LITERATURE. PALEY'S NATURAL TIIROLOOT A GLARING PLA OTARISII.- —A correspondent of the Athentruns has discovered that this work is copied from a series of papers which ap. peered about tho end of the 17th century, in the Leipric Transactions, by a Dutch philosopher, named Nienwentyt. It is extraordinary that this discovery was not made before, seeing that the papers after having been published at Amsterdam about the year 1700, were afterwards translated into English by Mr. Chamberlayne, and published by Longman and Co. in 1818, about 15 years after Paleys Natural Theology appeared. As Paley qultes Dr. Nien wentyt, from the Leipsic Transactions, he, of course, must have known of and perused them. Parallel passages are printed side by side in the Atheneum, which seem to prove the ease. _Mask. ROTA!. ITALIAN Gralta.—" Guglielmo Tell," a new Italian version of Romeni's " Guillaume Tell," was brought out at Covent-garden en Saturday evening. The producuoa of this opera, on which great labour and expense must have bora bestowed, at the very end of the season, when it cannot possibly be repeated more than once o r twice, can scarcely be regarded as an act of good management; the more especially As it has immediately followed the " Huguenots," the most successful and remunerating piece that has as yet been brought forward at the Royal Italian Opera. But though this last novelty cannot be considered a stroke of good policy, it is at all events a proof of aerially and spina. At the same time, as both the " litguenota " and " Guillaume Tell " (as well is other operatic novelties) have been announced since the very outset of the establishment, the delay in their production is much to be regretted, as their timely perform ance would have obviated the charge made with too much foundation against the management of this theatre, that, in place of striking into a new and independent course, it has 1 great measure followed the heekneyed routine of the old house. It is easier, after all, to project new plans than to follow them out ; and the directors of this theatre have doubtless encountered many obstacles for which, in their inexperience, they were unpreperid. Whatever may have, been the causes of the delay in the cases both of the " Huguenots " and "Guillaume Tell," both operas have been brought out with a core, completeness, and splen dour most honourable to the theatre. Notwithstand. ing . the European celebrity of Rossini's last great work, it is less known in this countey than might hare been expected. 'the French libretto, by M. Jouy, is founded on Schiller's play, which, however, is not responsible for the dramatic Inuits of the opera. It was first performed at the Acadimie Royale de Musique in 1829 with a degree of suc cess which has only been since equalled by that of " Robert le Diable" and the " Huguenots ;" these thrce paces hav ing, almost to this day, maintained the chief possession of the " grand opera" stage. In the following season of 1830 it was produced at Drury-lace, but with a preposterous change of 'abject and title; Hafer the unfortunate patriot of the Tyrol, having been, in defiance of dramatic propriety. substituted for the liberator er f Switzerland. It had conside rable success for a time ; but the opera has never attracted much attention in its English dress. It was performed in Italian at her Majesty's Theatre some eight or too yearn 11,0, but was indifferently got me, and made no impression. The Italian version now performed at the Royal Italian Opera, by Signor Maggioni, is ably executed. The piece is consi derably abridged, tut still its length is more than commie n surate with its dramatic interest, which, indeed, is by no means great. The incidents, meagre in the extreme, are eked out by a string of tates, pageants, and dances, equal in duration to et least a third of the whole ; and by the intro duction of some love-pausges of the most cold end insipid kind. Arnold (who, notwithstanding the title of the piece, stands in the position of the hero) has no character at al.