MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 7,000 bales, of which 800 Surat were taken for
export, and 500 American on speculation. The market
closed very firm.—ln Railway Shares a good business
was done at higher rates.
The market for colonial and foreign produce has been
very firm, and there have been increased transactions in
some articles. Sugar has been in most request, but
Coffee, likewise, has been in favour. Indigo has been in
good demand to•day, Guatemala at 3s. 10d. to 4s. I Id.
per lb., being extreme rates to Id. per lb. advance. Iu
Cotton not much has been done, but holders are firm.
The Patriota of ,Oajaca learns with great satisfaction
from a resident of the parish Guichicovi that the
American commission appointed to survey the route
between the two seas had commenced its arduous
labours. The Patriota says:—lt appears indubitable
that this desirable work will be carried to a favourable
termination. for the Director, M. Pierre Edouard
Trastour, after having, on his arrival, conducted him-
self in the most gentlemanly manner, has realized in
his proceedings the high opinion which was formed of
his theoretical knowledge. He has been seen making
the most dangerous reconnoissances, venturing even into
the Pacific with his little vessel; and thus surmount-
ing the obstacles which were first offered to the first
enterprise. _

A more vigorous administration of the Government of
Mexico is reasonably to be expected from the tenor of
the recent advices, and the election of General Arista
will go far to secure this. Four highway robbers, con-
demned to death on the 9.0114 of last April, were exe-
cuted at Queretaro on the 17th and 19th of October.
Juan Granja has obtained from Congress the privilege
of establishing au electric telegraph between Vera Cruz
and the city of Mexico. One of the instruments has ar-
rived, and an experiment was to be made with it at the
National Palace. There is a proposition at present
pending to light the capitol by means of an electric light
of great brilliancy. A grand mass, in gratitude tor the
disappearance of the cholera, was celebrated at the grand
Cathedral at Puebla.

The edvices by the West India Mail are not
satisfac-
tory, the dreadful ravages of the cholera having impeded
basiness. The large amount of specie brought by the
steamer, over 2,000,000 dollars, will be very acceptable
just now.
The English Funds have been buoyant again, but
there bus been less business doing, as the transfer books
are now closed for the principal stock. Consols ex-
dividend and for the opening have been 97 to equal to
98k a. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per tents. have
been 99i to and the Three per Cents. 97,i Bank
Stock is supported at 213 to 2131. Exchequer-bills
have been 675. premium, and firm.
In the Foreign Market an extensive business has been
done in Mexican Stock, and prices have further ad-
vanced, being 36 to 37. This has led to the failure of a
party who had been speculating for a fall. Peruvian
Bonds have been marked 8011,, to ';3, for the Four-and-a-
Half per Cents.; Equador, 31; and Buenos Ayres, 53.
Portuguese Four per Cents. havo been quoted 344.
Russian Four-and at-rialf per Cents. are 97i ; and
Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 58k, being a very de-
cided advance on the latter.
The Railway Market is much tamer, and the im-
portant rise of yesterday has brought forward sellers to
realise profits. North-Western have receded 11. to 21.,
South-Western, after being higher, have gone back a
little, Aberdeen are buoyant. A fair business has been
done in the general run of the other lines.
