Accounts from Leghorn state that two individuals
were shot there on the 30th ult., in pursuance of the
sentence of an Austrian court-martial.
Letters from Florence of the Ist, in the Genoa
Gazette, state that the communal elections of that
city have failed ffom the abstention of electors. A
new election will consequently take place within a
fortnight of that date.
Letters from Rome, in the Risorgimento of Turin,
state that the old regulations concerning the Israelites
have been revived :—viz., that they cannot travel
within the Roman States without a permission from
the Inquisition, nor stop in any place without a new
permission.
The Roman Government has guaranteed six per
cent. upon the capital of 20 millions of Roman scudi
(12.0 millions of francs) for the Rome and Ancona
Railway. The line which is to connect Tuscany with
Bologna and the Lombardo Venetian provinces is also
to be commenced without delay.

CLOSE or
to the Public on
THE EXHIBITION.—A notice bee been
posted at the doors of the Great Exhibition building in
Hyde-park, stating that the Exhibition will positively close
at nine o'clock on that day, instead of twelve, as hitherto on
Saturdays, and Saturday next, that the doors will be opened
that on that occasion no wheel chairs will be
permitted to enter the building. This last regulation was,
no doubt, nece.ssary, in consequence of the large number of
visitors who may 'be expected on the closing day, and in
order to prevent inccnvenience to the general public.

STATE OF TRADE, MANCHESTER, OCT. 7.—Our

CITY. TWO O'CLOCK. _

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 8,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were
taken for export, and 1,000 American and 750 Surat on
speculation. The market closed tamely. The sales
comprised 6,000 American, 1,000 Egyptian, chiefly at
64d., and 1,000 Surat at 24d. to 4d. per lb.—The Share
Market was steady, and prices generally well supported.
The Produce Markets have opened this week rather
heavily agai❑ for Sugar, but Coffee and Rice have been
in improved demand. Messrs. Wilkinson and Jewesbury
give the following report:—
" The quarterly sales of Indigo commenced yester-
day, consisting of 21,389 chests (including 8,586
chests of old goods, bought in at, or withdrawn from,
former sales, and 1,415 chests on second hand), com-
prising the following, viz.:—Catalogue A, 13,346
chests of Bengal, Oude, 1,216 Madras, 1,047
Kurpah, 6 Bimlapatams, 23 Salem, 245 Calcutta.
Fig. 48 Madras, 4,026 not printed and withdrawn up to
the time of sale, and the rest in second hands. The
qualities of Bengal are about two-thirds good and fine,
and one-third middling and ordinary; the Madras,
mostly ordinary, with a very small proportion of good
and fine ; the Kurpah one-third good and fine,
and two-thirds middling and ordinary ; the
Bimlapatam and Salem good middling ; the
Oude ordinary. The room presented a very full
attendance, but there were but few of the home
trade present. After the announcement of 313 chests
withdrawn, in addition to those before advertised, the
sale opened with a parcel of fine Bengal, of the mark
J. and R. W., withdrawn from the July sale, to which
strong support was given, but without producing the
desired effect; a small parcel of Kurpahs which followed
was taken out after trying a few lots at high rates; sub-
sequently, where there was more disposition to sell,
some competition took place, and a fair quantity was
sold. The rates ruled for fine Bengal, last sale's prices;
consuming sorts about 2d. per lb. lower. Kurpah par to
4d. per lb. higher for good and fine, and par to 2d. per
lb lower for middling and ordinary. 33 chests Madras
in to-day's sale were withdrawn, the rates required being
above their value. 1,159 chests have passed to day, of
which 384 were withdrawn."

The steamer Clyde has arrived with the West Indian
and Mexican mails. Jamaica was healthy again, :gene-
rally speaking. Trade was dull, but the weather was
favourable. An alteration of the "injuriously heavy
tonnage dues" was being brought on the tapis by in-
fluential parties in the island. The Coffee crop in Hayti
would be very large.

From Mexico there is a remittance of about 41,000
dollars for the dividends, but in other respects no favour-
able information.
The committee of Mexican bondholders have received
advices by the Clyde from Mr. Falconnet, dated Mexico,
the 3d ult. He had obtained Messrs. Manning and
Mackintosh's acceptances, due at various dates up to
January, 1853, for the balance due by them to the bond.
holders, about 250,000 dollars, and had been promised
securities to that amount, as soon as Messrs. Manning
and Mackintosh should be able to bring them into a tan-
gible shape. The Governors of the Federal States,
who had been called together to meet in Mexico, had
not come forward to assist the President's Government,
and all his Ministers had, in consequence, resigned. Mr.
Ramiroz, said to be a man of talent and integrity, has
been named Minister of Home and Foreign Affairs, and
charged with the formation of a new Cabinet. The
Ministry of Finance had been offered to Mr. Estava, but
it was not known whether ho hed accepted.
There waa tolerable steadineFs yesterday afternoon in
the rates at which Bills of Exchange were negotiated on
the principal continental cities. Ninety days' paper was
taken at 12.15 to 18 on Trieste, being higher; but Paris
was the turn lower, viz., 2545 to 4M. Antwerp was
quoted 25,471 to 50; Amsterdam, 12.04 to 12.0,; Ham-
burgh, 13.10 to 4; Frankfort, 120,i to 1; anu Trieste,
12.10 to 12.12.

The English Stock Market has been rather flatter,
and there is less business doing. Consols have been 96'.1
to 97 for Transfer, and 96i to 97 for Account. The pre-
mium on Exchequer-bills has been supported at 465.,
and on India Bonds has been 51s. to 522. East India
Stock has been steady at 262. The dividends will be
paid next Tuesday on Now Three-and-a Quarter per
Cents., Szc.

Foreign investments have been heavier. Spanish
Five per Cents- have been nominally 201 to 21 ; the
Three per Cents. 3.74 to 384; and the Passive 53
Mexican Stock, after being 27 buyers, has dropped to
264 If; Sardinian Scrip has been discount; Russian
Four-and-a• Half per Cents. have been at 101 f; Danish
Three per Cents. at 78i; and Dutch Two-and-a-Half
per Cents. at 59,i. Venezuela Stock has been marked
29i to 30i.

Railway Shares have been in favour again as regards
the extent of business done, but they have not rallied to
the highest point of the present week.