—be is feebleness personified; while Matilda, lugged in that ti e said hero may have somebody to tall in love with, is as arrant • " walking gentlewoman" as ever trod the bards, and is, moreover, introduced in the most absurd and impasaible situations. The principal (indeed almost the only) inciden t Tell's shooting at the apple on his sou's head—has • schoolboy familiarity which deprives it of everything Mi. pressire, and it cannot be represented on the stage with out becoming childish and ridiculous. All the madness and feeling of Tamburici's deportment, and all Mademoiselle Corbari's pretty acting as the boy Jemmy, could net, we confess, divest it in our eyes of this aspect. The subject of the opera, however, notwithstanding its unskilful treat ment, is essentially noble, and has certainly given birth to Rossini's noblest inspirations. During the etx ur seven years which intervened beween the production of " Semiramide n and "Guillaume Tell" (an interval Finset in apparent Mac tieity), Rossini's style and character as a c imposer under went so entire a change, that in the grave, pr. found, elabo rate, and masculine music of this last work, we cannot recog nise a single feature which distinguished him during his whole previous career. There is still a rich vein of Italian melody; but it is no longer (and this change is the most re markable of all) the melody of Rossini. It has none of that peculiar tournure, that cast of phraseology, which clings to a composer whites--r changes may be perceptible in his modes of barmony and instrumentation. It has not only greater strength and elleitt7, but the local colouring which pervades it is a feeture to whieh Rossini previously paid no attention. From the very overture these characteristics are apparent. The delicious strain fa rn the violoncellos, stealing almost imperceptibly . upon the car, is like the quiet dawn of a lovely =Prang; the gradual rise of a mountain storm, the calm which follows, and the pastoral melody of the shepherds, bring to mind (without plagiarism) Beethoven's treatment of a similar subject; and the rapid and spirit-stirring pat redoubli appropriately con cludes this introduction to a tale of rustic patriotism. The choruses are a leading feature of this opera. They are nu merous, largely developed, and varied is character. 'they equal the choruses of Meyerheer in power of combination and dramatic a ffect, and greatly excel them in symmetry of forth, melodious flow, and grateful sometime u. The open ing chorus, " E it cid ser.no," a pace of rich five part har mony, of a somewhat antique character, breathes ad the freshness and serenity of the scene, and blends beautifully with the fisherman's simple ballad with which it Mier mates. The finale to the first act, • scene of up roar, its which old Machtal is seized, and carried awev by the tyrant's soldiers, is worked up with gm it vigour. But the grand di-play of Roesini's power in this branch is the finale to the second act, the meeting of the inhabitants of the different cantons prepared to rise in arms against their oppressor. The patriot hands descending through tho mountain pares, we ecomed by their leader as they successively enter, joining in the solemn oath of union and fidelity, and separating with the battle-cry "To arms form a scene not surpassed in animation by anything on the stage—a scene which has roused the whole energies of the musician. Its effect, as represented on Saturday, in the pie turesque beauty of the spectachnthe noble bearing of the patriot chief, and the astonishing fire of the chorea, produced a degree of excitement in the theatre never exceeded within the walls of the " grand opera." There arc very few molar airs, moat of the solos being introduced in t e concerted pieces in which the business of the drama is chiefly carried on. One of the most celebrated pieces is the duet in the first act, in which Arnold, distracted by his love for the tyrant's si,ter, is roused by Tell eo the tense of his duty to his country. It is quite a model fir the musical treatment s f an impassioned oislogui combining !orce t ropidity resai.ge of sentiment, with great variety aid beauty of melody. The passage, " Ah, Matilde, io sung a parte by Arnold, exquisitely tender and p ohmic. There is soother duet between Arnold and Matilda, which is lees sue metal. its coldness is wa.thy of the frigid loves of the pair, the lady's part of it being a more tissue of roulades and bravura passages. The trio between Arnold, Tell, an 1 Walter Furst, in which Arnold is told of his father's murder, is another great fea ture ; the music of Arnold's part is the very cry of anguish and despair. The same originality of character pervades every part of the opera. lien n the dances, long as they are, derive a charm from the novelty of their music—beautiful national strains sung by the chorus instead of being played by the band. The flattest pert of the piece is ins conclusion. It is, indeed, so flat that we believe it is generally left out altogether, the curtain fa ling when Arnold rushes out at the head of hie followers to attack the tyrant. The sequel may be tak n for granted, and its omission is a de sirable curtailment of a very king piece. The character of Ar nold was suaeineei by M. Koge . :, its • WISLILtr worthy, on the wto le, of his high reputation. But it unfortunately hap pened that he was suffering under a sore