The Committee of the Mexican Bondholders have, by
he Clyde, received advices from Mr. Falconnet, dated
Mexico, the 3d ult., informing them that in conformity
with Article 1 of the Decree of the 14th of October last,
the Ministers of the Mexican Treasury had executed a
certificate or assignment in favour of the bondholders
for 2,500,000 f., payable out of the portion of the indem-
nity due from the United States in May, 1852. It is
framed so as also to serve as a receipt by the Mexican
Government to that of the United States for the pay-
ment of the money to any party duly appointed to re-
ceive it, by the chairman of the Committee of the
Mexican Bondholders. The certificate has been executed
in triple, the original Mr. Payne has been commissioned
to hand to the Committee, on his arrival here by the
next packet the duplicate ; her Majesty's Charge
d'Affaires in Mexico, Mr. Doyle, has sent to Lord
Palmerston, and the triplicate has been handed to Mr.
Falconnet, who has forwarded to the Committee a copy
of it. Mr. Falconnet speaks highly of the ready and
efficient aid which he has received from Mr. Doyle in the
course of this business.
Mr. Falconnet was communicating with the new
Minister of Finance, Mr. Esteva, on the instructions fur
Mr. Payno, who was to leave for London by the next
packet as commissioner of the Government, to carry out
the arrangement with the Bondholders here. Ile was
also occupied in endeavouring to obtain a more satisfac-
tory security for the future regular payment of the
interest,
No definite arrangement relative to the debt of
Messrs. Manning and Mackintosh had as yet been ar-
rived at, but Mr. Falconnet was using his best, efforts to
get it secured in some way.
The amount of bullion exported direct from London
this week is only 40,000 ox. in silver coin to Rotterdam.
From the manufacturing districts the accounts are of
much the same tenor as previously of late. A moderate
business was doing in woollens and cotton goods.

The Clyde brings 81,828 dollars 76 cents. to Colonel
Facio from the Custom-houses of Vera Cruz and Tam-
pico, on account of the accruing dividends, to which also
the remittances by the Feb. and March packets are to
be appropriated.

STATE OF TRADE.—MANCIIESTER, APRIL 17.
The same causes which operated to prevent business on
Tuesday are in operation to-day. Exporters made a good
deal of inquiry to test the market, but it resulted in a small
extent of business. Orders to a fair extent are understood
to be held by most of the buying agents,
but it is unlikely
they will execute them in the
present fluctuating state of
prices. Where business has been done it has been at a slight
advance on Tuesday's rates.
ROYAL THAMES YACHT CLUB,—Her Majesty has
been graciously pleased to present the above distinguished
club, which has for many years been honoured with her
patronage, with a very handsome silver cup for competition
this season; for which mark
of royal consideration and kind-
ness the club have testified their sense of the honour con-
ferred upon them. The race, which will form the third of
the forthcoming season amongst H. T. T. L. yachts, is ap-
pointed to take place on the 17th of July, And will of C9IITIO,

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
Yesterday was a holiday in the cotton market a
Liverpool.

I)uring the present week there has been no marked
desire to speculate in the principal articles of consump-
tion; but a larger quantity has been taken for present
wants. No one seems inclined to hold a stock, and a
good many prefer waiting to see what the Exhibition
will do for them. That an influx of foreigners must
substantially affect the aggregate use of sugar, coffee,
&c., in the United Kingdom, during the ensuing months,
no one can dispute, but the supplies now are so steady,
and capable of being drawn from so many different parts
of the world, that there is scarcely any temptation to
speculate, and none to hold on. Importers are
much more anxious to sell upon arrival, and
obtain anew the command of their capital
for other purposes. The public at largo benefits,
and with cheaper food they have the advantage of a
larger supply. The activity i❑ the Coffee market has
arisen from the new duty coming into operation. Sugar
has been more in favour, and it is hoped refining in
bond will be permitted to our home manufacturers, who
suffer at present most severely from the restrictions
placed upon them. Tallow has not varied particularly,
and Tea has been steady for the lower qualities. Cotton
has been depressed.

The Bank of England weekly return is to the I2st inst.
The bullion, as was expected, shows again a large re-
duction, and as compared with the previous week the
results are:—
