CITY, Two o'CLocK.
The Bank of England weekly return of liabilities
and assets, completed to the 19th inst., is of a
satisfactory character. The bullion, notwithstand-
ing the large amounts that have been forwarded to
the continent, shows an increase of one hundred
thousand pounds sterling. The reserve of notes is
larger by nearly a quarter of a million, and the other
aecurities show a decrease to the extent of half a
tailhon. The public deposits have increased
nearly two millions, but the private deposits
shun► a falling off of about a million
and a quarter. In the Government securi-
ties there is an augmentation of one million.
In the-otber items of the balance-sheet there is little
Variation that requires special notice ; they will be
seen from the subjoined table.

The amount which went into the Bank yester-
day-was about 52,0001., and it is expected that part
of the remittances brought by the Red Jacket will
be similarly appropriated.
A prospectus will_ shortly appear of a new
Brazilian loan for a million and a half sterling.
The interest offered will be 4i per cent., and the
amount is to be appropriated to the completion of
the Dom Pedro Railway, the shares of which already
Dolmas a guaranteed rate of interest of 7 per cent.
Other financial schemes are likely to be brought
forward during the next few months ; but unless
the investing public show a greater willingness to
eelploy their surplus means than they have lately,
it is doubtful whether any groat success will attend
them.

Notice has been given that the Great Southern
of India has obtained a guarantee of 5 per
eut. on their subscribed capital of a million from
the Ron. East India Company.
La the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday the
1141.68 amounted to 7,900 bales, 1,500 of which
W9re taken for expbrt and on speculation. The
iarket closed quietly. The Railway Share
Market was steady at last week's rates.
t_ Since Monday last the imports of specie have
1-"511 about 802,1891., and the exports 136,6771.,
exclusive of the following shipments direct from
Loudon to the continent during the week ending
Thursday last :
Gold Coin—Hambro' 4,000 oz.

Owing to the result of the debate the Funds have
Presented an improved appearance, and although
the transactions were limited they have indicated
increased confidence. Much satisfaction is expressed
inall departments of business, and it is now imagined
that during the remainder of the session affairs will
Proceed more harmon io usl y. Consols for transfer have
been 98 to 981 ; and for account 98k 1. They are
now 98 to 98k ; and for July 98k I. The New
