COMMERCI IL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, Two o'CLocz

Letters from Liverpool state that the Cotten
Market, yesterday, closed with an upward ten-
dency, and compared with Friday's rates, prices of
all .kinds were rather higher. Maccio were id.
dearer, and ether Brazil id. per lb. dearer. The
Railway Share Market was exceedingly inactive,
and prices receded.

During the six months ending the 30th ult., the
exports of bullion were in excess of the receipts.
Messrs. Huggard and Pixley have just issued a
statement of the amounts sent away from London,
and the results are subjoined.

Further symptoms of recovery were apparent in
the Paris Bourse yesterday, and providing political
affairs present no unfavoural9le features, a continued
reaction is not improbable. The Bank of France is
not. enabled to reduce the terms of discount so
rapidly as was expected when the rate was lowered
from 6to 5i per cent., but the tendency of the
.Money Market is towards a further improvement,
and the Funds and Shares may therefore be con-
sidered at low prices. In France, as in England, the
prospects of the harvest are encouraging, and the
yield of silk promises a more satisfactory result
than was lately predicted. Trade also is flourish-
ing, and it is believed that. both financial and
commercial prospects of tlae country are favour-
able. wider these circumstances the late fall on
the Bourse has either not been justified, or there
`is something with which the general public are not
acquainted to account for the movement. Pur-
chasers of stock, however, have now appeared, and
a rally took place yesterday of 10 centimes in the
Rentes, and on the average of about 10 francs in
railway shares.

This day a special meeeing of the Newport, drc.,
Railway Company was held, when the bill for
making a railway to Aberdare and Bargord Valley
Was agreed to.

At the meeting of the East Kent Railway Com-
pany, the bill proposing to make a line from Herne
Bay to Faversham was adopted.
The Bank taf England Directors after some dis-
mission at their " parlor" meeting to-day, deter-
mined upon making no immediate alteration in
the terms of discount, but as accommodation in
the best descriptions of paper can be ob-
tained at 54 per cent., and the supply
of money is. abundant, the delay will occa-
sion no disappointment. The public at,"the present
moment, especially as the dividendvare in course
of Payment, are not in want of so much assistance
as they were a few weeks since, and the market
therefore is quiet, with a declining tendency.
Although the measure has not been adopted
to-day, it is thought that it cannot consistently be postponed beyond next week. It is desirab'e
that the "other securities" should be materially
reduced-before increased facilities ara offered. An
improvement, however, in this respect may be pro-
duced by the payments of the 4th, and the return
of the loans obtained upon stock during the
Period of the shutting.
Between 90,0001. and 100,0001. in gold was taken
into the Bank yesterday.
"Very little change has taken place in the English
Stock Market to-day, and business has been very
dull. The settlement has progressed favourably
and money in the "House" is exceedingly easy,
loans having been obtained from day to day at 3 and
per cent, Therehasbeenno fluctuation in prices.
