MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS

CITY. TWO O'CLOCK.

There was a large busirres done in Cotton at Liver-
pool yesterday, and the market closed with an upward
tendency. American and Surat were about higher;
other sorts without alteration. The sales were estimated
at from 12,000 to 14,000 bales, of which 500 American
and 1,000 Surat were taken for export, and 1,500 Awe-

rican and 1,000 Surat on speculation. The sales com-
prised 8,000 American, 500 Penmen and Maranhato, at
51d. to 6id.; 900 Bahia, at 51d. to 6d.; 250 Egyptian,
chiefly at 51d.; 3,000 Surat, at ltd. to 3111, and 120
Sea bland, at is. 3d. to Is. 9d. per Ik—The Share
Market was firm, at rather higher prices.
The monthly statement of our foreign trade and ton-
nage, made up to the 10th October, show a slight falling
off compared with the correspondieg period of 1850, but
there is nothing out of the ordinary course. Our exports
have kept up as respects all the principal staples. Of
cotton, silk, and liuen manufactures we have sent
away more, and the decrease is upon woollens, me-
tals, fish, glass, and a few other items. The total ex-
ports for the month are 6,346,994/, being 87,8431. less
than to the same time in 1850. _ _

The imports of the nine months are worthy of notice,
chiefly as respects the following items :-

The snipping returns are satisfactory, the Inward
Entries being for the month 799,340 tont., of which
506,407 were vessels belonging to the United Kingdom
and its dependencies, against 768,975 and 500,714 tons
last year. The Outward Clearances are equally good,
and prove that our owners aro successfully competing
with foreign countries. The coasting trade falls off
owing to the facilities afforded by railways, and parti-
cularly does this appear in the new Coal movement.
The following, from the Circular of Messrs. Schi ceder
and Mummy, dated New Orleans, October 18, and pub-
lished by Mr. James Irvine of Liverpool, gives the state
of the Cotton Market there:—Our Circular of the 4th
October, closed upon a dull and drooping market, owinK
to the great stringency in the Exchange market and ad-
vancing freights, our quotations that day being 71 for
middling, id. freight to Liverpool, and s to lot per
cent. for sterling exchange. During the past fortnight
the same causes have continued to influence the busi-
ness to a great extent, and the first week closed with a
decline of about During this week, however, not-
withstanding the very rapid advance in freights, con-
siderable decline in exchange, and the increased diffi-
culty in negotiating, we have had a very active business,
resulting in sales of 34,800 bales, of which 22,000 bales
in the first three days,—a very large quantity for this
season of the year. The transactions of the last days,
no doubt, would have been more extensive, but the Jae-

tors' tables presented only a bare appearance, having
been pretty much swept by the previous heavy salv.
Tho market closes Low very firm, at our quotations; in

sumo instances, perhaps, somewhat hi ;tier rates have
been obtained. From the tables below, it will be .teen

that the freight to Liverpool is now 51, and the rate of
sterling 6 to 74 per cent. A large proportion of the
business done, was for (heat Britatu and France, and to
judge from the character of the recent operators, a
greater feeling of confidence SEEMS now to pervade the
market, which renders it very doubtful indeed whether
the market will go any lower for the next time to come.
The weather has been very favourable for securing the
crops, and the accounts from the bottom-lands continue
good. The quality of the cotton coming in now, seems
to commence falling off, and it is a general complaint,
that the larger proportion of cottons are very leery. The
finer grades continue very scarce. Good ordinary 64 to
65; middling 7 to 74; good middling 7/ to 74; middling
fair 75 to 74; fair 81. Sales during the fortnight,
60,900 bales. Receipts at this port, 141,211 bales,
against 70.384 bales last year. Increase of receipts at
all ports, 52,019 bales."
The mail with the West India and Mexican ad vices
has arrived, and brings a large sum in gold and silver.
The accounts generally are much of the same tenor as
previously. Te trade of Jamaica seems to be more
depressed than that of the other colonies.
Accounts from St. Lucia state that the sugar crop of
1851 had closed, and presented a better appearance than
was expected at the commencement of the season. The
year, when compared with those
exports of the present
of 1850, exhibited a surplus of about 1,100 hhds.
Judging from the state of the weather, it was thought
that next year will ba more fruitful still.
The shipments from Tobago showed a small increase
over last year in Sugar and Rum, and a slight decrease
in Molasses.
The crops of Trinidad were most favourable, there
being in Sugar an increase of 4,067 hhds 1,132 tierces
and 3,040 barrels over the exports in the
like period of 1850. The ensuing crop is likely
to exceed that of this year. and there was an up-
prehension that the price of sugar would advance on ac-
count of the extended cultivation and the demand for
labour. The decrease in the shipments of Molasses
was attributable to the increased consumption for the
manufacture of rum, and the quantity held back for
feeding purposes. The exports of rum have exceeded
those of last year by 528 puns. The cultivation of
coffee was declining rapidly on account of the unremune-
rating price.
The letters received by the Mexican Committee from
Mr. Falconnet state that M. Ramirez was named Minis.
ter of Home and Foreign Affairs, but that no Minister
of Finance was appointed. M. Olarto had made a
claim upon the dividends for moneys furnished or
expenses paid on account of Mr. W. P. Robertson's
mission, but Mr. Falconnet would resist this. The
claims of the Foreign Governments fur merchants and
others were to be submitted to private and judicial ar-
rangement. This does not affect the bondholders.
There appears to have been nothing yet obtained from
Manning and Mackintosh but promises. The amount
fur the dividends is rather over 20,000 dollars as ad-
vised, but Colonel Facie may have other alms.
