COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Boon Ms. CONNIMIONVII 1101.110 TD. IN ui THOMPSON. THIS DAY. Two o'Ciooz. The share market generally is a good deal better to-day, though no great movement is perceptible. The chief change in price is in Midlands, which have experienced a great rise, in consequence of a reported arrangement with the London and North Western company. Tho stock, which was done yesterday afternoon as low as 46!, has to-day been bought as high as 50, though it is now not quite so good, at 49; to London and North Westerns are also firmer, the reports of a friendly understanding between the great companies creating great satisfaction. Caledonians and York and North Midlands have likewise sensibly im proved, and London and South Westerns have touched 82 t. The traffic receipts on the London and Brighton 'Railway for the week ending the 18th inst., are, 11,857/. against 11,7707. in the corresponding week of last year, being an increase of 871. The South Eastern return amounts to 16,1871., being as increase of 2,0171. over 1850, when it w as 14,4701. SHAMA AND mucus UNOUAIANTEED. THIS DAY. Two O'CLOCK. Purchasers have continued to make their appear ance in the English stock market to-day, and, with the usual renewal of the weekly investments on account of the Sinking Fund, a further advance of , has taken place, at which prices remain firm, every department of the market wearing a healthy appearance. The usual Continental mailsbring no intelligence of much importance, but at Paris yes terday the Rentes showed nn upward tendency, and the market was characterised by more firmness than had been observable for some days. Consols opened as they left off yesterday, 971 to 1, and are now called 971 to „the rate for immediate delivery and the account of the 12th Nov. remaining identical. The official statement of the day's business is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, 971, 4; ditto for account, 974, ; Three ner Cent. Iteduced, 904, '4, ; New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cent., 98, 971, 981; Long Annuities, 1860, G 15.10, 17 ; ditto 30 years, 1859, 61 ; India Stock, 2621 ; Bank Stock, 2121, 213. There is not quite so much doing in Exchequer Bills, but the market is well supported, at the full advance lately established, Ms. to 51a. prem. being the range at which business is going forward. India Bonds meet with no inquiry, and the price remains nominally as before. No business of the least importance is offering in the foreign stock market, and prices remain sta tionary. Spanish Hoods are just a shade firmer than they were previous to the meeting, but there is little disposition to touch them. Sardinian Scrip marks 21 dis. Another instalment of 10 per cent. falls due to-day, and as this leaves only 25 per cent. still to be made up, at the rate of 10 per cent. next month, and the final 15 per cent. at the end of December, it ap pears probable that the market for this loan will assume a steadier appearance, and that the Bonds, which will soon begin to be more freely dealt in, will very soon realise a better figure. As compared with other stocks in which a large business is usually done in this market, it can not be denied that Sarilinian Five per Cent. Bonds are below their just value. At the rate of 83, they yield 61. ss. per cent. per annum; Dutch Four per Cent. at 891 yielding wily 4/. 95.; Russian Five per Cents., at 112, 4/. 9s. ; and Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. at 1011, 4/. Bs. Bargains have been concluded to-day as follows: Dutch Fair per Cent. Certificates, 891. Mexican Bonds, 261 ; ditto for account, 31st October, 264. Portuguese Four per Cents., 321, 1. Sardinian Scrip, 21 dis. Spanish Active Five per Cents., 201; ditto Three per Cents., 381,1. The subjoined calculations show the rate per cent. per annum yielded by the various securities cited at the average of the prices which ruled yesterday. Where the asterisk (*) is prefixed it is to be under ' stood that the share rate of interest is less the in come tax. It will be seen that in every case we take the rate of interest last declared as the basis of our calculation. To render the calculation strictly accu rate, the proportion of interest which may have accrued since last dividend period should, in each case, be taken into account: fkree per Cent. ennsols peso 171 yield per etot.S3 1 In roree per Cent. neoucoi New Iluee-antl*Quarter per Cents 9l 3 It 31 21 , 3 10 1 pliAltLY su HE l'H.—ltl) W LANDS' ()DONIt), ry.Ata DENTIVILICIL awhile wenn, compou•ded of tbe U. &.: ant cat rttleetbd IMindleute of the °newt berteL It intimate tartar funs lbs honk itIAWOII mem of Indiana decay, i w i net tail preserve , %beim mel, imparting the owl pun and pearl. 6u labium" mad One reenntee mid perfume to dr brwith. 0.. n, in by itt mean endlestsd from the tones, and s brainy aetis nt redeem are lodated ; SO that tbe ticat (tt inenr) are atm :.rat t haW sancta.

