COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. I Sr.h

CITY, Two O'CLOCK. 12
The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday was steady at previous prices. The sales amounted to 13 50
:
10,000 bales, 5,000 of which were taken for export and on speculation. In the Railway Share Market st, business was rather firmer, at a slight improvement n 25
s
in the current quotations. Accounts from Man- '
chester, in reference to trade, state that the Ger- St.
man and Russian houses had been increasing their st.
Purchases of yard andtwist, and for India also an im- 50
proved inquiry existed in worsted and woollen goods. i2B
At Leicester business was extremely dull, partly
100
owing to the high prices of wool. At Leeds the 10
preparations for the spring trade are imparting 25/ °t
some activity to the market, and the shipping
.51:
- houses have already received large orders for sum- V.
nthgoods. The lace trade of Nottingham has st.
raer improved, but in oth'dr branches of business 25
there is no alteration to report. st.

UP to the present timeonlybout 60,0001. of the l-()2, 0070001. and upwards of gold received by the st: feather Bell, Centurion, and Morning Light, has 2!
been sold to the Bank of England, and although a k
further small parcel may be delivered to- 10 1
day, there is every probability of the re- 10
mainder being remitted to the Continent. For-
tunately it is known that large supplies will st.

and nearly due, otherwise a recurrence of the 5025

merit Will no doubt continue to excite
attention, because the Bank of France
13 believed to be increasing its metallic supplies by
Purchases in the London market.
%The inquiry for capital in Lombard-street and at
Ne Bank of England is rather quieter, but the ap-
; ',cions for discounts are still very numerous,
and the Bank's rata is fully maintained.
