(From The Sun of Last Night.)
Sales to a moderate extent were effected in Cotton at
Liverpool on Saturday, and there was a steady feeling.
4,000 bales changed hands at previous rates. On the
whole business was rather heavier in Shares, but
Birmingham were in demand, and French were in
rather better request. Birmingham and Gloucester, 112;
Dublin and Cashel, 6 ; Edinburgh and Glasgow, Quarter,
16;.1 ; Lancaster and Preston, Quarter, I.i. ; Liverpool and
Manchester, 234; London and Birmingham, 232; Ditto,
Quarter, 27;4 ; Midland Counties, 1081; Sheffield and
Manchester, 86; South Eastern, 39; Orleans, Tours,
and Bordeaux, 2.

There are no arrivals to-day.
The Funds have opened to-day rather flatly, and in
the absence of any activity. The wet weather, of which
a continuance might damage the condition of the crops,
is assigned as the cause of the heaviness ; but, at the
same time, the Otaheite business is another. Consols for
Transfer have been 98i to 99k, and for Time 99 to f,
there having been one or two bona fide sales of Stock.
The Commissioners have taken 10,0001. at 99k. Bank
Stock is worth 200 to 200 i. Nothing has been
done in India Stock. Exchequer Bills have
been at a decline to 755. and 745. premium,
indicating a slight increase in the demand for
money. East India Bonds have been steady at 96 prem.
The New Three-and-a-Half per Cents, have been worth
1011 to 1011, and the Reduced to 1021 1021. The
Three per Cents. have been 99r- to 99:1.
A quiet business has been done in a few of the Foreign
Bonds at about Saturday's quotations. The advices from
Madrid are of rather a more satisfactory character in re-
spect to the bank of San Fernando continuing its
advances, bat there is no change in prices. The
Three per Cents, are 33, and the Five per Cents.
22/. Portuguese Converted are dull at 43:1. Mexican
Bonds realise 35 to 36, Colombian 13a to and Bra-
zilian 84f. Belgian are steady at lOn, Russian at
1201, and the Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at
61k to f.
There has been very little doing in Railway Shares,
but the quotations generally are about the same, being
supported.
