CITY, Two o'CLocK.

The accounts from the manufacturing districts
are-of a rather more satisfactory character. At
Manchester there has been increased activity dur-
ing the past week, and both piece goods and yarns
have improved in :value. At Leeds a fair average
business has been done in the various
warehouses, the demand for the better
class of cloths has been steady. Most
of the manufacturers are now well employed upon
goods for the autumn trade. At Bradford the
demand for the .home trade has been moderately
active, and some inquiry has been experienced for
exportation to the United States. Yarns continue
dull, the high values of wool preventing spinners
from entering into fresh contracts at the present
Market rates. The hosiery trade at Leicester con-
tinues active, and some large export orders from
the 'United States have given full employment to
most of the operatives. The iron trade of South
Staffordshire has shown little change of importance ;
prices continue steady, with a rather upward ten-
dency. At Birmingham, Sheffield, Wolverhamp-
ton, and in most of- the hardware manufacturing
districts there has been a fair bUsiness, chiefly for
the home demand, and prices have been well main-
tained.

The general inquiry for discount accommodation
is increasing, as usual, towards the end of the
quarter. At' present, however, the augmented
applications have not influenced the terms charged
for accommodation, as they still range, as low as 21
per cent. for the best descriptions of paper.

The Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday closed
with a more animated appearance, and 9,000 bales
Were sold at extreme rates. In Railway Shares a
fair amount of business was transacted, and prices
tended upwards. _ .

The Canada has been announced this morning
from America with £253,702 and the Sultan from
the Peninsula, with £12,219.

Continued firmness is reported in the rate of
exchange in New York on London. Large remit-
tances of gold are consequently made, which sustain
the general importation at a high point.
A:general, improvement has been apparent at
the Stock Exchange to-day, for although the
transactions have been limited, an upward tendency
has been created by the prospect of the war being
confined to Italy and the disposition shown to
speculate for an advance. The scarcity of stock
lately produced some buoyancy, and although
Money purchases may temporarily cease, the
effect of the late investments is still ex-
perienced. Consols have been 921 93, and since
then they have been 93 to 934, being very firm.
Special transfers of Consols have taken place at
94 944., cum. div. A rise of about per cent, has
also taken place in the New Threes and Reduced
Annuities, the former being quoted 93.1 1, and the
lager 931 a. Exchequer Bills continue steady at
235. to 265. prem. East Indian Securities are
attracting more attention, and a general improve-
Mont has taken place within the last fortnight. The
Debentures to•day have been 944 ; and the Scrip is
931. Most- of the Railway Shares are also at
higher quotations. _ _ .

Foreign Securities have fully participated in the
amelioration. A fair amount of business has been
transacted, and in most cases at enhanced rates.
Turkish Bonds have shown the most buoyancy ;
the Old 6 per Cents. have been 73 741,
and the New 60, 61. They are now (two
o'clock) 74 75, and 63 65 respectively.
Dealings have taken place in Spanish Three per
Cents. at 42, and in the Deferred at 296 being
firmer ; in Peruvian Bonds several bargains have
been concluded; the 41 per Cents. are marked 841
86; do. Uribarren 781, and 3 per Cents. 651. Mexican
stock is rather higher, viz., at 181 to Q. Accounts
received to-day, via New York, state that a conducts
With 'several millions of dollars, was to leave
There`,
on the 24th of May for Vera Cruz.
,Itere, have been no transactions in Venezuelan
the°tido, although the advices from Caracas, through
same channel, are rather unsatisfactory.
Grenada, Active Bonds are 161, and the Deferred
; Brazilian Fives have been dealt in at 100.
In the Railway Share Market the dealings have
been rather active, and, in some instances, a further
iftlprovement has taken place of about 1 to 1 per
in most of the principal undertakings. North
Western, Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, Mid-
land, and North Stafford, have advanced 55.;
Eastern,. Counties, Great Western, Lancashire and
Yorkshire, North British, and North Eastern (Ber-
Vick) 10s. ; North Eastern (Leeds), 155., and Cale-
donian, L 1 ; London and Blackwall have declined
is 11; and London and Brighton, 10s.

In the Foreign Market a very limited business
4fts been transacted ; prices, however, show an up-
Vard tendency. Lombardo-Venetian Old Shares
ktve advanced to 6 64 and the New Shares to
al
z_6ll. Sambre and Meuse advanced ss.

The Colonial lines have been in fair request.
treat Indian Peninsula have improved 10s. to 15s. ;

Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous shares are
loderately active, at a slight improvement on
cornier rates. Bank of Australasia have advanced

Iralasian Agricultural, 10s. Royal Mail Steam

2718 CATHOLIC MEMBERS AND THE
LATE DIVISION.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—The best reply to the assertion, that the
Catholic members are no longer faithful to Liberal
tilliciples,is to be found in the division of Saturday
44orn jug..
1... At the last election 32 Catholic members wore
13:turned. Of this number 30 voted, Mr. Fagan
1!'Ig dead, and Mr. Brady alone absent.
of the 30 present at the division, no less than 22
toted
with the Liberal party, and only eight with
he
Conservatives.
these eight supporters of the Derby Government
%4 not, however, be all classed as deserters from
Liberal camp. Mr. Hennessey was returned as
an avowed Derbyite, and one or more of the other
fa,
e,,lren have long been known to hold, to a certain
`nt at least, Tory opinions.
;.
rii'Lt is to be observed, that had all the Catholic
Nv'lll,bers voted with Government the numbers
40°;itil have been—For Government, 332 ; against,
; thereby giving a majority of 31 to Lord
