It is further stated that Lord Dalhousie distinctly records his opi nion that the prosecution of railways in India should be entrusted to joint-stock enterprise, and that the system should be greatly extended, especially in Upper India. Shareholders of the Upper India Rail way Company are looking with especial interest for the arrival of this document, as the India papers and correspondence are almost unanimous in recommend ing the construction of the line. Reference on the subject having been made to the Governor-General in December last, it is considered that ample time has been allowed him in which to frame his report. Notice has been issued of the drawing in due course of sundry bonds of the Hanoverian Five per Cent. Loan, of 1846, which are accordingly to be presented for payment. All miscellaneous stocks were depressed to-day. Australian Agriculturals were at one time as low as 55, closing 56 to 59. At four o'clock British Ameri ' can Land shares were quoted 70 to 74 ; South Australian Land, 38 to 40 ; Van Dieman's, 17 to 18 ; North British Australasian, 1 to prem. ; and Scottish Australian Investment, 11 to prem. All the Australian and Oriental Bank shares were likewise lower. Crystal Palace shares left off at 21 to 1 prem. Shares of the Bank of British North America have been done at 63 ; Colo nial Bank, 181 ; Union Bank of London, 181, 4; Magdalena Steam (41. paid), 31 ; Peninsular and Oriental Steam, 721, 74 e x di v . • oyal Mail Steam, 75.

The directors of the London Chartered Bank of Australia have just made a third call of 21. 10s. per share, making 151. paid up, payable by the 20th of July. The colonial wool sales at the Hall of Commerce continue t 3 be well attended by both home and foreign buyers, and prices are fully maintained for every description of wool. A considerable quantity has been bought for foreign account, and we notice more of the continental dealers at these sales than have been present for several series. The last day of the sales is Tuesday, the 7th inst.

The railway market opened at a rally from the depressed rates of yeeterday and was maintained with comparative firmness till lialf an hour ago, when intelligence of the rise in the rate of discount caused extreme heaviness. At the present moment the market is so unsettled, that reliable quotations can scarcely be given, but the feeling is one of gloom.

A quarterly general court of the members of this eeeperation wee held yesterday, at the (Aces, Crown -court, Threadneedle-street (Mr. Gladstone, the treasurer, in the chair), when the following report was read and adopted.

With nod be the malts of the society's efforts, very few of the boys who left the school se emigrants or for pines of employment in England have disappointed the hopes of the com mittee, while many of thine who left the school from restlessness or impatience of its discipline have since maintained an honest character and done well. On the whole, in spits of all the obstacles with which the committee have had to straggle—in the novelty of the sys tem pursued at the school, the incompleteness of its arrange ment', the variety of age, the condition of the boys, and the anomalous state of the laws relative to juvenile delinquency —full 70 per neat. of those received have been permanently and substantially improved by its agency. The committee are now most desirous to further enlarge the institution, that the cost per head for maintenance, &c., may be still more reduced, and the benefits of the society's training more ex tended. Some conversation ensued respecting the expedi ency of enlarging the building, and appealing to the public for additional funds to enable the committee to carry out that desirable object, and the business terminated. 1 9- 3 1 lei 1 14 I 4 pm 1 1 0 64 tsmat p .

(Rear, hear.) LICENSED VICTUALLERS' ASYLUM. The twenty-fifth annual dinner of the supporter, of this iastituuon took place yesterday, at the Ilighbury Barn T , and was more numerously attended than on lay previous occasion; CHAULIS CHASILINOTON, Esq., of the firm of Charrington, Head, and Co., was in the chair, supported by numbers of the Mat influential members of the trade. The CHAIRMAN, in propene; " The Health of the Queen," stated that her Majesty was a governor of the in stitution, always voted at elections, and never failed to make herself acquainted with their results. After the other usual toasts had been disposed of, The beCULTARY read a report, which gave a very fa- Testable account of the progress of the institution, although semplaint was made that of the 10,000 licensed victuallers of the metropolis only 3,000 contributed to its feuds. The subscriptions of the past year had amounted to a sum of 2,7831, an amount far beyond the receipts of any previous year.

A list of subscriptions was announced, containing very liberal contributions from licensed victuallers and their vices and families. To the subscriptions, the firm of Coarrington and Head and persons attached to their eats biahment added a sum of 2161., which, with the amount obtaiaed by their exertions among their friends, made a total of nearly 4001.

Yesterday Mr. hitAliewhite, the summoning officer of Christ Church, B:stainers, sent information to Mr. Carter, the Surrey coroner, that one of the witnesses summoned before the tlenuttee of the house respecting the Liverpool election, Lid destroyed his life. It appears that two of the electors, cue armed Thos. Parkinson and the other (his cmisin) Jsseph Parkinson, took lodgings for the time they were 'milted to attend the committee, in Brunswick-street, Biaclitriar. road. On Tuesday morning Tnomas Parkinson fraceeded to the water-closet in the yaid,whers he managed tepees a black silk handkerchief through a hole in the due, and then suspended himself to the same.

