There is a moderate ainonnt of inquiry for India staples, and also for shirtings for China, and a fair proportion of it has been put through. For most other descriptions of goods the inquiry is rather slow, and buyers continue to act cautiously, ana yei the sales of some kinds have reached a respectable amount. Most mates of heavy cloths are qmto dull, For yarns there is a poor demand, and sellers who sought slightly to improve prices vnentne cotton market was excited last week are now somewhat easier to deal with. On the whole, prices show no appreciable change in either the cloth or tbe yarn departments. The London quotation for bar silver advanced j'id.

Valentin Mariana Albiol, Itead of the Custom-house of Alicante, a copy of a new work entitled Orgoniiocion del Personal da Adunnas on Varias Xociones Extranjeros." The work is the first of its kind in Spain, and deals with tho Customs Ibws, regulations, procedure, in Eng land, France, Belgium, Italy, and Portugal Its main object is apparently to afford information which may be useful ia promoting administrative reforms in tlie Spanish Customs. It is remarkable that the American Treasury continues to succeed in getting its silver, or at least tiie equivalent in certilicah'S, into circulation. Thus, notwithstanding tlie constant addition ot 2,000,000 silver dollars per month to tho coinage, the net amount of gold bald by tbo extant of about 125,000 gallons. "At first sight," observe Messrs, Bidley and in their monthly Wine. and Sptnt Trtie Circular, "this appears to be mora disastrous than it really is, for on referring to the Trade and Navigation Returns of the previous two years we find that in July, 1837, the home consumption of Spanish white was abnormally groat, being no less than 50,403 gallons ahead of the same month in 1385.
So that, bad as last month appears to have been, it was at least better than the corresponding one of 1S3S." Wines from countries other than those enumerated have, with a gain for the month of 27,259 gallons, been not only able to wipe off the deficit winch stood against them at tlio end of June, hut to show an increase of 13,766 gallons for tho expired portion of 1S8B. On the whole, wines show a total incroase for July of 48,134 gallons, end for the seven months one gallons. 4 railway project of considerable importance, for Russia In particular and for the grain trade generally, will, tho Russian papers state, be realised in the near future. For some time past efforts have been made to utilise the waterways of Siberia in order to provide on outlot for its produce to the Western markets. The Nor- dimskjold expedition demonstrated the impossibility of carrying on any regular traffic by WBy of the Arctic Ocean.
It is now proposed to overcome the difficulty by connecting tlie Obi with a harbour to the west of the island of Vaigatz, and the Russian Government has ap proved of this scheme for tho most nortlierly railway in the world. The projector's intention is to carry tho road in such a 'direction that it will avoid tho mouth of the Obi, the Obi hay, the Ynlmal peninsula, and the Sea of Kara, which present the greatest difficulties for naviga tion. The starting point of the line (which will be about 270 miles long) will be at Obdorsk, and the termination at a port to be constructed on one of the hays of tlie Vaigatz Sea, where it will bo protocted from dangerous weather by the mountain ndgo P.n-Klitii. The construc tion will not present any serious difficulties, owing to tlie level nature of the country and tlie abundance of wood. The line is estimated to cost about or, includ ing the port, rolling stock, and barges, about 2,000,000.
It is anticipated that the amount ot grain ex. ported by tit* new route will reach 9375,000 cwt. At present the produce of the region travels from Barnaul through Tumou, Perm, and St, Petersburg to London, taking three months in tbe journey. With tiie opening cf the new route, however, tire journey will only occupy from twenty-one to thirty-one days. Tho cost ot transport will sIsd be diminished by one-half.
Western Siberia alone produces about 12,000,000 cwt of wheat, and it is stated that this quantity might be easily doubled. It seems not improbable that sliould an outlet be thus provided for Siberian produce, a fall in the price of wheat will adversely affect the agricultural interests of Russia in Europe. Tho Melbourne correspondent of the Irommvjer, cabling under date August 9, slates that several furtlicr reductions in selling values have taken place during the last fortnight, galvanised iron fencing wire and Scotch pig being each 5s. easier. For the time of the year tbe general volume of trade Is still considered good, but a further decline in prices can scarcely be averted unless consignments ore rcstucteu.

