MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 4,000 bales. The market was steady and
closed with a better tone.—Railway Shares were buoyant,
and a large business was dote) in all the principal stocks,
but the market closed rather easier.
The business of the Bank of England does not in-
crease, neither is there any indication of an augmented
demand for money, if we take the weekly return of
that establishment, made up to the Bth instant. The
note circulation fell off considerably, notwithstanding a
withdrawal of other deposits, the addition made to the
public deposits outweighing that item. The loans and
discounts were curtailed, and the unemployed assets
were larger. There was some diminution in the bul-
lion, but not of an amount to cause the least uneasiness,
unless we are to assume that it will go on steadily in the
same direction, which is unlikely. Compared with the
previous week, the results are as follows :
Notes Issued ... 27,638,220
Decrease ... 66,295

Active Circulation... ... 19,175,085

The circulation of notes by all the banks in the United
Kingdom was, during the four weeks to the 25th Ja-
nuary last, as follows:
Bank of England £19,588,372 increase £1,074,336
Private ditto . . 3,573,320 „ 122,638
Joint-stock ... 2,728,640 „ 43,340
Scotch ... ... 3,252,485 decrease 93,164
Irish ... 4,782,651 „ 74,305
The comparison here instituted is with the month to
the 28th December last.
No decided alteration occurred yesterday afternoon in
the rates for bills of exchange upun the principal conti-
nental cities.
The advices from India by the overland express bear
an unfavourable construction in respect to commercial
affairs. Money was scarce, and some of the native mer-
chants had suspended. We cannot avoid repeating on
this occasion the opinion we have so often before ex-
pressed, that there is still a manifest want of caution in
the conduct of our East India trade. The excessive
competition, or long credits, drive numerous parties into
the dilemma of either giving up business or doing it
frequently at a loss, in the hope of a favourable tura at
a subsequent period. This system is obviously perni-
cious, and must with the weaker ones end disatrously.
Many of the stronger are occasionally compelled to
succumb. The tendency is to overload the eastern
markets with our fabrics, which accordingly fall in price,
and to aggravate the evil we buy the produce of the
Indies beyond the price that it will realial in England-
No better term could be applied to this course than that
it is burning the candle at both ends. If there were
less of the credit system, the fallacy of such proceedings
might be better understood.
The letters from the textile manufacturing districts
notice duller markets this week.
The Right Honourable the Lord Mayor having con-
sented to preside, and the proprietors of the Hall of
Commerce having liberally offered their splendid hall
for the use of the merchants, the public meeting to con-
sider the subject of tribunals of commerce will be held
at the hall on Wednesday next, the 19th inst. The fol-
lowing Members of Parliament have joined the com-
mittee, of which Lord Wharueliffe is the President:---Sir
James Duke, Bart, Robert J. Tennent, Esq., John
M`Gregor, 115 q., Arthur Anderson, Eq , John Williams,
Esq., William Scholefield, Esq., Jacob Bell, Esq., and
J. Lewis Ricardo, Esq.
The exports of silver from London this week and up
to Thursday, were 34,528 ounces, and of gold 10,0001.
and 5,000 oz., the first named metal to Madras and Bel-
gium, and tho latter to the Cape of Good Hope and
Dunkirk.
