MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti.
mated at 2,500 bales. The market was quiet at previ-
ous rates.—Railway Shares were rather firm.
The market for grain is firm, but the full supplies 01
foreign Wheat have counteracted the effect of the small
arrival of English.

The rates for bills of exchange improved here yester-
day afternoon, except on Paris.
The advices from the Continent are more satisfactory.
At Amsterdam on the 27th inst. the price of Dutch Two-
and-a-Half per Cents, was 57i. Spanish barely 'so
good. At Paris the feeling yesterday, as described in
the letters just to hand, was decidedly more en-
couraging, and the advance in the Rentes illustrates this.
The '1 r Mune, the great Protectionist organ in New
York, thus speaks of the favourable prospects of the
Free-traders :

"We have already chronicled the forming of a' Free
Trade Association.' The avowed object of this nucleus
was the establishment of absolute freedom of importation
without any check, impost, or limitation whatever.
Another and more formidable movement has recently
been commenced, which has boding tendencies in common
with the foregoing, but is rather more practical in its
aims, and is probably destined to become immediately
and palpably potential. It is in effect a secret organiza-
tion of the tree-trade importers, shippers, agents of fo-
reign manufacturers, &c., in our city, to accomplish the
nomination of the Hon. Robert J. Walker, of Mississippi
(Mr. Polk's Secretary of the Treasury, and the main
architect of the present tariff), as the next ' Democratic'
cAndidate for the President, placing ' the party' on the
distinct and unequivocal Free-trade' grounds, and
the securing its triumph at the election of 1852. This
movement has been backed by a subscription of over
200,000 dollars, which can be easily raised here and in
other commercial ports on both sides of the Atlantic to
a plump million. Should that amount be promptly made
up and judiciously used, we think the success of the
project, so far as the denomination is concerned, might
be anticipated with confidence."
There is no probability of the Bank of England ad-
vancing the rate of discount to-morrow. Money is
scarcely worth 21 to 24 on best bills, and the private
bankers and brokers are over suppled.
The English Stock Market has been looking up, al-
though business continues to be very cautiously con-
ducted. The advance in the Rentes at Paris, amounting
to nearly 1 per cent., has not been without its influence;
but, except, on behalf of the Commissioners for the Reduc-
tion of the Nati.inal Debt, there have been no money pur-
chases of importance, This inactivity is not expected
to continue. Consols are 96k for Transfer, and 96k
for Account. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.
have been 98i to 99. Bank Stock is steady at 2141,
and India Stock at 266. Exchequer-bills are 58s. to
61s. premium, and India Bonds 68s. premium.
The Foreign Market is buoyant, and some of the
speculative securities are in increased favour. Mexican
Bonds have risen to 33* and there is a belief that the
next packet will bring interesting and favourable news
with a good remittance. The creditors of Spain, like-
wi,e, are in better heart, and much confidence is
expressed in the probability of some arrange-
ment of the debt. The Five per Cent. Bonds
are 18k and the Three per Cents. 181. Peruvian
Four-and-a Half per Cents. have realized 781. Equador
Stock is n k; Grenada, 17 to i; and Venezuela, 30.
Brazilian Old Bonds have been marked 901. Portu-
guese Four per Cents. are 34*. Danish Five per Cent.
Bonds are at 1021; Russian Five per Cents. at 113.
Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are 58k.
Railway Shares are again in the ascendant, with an
increased business doing. Midland have advanced 11. to
21., Great Western 11. or more, South-Western full 21,
Great Northern Ito North Stafford Ito e, East
Lancaster I, Brighton 1, South-Eastern to k, and most
others in proportion.
Joint-stock Bank Shares are held very firmly.