throat, which im paired his vocal powers, and made Ilan sing, in the most trying pase,ges, with a pain:ul effort, which was very per ceptible. It was moat praiseworthy in him to exert himself'' as he did andsr such a disadvantage ; but, in justice to him, his indisposition ought to have been notified to the audience. With this drawback his performance was that of a great actor and a great singer ; full of judgment, energy, expres sion, and fine vocal execution. Tanaburini's personation of 7'ell was everything that could be desired—noble, ample, and manly ; and we never heard him sing more beautifully. Madame Caste lan, as Matilda, Bang sweetly and bril liantly, which was all She had to do. Mademoiselle Corhari, as the boy Jemmy, following her father like kis shadow, and watching his every look and gesture, made one of the most engaging pictures imaginable. Marini stave great effect to the brief but energetic part of Walter. This performer is certainly tiring in dramatic power; the quality of his tam voice can scarcely be summated. Polonini was a good r. presentative of the aged Melchtal, and Inglis. fico was a gruff and peremptory tyrant. The mangiticent choruses were sung with correspondicg magnificence; and Costa's unrivalled orchestra was in all its glory. The theatre Was crowded, and the performance was received with every demonstration of applause. • • A NEW SYMPHONY BY DAVID.—The Debuts an nounces that in a few days will be produced, at the Opera, in Paris, a new work by Felicien David, entitled " Eden."

Sena.—Before the &cd Cheer Baron and a Common Jury. ALLCUCK v. Burr.—Cosre OF ACTIONN IY SUPEILIOR COURTS —Mr. Chambers and Mr. Pearson were for the plaintiff, and herieant C. Jones for the defendant.—William Butt, the brother of the defendant, was desirous of borrow ing a turn of 501, from the West Marylebone Loan Society, and the plaintiff consented to sign a promissory note f.l. the amount, in conjunction with the present defendant, Edward Butt, the understanding beins ' according to the case for the plaintiff, that he was to be held perfectly harmless in the transaction. and that the defendant and hi, brother were to be the really resionsible parties for the repayment of the money. The loan was paid off pretty regularly, but at length it ap p eared that there was an arrear or 101 . due upon it, with 21. for fines, and about this time William Butt de stroyed himself. Very soon afterwards it appeared that the note was handed to a person named Israel, but under what circumstanced did not precisely appear, except that it was suggested it was the intention of the parties to place it in the hands of an attorney, who was a friend, in ureter that he might cue in a superior court, and obtain the extra costs, and very shortly afterwards an appli cation was made to Mr.Al!cock by an atto.nsy, named Hum phries, in Featherstone-buildings, who represented that the pri.misseiry note was in the possession of a person named Elizabeth Sinew, who bad given consideration for it, and who had instructed him to sue for the whole amount. Mr. Alcoek consulti el his attorney, Mr. Wellborn, upon this application, and he made inquiries ; but finding that it would be very difficult to obtain evidence of fraud, he advised the plaintiff to come to terms with the parties, and he agreed to pay 211. for the debt and 71. 17s. 6d. for the costs, it appearing perfectly cl ar that at this time no more than 101 was actually due upon the note. It was alleged in b. half of the plaintiff, that the whole of the 281. 17e. 6d. was paid by him according to the arrangement, and upon application being made to the defendant to repay the mosey, it was stated that he at once. in the presence of Mr. Wellhurn, admitted that the plaintiff had only put his name to the rote at his request to arcom molate his brother, and that he ought not to be a foe, r, and he promised to pay the money on the nth June, and it was stated that he did pay 61. on account, thus reducing the claim to the amount now sought to be recovered. The case on the part of the defendant was that Allcock heirg himself in needy circumstances, had several times been 'concerned sith William Butt in loan transactions, and that this was one of a similar character, and that he was perfectly web aware that only 101. was due upon the note, and that consequently it was cot likely he should hays paid 2SI. 17s. It was a'sto positively sworn that when the plaintiff's attorney was making application to the defendant, Allcock ad witted ouly 10f. was due; and it was arranged that the de tendont a! ould pay 51., and that Allcock ehould elso pay 5!., and so settle the matter; and it was alleged that the 51. paid by the defendant was in pursuance of that