This morning, between 12 and l n'eloek, a destructive fire broke out on the m ouse. of Mr. John lAnghain, a grocer, at No. 81, I'on• 16 111 . . place, Vanahall-bridge-road, Pimlico. The build -118. *hitt' was of great extent, formed the angle of two this /8401ms, Prospect•place and Ponsonbrplace. With 418 t1vd44,31 se possible the engine. of 'the London Bri ts& sad west of England office, with Mr. Staple. and XL Canoodle, were soon on the spot, as well as the Royal Stiety's escapes. Unfortunately, for some tiles a great lack ot water was experienced, and owing to the flames uarrstruised they continued to progress fearfully. At ware • pientifel supply of water was procured from which Ike engines were set to work, but in spite of the torrents of water thrown upon the fire it continued to +prod, and even teal. y the entire st ru ct ure presented one immense sheet of was. The firemen, to lave the adjoining houses, had to feed the roof., and by that expedient the fire was prifi•l aly confined to the premises in which it began, but it is' regretted that 02,1 were totally destroyed, and love 'll lodgers in the house have lost the whole of their pro- ROSPIT.4L FOR CONSUMPTION AND DISEASES OF THE CHEST. The annivereary festival of this institution was celebrated yesterday evening, at Willis's Rooms, St. James's. The chair was taken by the Marquis of WWl mixersz, who was supported by Lord Faversham, Lord Dynevor, the Rev. Sir H. Foulis, Mr. Warner, M.P., the Rev. W. W. Bowyer, the Rev. R. Montgomery, He. In proposieg the toast of the evening, " Prosperity to the Hospital," the chairman stated that the total number ad mitted . using the last year was 443, of whom 292 were dircharge . d relieved, 61 died in the hospital, and 90 re mained in the wards; that the amber of out-patients treated during the same period was 3,671, and that the total number relieved since the opening of the new building was 23,886. The receipts during the year 1&52 amounted to 9,9001. When it was remembered (continued the chairman), that one-eighth of the aggregate mortality arose from these diseases, and that there were constantly persons perishing to whom aid might be rendered if the funds were adequate, they must all feel that further contributions were loudly called for. One motive for supporting the institution was that it had been the medium of diffusing most useful scientific information with regard to the proper treatment of cue, of consumption. The knowledge first obtained at this hospital was now spread over the whole country ; and he had himself met with instances in which its circulation had proved beneficial. He was happy to find that the managers had procured an additional area of land adjacent to the hospital, having incurred an expense of no leas than 16,0001. in order to secure that desirable result. The toast was most cordially reponded to, as was also that of " the Chairman," proposed by Lord Dynevor. The subscriptions included the following :—the Chairman, 601. ; the Duchess of Okaieester, 201. ; the Duchess of Cambridge, 30 guinea; Lord Dynevor, 101.; Lord Faversham, 24 guineas ; Mr. J. Labouchere, 201. The aggregate of the sums announced was about 2,0001. THE SCHOOL ANNIVERSAHT AT ST.

Mr. Milner Gibson, M.P., presided, and, in introducing the subject to the meeting, alluded to the prohibitory duties which were still levied in both countries on the products of the other. Mr. Graham said he anticipated the best effects from the Ex hibition of Paris. Though high and almost prohibitory duties were levied there on British goods, he apprehended they would coma there in competition with all the productions of the world, and would command the attention of the public. A discuss;ou ensued, in which the general opinion ex pressed was in favour of a reduction of the duties at pre sent levied on English and French goods in favour of their own products. ACCIDENT TO MR. COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS.— The accident that happened to Mr. Commissioner Phil lips on Monday was of more serious nature than antici pated. The learned gentleman was knocked down and trampled upon, receiving some bruises on his right arm.

