Satisfaction is expressed at the quietude with which the arrangements for the formation of a new and stronger administration are being carried on. Con sols rose to-day to 1001, and closed firmly at 1001 to l ex div., for the opening of the 18th January. Tbplationtl Debt Commissioners' broker re-appeared as Viarebuse of Reduced Threes, and the price of VB. stock ascended to 1015. Purchases of Each,- veer Bills by the government broker also assisted to strengthen public securities. The official report of business includes :—Three per Cent. Consols, for the opeaing, 1 0 01, 1 , lex div. Three per Cent. Reduced, 1011, Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 1041, /. Long Annuities, 1860, 61, South Sea Old ;. Annuities, 1011. Bank Stock, 223 f. The purchases of Exchequer Bills above referred to were confined to the March issue, the price of which consequently rose 35., closing 645. to 675. prem. India Bonds were also better at 78s. to 82s. prem. Foreign stocks are very lightly operated in, and the market is devoid of any feature of striking no- velty. Mexican Bonds and Turkish scrip are fiat, and Russian stocks in demand. Peruvian Deferred closed more firmly. Bargains are recorded u fol lows:—Buenos Ayres Six per Cents., 74.

One of the most interesting features of the day consisted in the issue of a memorandum addressed by the directors of the Australian Agricultural Com pany to their shareholders. It is considered u studious] y but laudably sober in tone, and has produced a very favourable impression from its being unaccompanied by any inflated comments, although at the same time confirmatory of the extra ordinary anticipations indulged in. Some objection is taken by parties interested to the low nominal value at which the Peel River district is fixed in the proposed transfer of this tract of land to a new com pany, but it may be urged is answer that as it is merely a transfer to the proprietors themselves, the nominal amount is of secondary importance. It is stated, moreover, that the 'directors simply wished, in virtue of theif charter, to fix an agricultural value to the district in question, leaving the additional value that may arise from its gold deposits to be determined by the shareholders themselves. As regards intelligibility, however, it dess not appear that the directors' statement is quite so deserving :of approbation. The operation pro posed to be effected is in fact as follows :—The capi tal of the projected "Peel River Land and Mineral Company " is to be 600,0001., in 120,000 shares, of 51. each. Of this number, 100,000 shares (represent ing half a million sterling of capital) will be distri buted to the shareholders at the rate of 10 shares for every 1001. share held,the shareholders paying no con sideration foe these, but receiving them, in reality, as the proceeds of the sale of their own property. As the shares of the Agricultural Association are 10,000 in number, this arrangement w:11 of course absorb 100,000 shares in the Peel River Company. The re maining 20,000 shares will be allotted to the shareholders In preference, and on these the payment of 51, per share must be made, by which a working capital of 100,0001. will be raised. As the new shares of the Peel River Company ran up to-day to 181. to 2W. premium per 51. share, and left off about 141. to 161. premium, it is not probable any of the shareholders will fail to exercise their right of claiming the new issue. It is almost need less to remark that these arrangements will be sub mitted for the approval of the shareholders in public meeting. Attention may be usefully directed to the fact that gold has been found on two out of the three estates of this company, viz., on the Peel River and Liverpool Plains estates. The official notification of the discovery of the precious metal on the Liverpool Plains tract was published in the &rpm. of Monday, and this estate, it most be remembered, still remains in the possession of the Agricultural Company. The shares of the old company were favourably affected by the directors' statement, advancing from 245/. to 2551., at which they were quoted in the morning, to 2601. to 2701. A new feature was introduced to-day into the share list published by authority of the Committee of the Stock Exchange, the prices of dealings in the Australian Bank and Land shares being reported down to the close of the market. This is a move in the right direction. It is to be hoped, however, the Committee will not stop here, but will include in their list every evening a complete record of all the miscella neous share business concluded throughout the day. Up to the present time no miscellaneous share het has been published with prices later than one o'clock —certainly, a very inconvenient arrangement for the public. An abstract of the business officially re corded to-day in the several lists is annexed, vs.:— Bank of Australasia, 84, 1, 825, 84 • Char tered Bank of India, Australis, and China, 35 ; English, Scottish, and Australian Char tered Bank, 51 ; London Chartered Bank of Australia, 54, 5,1; Union Bank of Australia, 73,74; ditto new, 81 ; Australian Agricultural Company, 230, 255, 245, 258; South Australian Land, 53, 53, 53 ; Van Dieman's Land, 18,1, 161, 16, 20; Oriental Bank Corporation, 38, 1; Provincial Bank of Ire land, 471 ; South Australian Banking Company, 49, 45; Crystal Palace, 5; Netherlands Land Enclosure, 25; North of Europe Steam, 21; Royal Mail Steam, 80; French South Eastern Railway Shares were quoted to prom.; Healers and Oraissesser, Ito 11 prem.; Bank of Asia, par to prem.; London Bank of Australia and India, 1 tol prem.; Brant ford and Buffalo Railway Bonds, 1 to 3 per cent. prem.; Orleans and Epernay Railway, par to 1 prem. The prices of other new undertakings were the same as reported by us yesterday. Interest at the rate of 5 per oent. per annum on the capital stock of the National Loan Fund Life Assurance Society, for the half year ending the 31st December, is advertised as payable on the 10th of Jan Letters from Florence, of the 15th of December, mention that the offers for the new Tuscan loan were to be made known on the following Monday. The sum required, it appears, is only 21,000,000 lire (about 700,0001.), instead of 100,000,060 air, as erro neously reported. The new stock is to be a Three per Cent., and the tenders are not expected to exceed 00 per cent. With this new loan the total debt of Tuscany will be raised to 93,238,900 lire, or about 3,174,000/. sterling. There is some talk of convert ing the whole of the existing dcbt of Tuscany into a Three per Cent. Stock. The expenditure and reve nue of the grand duchy, as shown in the budget for 1853, are equally balanced, the loan appearing to be mainly required for the maintenance of the Austrian Raogal £181,666 6 Madras 11,629 4 Bombay 3,689 9 Total £290.774 0 4 The market for American Stocks continues very active, and prion are firm.

Busitiess in the gold mining shares was not so excited to-day, and the prevalent disposition, so far as regards the second and third rate companies, was still to sell. Of the better descriptions there were a few more purchasers, but there is not much disposi tioi: to enter into fresh transactions with a very heavy settlement approaching. Nouveau Monde shares were firmer, forming an exception to the general character of the market. Generally at the close of business prices were a shade better than in the official list. Cobre and Santiago shares were much offered, and reeedee. Australian Copper, English and Australian Copper Smelting, and United Mexican, were all drooping.

ALARMING ACCIDENT.—On the morning of Fri. day, the skeleton rafters for the new iron roof of the pas senger station at the Junction Railway, Arbroath, extending in length to about lot) feet, fell with a tre mendous crab. The individuals at the station made a miraculous escape. Mr. Alba, the station 111.11.0 T, was, however, struck on the head by one of the rafters, and though not not dangerously, he is severely injured. One of the sheds was completely smashed. The accident may be partly ascribed to the very tempestuous weather and the want of the diagonal braces to the erection which the workmen were strut to put up.—Edinburgh Courant. THE CZAR AND NAPOLEON lll.—The correspondent of the Hamburger Nacheichten writes from Rt. Petersburg, on the 13th: " The note which M.
