MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TW 0 O'CLOCK.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was firm
and active, and prices of all descriptions were id. per lb.
dearer. The better kinds of American were in good re-
quest for export. The salsa were estimated at 12,000
bales, of which 1,000 American and 500 Brazil were
taken for export, and 1,500 American and 1,500 Surat
on speculation. The sales comprised about 7,000 Ame-
rican and 1,800 Pernam and Maranham at lid. to 811,
200 Bahia at Bd., 800 Egyptian at 14. to Bd., 2,500
Surat at 41d. to 6d, and 50 Sea Island at ls. lid. to
ls. 3d. per lb.—ln Railway Shares but little business
was done at lower quotations.
The Colonial Markets are fully supplied with produce,
the arrivals within the last few days having been large.
Messrs. Bateman and Von Dadeltcm, jun., inform us
upon the state of the Tin market, that—
" While the quantity of Bence, Tin at the ensuing
Dutch sale is only 117,937 slabs, against 249,937 last
est., it is important to keep in view, that even out of
this comparatively limited quantity of 117,766 slabs,
Great Britain will require a considerable portion, judg-
ing from the fact, that we have a greatly increased con-
sumption going on here, and that we have already im-
ported several large parcels of Banca Tin from Holland
during the current year, upon nearly all of which duty
has Leen paid, and has gone into consumption, thereby
showing that the production cf British Tin is not equal
to our home consumption, and for our usual demand fur
exportation.

and if we take the export fur the remaining seven months
of this year to be only equal to the first five months, we
would require 1,500 tons more, or the enormous quan-
tity of 3,000 tons annually for the manufacture of tin
plates alone for exportation. It will be seen that this
just about double the quantity that was used for the
same purpose in 1848. The demand for tin plates still
continues upon as extensive a scale as ever, but whether
this demand will be permanent, and if so, whether such
an additional quantity of tin can be directed to the ma-
nufacture of tin plates without affecting the present
prices, and to what extent, we leave each one to form
his own opinion."
