.—ln Railway Shares a fair bust-
noes 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, end a further increase may be anticipated.
The circulation was smaller owii.g 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 either to pay
duties into the Exchequer or to purchase Securities.
The features of the return, compared with the previous
week, are as follows:

Recent accounts from the Mosquito 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.
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, Bing of Mosquito. You look iu 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 la-ke, 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,
arourd the bluff; whilst the w 'living 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 estim Ste (they take no census
here). to between four and firm hundred, mostly Creoles
and Zamboes (a mixture of Indian and negro)."
We are advised from Manch ester 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; noi ther, probably, Ras it
ever more difficult to reconcile tt a outward appearance
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 11,eavy; such, however, is
not the fact, though purchases have been confined to
existing wants, except when at one period some consi-
derable trasesactious were effecte al 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 characte,r; each teatnre being
essentially produced from, and influenced by, the move-
'sent in the Cotton market. Dullness and depression
have, however, predominated; aoad, as might have been
anticipated, both goods and ye rns have experienced
a further aid material decline in value. Still, tho de-
mand has been of an extensive ch aracter."
This being her Majesty's birth -day, is a holiday at the
Cuqoca-housa.

The accounts from France am 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 97i to 98 for
Transfer, and 98 to for Account. The New Three-
and-a'-Quarter per Cents. have. been dealt in to some
extent at 98i to Exci!equer-bills have been dull at
445., and Incua Bonds at 48s. premium.
Foreign Securities have been quite neglected, but are
nominally firm. Spanish Five per Cents, have touched
20i 4. Mexican Bonds have !peen done at 344 to 35.
Buenos Ayres are 58i.
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.
