The South Sea Company had not signified any went within the period allowed, and the object of the act is to extend the lame, and to give proprietors of certain stock the right of voting. The South Sea Company, under the present act, may commute on their stock belonging to proprietors disabled from voting at general courts. The company, if authorised to undertake private trusts, may commute for the purpose of forming a guarantee fund. The Treasury is now empowered, before the 2.3 th December seat, to appoint the time within which the assents of the company to commute are to be signified, and are to fie the terms of the commutation. On the Exchequer bonds given, it is declared that on their becoming redeemable, the in terest is to be paid on the half-yearly days until the actual redemption. OPENING or me DEESIDE RAILWAY.—This little line, which runs between Aberdeen and Banchory, a dis• twice of 18 miles, was publicly opened on Wednesday last, when a large party of the directors, shareholders, and friends dined together at Banchory. From the beauty of the scenery, as well as the fine agricultural country through which the line passes, there seems every likelihood of this being a very prosperous undertaking. Two facts connected with the formation of this railway may be no. heed from the circumstance that we but too seldom hear of similar instances weaning in railway management-- namely, that it has been projected and will be finished within the estimate named in the prospectus; also, that the contractors were ready to hand the line over to the di rectors on the day named at the commencement. The first turf was cut on the 2nd of July last year, so that the line has been constructed in little more than twelve months. 110 111 xd 2$ 110 icl 07 SS zd IQ Hi u 27 109 id N 0 xd =Le eLJACWJaaL) eel Zed= _QuiekleSlsigt.6 Dart $ Si IN 103 bowl to lootetiolits Do.

On the 23rd January but the wife of • small farmer named Michaud, found the water in the fountain covered with a white subetance resembling Hour. Leading to and from the fountain were the marks of the footsteps of a man—and these marks cemed at Benoist's garden. They resembled in size and form those which would have been made with his wooden shoes. These circumstances caused him to be suspect d ; and the suspicion became stronger when it was remembered that he entertained strong enmity to a farmer named Purest', the nearest neighbour of Michaud, who also made use of the fcuntain. Os being tasted the water was found to be bitter in taste, and it caused a painful contraction of the mouth and throat. A chemical elimina tion was made of it, and it turned out to be full of arsenic. Marks of footsteps were found in his own garden, in con tinu►tion of those from th.. fountain, and his wooden shoes exactly fitted them. He was then arrested, and when in gaol, he said to a Sister of Charity who attended him:— "My sister, it was I who poisoned the fountain !" He added that he had done it as an act of vengeance against his neighbour Pease°, who bad commenced a prosecution against him for an assault. The jury declared him guilty with extenuating circumstances, and the court condemned him to 20 years' hard labour.

The report by the directors to thehalf-yearly general meeting at the company, to be held at Glasgow, With Sep tember, as follows: The roretthe for the half year to 31st July, 1853, is not Inferior to that of the preceding six months, but the addi tional number of miles run, advanced rate of wages, and higher prices of materials, have considerably augmented the working charges. On a comparison, however, with the **responding period of 18.52, the per claim e of expendi bare is very little Increased. The Nuance for division is 47,2341. 11.. 2d.; of this the preference stock dividend Woes, 15,618/. 15s. 75. ; leaving 31,5851, 15e. 7d. ; out of which tha directors fee mound payment of a dividend oa the ordinary stock at the rate of 2 per cent. per annum, 31,0201. 10'.; carrying over to next account, 565/. 51. 7d. The reduction of the passenger fares on the Greenock line has fully realised the expectations of the directory, the drawings having exceeded by 3,5001 those of the cone. spending six months of lest year; and this notwithstanding some imperfections in the steamboat service in connexion with the :rain., which it is intended shall be remedied next lemon. list on the whole the experiment has been suer cessfal. A good deal of siding and other accommodation has been provided, but much remains to be done to meet the requirements of the growing traffic, end it has been bond afteseery to sanction a further expenditure of about I 45 ,000/. fir terminal and other important stations. The most eonsiderable of thole immediately to be executed will ke atCarstairs Junction, when the traffic converges from all point., and where the want of adequate accommodation has long been seriously felt. The directors have been scrupuluu.ly careful to avoid any expense that could be spared, with due regard to the trade, and they believe ambleg has been incurred or ordered which will not con duce to the better and more economical working of the raiiway. Additional plant has been placed upon the line at a cent of 26,000/., and more is being supplied as fast as it can be turned out; but the traffic *trews so rapidly that the greatest exertions are required to keep p.ce with it. The original goods agency contract having terminated on the 31st of July, a five years' cartage Mffeement has been entered into with Mews. Pickford and o. of L'ndon, and Mr. George Gordon, of Glasgow. The arrangement is calculated to effect a considerable saving of expense, and it promises generally to work well. All the renewal. of debentures during the lialf.year have been effected at 3i per cent. By the settlement of the disputes with the Dundee and Perth, and the Glasgow General Ter minus Companies, are terminated all law suits which have been eendimi between the Caledonian and ether rail ray companies. The instructions of the general meet ing of the 15th of June last are being carried out the msnagement and wor ki ng o f t h e C aledonian and Edinburgh and Glasgow railways being now in the hands of one set of officers, directed by • joint committee of the two boards. The traffic is thus regulated fairly in terms of the agreement; and the experience already gained war rants every confidence in the alliance, as a beneficial mea sure for both concerns. The Haymarket Junction at the Edinburgh end has been nearly completed, and the Edin burgh and Glasgow Company mean to proceed at once with the coesecting branch at Oissgow.

