CITY, Two o'CLoch
The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed
with some animation, and all kinds were unchanged
in price. The sales were estimated at 12,000 bales,
consisting of 1,000 American, export, and 5,000 on
speculation • 500 Pernam and Maranham, qt. to
7id. ; 200 Bahia, bid. to bid. ; 250 Egyptian; 6d.
to Bid. • 500 Surat, 41d. to std. ' • and 250 Sea,
[slands, 10d. to Is. 6d. par lb. The Railway Share
Market closed at a slight decline.
Accounts from the Continental silk-producing
districts continue to state that the cocoons have
suffered in consequence of the recent unfavourable
weather. At Valence the prices range from 6f. 50c.
to 7f. 25c. per kilogramme for cocoons, according
to quality. At Romans the grain of the silk is not
so good as it was last year. At Avignon the pro-
duce of the sea:on is expected not to exceed one-
third of the ordinary yield. In consequence of
this scarcity, the cocoons, though of inferior qua-
lity, maintain high prices. Bargains have been
closed at sf. 75c. and 6f. per kilogramme.
Advices from Warsaw to the 12th instant state
that the annual fair for the sale of wools had com-
menced, and that an unusually large number of
the provincial wool-growers had arrived with
heavily laden vehicles. There was every appear-
ance of a busy fair, on account of the result of
those held at Breslau and Cracow, when prices
ruled high. It is calculated that the prices at
Warsaw this season will exceed those of pre-
vious. years, from 10 to 15 thalers per quintal ;
and that the produce will be greater than last season.
The inquiry for money in the discount market
continues moderate, but at present there are no
symptoms of increased easiness, full employment
for capital being found at the current rates. After
the payment of the dividends on Public Securities,
and the liquidation of the next instalment on the
New Loan, namely, on the 28th inst., some slight
reduction in the quotations is expected, and it is
not considered improbable that the Bank ofEngland
Directors may find it necessary to effect an altera-
tion in the official minimum.
The Parliamentary proceedings last night rela-
tive to Mr. Crampton s dismissal, and the views
of our Government on the subject have fa-
vourably influenced the English Stock Market. A
further improvement of f per cent. in prices
having occurred. Although the dispute between
England and America will necessarily occupy a
considerable time for its adjustment, there is no
longer any doubt of the pacific intentions of the
United States Government, notwithstanding the
unpleasant policy they have deemed it necessary
to pursue. Under these circumstances the Funds
are quiet but buoyant, and Consols have been
almost stationary at 941 -a. The Scrip has been
dealt in at 3 premium, the prices having ranged
from 21 to 31.premiurn. The New 3 per Cents.
are 941 to 95k, and the Reduced Ng g. Exchequer
Bills are 7s. premium. Bank Stock is 217 to 218.
For Foreign Securities there has been a firm
market, and the transactions have been rather
numerous, whilst 6 per Cents. have risen to 100
and 1001 for money, and 100 to 1001 for account.
The 6 per Cents, are nearly k per cent. higher, viz.,
104 to 1041. Spanish 3 per Cents. are 47, and do.
Deferred 251 ft. Sardinian bonds were dealt in at
91/ to 92k. Russian 4k per Cents., 98k. Peruvian
6k per Cents. 78i to 79, and the 3 per Cents. 56.
Mexican rose to 221 Dutch 4 per Cents. were
961. Brazilian 5 per Cents. 92, and Chilian 6 per
Cents. 105.
The following are the nominal prices of Foreign
Stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 6174 ; Mexican,
22i ; Peruvian, 77 9 ; 'ditto 3 per Cents., 54 6;
Portuguese 4 per Cents., 50 2 ; Russian 5 per

3 per Cents., 47 1; ditto Deferred, 25k 1; ditto
Certificates, 61 7 ; ditto Passive, 7 1.
English Railway Shares have all advanced, and
a fair amount of business has been done. The
principal lines are generally 1/. higher. The
foreign and colonial are also buoyant.
Mines, Banks, and Miscellaneous Shares are all
much firmer.
