The sales of Cotton at Liverpool were rstimatcd at
3,000 bales, a which 330 were takcn for expot t. The
market closed heavily, at about id. per lb. whence on
Friday's rates, t 'wept for Ezypt:anr, which were un-
chaegtd.—The Share Market was firm, and price 3 were
advancing.

The sales of grai❑ in the markets which regulate the
duties, comp: iced last week 103,850 quarters of wheat,
and 6208 quar:ers of barley.
A statement of the commerce of Belgium for the first
eight months cf the present year shows a great increase
in the imports of raw sugar, and a decrease in coffee
and :tobacco. Complaints are made that the French
Customs authorities were seizing, on the northern fron-
tier, certain descriptions of textile fabrics, which have
always hitherto been allowed to be imported, and the
reason supposed is that the " marks" were not according
to law. This, however, is not officially stated.
From Trieste there are unfavourable reports concern-
ing the first crcp in the Morea and the islands, the cur-
rants having suffered greatly by the heavy rains. There
had been a large quantity of fruit destroyeo, and not
above 45,000,0004>5. of currants would be good.
In _the Amsterdam Stock Market, on the 24th inst.,
very little was doing in Dutch Two-and-a-Half per
Cents., which were 57 1-16 to Spanish Bonds were
more freely brought to market.

At the 11-meting to-day of South Sea House Proprie-
tors, a committee of bye-laws was appointed, and a state-
ment of accounts was submitted, which showed a balance
due from the company of 4,500/.
The English Stock Market has been rather depressed,
sales haling been made for transfer, but at the period
of our writing, a rally is perceptible. Consols have
been 961 I for Transfer, and 96i for Account. There
has beeu very little time business doing. Exchtqw
bills have teen marked 633. to 665., and India Bonds
83s. premium. India Stock is at 268.

Communications of no small importance have been
sent by the Meiican Government to the Committee of
Bondholders, and it is to bo regretted that they should
tell:so much against a firm that has for years been pre-
sumed to be of extreme punctuality, and alive to the in-
terests of the foreign creditors for whom it acted as
agents. There can be no doubt, however, that Messrs.
Manning and Alickinfosh are fairly open to the censure
of the Government for so long detaining the 200,000
dollars arising from the tobacco duty collections, and
that these ought to have long since been in the Beak of
England. The ease is sufficiently cruel where the ne-
cessities of a country prevent the payment of a dividend
on its loans, but to have delays when the amount is in
hand, s*•ems intolerable. The sums obtained also for the
cotton licenses ought to have been remitted, and every
one here who hold Mexican stock feels in-
debted to the new Finance Minister M. Payne,
for his energetic proceedings in endeavouring to clear
up the cause of the delay, and failing satisfactory expla-
nations, at once ordering the collectors to pay the amount
of duties to the Academy of San Carlos for direct trans-
mission to the bondholders in England. Colonel Facie
will have the pleasing task of writing to Mexico that M.
I'ayuo has *on golden opinions here, and elevated the
national character, both by his admirable financial re-
ports and his activity, and great hopes are entertained
that he will apply himself to that great desideratum, the
revision of the tariff.

Mexican Bonds are firmer at 30* to 31; Peruvian
Four-and-Ualf per Cents, are 821. Equador have been
done at 31; Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. are
91. These hate been the only bargains in Foreign
Stocks, except a purchase of Brazilian Small at 921.
Spanish Three ter Cents, are nominally 38i 4.
Railway Shares are in moderate rcquebt, and at good
prices.