agreement, and that he also told Allcock that it he allowed any legal pro ceedings to take place he must pay the costs himself. The Chief Baron, in the course of the :case, expressed sa . . . opinion that the plaintiff could not recover in this action the amount that he had paid over the sum actually due upon the note, but that was a question between him and the loan society, and the defendant would only be lisble for the sum actually due upon the promissory note. Mr. Chambers, in replying upon the whole case, urged that the defence which had been set up was based on fraud and falsehood, and he said that all the circumstances of the cane showed that the version of the transaction given on the part of the plaintiff was the correct . one, and that he was en titled to a verdict. The Chief Baron, in summing up, said it was quite clear that there was deliberate falsehood either upon one side or the other, and be was very glad that it was for the jury to decide the question upon which side the truth lay. It was quite char that there had been some very gross Irwin prac tised with regard to the note in question, and that the seere tiry to the loan society had enabled that fraud to be com mitted by pawing the note away. The learned judge then went through the evidence, and said, aftir explaining why in law, in his opinion, the larger amount could not he re c sired,ttiat, it they believed the intendant's witnesses, they must still find a verdict for the plaintiff for 11., because that amount, according to their own showing, would still be due .; but, if they thought the plaintiff had made out his cue, they would then find a verdict for 01.—The jury imme diately returned a verdict for the plaintiff—damages 61. Mr. Chambers then applied to his lordship for a certificate that the cause was a proper one to be tried in a superior court.—The Chief Baron said he did not think he ought to grant a certificate. The costs of actions in the superior courts were so enormous, and the county courts were so be neficial, that he was always inclined to let the law take its course where less than 201. was recovered, unless some ques tion of right was involved in the inquiry. The coats of the action would probably be 1001. or 1201., and it might just as well have been tried in the county court, where the courts would not have been more than 101. or 151.—Mr. Chambers reminded the court that there was a question of law involved in the inquiry.—The Chief Baron said at pres:nt he was not inclined to grant the certificate, but he would consider the matter during the assizes. Avo. 12. Corm, Comm.—Before Mr. Justice Coltman. MATRICIDE.— W. Harris, 27, was indicted for the wilful murder of his mother, Jane Harris, by beating her and cast ing her upon the ground. This case occupied the court the greater part of the day, but the principal facts of the charge lay in a very small compass. It appeared that the deceased was a drunken, dissolute old woman, who got her living by beg ging ; and her son, the prisoner, also led an idle vagabond life, and when drunk they frequently quar relled and exchanged blows with each other. On the night of the 25th March they were drinking at a public-house in Guildford, and when they left at night they were both par tially intoxicated, and it seemed that they then made their way to a limekiln in the neighbourhood, where they intended THE E PRESS, MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 14, 1848. to pass the night. The next morning the deceased wae found in a shed else, to the lime-kiln very much beaten and bruised and covered with blood, and it appeared that the injuries she received were of such a character as to cause her death very shortly afterwards. Hothalami, the inepector of polio@ at Guildford, immediately instituted the necessary inquiries, and he ascertained that the prisoner and three other men, named Bignell, Wood, and Stevens, had passed thenightja question near the limo-kiln along with the de emed, and he caused them all to be taken into custody. At first they denied havieg seen any violence made use of towards the deceased, but ultimately they expressed admire to tell the truth, and they then stated that the prisoaer had knocked his mother down by a violent blow with his fist, and that he then dragged her several times round the kiln, and afterwards lifted her up two or three times and thrtw her with great force upon the ground, and that she wasinsensible from that time until daybreak, when they carried her out and placed her in the shed, where she was found in the state above described. When the prisoner was first apprehended, and told the charge that was made sgainst him, he denied having struck his mother, and declared that ' she had received the injury by falling down a chalk pit ; but while he was in custody he was heard to call out to the other men, who were in a separate cell, and ask them not to say anything about what they saw at the lime kiln, and promised them half-a-crown if they did what he desired. The prisoner subsequently expressed great contrition for what he had done, and said that now his mother was dead he would destroy himself the first opportunity that pre sented itself.