The depression noticed by us as existing in the market for home mining stocks for some time past was aggravated to-day by the decision of the copper smelters to make a further reduction of Id. per lb. in the price of copper, and by the feeling of gloom that pervaded the security markets generally. In view of the fact that, since the last fall in the price of copper, the standard has risen some 91. per ton, the movement of the smelters is regarded with some surprise. Transactions in all stocks are very limited, and, consequently, we have no list of prices to report. The gold mining shares have suffered rather se verely from a pressure of sales, and closed without any appearance of a rally at considerably reduced rates for such descriptions as command premiums. Peel River fell to 11 to 1 prem., but subsequently rallied. At 4 o'clock Peel River were quoted at 11 to 21 prem. ; Colonial Gold, 11 to 11 prem. ; Port Phalli), par to a prem.; British Australian Gold, dis. to a prem.; Nouveau Monde, 11 to 11 prem.; Apra Fria, 1 3.16 to 1 5-16 prem.; Anglo-Califor nian, to a prem. Shares of the Jamaica copper mining companies shared in the general depression. Metcalfe. closed 8 to 61 prem. only. Shares of the old Australian Copper Company were also severely depressed, closing 2to 3 only. United Mexican were heavy at 4to 41, and Mexican and South American were also flatter. Copiapo shares formed the only exception in this market, being 10e. higher. The closing prices of new undertakings are as follows : London and Liverpool Australian Gold Mining and Streaming, 3-14 to 3-18 prem.; Mel bourne Gold, ato a per share ; Australian Mutual, to dia. ; Australian Consols, = to I dia.; Monarch Gold, 3-16 to 1-16 dis. ; Chartered Australian Land and Mining, 1 to $ per share; Lewis Hill Range, 1 to 1 per share ; Golden Mountain,; to a per share ; Lake Superior Copper, a dis. to par ; Ceylon Land end Mining, a do. to par; Pontgiband Silver Lead, par to a prem. ; Cologne Lead, dia. to par ; Brucutu Gold, 1-16 to 3-18 prem.; Car berry West, 3-16 to 1-16 dia.; Connemara, par to 1 prem.; Glenaulin, 3-16 to 1-16 die.; Sulphate of Barytes, Ito 1 per share ; L'Aigle d'Or, dis. to par ; Adelaide Land and Gold, 1 to 01 din. ; Obernhof, to 1 pm. ; Britannia Gold, Ito a per share ; Poltamore, dis. to par ; Benmare, 1 to a per share; British and Colonial Smelt ing and Reduction, a to 1 prem.; Respryn Copper, par to prem. ; Parkwin and Oarwalsick Tin, / to 1 prem.; Aubin Coal and Iron, a to la prem.; Garnett and Moseley, 1 to 11 prem.; Jamaica Cop per, 31 to 3/ prem.; South Devon Consols, dis. to par ; New Linares, to prem. ; Great Hewes United Tin, 1 dia. to prem.; Mizen Head, dis.to par; London and Virginia Gold and Copper, par to a pm.; New South Wales Coal, die. to t prem. ; Austra lasian Coal, 1 to a dis.; Mount Carbon Coal, / dis. to par. ; Port Hunter and Moreton Bay Coal, to 1 prem. ; Sue River (of Jamaica), l• to 1 prem. ; Metcalfe (of Jamaica), 6 to 61 pm.; Port Royal (of Jamaica) / to la pm. ; Oladbach Zinc, a to 1 prem. ; Hnockatrellane Copper, 1 to a dis. ; East Indian Iron, 7.. to 91. per s h are; Great Cambrian Milling and Quarrying, 1 tot prem.

The funds to-day were much agitated, and, after various fluctuations, closed at a fall of 1 per cent. This depression has exercised sympathetically an unfavourable influence through out the Stock Exchange, and in the several depart ments prices, as a rule, have seriously receded, clos ing with a gloomy appearance. Daring the greater part of the day the aspect of the Turkish question was chiefly referred to as the cause of the prevalent depression, leading to considerable speenlative sales, partly on French account, but in the after noon a more favourable tendency was induced owing to its becoming known that the Paris Bourse of to-day exhibited a much stronger appearance. Towards the close of the offi cial business hours, however, sales were renewed largely, and a report becoming at the same time general that the Bank of England directors contem plated an advance in the rate of discount, a species of panic set in, from which there was little, if any reco very. It is stated that the applications for discounts at the Bank, during the last two or three days, have been very considerable. Consols opened at 100/ for money, and 1004 for the 19th July, suddenly declined 1 to 4 per cent., and after a partial rally, finally fell, on the reports of a contemplated rise in the rate of discount, to 991 to for money, and 991 to par for account, which was the concluding range of the market. Considerable purchases of money stock have been made on the fall, but their effect has been quite neutralised by "bear" operations. At four o'clock the receipt of higher prices from Paris induced no signs of a rally. Deducting 11 for the five months' dividend that has accrued on Consols, the price is now vir tually equal to 98: to 1. The other classes of the home debt experienced a corresponding fall, the Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. receding to 1014. The official business report embraces :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 1001, 4, 100, 1, 991 ; ditto for account, 19th July, 1001, 4, 100. Three per Cents. Reduced, 991, 4, 1. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 102, 4,1, 1014. Bank Stock, 230. Exchequer Bills remain depressed. The transac tions in the March issue were at Is. dia., 2s. prem., and par, and in the advertised bills at 3s. to le. din. India Banda mark 255. prem. The foreign stock market, as might be expected, showed a downward tendency throughout the day, but generally sales are not heavily pressed in this department. Peruvian scrip is marked par, but after the regular business hours was widely quoted 1 to 2 prem. Russian stocks do not suffer sensibly in price. Mexican Bonds formed a prominent excep tion to the general aspect of the market. There are influential buyers of this stock, and the price, after standing for a moment as high as 264 to 4, reached at the final close to 261 to I. To-day fell due a third dividend on the bonds, equal in all to 41 per cent. Peruvian Deferred Threes were quoted at 4 o'clock 60 to 62; Spanish Deferred, 224 to 231 ; the Com mittee's Certificates, 51 to 6 per cent. ; Granada Active, 21 to 22 ; ditto Deferred, 94 to 101. The list of sales is annexed :—Bra . =ban Old Five per Cent. Bonds, 100: ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 981, 4, ex div. Chihan Six per Cents., 103.

