MONEY and UOMM.EitCIAL NEWS.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The salmi of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 10,000 hales, of which 1,500 American, and
500 Surat, were taken for export, and 1000 American
on speculation. The market closed with an upward ten-
dency, and American 1-16 d. per lb. dearer.—The Share-

marlZe4 continued dull, at lower prices.
The mail brought adviceti from Mr. Lord, the agent of
the Venezuela bondholders, respecting the now arrange-
ments for paying the interest on the debt, and it will be
satisfactory to the holders to find that the order is
given to the Bank of England to release the money in
hand, and leave it at the disposal of the commissioners

appointed here. The following is the communication

referred to:—

" Committee of Spanish American Bondholders.
" The committee received by the last packet two
letters from Mr. Lord, dated Le Guayra, the 10th and
the 26th of December. 1851. The former contains a
copy of the Finance Minister's letter to him, telling him
what he had written to the Bank of England to rectify
an irregularity which had taken place with regard to the
last remittance of 7,0001., and which is as follows:
*" Caracas, Dec. 3, 1851.
" Sir,—Under this day's date, lam writing to the
Governor and Directors of the Bank of England the fol-

lowing:—
" ` The Venezuelan Government having appointed in
London their cinsul, James Milligan, Esq., Baron do
Goldsmid, and John Distou Powles, Esq., as a provi-
sional commission for paying the dividends to the Vene-
zuelan bondholders, it is requisite to provide the said
commission with the necessary funds; you will, there-
fore, be pleased to hold at the disposal of those gentle-
men the MUDS which have been remitted by this depart-
ment since the last year of 1851 to your establishment.
" I have the honour to remain, &c.,

" To. H. J. Lord, Esq.' "' C. GELLINEAtr.
" Mr. Lord's last letter informs the committee of his
having received theirs of the 15th of November, with the
information of the bondholders having in their public'
meeting of the 6th of November accepted the agreement
concluded by Mr. Lord with the Executive Power et
Venezuela for the settlement of four years' arrears of in-
terest, and of having also received at the same time an
attested copy of the resolutions passed unanimously at the
said meeting. These resolutions Mr. Lord had at once
transmitted to the Venezuelan Government, together with
a long letter of his, of which ho has sent a copy to the
committee, and in which he explains in the strongest
and clearest terms the great expediency and necessity
for Congress to confirm the said agreement in their en-
suing session without the least delay.
" JNIr. Lord takes the opportunity to press the Govern-
ment again most urgently for immediate remittances, to
complete the last October dividend, and to provide for
that of next April."
At the meeting to be held at Amsterdam on the 26th
instant (edjournee from the 20th June last), the direc
tors of the Dutch Rhenish Railway Company " will
submit a draft of agreement proposed by Government'
to carry out the stipulations contained in the treaty
with Prussia, respecting the junction of the Dutch
Rhenish Railway with the lines of the kingdom."
The Committee of Mexican Bondholders have re-
ceived, through the medium of Messrs. Baring Brothers
and Co., a letter;from Mr. Falconnet, dated Mexico, 17th
December, of which the following is an extract:—
" I am happy to he able to advise that I have suc-
ceeded in bringing to a favourable termination the ar-
rangement to which I alluded in my last as then in con-
templation between me and this Government, to provide
the requisite funds for the payment of the January dill-
dend. By the agreement into which I have entered on
behalf of the bondholders, and M. Esparza on behalf e
his Government, it is arranged that 800,000 dollars shall
go forward to London from the various ports of the Re
public, to the consignment of Messrs. Baring Brothers'
and Co., and I shall start from this almost immediately
for London, vid United States, to arrange with Messrt
Baring, according to the terms of the agreement wits
this Government."
Mr. Falconnet also states that a meeting of the credi-
tors of Messrs. Manning and Mackintosh its about to be
called, in consequence of proceedings on the part of cer-
tain of the creditors.
The accounts from the French and other princiPsi
Stock Markets of the Continent notice continued heaps'
ness in prices. The remainder of the Belgian Loan re"
fused by the Societe Geasca.le has boon taken by
Rothschilds and Messrs. Bischoffsheim. It is cslce-
lated that the Belgian Government will actually receive'
about 96 per cent. Messrs.
