NB MARKET AND CITY NEWS.

CITY, Two o'CimCK.
During the past week the accounts from the
manufacturing districts have again been of an
unsatisfactory character, partly owing to the pro-
gress of political events in America. At Man-
chester the dealings had been limited, and confined
almost exclusively to home requirements. The
woollen trade at Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield
has continued inactive, but a fair amount of business
nay been done in the hosiery trade, at Leicester,
Rinekley, and Nottingham. In the various hard-
Ware districts there is little change of importance
to record, the principal dealings having been for
home demand, in connection with harvest work.
A few orders, however, have been received at Bir-
mingham and Sheffield from Canada and Germany.
• 4. considerable amount of business was recorded
111 the Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday, and
Prices were steady. The sales were about 8,000

of
£16,000 in gold was sent into the Bank
c' tagland on Saturday.
5, The Sultan, from Lisbon, has arrived with about
4238°0 in specie.
• Although there is very little alteration to notice
.14 the general condition of the Money Market, the
!nquiries have slightly increased, which is attributed
the expenditure in the agricultural districts
4)outing to the operations connected with the harvest.
The rates, moreover, are rather firmer, but no
ar,t aal change has yet occurred, and the best bills
""are
still negotiable as low as 41:7 per cent. In con-
Ben
luenee of the continuous influx of gold into the
Sauk of England and the favourable accounts of
e crops, there is still a confident expectation that
Increased easiness will speedily prevail.
The
Market for Public Securities has been
tnex-
ceedinglyo dull to-day, and the attendance of the
clilhera is very limited. Consols for money are
