CITY, T 0 O'CLOCK. I
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was temp,
and prices of American at 6iel. t.) 7.1. were nearly
per lb. lower, sod easier to buy. The sales e ere esti-
mated at 4000 baler, of which 500 American were taken
for export. The transactions etuopristel 3.500 Ameri
can, 200 Egyptian at 743. to Bd., and 300 Surat at 4id.
to 5i 1. per lb.—Railway
Shares were dull.
la the Colonial produce markets this week prices have
been fairly sustained. Sugar has been more I xtensirely
sold, and Tea bar been in better demand. Coif. e rather
dull. Wool eel's weedily
at the auctions. Some Natal
Cotton has realised high prices.
The difficulty of adjusting the savings' bank system
to the nice poiut
which shall allow of full participation
of beeches to else poorer classes, and yet not entail a
loss upon the revenue by giving to parties of some
means a higher rite of icterest than they may be fairly
entitled to, or et least could without risk obtain, iii much
in favour of the joint stock banks, which are disposed
to act with more than ordinary liberally towards their
customers, and, like their Scotch competitors, are neither
chary of trouble, punc7ilious about the amount of ba'ances,
or averse to small and safe loans rather than auxious
about those of a larger and more speculatire character.
Having heard the frequent complaints of want of aecom-
moda-lou for tire more humble but perfectly solvent
traders, and the neidency of the joint-stock banks to
launch out into a more wealthy connexion, in proportion
as they acquired a firm footing, we hailed with sat'sfac-
tion the entrarice into the erena of another com-
petitor, and felt that if the promises of its pro-
jectors were carried out in their integrity, the Royal
British Dank would be of great service to that portion
of the community which was not provided for. This
establishment has now branches in the Strand, at Lam-
beth, Yorksstrect, Westminster, and Islington, end in a
prise e report made by the directors to the shareholders
concerning the result of about six months' operations,
very encouraling circumstances are et Lied. Of the -de-
posit accounts for fixed periods of six months there have
been opened at the Lead office 318; of current or draw-
ing accounts, 839; of discount accounts, 212; cash
credits, 118; and isolated loans or advances on promis-
wry notes, with convertible securities, 30; making 1,517
account!, or an average for the 156 days of about 10
new accounts and customers per day. That there has been
no forcing of berine:s we may infer by the fact
that althou;h 118 cash credits, amounting to 69,9.10/,
have been opened, offers for the like to the extent of
90,000/. have been declined. The diseoures declined
would have represented the sum of 153,6001., and the
advances on promissory notes and convertible securities
to 82,900/. The total amount received by the ,bank
since its commencement has been 2,518,369/. 16'. 6d.,
and that paid 2 491 7861. 11s. 3d , and this divided by
GS,C62, the cumber of operations, fives an average for
each transaction of only 731. 12s. 2d., a corroboration of
the assertion that the bank does accommodate the class
who most need it, and especially those who never before
deposited their ant plus assets in a plane of safety. It is
highly creditsble to the other joint stuck banks in the
metropolis that they have most ditieterestedly fa*oured
the now establishment.

The boldre.is of Lord John Russell's declaration in

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.

Increased supplies of English Wheat, 2,510 quarters,
have been received up to our market this weak coast-
wise, To day the receipts by land carriage were tilling,
but, we had several of Monday'3 unsold samp'es on offer.
Owing to the prevailieg fine weather fvr the growing
crops, and the small runther f buyers in attendance,
the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce was
in a very inactive eta e, at barely last week's quotations.
From abroad upwards of 12,000 quarters of Wheat have
come in. Fine qualitira of both red and white were
held at full rates of currency. In the middling
and inferior kinds next to nothing was doing.
In English Barley scarcely a transaction took place.
The supply of Foreign was seasonably large. All kinds
were a slow sale, but not cheaper. Malt was in mode-
rate supply and heavy del:aisle', at last week's prices.
Scarcely any English Oats were on show, and the
quantity of Foreign was nct large. On the whole, the
Oat trade was steady, at late rates. Beans, Peas, In-
dian Corn, and Flour were very dull in sale.

Notwiths'andingtLt the supply of Beasts in to-day's
matket was limited, even the time of year considered,
the demand fir that description of stock ruled heavy,
at barely Monday's decline in the quotations. The
numbe,r of Sheep were seasonably larg,, and of lull
alerage quality. All breeds moved off slowly, but we
have no chauge to notice in prices. There were 30U
M, Tinos offering from Germany. Primo small Lambs
sold at previous rates. In other breeds %cry little business
was transacted. Calves were in large supply, and heavy
demand, at drooping figures. In Pigs so little was doing
that their value was alreott nominal. Milch Cows sold
at from 141 to 181 earl', iceludirg their amall Calf.
