COMWEROIAL i rrELLIGENCI‘k

CITY, Two o'Cloox

The Liverpool Cotton *Mrp,rket, yesterday, closed
steadily. The sales were B,OOJ bales, including
2,000 for export, and on 'speculation. The Rail-
way Share Market closed iirrr.ly, and some of the
leading lines have advanc Al to a slight degree.
Accounts from the w'.•,,1 market at Breslau, of
the 29th August, state the animation exhibited at
the beginning of the a nonth had continued up to
that time, during whif oh about 3,000 quintals were
sold in the market ; and this might have been
greater had there been a sufficient quantity of
certain kinds of wool to meet the wants of the
manufacturers.. The p rincipal buyers were manu-
facturers an merchants from Saxony and the
Rhine, and agents from other places. The prices
realised wero as follows:—Silesian 95 rtti. to 112
ditto per quintal ; yearling ditto 98 to 100
rig thalers ; Sterbling 83 to 103 ditto ; long
staple in grease 75 to 80, and Hungarian 55 to 57
ditto per quintal.. The prices generally were much
the same as at 'previous sales, and holders of stock
bad no difficult yin selling. Up to the close of the
Month there l',ad been no wool of the present clip
received from Russia, but a supply was expected
shortly. Vile accounts from the Paris wool market
like wise report some degree of activity, as has been
exi• wrienced during the previous few weeks, and
Ad ces continued firm. This firmness appears to
be general throughout the continental markets.
The Bank of England Return, which is completed
fe .r the week ending the 30th ult., exhibits some
nfavourable features. A material addition has
h een made to the amount of private securities, and
the rest has slightly diminished ; but these changes
blay be partly ascribed to the demand for money
to meet the last instalment paid on the New
,Loan, and the preparations effected for the
ocanmercial arrangements of the 4th instant.
Vhe proceeds of the instalment referred
were handed over to the Bank of Eng-
ind ; hence the augmentation of the public depo-
s its. Money continues in active request, and the
brokers and capitalists find full employment for
their money at full rates ; consequently, the next
return is not likely to show any sensible ameliora-
tion. The bullion, owing to the continued ab-
straction of gold for transmission to the Continent,
has still further slightly declined.

It is expected that the affairs of the Royal
British Bank will be arranged by the shareholders
and depositors without an appeal to the Courts of
Chancery or Bankruptcy, which would only cause
Unnecessary delay and expanse. The views of the
depositors, expressed at the meeting last night,
it is thought, be met, as far as practicable, by
Most of the shareholders, who, up to the present
time, have shown every disposition to bring matters
to as favourable a termination as possible, notwith-
standing the heavy losses which they will inevit-
ably sustain.
The market for public securities has been rather
Unfavourably affected by the discouraging Bank of
England Returri, above analysed, but the prices of
the Funds have not been depressed more than
Per cent. Consols have been 94 to 95, and 94i
to 95 for money and the 10th inst. For October
they have been 95i I. The transfer books are
now closed for Bank Stock and the Reduced An-
nuities, but the latter were called 95g. The New
Threes are 95a I. Exchequer Bills are firm at 158.

Not more than half-a-dozen securities in the Fo-
reign Market have attracted business; but prices
have ruled firm. Turkish Small Bonds have been
1031, Dutch 4 per Cents. 98k, Sardinian 9111, Rus-
alan 5 per Cents. 1091, and Brazilian 1021 103.
The following are the nominal prices of Foreign
Stocks:—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 7± ; Mexican,
221 ; Peruvian, 80 2 ; ditto 3 per Cents., 58 9 ;
Portuguese 3 per Cents., 45i 6i ; Russian 5 per
Cents., 108 9 ; ditto 41 per Cents., ; Spa-
tial. 3 per Cents., 44/ 5 ; ditto New Deferred,
25 ; ditto Passive, 6i 7.

Railway Shares have been dull, and, with the
exception of Great Westerns, which are higher,
lower prices are current. The foreign and colonial
descriptions were generally at previous rates. Nor-
thern of France, however, have declined to 40,
Owing to the losses sustained by the reported em-
bezzlement of 40,0001. by two of the company's
Principal officials. Rigas are 11 prem.
Mines, Banks, and Miscellaneous shares are
heavy.

MINING INTELLIGENCE.--The reaction in the mining
market has been very rapid and great, whilst the demand
for good dividend mines increases daily, and prices are
recovering from the fall occasioned by the temporary
decline in copper. South Frances shares have advanced
to 365, ex div., and are in request. Mary Ann shares
bare reached 37 to 38 ; Basset, 290 to 300 ; Buller,
290 to 300 ; North Basset, in which a large business
has been transacted, 361 ; West Basset, 30 to 31 ;
Trewetha, 33 ; Gonatnena, 26 to 281 ; Devon Console,
405, In Grenville, large purchases have been made,
at 283. to 31s. ; in addition to ore coming into
the shafts at Newton Moor, the cross-cut in the 70
fin, level north, from the south mine, appears to
be approaching a lode. Trevelyan, 6 ; Wheal Wrey,
8 to 8f ; East Tolgus, after reaching 70 to 75, have
receded to 40, 50 ; Uny, 4 to 4i ; Alfred Consols, 13

FORGINGS FOR THE GREAT EASTERN STEAM SHIP.—
The huge forgings for the gigantic steamer Great Eas-
tern, at present building at Blackwall, were yesterday
%hipped to their destination. These forgings, made by
the Lancefield Forge Company, were described in the
Mai/ some months ago, and since that time they have
lain at Lancefihld, the company being unable to obtain
a shipmaster willing to undertake the very serious risk
of conveying them to the Thames. When lying at the
quay, yesterday, every one that passed stopped and
tared at the unwieldy but finely-finished blocks of iron,
and seemed perfectly amazed at their immense size. It
je highly creditable to the Lancefield Company that they
Were the only parties in the kingdom who would under-
take the manufacture of these, the largest forgings in the
World. Now that they have been shipped with-
out accident, it is to be hoped they will reach Black-
!tali iu safety,—Nort4 British Doily Atoll.
