VEMING, NOVEMBER 25,

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool had been firm. Sales.
4,500 bales. Ra,lway Shares had been steady, and
there was a fair business doing, holders being indisposed
to sell.

The sale of Railway Shares yesterday, by Messrs.
Lamond and Co., went off with spirit, and there was si,
good demand at prices showing a considerable advance
upon la:t week's quotations. The following are a few.
of the principal sales:—
Great Northern
Manchester, Buxton, and Matlock. ... 0 19 0
South Staffordshire
North Staffordshire
Lancashire and Yorkshire (West Riding
Union)
North British, Thirds
Shropshire Union and Canal 1 10 0
Reading, Guildford, and Reigate 6 19 0
Ambergate, Nottingham, and Boston 0 12 6
East Lancashire 2O 10 0
Boulogne and Amiens

A correspondence has been published which has taken
place between the Committee of the Mexican Bond-
holders and the Messrs. John Schnieder and Company,
the present agents of the Republic, relative to certain
bonds deposited in the Bank Of England, and as to the
payment of as much of the dividend as can be done
out of funds in hand, namely, about one-half.
In the first case the agents ere considered to have acted in
the right, and are to copsei.t to the delivery of the bonds
(which represent 470,6100 to the parties named in the
dispatches from the Mexican Government, as perchance
they may be thrown into circulation. The creditors of
Mexico do not think, however, that the agents,
Messrs. Schneider and Co., are acting right in
withholding the moiety of a dividend out
of funds acknewlodged to be in hand here, and at their
command, upon the principle, we presume, that "half
a loaf is better than no bread." The correspondence is
too lengthy to be fully analyzed under this head.
A morning Contemporary reports, though indirectly
rather, that there is some shadow of truth in the
statement first published by it, that the East
India Company has applied to the Bank of
England for a large loan of money to aid the treasury
of the former. The writer wishes an authorised con-
tradiction to this assertion. This could easily be given.
We contradicted it from the very best authority, but if
the East India Company, or any other influential body,
were to be called upon to contradict every stock-jobbing
report, of a verity the directors would have a hard task
indeed. The assertion is, as before stated, wholly de-
void of foundation. Let our Contemporary give his
affirmative authority, as in duty bound to do, for the
bold assertion.
This is the settling (ley in the Consol Market,
and a scene of gre:t confusion is there in conse-
querce in the Stock Exchange. Early two failures
e ere announced—Messrs. Whitmore and Son, and
Messrs. Secretan and Capper. The parties were ♦ery
large Bears. The account of the former has been
principally bought in. The fluctuations in Consols
have been frequent. The opening value for, this day
was tege from which a rise occurred to 861, and for
money to 867 The more current value for the month
of January is 851- 11, and for money 85 to 1154. Ex-
chequer.bills are 3s. to Is discount. The Three per
Cent. Reduced are at 837 !, and the Thri e-and-a-
Qearter per Cents. at 85i. Since the above was written
two defaulters have been declared, namely, Mr. Eykyn
and Mr. Abbott. Their differences are said not to be
large.
The only quotations in the Foreign Market have been
of Mexican at 16, iu Dutch Two-and a Half per Cents,
at 54k, and in the Four per Cents., certificates, at 831.
The Railway Share Market has been but little at-
tended to, the settlement in the Consol Market attracting
a most undivided interest and attention.
The weekly Court of the Directors of the Bank of
England has broken up without any notification being
issued that the rate of interest had been further redeced.
It certainly was very generally anticipated that this
course would have been adopted, and the Funds fell back
in cons( quence.
