The sales of Cotton at Liverpool 3esterday were esti•
mated at from 4,000 to 5.000 hales, ef which neark
1,000 were taken for export. The market closed with-
out- spirit.—ln Railway Shat es a good business was
done at higher quotations.
The weekly statement of the Bank of England liabi-
lities and assets to the Bth instant shows a limitation
again in the employment of the funds of the esta-
bliAment, and a further increase of the bullion and un-
employed notes, the bast possible proof of the easintsa
of the motley market. The deposits, both to the
account of the Government and of private individuals,
were likewise increasing, and these together over-
balanced the augmentation in the loans, which would
otherwise have led to an extension of active circulation.

of the continental cities. Paris was quoted 25.75,

this week has been 40,276 ounces, and of gold 6,087
ounces, the former to Belgium, and the latter chiefly to

port upon the state of trade, especially at Leeds, where
more has been done than for several weeks past.
