Letters to the 231 of August have been received to-
day from Rio de Janeiro, but contain little of import•
ante, except that the exchange had risen to 271 d.
The Jornals de Conmercio have come to heed to the
13th of that month only. From them we make the fol-
lowing extracts:—

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
(From The
_Sue of Last Night.)
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were
12.000 bales, including 2,000 American, 1.000 Pernarcs
and Bahia, 500 Egyptians, and 500 Surat en specula-
tion. The market closed with much animation, and,
compared with last Fridays rates, prices of all descrip-
tions are fully 1. per lb. higher.
The sal( of railway shares to-day, at Messrs. Lamond
and Co.'s, w 'nt off with spirit. The principal rise was
in the East Indians, which have materially improved in
value. The following are a few of the principal sales

The Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty yesterday
afternoon, received contracts for 100,000 gallons of rum
for the navy, at a trifle below 2s. 2d. per gallon.
There has been a full amount of business done in the
Consol Market this morning. For the Account the cur-
rent price is 951 it, and fur Money the range taken has
been from 94+ to 95*. The Government brokers
bought but sparingly. The premium on Exchequer-
bills has just advanced from 14s. to 17s. Bank Stock
has receded from 2061 to 205 k.
Spanish Stock is dull of sale; the Three per Certs. at
374, and the Actives at 2611. Mexican Bonds have been
done only at 231 and 4, the Grenada Stock at 211, and
the Dutch Two-and-a-Halt per Cents. at 581.
A very quiet market has ruled fur Railway Shares
and Sea ip.
We have just been favoured with the following im-
portant latter relative to Mexican Bond.
" Sussex-place, Regent's Para, Oct. 16, 1846.
" Sir,—An extract ola certain document, in reference
to the late conversion of Mexican Bonds, having been
published in this day's Tithes, accompanied by a letter
signed by B. Gomez Farias,' I beg to state that I
shall forthwith prepare a communication which shall,
with the least possible delay, be transmitted
to the committee, for the information of the
bondholders, and which, I doubt not, will place matters
in their true light, and give full satisfaction.
" I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
(Signed) " THOMAS MURPHY.
" To G. R. Robinson, Esq., Chairman of the Committee
of the South American Bondholders."