—Mr. Robinson addressed the jury at consi derable length for the prisoner, sad urged that the act had been committed in a moment of excitement, and that the offence did not amount at all events to the crime of murder. —The learned judge having summed up, the jury, alter a very short deliberation, found the prisoner guilty of Mon slaughter. Sentence deferred. CIVIL Sm.—Before the lord Chief Baron. Ricstaitna v. 14)151) S I'FF I NUL—Upon this case being called on, Mr. Lush, who appeared for the defendant, said he was afraid his witnesses had not yet arrived, and he ap plied to the court to let it stand over for a short time.—Mr. Chambers raid it was the next case in order, and he was ready, on the part of the plaintiff, to go on with it, He was willing, however, that the case should be referred. — Mr. Lash said he could not consent to a reference —The Chief Baron said that the case must proceed.—Mr. Cham bers then called for his witnesses, hut none of them answered He said he had no doubt they would he there very shortly. —Mr. Lush said he was quitaready now, and he should in sist upon the case being proceeded with. (A laugh.)—The Chief Baron : Well, Mr. Chambers, you know the old pro verb, what is sauce for one is sauce for the other.—Mr. Chambers Yes, my lord ; lam afraid I have no alternative bath:, withdraw the record.—The record was accordingly withdrawn. WESTERN CIRLIJIT.—Dsvizto4 Auo. 12. L The commission for the trial of prisoners was opened yes , 1 3 4 terday. Mr. Justice Williams and Mr. Justice Coleridge a proceeded at once to the court-house, where the regular bu sinrs3 was transacted. The calendar contains shout 60 pri soners, 6of whom are charged with manslaughter. Trip morning, atter the grand jury had been sworn, Mr. Ju•tice Coleridge d,slivi red his charge in the Crown court, and pro. ceeded to try prisoners. None of the caws were worth re porting. POLICE.—SATURDAY. MANSION-HOUSE.—A LUNATIC AND HIS REEFED. —'F. NnsitA was charged with having represented himself to be the keeper of a lunatic asylum. A. Mr. Booth stated that he saw a friend, who had a situation in the Customhouse, at the door of a public-house, and stopped to speak to him. They had scarcely int. rchanged civilities', when the defend ant started forward, and. seizlng the Custom-house officer, said to the wit.SCPS, "I am his keeper." Witness asked why he was in custody ? " Because, " replied the defendant, " is a lunatic.' Mr. Booth thought that the decedent looked more like a coalliesver than a mad-house keeper, and sus peeing that the defendant was endeavouring to make a vic tim, considered it necessary to ask for proof of his alleged occupation, and no satisfactory answer having been given, the interference of the police was required.—'The defendant now said he was the keeper of the gentleman.—The Lord Mayor: Upon what authority 7—The defendant Upon his own. lie engaged me regularly to take care of him. Ile is present, and can tell you that he engaged me to look after him —Here the patient said " It is true, I did engage him, and I shah pay him fir the job."— -Defendant said he was an engineer, and was going to his work, when the beet speaker stopped him, and said he'd pay uefendant to look well after him. "I am often employed by men to watch them, and prevent them from doing what they like; and I can tell his Ll o o r r i e , l lordship p do t t& I mawpsast patient employ u're right, f th.Vil7saTend'atl say, old fellow, do you take proper care of me, and you shan't want for nothing.—The Lord Mayor : I shall take care of you until you are able to take care of yourself; and I'll take care of your keeper, too, until I hear a little more about his qualifications—The patient and his keeper were then dos posited in different cells for two or three hours, when a fa vourable account having arrived of the character of each, they were discharged. BOW.STREET.—Dtset:run 1110117.