MONE Y and COMMERCIAL NEWS

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday was 10,000
bales, of which 1.500 American were taken for export,
and 2,000 on speculation. The market was active, and
the advance of Monday was well maintained.—ln Rail-
way Shares a fair business was done, at previous rates.
The steamer Baltic, arrived from the United States,
furnishes commercial accounts to the 19th instant,
and the report of the dry-goods market at New York is
of great interest to European shippers at this time of
year, as it precedes the " fall " season. A statement
before us mentions that "the trade, though not active
as respects actual demand, is active in preparations for
one close at hand, and which is expected to be large.
Stocks of goods are large. All foreign goods and do•
mestic woollens are firmer, but cotton fabrics are still
heavy. The receipts for the past few weeks from the
mills are far greater than the sales ; and as the raw ma-
terial still tends, and is actually working steadily,
downwards, dealers have no confidence in prices.
Bleached shirtings and sheetings have been selling mo-
derately, but the large supply keeps prices heavy. In
unbleached goods there is not so much pressure
to sell, and prices are rather more steady, but there is
no active demand at current rates. Drills are dull, and
without change. Osnaburghs are in moderate demand,
but prices are not buoyant. Denims are more active,
and steadier in price. Strips are very quiet and heavy.
Ticks are dull. Cotton flannels are inactive. Printing
cloths have been selling more extensively, but prices do
not improve, as holders are anxious to reduce their
present stocks, being able to replace them at a better ad-
vantage. In prints an active business is springing up.
The new styles are in market in great variety and no-
velty of design, and induce early purchases. Ginghams
are quiet, but a movement is near at hand, the
inquiry being considerable. Delainos for the fall season
are in ample supply and variety, and the demand will
soon be active. Cloths are active, especially
in medium and low qualities of goods. Prices are more
steady. The market favours sellers. Cassimers of new
fancy of all styles are becoming active. The assort-
ment is large. Prices are firm for all kinds. Satinets
are in good request, and prices show some symptoms
of coming improvement. Tweeds continue inactive.
Jeans are in fair request, but are easy in price. Linseys
are steady in demand, but at irregular prices; some
holders are asking, but in vain, for an advance. Sheep
greys are in increasing demand, but the stock is light
except of the lower qualities. Flannels are in good de-
mand, as are also blankets, and at good prices. French
goods are in good supply. The Franklin has brought a
large supply. All the steamers brieg full cargoes, bat
the packet ships hate very light freight. Silk fancy
vestiags, black silks, velvets, and lace are all
in better demand. British goods are in good
stock, but more from an apt and varied assortment than
actual quantity. Prints of desirable styles are selling
readily. Fancy vestings, Scotch plaids, and broad cloths
are in increasing request. Prices are very steady, and
from the few goods arriving or expected, prices will, it
is said, rule very firmly."
This, upon the whole, may be considered as offering a
tolerably satisfactory prospect.
From the Ist to the Bth of July, inclusive, 130 ves-
sels passed the Welland Canal, of which 66 passed up,
and 64 down. Of those bound down, 37 were to Os-
wego. 13 to Kingston, 7 to Ogdensburg, 2 to Montreal,
Ito Quebec, 3to Toronto, and Ito Niagara. The car-
goes bound to Ogdensburg were composed mostly of flour,
wheat, and corn, and those to Montreal and Quebec of
the same.

From Mexico it is stated that a conductor was to leave
the city of Mexico on the 22d ult,, for Vera Cruz, with a
large amount of specie.
Jamaica papers to the 11th July sta e that the cholera
continued very bad in Sur la-Mer, parish of Westmore-
land. Several vessels were loading to sail on the Ist of
August, for England, and amongst them many foreign
ones.

From Havannab, under date of July 8, we learn that
business was very good.
In the Amsterdam market, on the 28th inst., Dutch
Stock was less in favour, the Two-and-a-Half per Cents.
being 58 11-16.
The Bankers' Magazine for August states in reference
to the Customs management:—
" Before the issue of our next number, the report of
the Committee of the House of Commons, appointed to
inquire into the present constitution and malpractices of
the Board of Customs will probably have been pub-
lished; and we, therefore, reserve our remarks on this
very unpleasant subject until the report and evidence is
before us. The evidence already published shows as
clearly as possible that the existing system cannot be
continued; and we shall be glad if the exposure which
has already taken place, induces the Board to
reform its constitution, so as to avoid the scandal
which must fellow any legislative enactment on the
subject. The present Chancellor of the Exchequer is
not considers d, in commercial circles, a person likely to
undertake any reform of a comprehensive character; and
all the leading Custom-house authorities being appa-
rently family connexions of the Ministry, and subordi-
nate hangers-on of Government, the Ministers are not
likely to take any measures which will interfere with the
easy situations and idly-earned emoluments of their im-
mediate connexions. In the meantime, however, it is
expected that a check will be put upon the proceedings
of the attorney for the Customs; and that he will not
be permitted to repeat the shameful proceedings lately
adopted against the London Dock Company, which re-
sulted in the defeat of the Customs' authorities in the
Court of Exchequer."
The English Stocks continue rather heavy on account
of the rumour of an Austrian loan, the advices from
Paris and Vienna stating more positively that the con-
tract has been taken. The amount is given at 8,000,0001.,
and it is said that the Stock will be a Five per Cent.,
issued at 93. We should imagine this to be much too
high to offer a temptation here, and no doubt the bulk
will be eased off in Germany and France. Consols have
been quoted 964 T for Transfer and Time. Exchequer-
bills have been 475. to 505,, and India Bonds 575. to
595. premium. Bank Stock is firm at 2154 to 2161.
Consols now are 964 3.
The "carrying over" of accounts is the chief business
in the Foreign market. Mexican Bonds have been 30i
3, Peruvian Five per Cents. 891, and Brazilian Old 92.
Sardinian Scrip has been at par to premium. Spanish
Five per Cents. have been marked 21i to Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are 59i
The settlement in Shares is going off favourably, and
an advance has occurred in Midland, North-Western,
East Lancashire, Caledonian, South-Eastern, and York
and Berwick.
