MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 8,000 bales, of which 1,000 were taken for ex-
port and on bp culation. The market was steady and
closed firmly.—Railway Shares were flat at much lower
prices.

- The weekly statement of the Bank of England to the
9th inst. is not important in regard to the changes that
occurred. The Government account waa increasing,
and already looks well. The other deposits were smaller,
showing that money was scarce upon the whole, although
it might be only temporarily wanted in particular chan-
nels. The other securities increased, and this we usually
put down to a movement in diicounts. The great in-
crease in the deposits threw back a portion of the notes,
and thus circumscribed the active circulation. The
amount of bullion increased a little. Contrasted with the
previous week, the results are as follow:
Notes Issued ... 27,341,085

There was considerable firmness, yesterday afternoon,
in the rates at which bills of exchange were negotiated
upon the principal continental cities. Paris, 90 days,
was taken at 25 22j to 25 ; Antwerp, 25 22} to 27i ;
Hamburgli, 13 8 to 8j ; Frankfort, 1191 to I ; and
Trieste, 11 54 to 58.
Messrs. Ledger and Riddiford's circular states—
" The second series of public sales of colonial wool
commenced on the 17th of July, and terminated yester-
day. The catalogues have comprised— _ _

" The sales commenced with a large attendance of
buyers, and prices opened at a small advance upon those
realised in May and June. The Hall of Commerce hes
continued fully attended throughout, the biddings have
been unusually spirited and prices well maintained, the
advance we estimate upon the previous sales to be Lull
Id. per lb., and within the past week a further rise of id.
par lb. took place without any further alteration to the
close.

" Our home dealers and manufacturers, as well as our
continental neighbours, have purchased freely; and a
fair proportion will cross the Channel. The wools gene-
rally, with the exception of Si (key, have been well got up
and in excellent condition. Van Diemen's still continue
heavy. The growers should pay more attention to the
washing, and take a lesson from Port Philip, an im-
provement in the latter class of wools being apparent in
each succeeding clip."
The amount of the precious metals exported from
London during the week ending last Thursday wiis
342 094 ounces of Silver and 832 ounces of Gold. The
former went chiefly to Belgium and France, except
102,133 ounces to Calcutta.

The accounts received from Manchester are extremely
favourable as to the business doing in piece goods,
but at Leeds there was rather a quieter market.
The Funds have been very quiet and rather heavy.
Consols have been quoted 961} f for Transfer and 96f f
for Account. The New Three•and-a-Quarter per Cents.
were 98i to 99, and the. Three per Cents. 97k e. East
India Stock was at 240 to 262. Exchequer bills were
46a. to 508. and India Bonds 55a. to 58s. premium.
The report of a decrease in the Bank of Englaad bul-
lion proves to be incorrect.
Foreign Stocks are inactive. Spanish Fi►e per Cents.
are nominally about 20k to 211. Portuguese Four per
Cents. 32f to 33f Brazilian Bonds have been marked
92 for the small. Mexican are 29f I, and Peruvian
90i. Sardinian Scrip has been at discount. Dutch
Four per Cents. are 93t.
Railway Shares are very heavy again, and the great
lines have further declined, but there is not much doing.
