MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 6,000 bales, of which 500 American were taken
for export, and 500 Surat on speculation. The market
closed firmly. The sales comprised 4,000 American,
400 Pernam and Maraham at &id. to 64d., 100 Bahia at
std. to 6d., 200 Egyptian at s.id. to 9d., 1,000 Surat at
24d. to 3.1 d., and 80 Sea Island at ls. 3d. to ls. 10d.
per lb.-1n Railway Shares a good business was done at
higher prices.
The great buoyancy shown at the recent Colonial
Wool saes, owing to the Kafir war and the Australian
gold discoveries, invests with considerable importance the
consideration of the future prospects of the trade. It is
stated that the large quantity of Colonial Wool, now
using in Bradford, to the partial exclusion of English,
notwithstanding that many of the mills are running short
time, has, no doubt, been the cause of the advance in
combing wools, whilst the continued flat accounts re-
ceived from Leeds, &c., during the sales, the small pur-
chases for foreign account, and the large proportion of
fine and middling clothing wools brought on, have no
doubt operated against a rise in these descriptions. It
must here be recollected that Sydney Wools, in August,
brought higher proportionate rates than from other
ports; prices have, however, been sufficiently tempting
to induce importers to bring forward nearly
:he whole of their stocks, and the sales ot
this year's import, excluding Wools of 1850
sold in February last, have comprised very nearly a
quantity equal to the total import of the
ear; the total sales of this year amounting to the
large quantity of 169 296 bales. Presuming that in
August, and the present sales, about 1,500 to 2,000
bales of second-hand Wools, have been brought for
ward, we cannot reckon the quantity now in first
hands at much over 2,000 bales, almost entirely Port
Philip.
The Committee of Buenos Ayres Bondholders
have received the following communication from Mr,
Southern, her Msjesty's Minister Plenipotentiary to
the Argentine Cuutederatiou, and the letter having been
directed to the chairman, at his residence in Scotland,
it could not have been published sooner:—
" Buenos Ayres, 30th Sept., 1851,
" Sir,—l have the honour to acknowledge the receipt
of your letter, and a duplicate of it, dated the 2d of
June, in which you communicate to be a copy of the
resolutions passed by the meeting of the Bondholders of
Buenos Ayrean Stock, held in London, on the 22d of
may, in which is contained a vote of thanks to me for
my exertions in favour of the bondholders. I beg to
assure you that I feel extremely grateful for this ac-
knowledgment on the pat t of the meeting of the efforts
which I have, under the direction of Lord Palmerston,
made to forward the settlement of the claims of the
bondholders.

" The bondholders may rely that I shall not let any
opportunity pass unimproved, and that I shall continue
to use every exertion to bring about a favourable con-
sideration of their most just claims on the part of this
Government, which I have the greatest satisfaction in
stating, appears animated by the beet desires to come
to a satisfactory arrangement, as soon as circumstances
will permit it to do so."
The Overland letters, by the express, vid Marseilles,
does not e,_.nfirm the telegraph report. Trade at Cal-
cutta was very depressed, more native failures had oc-
curred, and there was a glut of imports with increasing
arrivals. It is only at Bombay that the market was
brisker.

The American accounts, per Niagara, will be fa-
vourable if they correspond to the telegraph outline.
The Stock Market is advancing still, and the jobbers
are indisposed to sell, unless at a decided rise. This,
while it checks business, causes every bargain to
" tell." Tho further large arrival of specie from
America, the flattering accounts of the gold mines in
California, and the extraordinary details from Sydney,
all contribute to the buoyant feeling. Moreover
the impression of great abundance in the money
market is not ephemeral, since the London ILA
North- W estern 11,0,1 way Company have given
notice of an intention to apply to Parliament for leave
to issue preferential shares in redemption of leans, thus
saving a large amount, according to some, as much as
100,000/. per annum in interest. Consols have been

Foreign Stocks are looking up. The news from
Mexico as to the spread of the revolution in the northern
provinces is very discouraging, but the assertion that the
British Minister contemplated a blockade of the ports
is probably unfrue, as we know that the latest in-
formation from Mr. Falconnet to the committee, repro-
s,.ntecl the difficulty to have been amicably settled. The
Bonds are 241 to 24k. Spanish Five per Cents. have
been 20i to 2 attcl the Three per Coots., nominally,
39f to 40. The Passive about 5/ to j. Portuguese
Four per Cents. are 33f to 34. French Three per
Cents are 57.50 ; and Dutch Four per Cents, 90* to f.
Railway Shares are all up, but Midland take the
lead, a settlement of differences having, it is said, been
accomplished. They have touched 53. North Western
also are better, and Aberdeen, ailedonian, &c. have
risen. French shares are in great request.
—Owing to the news from New York of the great suc-
cess of the Gold quarts companies, prices are better here
for the shares of all the companies. Aqua Fria lf

SUICIDE FROM HUNGERFOED-BRIDGE.-011 Satur-
day afternoon, about five o'clock, a respectably attired young
man, apparently between 20 and 25 years of age, committed
himself from ungerford-
the officer on the bridge to
walk
towards the Middlesex side, but there was

withinidhl a few yards saw him on the ledge at the
the other side of the railings stooping down, but thinking
that he was pulling at a rope, the circumstance did not excite
his suspicion. In a few seconds after wards he threw himself
into the water. and the parties in a steam-boat which had
just pas,ed threw out a rope, hoping that he would et ttch it.
several small boats also towed out front the shore, but ere
they reached the spot he had disappeared. Men have been
since engaged dragging the river, but up to las evening the
efforts to recover the body had been unsuccessful.

GLASGOW UrIVSRSITY —ELECTION OF ORD
RECTOIL—GLAsoow, Nov. Is.—This appointment, which is
frequently the subject of great sti and excitement, passed
over quietly to day by the re election of Mr. Sheriff Alison,
the hiSt.riaUp to till the office for another year. A section
of the liberal students made au effort to ge . up a party for
Lord Paltneraton, but the more prudent mewibera of the
University gave it the quietus, both from the turmoil which
a contest would provoke and from the consideration that
his Lordship was not at thin time likely to be at all desirous
of the honour, which, if off, red, would infer the trouble of
