MONEY and COMMERCIAL NE WS.
CITY. TWO O'CLOGA.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were P -
timated at trom 7.000 to 8,000 bales, of which 1,000
American were taken for export. The market el,,srd
firmly.—The Share Market was flat and heavy, and
closed at lower prices.
The main influence of the dividend and quarterly
payments at the Bank of England is now over, and the
week!) return to the 25th ultimo is accordingly more
after the ordinary course. The Public Deposits were
further diminished, but not to the extent they would
have been if payments to the revenue account did not
continue. The private lodgments benefitted by the in-
creased sums put in circulation by the dividends, and
these latter oecasioned the payment of a further portion
of the loans obtained while the transfer books were
closed. The note circulation underwent scarcely any
alteration. The bullion was added to rather materially.
Compared with the previous week, the changes are as
follows—

The rates paid for Foreign Bills were yesterday
scarc(.ly so high, ninety days' paper being taken at 25 40
to 42i on Paris; 25 40 to 45 on Antwerp; 11 194 to
19i on Amsterdam; 13 l 0 to 11 on Hareburgh ; 1204
to on Frankfort, and 12 38 to 40 on Trieste.
Toe exports of bullion last week from London were
139 ounces in gold to France, and 49,200 ounces in
silver, mostly to Holland and Belgium.
Some of the letters from Calcutta lay the overland
mail are more gloomy in tone than any we have of late
seen, and unfortunately they hold out no hope of present
improvements. The market was becoming more than
ever glutted with piece goods, and large quantities were
still on the way. Pending the slack demand, there
would be such an accumulation as must seri-
ously affect prices and entail heavy loss
upon all concerned. Confidence among the native
dealers was quite impaired by the numerous failures,
and the firms in England which, disregarding all pre-
vious warning, have continued to inundate the Indian
markets, will have to bear the next brunt.
From Manchester we are advised by Messrs. M'Nair,
Greenhow, and Irving, as follows:
" As faithful exponents, according to what we really
believe the actual condition of this market from time to
time to be, a due regard to our intentions, though now
obliging us to report the existence of a dull, drooping,
and declining state of things, yet justifies us in assert-
ing that a large amount of business has again been
transacted during the month. The details which we
supply, furnished with every regard to accuracy, will
best support this latter position; and with regard to the
former one, a reference to our last Monthly Circular, for
certain causes and influences therein stated, will in some
measure account for it. _ _

" The difficulty of reconciling the outward appearance
of the market with its actual working, still continues.
Both goods and yaras have undergone, in moat in-
stances during the month, a material decline
in value, as you will perceive; yet spinners and
manufacturers, acting wisely for their own interests,
were fuund willing sellers, and accepted rates corres-
pondent with the prevailing tendency—a course of pro-
ceeding which, though buyers were purchasers only fur
immediate and pressing wants, tended to keep the
market bare of any increase of stock up to the last ten
days—if 40-inch Shirtings, Jacconets, and Yarns,
adapted for India, be excepted, and which had, until
then, from the absence of demand, increased, in all
qualities and descriptions, very considerably. Since
then, some considerable purchases, consequent
upon the low and irregular rates ruling,
in both Cloth and Twist, have not only
been effected, but many producers placed again under
contract. As regards these, a greater steadiness in
prices now prevails; and a rather improved tone im-
parted to, and a demand experienced for other descrip-
tione of Yarns and Cloth, which has produced again a
comparative general scarcity. To many of oar friends,
this result may appear doubtful."
This being a holiday in the Stock Exchange, as usual
on the Ist November, there is nothing to report of
Stocks and Shares, nor do we hear of bargains out of
the house that would give a reliable quotation.
