CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was
firmer, the sales being estimated at from 5,000 to 6,000
bal:s, of which 1,500 Pernams were taken for export at
8,-td. per lb.—ln Railway Shares a good business was
done at fully previous rates.
The direction in which the accounts of the Bank of
England were tending last week, had been preserved
again up to the 7th inst., that is, the accemodation
afforded upon securities was extended, without any
larger amount of notes being in circulation, because of
the addition made to the sum of the public deposits.
The surplus profits of the corporation were larger, and
the amount of the precious metals sustained a slight
diminution. The balances of private depositors were
reduced, and will probably be lower yet ere the transfer
books re-open. The notes reserved in the banking de-
partment increased to some extent. Compared:with the
previous week the results are as follows:

Rest

Summing up the Railway traffic for the past week,
there is every reason to be gratified with the result, whe-
ther we take the lines of England, Ireland. or Scotland,
and we may observe, by the way, that in France there
has been a decided increase, although a special cause
may have contributed thereto, viz , the tcurs of the Pre-
sident. Taking the returns as they stand alphabetically,
we find an increase to the follovving amount:—Aber-
deen, 8011.; Amiens and Boulogne, 7161.; Bristol and
Exeter, 6541.; Caledonian, 6661.; Chester and Holy-
head, 1,350/.; Eastern Counties, 597/.; Edinburgh and

The Glasgow, Paisley, and Ayr, slightly decreased;
also the Glasgow and Greenock, •and the Whitehaven

during the week to Thsrsday last were 101,814 ounces of
silver to Belgium and Hamburgh; 2,500 ounces and 864
in gold to France.
