MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were, esti-
mated at 7,000 bales, with a firm market, and priers
tending upwards. American and Surat were per lb.
higher than on Friday last. Other kinds without alte-
ration.—ln Railway Shares a largo business was done,
and prices of all kinds of Stock were higher.

Tlio sales in the Produce Markets h;,vo been to a fair
extent, but exclusively for consumption. More East
India Sugar has been taken at a slight concession in
prices. Coff,e has been steady. Rum rather quieter,
and also Cotton and Tta. Tallow and Saltpetre wanted.
Tuo intelligence in the last American papers, dated
Mexico, the 16th ult., to the tact that the British Mi-
nister in Mexico had demanded a final answer to Lord
Palmerston's dispatches, and that it was reported that
unless the answer Ras satirfactory, all the Mexican ports
would be blockaded, appears to be quite unfounded, be-
cause, according to the subjoined copy of Mr. Falcon-
net's letter to the Committee of Mexican Bondholders,
of the 6th ult., the substance of which was published on
the 12th instant, the only matter in dispute between the
two countries had been settled.

" Mexico, Oct. 6, 1851.
" Sir,—Referring to my respects of the 4th instant, I
avail myself of the departure of an extra express, which
is to leave Mexico this morning, to inform you that tho
Congress have come to a decision to authorise the Go-
vernment to make arrangements with the different Fo-
reign Ministers for a settlement of the claims which they
represent, either based upon diplomatic conventions, Li-
sanctioned by decisions of the judicial tribunals here.
This, therefore, gots rid of ono of the difficulties which
stood in the way of the Government.
" Tho means for the settlement alluded to are to bo
provided out of that portion of the Custom-house revenue
which is yet unappropriated.
" In regard to the other claims which are not of
either of the above denominationm, the Senate has for
the present refused to give their sanction to the settle-
ment for which the Administration had applied.
" I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your very obediaut servant,
(Signed) " F. DE P. FALCONNET.
"Baron J. L. de Goldsmid, Chairman of the

Committee of Mexican Bondholders."
The Hamburgh mail brings the rate of exchange on
London last Tuesday at 13 6, being the same as pre-
viously. Bills were offering. Coffee and Wheat were firm.
At Amsterdam on the 19th inst. there was no parti-
cular change in Dutch Stock. Spanish and Mexican
were slightly lower.
There is a rumour that the increase in the gold held
by the Bank of England, as will appear by the weekly
statement in this evening's Gazette, will be 432,000/.
We merely give this as an on dit.
The Stock Market has been a little weaker, owing to
the increased supply for Transfer. There is, however,
nothing against the Funds, and the reported intention of
the directors to lend money on them at 21 instead of
3 per cent, confirmed yesterday afternoon, is favour-
able to the maintenance of prices, although the
positive advantage is small considering that any one
could go into Lombard-street and get loans at that
charge, or even 2i on Console. We shall see ere the
Transfer books close whether discounts likewise will
be reduced. The Paris Bourse was not quite so high
yesterday. Consols realise 984 for Transfer, and 98-1-, to
99 for Account. The New Three-:end- a-Quarter per Cents.
have been quoted 99a to and the Three per Cents.
98 to I. Bank Stock has risen to 215 and 2151. Ex-
chequer-bills are 525. to 555., and India Bonds 603. to
635. premium.
Foreign Securities are generally very firm. Mexican
must again be excepted, however, being at 23-a to a.
Brazilian Old Stock has risen to 93f and 94. Spanish
Five per Cents. have been 214, but are now 20i to 21,
and the Three per Cents. 394 to 404. Dutch 2wo .and-
a-Halt per Cents. bring 5.94, and Russian Four-and-a-
Half per Cents. 1034 to 1.
Railway Shares have been at fuller prices again, and
with a geod deal doing in them. Aberdeen have been
in request, and North-Western, Lancashire and York-
shire, South-Eastern, Great Northern, and Chester
and Holyhead have attracted attention. East Anglian
are scarcely so good, or Eastern Counties. Foreign
Shares are steady.
Gold Mine Shares are quoted 11 to 11 premium for
Agua Fria; Ito premium for Nouveau Monde; and
par to premium for Ave Maria and West Mariposa.
The Agua Fria, and other companies not licensed,
through Mr. Hoffman, state that they hold their leases
direct from Colonel Freemont, and in the case of the
Agua the property is actually located.

THE UNIVERSITY OP DEBLIN.—By the demise of
the King of Hanover, the
.Chancellorship of this Institution
becomes vacant.
The post is an honorary one, of course,
and, like those of Oxford and Cambridge, usually holden by
some eminent
personage. The Duke of Wellington is Chan-
cellor of Oxford, and the prince Consort of Cambridge.
Perhaps Trinity College, Dublin, could not find a more ap-
propriate successor to the late King than the Earl of Rosse,
although that clistingtished nobleman was not educate t at
the institution in question. The Earl of Rosse is a Graduate
of Magdalen College, Oxford, where he was first class in
mathematics in Iti22.—Advertiser.

DEATH OF A WELL-liiNOWN CIIARACTELI.—SUCh
of our readers who have been in the habit of crossing
Waterloo-bridge must have observed an old man, named
Austin, who for about thirty years kept the " Happy
Family," close to the gate on the Surrey side. About a
week ago the poor old man, who is said to have been the
originator of this class of itinerant menageries, was taken so
ill as to be unable to leave his bed, and he expired on Wed-
nesday last.
