CITY, Two O'CLOCK.

The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed
firmly, without any material change. The sales 0
were estimated at 5,000 bales, 1,000 on specula- 31
tion and 500 for export ; comprising 30 Pernam
and Maranham, at 6 d. ; 200 Bahia, 6 7-16 d.: 100
Egyptian, 611 d. to Bd. ; 700 Surat, 4d. to sd. 22.1
per lb. The Railway Share Market was active,
with an improvement in prices.
IT
Accounts from the Vienna Bourse report a fur- .1
ther improvement in Austrian Securities. On the 5J
7th inst. the 5 per Cent. Metallics rose per
cent., to 841, and the 41 per Cents, were firm at 20
74. Austrian Railway Stocks were in demand at 10
255, and shares of the New General Bank of Credit 50
changed hands at 385. The Lombardo-Venetian '5
Railway Stock is also in request at 134. Exchange 1'
on London is 10-2, and on Paris 119. St.
Letters from Paris mention that the matter is ',3;•
spoken of in reliable quarters, of an extraordinary 25
session of the Legislative Body being convened
tt,.• 0
shortly, for the purpose of voting a New Loan of 1
300,000,009 f., as being necessary to cover the re- at.
maining expenses of the war. Should this be de- (-4
illumined upon by the Imperial Government, it
is probable that the funding of Treasury Bonds
l'ot.
will not be resorted to ; at the same time, there is
./t.
no doubt that the call for a New Loan will tend t.
further to depress financial matters in Paris. 3t

This day there was a meeting of the Alliance it.
Bank at the London Tavern, at which a statement 't•
was made by the directors. From this it appeared
that since the establishment of the bank, at the =0
beginning of the year, a nett profit of 6,6261. 10s. t'66l
3t
6d. had been made. The statement was received
as satisfactory.
LO3 The half-yearly meeting of the Colonial Bank
was also held this day ;C. Marryat, Esq., in the 'it
chair. The nett profits were 20,8681. 11s. 6d., out 21•
of which the directors recommended a dividend of 10
21 per cent., being at the rate of 5 per cent. per 124,
annum. The report was adopted. 10
The City of Baltimore, arrived from New York,
brings $60,000. The mails have not yet been de-
livered in the City.
In the continental exchanges yesterday after-
noon there was continued heaviness, and as gold
is now dearer in Paris than it is here further ship-
ments will no doubt be made.
From Paris we learn that a decline occurred in C
the price of the Rentes yesterday. This unfavour-
able movement is attributed to an increased de-
mand for money for commercial purposes, and to
the absence of most of the principal capitalists and ;0
speculators who are now taking their usual holiday. '1-
The English Funds have been dull, and Con-
St.
sols have been within a trifling fraction of 95/ St.
all the morning. The improved state of the St.
weather has produced increased firmness, but
the dealings have not been very numerous. 25
Consols opened at 95a- 1, then rose to 951
and have since ruled at the former quotation, St.
both for special transfer and to-morrow. The .0
August price is 96i The Scrip is at nomi-
nal rates. Exchequer Bills have been 165., 175., :8
and 20s, premium, and India Bonds 19s. to 225. ,
premium. The New Threes have ranged from u
96i to 97k, and the Reduced are marked 96.
.41
Bank Stock remains at 2181.
In Foreign Stocks business is very quiet. Sar-
dinian have been 921 to 931, being steady ; and St
Spanish Deferred are 24i. Turkish 6 per Cents. A
have brought 104 i for money, and 104 k g for ac-
count. The 4 per Cent. Guaranteed are supported
at 106 to 106 g. Belgian 41 per Cents, are 97.
The following are the nominal prices of Foreign 2
Stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 7i ; Mexi-
can, 221 ; Peruvian, 81 82 ; ditto 3 per Cents.,
57 8 ; Portuguese 4 per Cents , 49 51 ; Russian 5
per Cents., 112 114 ; ditto 4-i per Cents., 98 100 ;
Spanish 3 per Cents., 46i ; ditto Deferred,
; ditto Certificates, 6k ; ditto Passive, 617.
Railway shares are generally steady, but the
transactions are not numerous.- Caledonian, Great
Western, and South-Western, however, have
slightly declined. Most of the others are at an
advance, or maintain previous values. The French
and Belgian have not undergone any change of
importance. The Riga shares continue to improve,
being now as high as 5i and 6. BengsAs are 1
prem., and Ceylons 11 1 prem.
Joint-stock Banking Shares are rather lower.
The Miscellaneous are without any change of im-
portance.
