COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, Two o'CLocK.

The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday mani-
fested rather more animation, but prices of all
descriptions were unaltered. The sales amounted
to 10,000 bales, 1,000 of which were taken by the
speculators, and 1,000 by the exporters. In Rail-
way Shares a very limited business was transacted,
and quotations were fully supported.
The directors of the Peel River Land and Mine-
ral Company state, in their annual report, that there
is a sum of 12,905/. 4s. Od. [available for a divi-
dend. It is therefore proposed to distribute 2s.
Per share, which will absorb 12,0001.
A report has also been issued by the
directors of the Crystal Palace Company,
Which is considered more favourable in its
general tenour than any yet issued. There is a
balance of profit of 13,7991. ; and if the results of
the present season are as profitab'e as they promise
to be, there is some probability of a dividend at
the end of the year. _ . .

Small quantities of silver contiinue to arrive from
the Continent, the Seine from Boulogne yesterday
having brought 23,0001. worth. The demand is
rather less active, and the steamer which will leave
for the East on the 26th is repeated to take out
only a limited supply. _ .

The official returns relative to to ads and naviga-
tion for the five months ended the 31st May, have
been published. From these it appears that the
total declared value of the exports from the United
kingdom 'for the five months -was 43,226,3711.
against 50,195,5411. in the like period of 1857,
showing a decrease of 6,969,1701.. The decrease is
perceptible in coals and culm, cotton manufactures,
earthenware, haberdashery and. millinery, linen
atanura,ctures, linen yarn, silk ?manufacture, and
thrown silk, woollen, and worsted manufactures,
Woollen and worsted yarn, and. hardware, and
cutlery.

The importation of the principal articles were
larger as regards raw cotton, rice, spices, and raw
sugar. There was a diminution in cocoa, leather
manufactures, raw silk, spices, tallow, tea, wine,
itrul sheep and lambs wool. The, shipping accounts
exhibit a slight improvement in the tonnage em-
ployed in both the Foreign and. Coasting trades,
both for the entries inwards maid the clearances
Outwards.

There was a general meeting of 'the Canada Com-
pany to-day, Charles Frank, E3q!.., in the chair.
The lands sold and leased from. Ist January to
28th May were 6,138 acres ; tolca lots, 12 acres.
The receipts were 24,1491. A dividend of 11. per
[lbws was agreed to. The report -was adopted.

The Funds are steady, but the transactions CMl-
tinue limited. There is scarcely .anything doipg,
either on speculation or for investment. With the
'exception (..f the daily purchases by the Bank
broker, there are no important operations
of a bona fide character. Consols have been
05i /, at which they have remained all day. The
New Threes and the Reduced arty 951 96k ; the
March Exchequer Bills, 365. pm. ; ditto June, 225.
Pin. ; and the Bonds, 100 k. Bank Stock is 220 to
221. _ _

The only transactions recorded in the Foreign
stock Market are in Brazilian Loan at 1 dis. ; Spa-
ttish Passive at 71 ; ditto Certificabes at 41 ; and
turkish 4 per Cents. at 104/ ; the 6 per Cents.

AIEATRE ROYAL, DRURY LANE.-Mr. E. T. Smith,

tile million to be partakers of it. Madame Persiani

Issued of praise to Messrs. Mapleson, the musical agents,
