CITY, Two O'CLOCK.

From the manufacturing districts the accounts
are still of an unfavourable character. The woollen
trade at Leeds has continued exceedingly inactive
during the past week, without any change, how-
ever, in prices. Cloths and yarns at Manchester
have been dealt in to a very limited extent, owing
to the advanced rates demanded by manufacturers
in consequence of the rise in the value of cotton.
At Bradford wools and yarns have been dealt
in to a moderate extent, but the transactions in
piece goods have only been for immediate require-
ments. The hosiery trade at Leicester has con-
tinued exceedingly dull, and most of the mills are
only working about three days in the week. At
Birmingham, Sheffield, Wolverhampton, and the
principal hardware districts, only limited transac-
tions have taken place, chiefly for borne demand.
The iron trade of South Staffordshire has been dull,
pending the quarterly meeting of the ironmasters
at Birmingham on Thursday next.
In the Liverpool Cotton Market, on Saturday,
business continued rather active, and prices were
very firm. The sales were about 10,000 bales.

There is still an active demand for money, and
it is freely supplied at rrevious rates, but increased
firmness is considered probable, owing to the usual
absorption towards the end of the month. A fort-
night later, however, greater easiness may be
anticipated, consequent upon the release of the
April dividend. The enquiry for loans at the
Stock Exchange is also well maintained, and full
terms are paid for the accommodation.
About £39,000 in gold was sent into the Bank
of England on Saturday, but 10,000 sovereigns
were withdrawn.

The traffic receipts of the Great Western Railway
of Canada for the week ending the Bth inst. ex-
hibited an increase of £677 compared with the same
period in 1860.

The market for Public Securities is extremely
dull, and continued heaviness has been manifested.
There appeared to be a disposition to effect sales in
consequence of an impression that the finances of
the Government are in rather an unfavourable
state. Consols are 912- 1- for money, and 92 for the
account. India 5 per Cents. is steady at 1001 ;
ditto 51 per Cent. Enfaced Paper has receded to
991, and Exchequer Bills to 9s. and ss. dis.
The dealings in the Foreign Market have been
limited, and prices show no material variation.
Turkish 6 per Cents. are 741 75 ; ditto, 1858, 541
55 ; Spanish are firm at 49 ; Sardinian at 821 ;
and Dutch 21 per Cents. at 64 ; Mexican remain
at 241; but Buenos Ayres are flat at 84.
The dealings in the Railway Share Market have
been very limited, and a slight decline has taken
place in the rates realised for several of the princi-
pal undertakings. Great Northern, North Western,
and Midland have receded 55., and Eastern Coun-
ties 10s. ; North-Eastern (Berwick), however, have
improved 55., and South-Eastern ss.
In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings only
a limited business has been done, and previous rates
are barely sustained. Great Luxembourg realise
; Sambre and Meuse, 5i 6 ; Recife and San
Francisco, 11,E ; Grand Trunk of Canada, 21 ;
Greet Western of Canada, 11,1 ; East Indian have
receded 991 ; and Great Indian Peninsula are
steady at 951.

Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares are
flat. London and County have declined ss. ;
Electric Telegraph, 1 ; and Red Sea Telegraph
have improved ss.