The market for home mining stocks to-day has I been in a very depressed state, and where sales are 1 1 pressed, lower prices must be submitted to.

General depression again prevailed to-day through out the Stock Exchange, the upward tendency of money, and the effinx of gold still aggravating the adverse influence exercised by the Russo-Turkish quarrel. The funds have experienced a further fall of per cent., and closed without recovery. The railway market has been in a state of panic nearly all day, and also closed at its worst point, 1. e., at a fall of 3 and 4 per cent. and upwards in some cases. Large sales of pawned railway stock have been effected to-day and during the last week, and the " bears " are thus encouraged to press sales in every direction. Consols opened 961 to ; for money, and 96: to a for the 13th October, being a further reduction of a per cent. on Saturday's rates. Sales were effected as low as 961 per cent., and the closing official quota tion at 3 o'clock was 961 to a i and 96 1 to a re spectively. Immediately afterwards the market be came unsteady at 96 to for time, but tho final quotation at 4 o'clock was 961 to a. The transac tions in Consols have been numerous, the other stocks being shut. The official report includes— Three per Cent. Consols, for; money, 96Z, 1,1, a, 1, tl ; ditto for account, 13th October, 961, f, ' I, 0 1 ; Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. 991 ; Long Annuities, 1860, 5 13-16; India Stock, 253, 254.1. Exchequer Bills were rather lower to-day, at 3s. dia. to par. India Bonds were flat, at par to ss. prem. - Foreign stocks were generally quoted at a reduc tion, but rather from sympathy with the general depression of the Stock - Exchange than from actual business, the account in this market being very limited. Mexican and Peruvian have again given way, but Spanish is comparatively steady. At 4 o'clock Mexicali Bonds were quoted 251 to 2 „ Peruvian Deferred, 56 to 58 ; Spanish Deferred, 221 to e ; the Committee's Certificates, 51 to 61 per cent. ; Granada Active, 22 to 23; ditto Deferred, 91 to Tho list of sales includes :—Brazilian Old Five per Cent. Small Bonds, 1021; ditto, Four and-a-Half per Cents., 1852, 98; ditto Five per Cents., 1829 and 1839, 1011. Dutch Two-and-a- Half per Cents., 64 t, 3, 3. Granada Deferred Bonds, 91, I, 1. Mexican Three per Cents., 26L 1. Peruvian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 79, 78 ex div. Portuguese_ Four per Cents., 44, /. Russian Five per Cents., 115, 1141 ex div. • ditto Four-and a-Half per Cents., 101, 3 . Sar dinian Five per Cents., 94, 3. Spanish Old Three per Cents., 461, 47; ditto New Deferred Three per Cents., 22, ; the Committee's_ Certifs., 61, 8 per cent. Money tacky was again in active demand. The leading discounters are understood, in the case of really first-class paper, to grant accommodation at the Bank minimum rate of 4 per cent. ; but in some instances 41 and upwards is charged, and in all cases there is a tendency to exact higher rates on inferior paper. There was a renewed demand to-day for gold for remittance to the Continent. The arrival was to-day reported of three vessels from Australia, viz., the Kent from Port Philip, the Cornhill from Ho bart Town, and the Ann Mile from Portland Bay. The Kent brings over 26,263 ounces of gold, valued at about 106,0001. The Cornhill is also understood to have gold on board. The Alba tross has likewise arrived at Liverpool from Mel bourne, but we have at present no further particulars respecting her. We are enabled to state that policies of insurance have been opened on the steamer which will leave Hull for St. Petersburg in the middle of this week for the large sum of 400,0001. in gold, so far as we can