—L. Foster WY charged with having, in coons lion with others, created a riot, in taking possession of certain premises, situated fa Milford-lane, Strand. The house in cremation was let to a person named Round, who gave the key to a carpenter for the purpose of basing some repairs executed ; and on Sun day afternoon, 30th July, the prisoner, assisted by several others, having effected a forcible entry, proceeded to demolish the windows by tearirg out the frames. They then sawed the rafters, and continued the work of destruction until they had literally gutted the premises. On the Tuesday follow. ing, a man in the employment of the prisoner appeared again upon the premises with a sledge.hamine r, and when in the act of destroying everything within bia reach, he was taken into custody, sod ordered to find bail, upon which a warrant was granted for the apprehension of the defendant.—The de fence brought forward was to this effect : That the prisoner had been in possession of the premises for the last twelve months in order to erect a printing machine for the land lords, respecting which some misunderstanding having arisen, law proceedings were commenced.—Mr. Jardine said he had nothing to do with the question of right, and u a riot had been ce mmitted by the prisoner and other persons employed by him, and it had been satisfactorily proved, be must find bail himself in '2001., and two sureties of 1001. each, to answer the charge on a future d:.y. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.—ROBBERY or PLATE. — J. Reeky, a butler in the service of Count D'Avietdor, diplo maticagent to the King of Santini*, was charged with being drunk and using insulting language to his master. He was also charged, on suspicion, with being concerned in a recent robbery of plate and jewellery, valued at between 2,0001. and 3,0001., the property of the count.—On the 19th July Count D'Aviador deposited in an iron box a quantity of plate and jewellery worth upwards of 2,0001. On the same afternoon the count had occasion to go to the box in question, when he discovered that it had been broken open, and the plate and jewellery stolen. Tr.e prisoner was immediately cusp cted, said a watch was placed en his movements. A man named C. Orellier was employed by the count to trace out the thief. From information he received he \Vint to the Great Western tavern, Oxford-sereet, and found the prisoner standing at the bar with several thieves. Witness watched them, and heard the prisoner call for a pot of al,. Witness also heard him say to his companions, "It's all right; I've just given the police the slip, and I'll now have a drink out of the produce of the robbery." A woman came up to the prisoner, and said something to him. He told her to " cut," and as soon as she got clear he would follow. The woman left the house, and the prisoner went after hershortly afterwards. Witness followed, but the prisoner finning he was watched, ran down a court, and witness lost sight of him. Witness afterwards found the prisoner at hie master's house in custody. The Count d'Avigelor told him that on the previous night, about 7 o'clock, he required the attendance of the prisoner, hut he could nowhere be round. On going into his be-.room the prisoner was toned !ling on the bed in a state of intoxication. Witness see ke him un, when the prisoner applied several insulting epithets to him, and made use of such equivocal eapreseions that he immediately sus pected the prisoner had been concerned in rubbing him of the plate and jewellery, and he gave him into custody. The prisoner denied the charge of rubbery. Since the rohliety had happened he had led • very miserable life, from the knowledge that he was watched by the police. It was to drown reflection that he hod taken too much liquor on Fri day.—Mr. Hardwick said the evidence in support of the charge of robbery was not sufficiently strong to warrant him in detaining the prisoner in custody. The tact of drunken ness h.vine been established, he should inflict a fine of ss. SOUTHWARK.—Fieneee.—Mr. Kingston was charged with an assault on Mr. Ba) field.—The complaieant said that he was sitting in the coffees-room of the Equestrian Tavern, next the Surrey theatre, on the evening of Wednesday last, and while looking over • newspaper, the defendant came in and called his. a swindler and liar. He also seized the paper from him, and tore it to piece's, then pulled him over the table, and in a violent manner seized hold of his nose.—Mr. North was tolled, ann said !he parties were " chaffing," and that all would have pa.sed over had not Mr. Kingston pulled Mr. Hay field's nue. The latter gentleman, however, called the other tho "Surrey Peppy." —Deleudant said he was much provoked, and would not have been guilty of such an attack bad he not been insults d. The magistrate suggested to the complainant that as he pave the first offence, the better way would be to settle the matter quietly.—After a little hesitation, the parties retired for a few minutes, and on Mr. Kingston making an apology, the complainant withdrew the charge. ASSAULT AND ATTEMPTED ROBBERY.