CITY, Two o'OLoox

The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed
!firmly, at an advance of id. per lb. upon all de-
scriptions of Americans, but all 4)ther kinds were
without change in value. The sal.es were estimated
at 12,000 bales-1,500 for export, and 3,000 on
speculation—comprising 130 Perna:m and Maran-
ham, at 6/d. to Bd. ; 150 Bahia at 6&d. ; 500
Egyptian, at 6.1 d. to Bd. ; 1,500 Surat, at 4id. to
5/d. ; and 150 Sea Islands, at 11d. to Is. 4d. per lb.
The Railway Share Market was firm, -with steady
prices, and closed at its best point.
For Foreign and Colonial prodt-Ace this week
there has been a steady inquiry, bi it the markets
still present a quiet appearance. In sugar the
transactions have been limited, but owing to the
firmness of the holders previous prices have been
realised. Coffee has been quoted at full rates ;
cocoa has been inactive, and rice 'cm been in good
demand at higher rates, white Bongo 1 being 3d. to
6d. dearer. There has been a good inquiry for
rum, but sales have been limited. Saltpetre has
been at rather firmer prices, and. spices have at-
tracted very little attention. In tallow a slight
advance has taken place.

Further accounts from Vienna Rtat,a that the

scarcity of the precious metals is daily being more
felt in commercial and financial ch'cles. The
premium, which has risen to 5 anc'L 6 per cent.
during the week, is expected shortly to advance to
10 and 12 per cent. The sham of the new Bauk
of Crexlit have depreciated within. the last few days
more than 20 per cent., and tb ey continue to de-
cline in the market. This st_unity of money is
now felt throughout all the Gorman Bourses to
redrice the value of stocks, espe,3ially those of new
und‘ertakings. At Hamburg th e shares of the two
banks recently founded there have declined from
15 per cent, premium to par.

The advance in ihe Bank (if France rate of dis-
count from 5 to 6 per cent. which was made yes-
terday has given rise to -much discussion in the
City, and the opinion is now confidently expressed
that it will be immedia'.ely followed by a similar
movement at the Bantz of England. This increase
in the value of money on the Continent is now
being severely felt in all departments of business.
The Bank of Prussia, besides twice raising its
terms within a fortnight, has found it necessary,
in orOter to check the drain of the precious metal,
to refuse to negotiate such bills as will have the
effect of withdrawing silver from the country, a vast
amount of paper circulation having already been
substituted for metallic currency.

The market for Public Securities has been very
depressed this morning in consequence of the un-
favourable prospects of the money market both
here and on the Continent. An advance in the
rate of discount at Paris was not generally expected,
and the English Funds have sympathised with the
serious decline which that event occasioned on the
Paris Bourse. The decline in prices here has been
per cent., and the market still droops. Da the
present sensitive state of the Money Market the
least circumstance, whether. favourable or other-
wise, produces a decided effect upon the views of
the speculators. Thus the confident feeling experi-
enced a few days ago, when some temporary abate-
ment was apparent in the inquiry for money, is
now succeeded by depression. Consols opened at
about 93R for money, and 931 for account.
Since then they have been rather firmer,viz., 93i
and 931 1, respectively. Exchequer Bills are 13s.
to 16s. prem., and the Bonds are 99g.

The Railway Share Market is naturally de-
pressed, in consequence of the fall in the
Funds ; but the decline in most cases is not so
extensive as might have been expected. The
arangements connected with the settlement, this
being " making-up" day, however, occupy most
attention, and the fresh transactions are
consequently contracted. The Great Western,
Lancashire and Yorkshire, and Midland, are about
ss. lower, but several of the others are firm, and
Brighton, South Western, and Caledonian are to
better. The French, India, and Canada, are
dull.