ascertain. Probably further sums will be de spatched by the same opportunity. What amount of gold the London steamer will carry out to the same quarter cannot yet be ascertained ; but this medium of remittance is not such a favourite, owing to the London packet calling at a French port on her out ward voyage. The exchange from Odessa comes higher, viz., at 21.26 per pound sterling, equal to 390. per silver rouble at St. Petersburg. Should this exchange continue to rise, there would be less disposition to send gold from this side ; but at present rates such an opera- 1 tion pays well, the rate of 39d. leaving a margin of profit on the shipment of gold from England to St. Petersburg. In explanation of this movement of the Odessa exchange, it is suggested that large sums of money must have been remitted from St. Petersburg to Odessa to buy bills ; other wise, with so large a business doing at the latter port in produce, the exchange would probably have experienced a further decline, instead of rising. This operation, as between St. Petersburg and Odessa, would have been a profitable one. The expense of sending money between these two points of Russia is about # per cent. The America has brought in 127,569 dollars, or about 25,500/. sterling, from Now York, the ex. change having become slightly more favourable for this country. _ - In consequence of the unusually large arrivals of grain from the north of Europe the corn market to- day was quiet. Prices, however, may be reported steady, there being no disposition to sell at reduced rates. Fair qualities of wheat were more in demand, the condition of the new wheat of English growth being very indifferent. For floating cargoes stiff prices are demanded. The tallow market to-day was very firm. The closing price of Russian tallow, for delivery in the' ; last three months of the year, was 335. Hamburg letters of the 9th, report a rise in the rate of discount to 4} per cent., owing to the drain of silver from the bank of that city. The exchanges on London and Paris were lower. The last steamer from Lubeck to St. Petersburg had taken 13,000 half imperials, and 23,0001. worth of silver; and the letters state that the next steamer would carry to Russia double that amount of silver, and no less than 350,000 half imperials, or about 288,0001. in gold. Coffee was in active speculative demand. The corn market was dull, and the French orders for buying wheat were said to have been withdrawn. Funds and shares were flat. A sixth dividend, amounting to Bs. per share, falls payable on the shares of the Patent Alkali Company on the 4th October. Miscellaneous stocks were generally very heavy to day. Australian Agricultural fell 3!., closing 27 to 29. Peel River were quoted at 4 o'clock a to dis. ; South Australian Land, 28 to 30; and Van Dieman's Land, 13 to 15. Bank shares were also very heavy. Australasia and South Australian fell 2!. per share. All other stocks of a miscellaneous nature were similarly depressed, and in many cases, virtually unsaleable. Berlin Waterworks mark 10s. dis. Crystal Palace shares closed to 11 prem. Annexed are the latest reports from continental bourses, as received by Mr. Renter's express : Amsterdam, Saturday, closing prices :—Dutch Four per Cents., 95k; ditto Two-and-a-Ralf per Cents ~ 63 ; Spanish Dela% cd Three per Cents., 221; th e Coupons, 61; Austrian Five per Cent.

The English stock market opened with increased heaviness this morning, and sales have been pressed at a great reduction in price, but a sensible rally has since taken place. Consols opened 931, to 96 for money, have since been sold as low as 95a, and are now quoted 951 to 96 for cash, and 96 to for the 13th October. The con tango to the account has increased to-day.