Tha House of Commons concluded its labour! jester jay so far as the business to be taken before tbe Holidays was ooncerueu, uuu, iu uoi a surprising, tho final sitting was not free from a display of that spirit which has made the recent session one somewhat fruitful in scenes. The contest, such as it was, arose out of the Mortmain and Charitable Uses Act, Mr, E. IOBBIiTSO accusing tho Government of having, in express disregard of a decision of the House of Commons earlier in the vear accepted on Saturday one of tho Lords' amend-' rv.n.,i n.fni menus wnicu cabuiiim uvb6v, v.v., from the operation of tbo Act. Mr.
W. If. Sumi made an excuse, the effect of which was that the Government wore pioceo yi me posiiiun ot enuur. accepting the amendment or losing the bill, but thst did not satisly tho hon. mouther for Dundee, who threatened to take the first opportunity in tbo autumn session moving to disincorporate Kcbla College altogether.
Mr. IlWw.1, said he would at the earliest possible moment move the repeal of the clause objected to, and linrs Kodebts indignantly charged the Government with having been guilty oi a picas ui vaiy jik-tiee." Other members joined in deprecating tha course which had been taken, All this took place nn a. motion bv Mr, W. L. acksos for tha adjourn ment of the House, which, after Sir TV.
Laivsos assured that any designs entertained by Baron De TVobms upon the price of sugar could not be carried out without discussion in tbe House, ma carried. The House adjourned until the that November 6. The House of Lords met yesterday for the time before the onenini? of tbe autumn session, the only business which occupied the attention peers was tbe giving tne itoyai assent oy coin-mission to 19 Acts of Parliament.

London, Monday Night. The money market was hardly so firm ia tone to-day, though there was little change ia The market is still under the influence of the unknown as to how far this week's gold shipments to the Plate will affect this market. To-day it was reported that the inquiry for gold in the open market had ceased, and that all the gold required for this week's shipment bad been secured on the Continent. On tho other hand, private advices from Paris report that an inquiry for gold was made at the Bank of Franco on Saturday and was refused, and that another application was made to-day to that institution. Tho Bank of Germany has also placed dilliculties Hi the way of gold Withdrawals and no more than 160,000 from the epen market is expertcd from that quarter.
Notwithstanding the conflicting rumours about gold, dealers show little disposition to bid for bills. Three and four mouths hank bills were in one case done at 2f per cent, but the market quotations were 2 to for three months, 2 for four months, and to 3i for sii months. Money was in moderate demand at 1 to 1 per cent, with an abundance late in the day. There has been a very thin attendance in tho stock markets to-day, and lot little business is reported to have been transacted. In most markets the tone has been dull.
Home Government funds are again -f lower, hnt the principal weakness has been in tbo market for hom*o railway securities, Although it is expected that this week's traffic nill show some very satisfactory increases, the results of the southern companies have been scarcely up to anticipation. The Brighton Company shows an increase of 0,700, and the South-Eastern Com pany of .7,671. Brighton deferred is lower, closing at 121, and South-Eastem deferred has fallen to 10C1, decline of i for the day. In the market for heavy stocks the fall has been from to 1. r.nd Scotch stocks show irregular movements, Caledonian being down, while North British is a strong market, tho price snowing an advance or j.
In the morning North British stock changed hands Ills, but the closing price is i below that figure. Hull and Barnsley stock is steady and inclined to firmness with a limited market. In the foreign department the tone has been firm, most international securities showing a small fractional advance. The Turkish loans secured on tho Egyptian Tribute arc I to up. Egyptian loans proper are better for Unified and preference, French ate a slight fraction higher.
Italian havo been carried up to Oof, and Spanish, after rising to 731, close at 73 to Portuguese have been dull at reaction after the recent rise. The market is not altogether comfortable, both from political and financial considerations, The strike demonstrations in Paris, witn tUBir undercurrent of political meaning, have so far had uo appreciable adverse effect on the market, and another circ*mstance to whichjittle attention has been paid, at alt events on this side of the Channel, is the alleged difliculties of tho Panama Canal Company in securing the where withal to go on with its work. In the American department the market haa boon steady throughout the day, but finally closed at a slight decline, New York coining in late in the afternoon with a few orders to sell, the fall ranging between and the weakest stocks being the Pacific oompiuies, with the exception of Central Pacific, which are slightly higher for the day. Erie are lower at 2si, and Milwaukee shares have declined to below 75. Tho Union Paciiic net earnings for June are returned as $1,004,217.
There has been a email ilecreaso in gross earnings with a considerable increase in working expenses, so that tho net results of tho show a decrease of $105,000. The Ontario earnings for the first week of August are returned 13 $11,700, an incroase of Mexican Central sad National bonds arc -steady, with a special inquiry for Mexican National A bonds. The Mexican Central traffic for the first week in August hows a take of an incrense of Grand Trunk of Canada stocks are lifeless ami i to 1 lower. In the market for Mexican iiailway securities there has been a slight iractional dcclmo on tew purchases from quarters believed to he veil informed and on the idea fiat to-morrows tratlic announcement will be a satisfactory one. In miscellaneous markets there has been a fair amount of business in brewery and Ilutchkiss shares, also in Hyderabad- Decora shares.
The latter, in tho morning, were ottered down to ti, but to-das meeting, confirming the adoption of tho report, has been followed by some enorgctio purchases, with the result that the price closed above the worst, the final quotation being Of, buyers. Guinness shares have improved to slightly aver 32, and there has been a littlo roily Allsonp shares, which, after remaining weak at improved at tho close to fractionally oyer U.
