The commercial sdvces by the Baltic are quite r.

funds are inactive. This inaction arises in great
degree from an absence of business, owing to so
many Of the habitues Of the Stock Exchange being
out Of town, and TO the impression prevalent that
this victory will by no means terminate the war,
but that the Emperor viii be melted By bis reyerses
to desperate struggles in other quarters where
IT will be LEES easy TO reach him. Great gloom has
been cast upon the public mind by the mme Dse loss
Of life reported and il can scarcely be expected but
that the allies must have also suffered severely al
though probably TO much LEES extent. Money is IN
active demand, and will be so TO meet the CONNER
cial bills falling due tomorrow. The arrivals OF

dends receivable next week will afford considerable
relief ard may expect 10 receive about 900
in gold and specie from Australia during the

wired at sea.
The demand for money was still active, and the
rates were maintained, but the supplies rather
better A better state OF the discount market was
looked for after the 4th There had been no revival
Of the demand for gold for the Continent.
The accounts Of the state OF trade in the manufac-
turing towns are entirely without any new feature.
At Manchester there are dulness and caution, bar
want of general stability.
The Board OF Trade returns for the month ending
5th September show the exports for the month
amounted in value to ia, being within frac
ton Of half million in Of those for the
responding month Of last year, and very nearly two
millions over those of 1859. For the first eight months

The Ne~s says:
"a painful feeling hss been produced by the
noun c. ment Of the failure Of Mr.. Edward LawfDrd,
city solicitor OF standing, of Diapers Hall. Mr..
eitor 10 the East India Company. TIE most Distress
ing feature Of the case consists in the imputs'ion that
the party in question rs involved in transactions Of
peculiar and very painful character. especially con-
sdeing the respectabIty of the sphere IN which he
has hitherto moved
The following paragraph from The O5serrer pro-
baby refers to the same person:
"a very painful sensation produced this after.
noon among the limited few who became aware OF the
circumstance by the statement that ar eminent sooi-
tors firm acting the legal adviser at great publc
Company has been committing extensive forgeres,
10 the injury Of clients whD had title and trust deeds
deposited with it. One or two instances of grevous
character have been mentioned in which are Involved
the interests of pOdcing men OF business, Who have
been for years accommodating moderate competency,
and II the current be true, the disclosures will
throw into the shade those arising out of Mr. Coles
frauds, so lately exposed under this head
In regard to the movement of COns9k The Times
has the following remarks:
Throughout oil the last wars in which England
was engaged few Of the most important victories
produced rise of more than or per cent although
the range Of Consols then usually between 50 and
CO. and there ample room for most extensive re-
bound. With the price almost at 80, and the total
absence previously of any dread as to the financial
consequences Of the present struggle no other thana
moderate movement could have been looked for. IL
is probable however that hencefOrth the market viii
assume a degree OF intrinsic stability which, notwith-
standing the recent absence of huctuation, has
during the past three or four weeks been rather
wanting"
