LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 31, 1849

which several foreign ships stand out. At Salonica
the firman has been read which constitutes iliza
PAC ire Governor-General of that province. Nearly
all the consuls have already paid him official visits.
Great complaints are made respecting the mode in
which the Pacha of LARISSA. and Usminn transacts
business. The harbour of Samoshar has been
blockaded by three brigs, two galliots, and two
steamers, under the command of Admiral hlusrAr
PAcuA. According to the latest account, tranquillity
had been restored in that island.

Count STURMER, the Austrian Ambassador, re-
ceived dispatches on the sth, in consequence of which
negotiations took place with the Porte, relative to the
refugees at Widdin.
The late military reviews at Zeitin Burun have
given the English Ambassador, Sir STRATFORD
CANNING, and the French Minister, General AuricK,
an opportunity of complimenting the SULTAN on the
admirable bearing of his army, which the SULTAN
did not fail to communicate to the generals, especially
_ . _ _

the Grand Seraskier, MAUoMET.
ALI PACH4 has received from the SULTAN, as a
reward fur his military services, a magnificent sabre,
the ht of which is of massive gold studded with
brilliants.
On the eve of the 9th there was a splendid ball at
the British Ambassador's at Therapia.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 9,000 bales, including 3,000 on speculation and
750 for export. The demand was moderate, and prices
were firm.—Railway Shares were firm, "and generally
higher prices were obtained.
The cessation of business yesterday in the Colonial
markets has caused un additional number of sales to-day
in Mincing-lane.
The Corn Market is dull.
Nuw that the bustle and excitement of yesterday's
inauguration of the Coal Exchange are over,
people generally, express their opinion of the
result of the proceedings, find this is almost univer-
sally favourable. With their accustomed liberality,
the merchants occupying premises which commanded
a view of the procession aflorded accommodation to
their numerous frienc:s, and Me.serie Nicholson and
Co., at great expense and trouble, converted their
extensive wharf premises into reception rooms,
and entertained from 200 to 300 persons at an elegant
dejeuner. It was also, we understand, at the express
command of her Mejesty that the Hon. Artillery Com-
pany attended us the guard of honour.
The advises from the Continent state that at Amster-
dam the Ministerial crisis was over. The published list
includes M. Van Bosse as Minister of Finance, and M.
Yen Goldstein, President of the Second Chamber.
Dutch Twon and-a-Halt per Cents. were rather heavy at
53 1-16 to if. At the Vienna Bourse, on the 25th
inst., Austrian Bands realised 941. The exchange on
London was 10 46.
It is stated in accounts from Russia, and the fact de-
serves aVention after all the boasting of plethoric riches,
that the Government had commenced the issue of Trea-
sury bills at 4 22-100ths per cent. interest, to the
amount of 21,000,000 roubles, in order to defray the
expenses of the late campaign.
The information obtained from the new financial repre-
sentative of Mexico in England, Col. Facie, appears to be
very satisfactory. It is true that:there is no hope held out
that the republic will be inclined to give additional
security, and mike greater exertions for the payment
of the interest on the debt, unless upon the understand-
ing that some concession be made by the creditors, and
alter the experience of the result of some previous
compromises, the latter will naturally be
very cautious how they act. At the same
time, Colonel Facio admits the great resources of his
country which peace alone is required to develop, and it
is conceived that a monthly remittance of 100,000 dollars,
or equivalent thereto, if forwarded at longer intervals,
may be fully relied on. The tobacco contract will re-
quire looking after, and the silver duties ought to pro-
duce a good sum. We do not know what the Committee
may be doing in these mattere, but a movement is
getting up among the bondholders, and a me-
morial is in course of signature, that will no doubt
have great weight in Mexico, if numerously signed,
as it is expected to be.
The Funds are lower this morning by about per
cent. in consequence of the fall in the Rentes at Paris,
where the :unsetled state of the Ministry is made a
handle to depress prices. Consols have been 928 to
938, and are now 924 a for Money, and 92-1- to 93 for
Account. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per &Cents.
have been 92-8- to 928. Bank Stock is worth 19S1.
Exchequer-bills have been 425. to 455., and India Bonds
80s. premium.
The Stock Exchange will be closed to-morrow, as
usual on the Ist November.
The Foreign Securities have been influenced partly
by the settlement of the account. Spanish Five per
Cents. have been 178 to it, and the Three per Cents. 344
to 3511. This is a decided rally compared with the
prices current a few days since, because the position of
Narvaez, now he has returned to the Ministry, is cont
dered firmer than ever, and in such a country as Spain,
incapable of appreciating the blessings of constitutional
government, strength is far more prized than liberality.
Portuguese Four per Cents. have been steady at 338;
Brazil Bonds have been done at 524; Buenos Ayres at
40k; and Chilian at 95. Mexican Bonds have been
quoted 261-, Begian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. are
88; and Dutch Four per Cents. 828.
Railroad Shares are steadily rising still. Great
Western hare touched 60; Caledonian, 141; North-
Western, 116; Midland, 4811; South-Eastern, 18i; and
York and Berwick, 188.

FIRE IN HoLnouri.—Last evening a fire, by which
two persons were seriously injured, occurred upon the
premises in the occupancy of Mr. Alfred Hill, dentist,
King-street, Holborn. The flames commenced in the
workshop at the rear of the private residence, from, it
was stated, the upsetting of a naptha lamp. The par-
ties in the building, a gentleman and a lad, in their
anxiety to get the fire subdued, were severely burned,
more especially the youth, who was obliged to be re-
moved to the hospital. The engines of the London
Brigsde and West of England Company were soon on
the spot; and owing to the exertionti of the firemen, the
flames were eventually extinguished, but not until the
premises in which the outbreak commenced were en-
tirely destroyed, but fortunately the front priming re-
ceived not the least injury.