—P. Wafts and Sarah, his wife, were charged with committing an saseult on Mary Nicholson, and attempting to plunder her of a purse of money and her shawl.—Complainant said that on Wednesday morning last she was proceeding along the Black friars road towards home with her husband, who was a cripple. When near Cross-street, the female prisoner came up and snatched her shawl away, and attempted to wrest her purse from her hand. Her husband came to her am stance, but as soon as he came up the male prianer wrenched his crutch from him and struck witness a number of blows on the head and boely with it. She was so brutally beaten, that she coon became insensible. Her husband corroborated the who!e of her testimony.—Mr. Purvis deposed to the' treat ment received by the complainant from the prhonen.—The prisoners said that they were first assaulted, land acted in self defence ; but they had no witnesses to calls—They were remanded. hensions which appear to prevail. There is some thing to blame in railway m anagement, and in the getting up of railway accounts doubtless, but also no small: exaggeration of whatever appears to be un favourable in public rumour.

Tun SLUTTISH CENTRAL TRAFFIC —We unfiennand that arrangements are in course of negotiation between the Edinburgh ad tiksgow and Gated nian Railways, as to the traffic by the central line, by which further nalipeution between the two former cola pinta, both in parliament and in the law courts, will be obviated. The terms have not transpired, but they are reported to have the some bars as stated in the last attempt at negotiation, viz.—the Edin burgh and Glasgow to have all the traffic to amid from Edinburgh and Eat b, and the am-half the proceeds:l that along the Glasgow line, leaving the through traffic north and south exclusively to the Cale. This arrangement, if perfected. will conduce much to the public sec mmodation in various respects, both as regards Idea and traffic, between Perth and Edinburgh and Glasgow, to which the hos tility of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Company has hitherto interposed ob•Metni. Thi• public will now look for more moderate rates oh charge both fur pawkier. and parcel- and return tickets to the above chase daily, as mcustomary on al. other Scottish lines.—Perth Classier. MONEY MARKET. SATURDAY EVENING. Public securities have been rather drooping to-day, in the absence, however, of any speculative activity. Console were sold as low as 854 for money, but they finally left off 86 ton for money and time. Thus the contango between money and time has been done away with already, after two days of existence only. The fact would seem to show that money, which during the settlement was more in demand, and com mended higher rates, has become more easy, so that, as before, no premium or interest in the shape of con tinuation has to be paid upon stock dealt in upon credit, or for time. Reduced Threes were 861 Three and-a-Quarter per Cents., 861 to!. Exchequer Bills, 31s. to 38s. premium, India Bonds, 28s. to 325. premium. Bank Stock, 197 to 9. The foreign market continues in the same inactive state, and transactions so few that few quotations can he accurately made as representing the rate at which business was or could be done. Mexicans were quoted 16} to 17. New Granada 11; to 126. Chilian, 83 to 6. Brazilian, 70 to 2. A bargain was done in ' Danish at 68, but the stock was still called 65 to 70. Dutch Two-and-a-Ilalf per Cents. were 43 to 4 ; the Fours, 69 to 71. Russian, 98 to 100. Spanish Fives, 11; to 12; the Threes, 214 to 2; Passive, 2; to 31. Portuguese, 17i to DM. For the information of parties purposing the in vestment of capital, or having property already so in vested, the following table has been constructed to show the rates of dividend which at the average pric.s of this day ve ould be yielded by the stock and share securities specified. It must be observed, how ever, that Reduced Three per Cents. carry one quarter of a year's interest more than Console, al ehoueh quoted at nearly the same price, and generally not obtaining more in the market. They are, pro tondo, the more advantageous investment by the 1,:":+. additional interest which is due upon them. Cons°, are preferred, and command a relatively higher rate, however, bee tuse, in the worst state of markets, always more readily saleable than other stocks, and therefore the wore peculiar and exclusive medium of sp culation. The calculation for London and North-Western shares is for this time continued upon the rate of dividend declared and paid till now. hereafter the reducet tate, proposed by the directors at the recent meeting of the proprietary, wilt be adopted as the basis.