To-day about 70,0001. of the cargo of the Epaminondas was sent in. Another Australian arrival was announced to-day, viz., that of the Wellington, from Hobart Town, which port she left about the sth of February. It is not known whether she brings any gold or not. It appears the Hannah, the arrival of which was re ported yesterday, has no gold on board. Our anticipation of the reflux of Russian gold to this side is being already realised. It was announced by telegraph to-day that the Emperor steamer had arrived at Hull, from St. Petersburg, with about 80,000/. in gold. This vessel brings intelligence of the wreck of the Neptune steamer on Neckman's Ground, at the entrance of the Gulf. The paseen gers were landed in safety, the vessel being fall of water, but five of them could not reach the ltmperor. The Neptune was bringing over about 40,0001. in half imperials from St. Petersburg for London, the whole of which is stated to have been saved. It may be useful to repeat that after three o'clock to-morrow (Thursday) the advertised Exchequer Bills cannot be presented for payment. The new duty on tea was received at the Custom , house to-day for the first time. Every arrangement was made to facilitate the payments and give des patch. About 17,000 entries passed, and some 230,000 t. was received, equal to about 2,800,0001 be. of tea. It is probable that the demand for money for this purpose has had considerable effect in tend ing to increase the stringency of the money market. Annexed are the returns of the progress of the conversion. The present state of political uncer tainty, and the reports of a probable advance in the value of money, are seriously interfering with this operation, and their influence will be the more detrimental, owing to individual holders of South Sea securities being only allowed till Friday next to signify their acquiescence. Under these circum stances it is apprehended that many holders of these stocks will remain passive, and thus call upon go vernment to pay them off at par. As holders of Consols and Reduced Threes are allowed until Octo ber to signify their wish to take some of the new stocks in exchange for their present holdings, it is not likely they will move to any extent at present, with the stock and money markets in so unsettled a state.

Some trifling fluctuations followed, the general tone of the market being one of comparative steadi ness, till a quarter-past one o'clock, when came the announcement that the Bank of England directors, at their weekly board meeting to-day, have raised their minimum rate of discount to 34 per cent. Prices immediately evinced great unsteadiness, and a fall of a quarter per cent. followed. Consols now rule at 991 to par for July, but the market is very unsettled. For money a quotation can scarcely be given, as the books close to-day, but the price is about 991 to 1. In every department of the Stock Exchange the step of the Bank has given rise to a very unsettled feeling and much discussion; but the movement is es yet too recent to have produced its full effect.

The gold mining shares were steady all the morn ing, but within the lest half hour great flatness has supervened, on the announcement of the Bank of England movement. The effect upon prices, how ever, is not yet fully perceptible; Colonial Gold shares and Great Nugget Vein stand at 11 prem. In land shares the greatest agitation has pre vailed. Australian Agriculturals have fluctuated some 51. or 61. per share, and are now quoted 54 to 57. Peel Rivers opened I} to I prem., rose to 2s prem., sad have since reacted to 11 to prem.

The chairman stated that since the last meeting he had communicated to the chairman of the company the resolutions which was then agreed to. lie then read the reply, in which it was stated that the directors did not admit their obligation to hold meetings otherwise than was prescribed by the statutesof the company, but that it had al .rays been their intention to lay before the shareholders a statement of the affairs of the company when their interests required it ; and that a statement, which he believed would prove most satisfactory, was then in preparation. This, Mr. Head observ , d, was a mere reiteration of what had been stated before in answer to complaints. Mr. J. Brookes then moved a resolution declaring that the manner in which the alteration in the statutes had been carried out, ought to he brought under the notice of the committee of the Stock Exchange, and that the shareholders be invited to express their concur rence in this view, in writing, to the chairman, at that tavern, stating their address sad the number of shares held by them, with view to the convening of a special meet ing.