Decrease Oct. 4, 18:11 It was just about this period last year that tho stock of bullion in the Rank of England began to manifest a decided downward tendency, The accounts from the Californian mines, received by the Africa, are quite as encouraging ns those pre viously to hand. In the southern portion of the country machinery is being rapidly Put into opera tion, m a great measure under Mexican superin tendence. In the northern mines the same progress is observable, with the difference that the machinery is nearly all owned and worked by Americans. The results, in almost every instance, are described as satisfactory, sufficiently so as to induce numbers who had hitherto worked in the ordinary way to take to that description of mining. On the Feather and Yuba Rivers, and in the creeks between the two, a very , large number of men have settled themselves, and arc engaged in washing, and rich quartz veins had lately been discovered in that region, within afew miles of Marysville. The SUOMI Attending the quartz mining operations at Grass Valley, in Nevada County, was attracting a large degree of attention on the part of the San Francisco capitalists. In that single locality there are eight or ten mills in opera tion, crushing and washing from six to forty tons of rock per day, and every ono represented as "making money." A party writing from the spot observes:- 4 4 Those who anticipate or predict a fall ing off in our gold product know little of what they say, or of the immense treasures yet locked up within the bosom of the Sierras." 'rho accounts fruits the various workings adduce many instances of extraordinary success, both on the part of companies and individuals, but with the additional mechanical means now obtainable, it was noticed that the largest portion of the gains fell to the lot of associated parties. In one week the New York Damming Company took out 4,673 dots. The Ar kansas Company, nineteen in number, working near Gray Eagle, obtained 19,000 dole. in three days. Companies with al . led number of shares, and also a restricted working staff, were rapidly forming. Letters from Montreal, confirming the accounts previously published by us, state that the auriferous regions to the south of Quebec, on the waters of the Etehemin and Chaudiere, yield a moderate quantity of gold. There are two or three companies working in different sections, and they pay their expenses ; beyond that they cannot boast of much success. The auriferous district extends into the north westerly portion of the state of Maine, and according to tho report of Mr. Logan, the provincial geologist, it in cludes a section of the eastern township.

The Minn( outside, and the statues within, the roof, the ceiling, the Corinthian capitals, are all of papier.machi: , , rendered waterproof, by saturation in vitriol, lime-water, whey, and white of egg. We have not yet reached this pitch of audacity, iu our use of paper ; but it should hardly surprise us, inasmuch as we employ the same material in private houses, in steam-boats, and in some public buildings, instead of carved decorations and plaster cornices. When Frederick the Second of Prussia set up a limited papier-macW manufactory at Berlin, in 1761, he little thought that paper cathedrals might, within a century, spring out of his snuff-boxes, by the sleight-of hand of advancing art. At present, we old.fashioae•d Eng lish, who haunt cathedrals, and build churches, like stone better. But there is no saying what we may come to. It Is not very long since it would have seemed as impossible to cover eighteen acres of ground with glass as to erect a pa goda of soap bubbles ; yet the thing is done. When we think of a psalm sung by one thousand voices pealing through an edifice made of old rags, and the universal element bound down to carry our messages with the speed of light, it would be presumptuous to say what can, and what can not, be achieved by Science and Art, under the training of steady old Time.—Dickens's Ilomachold Words." ii 1 ii SS ii •I GA SO SO i , i-i* ;Lo. 41151;0701174,Di/Krrel Do. 4 ' , burr, 11, 6 perCt Gtilouth. t - trul WeM.

From the following paragraph in the Limerick elinmirle it would appear that the Chun unions have not experienced so much clemency as was supposed : A litter from the commissioners to the Tulla guardians cans that in consequence of errors in the return of the wain atiim on which the annuities have been calculated, they her, in pursuance of instructions from the treasury, r-cindud the annuities' order issued on the 14th August, but that they will inane another order on a correct return of thevaluation. The Killadysert union guardians hase re tu sign the rate book with the annuities added, and directed their clerk to prepare the rate estimated by the board (excluding the annulus sh The billowing moderate letter has been written by the Earl of Donoughmore with reference to the pro sincial guardians meeting at Limerick :- 3, Upper Mount-street, Dublin, Oct. 15.

In conclusion, 1 would suggest to the guardians that their principal efforts should be directed towards the organisation of • strong issirty to advocate the !AMC of the Irish ratepay ers in the nest session of parliament, and to obtain such a modification 14 the existing law as will not utterly crush the farmers who still remain in the country .—I remain, air, your obedient servant, DoNOCOUXOKII.

Another painful accident with tire-arms has taken place in t'avan, causing the death of George Hinds, Es M.D., who was shot accidentally by John baker. q. Esq., J.P., of Ashgrove, at Ramfield, near illtaliandra, the residence of the deceased's brother, on Thuralay night. 'lle Mayor of Limerick presided on Friday at a numerous and influential meeting, held at the Cham ber of Commerce, for the purpose of forwarding the project of a line of railway from Limerick to Foynes. The Earl of Dunraven, William Nlonsell, ALP., Wyndham Goold, M.P., Sir Matthew Barringtom the president and members of the Chamber of Como 'nerve, Messrs. Robert White, and 11. W. Massy, directors of the Waterford and Limerick Railway, attended, and after canvassing the matter, it was agreed to write to all Igo-ties interested requiring their co-operation, and upon receipt of their replies to nominate a provisional committee to carry out dm great object in view, and which there is little doubt will be successful. The truffle of the line was ordered tube taken, and the necessary survey made, to be in a position to go before parliament next emeinn. The following is from the weekly commercial article of the Freeman:— _ _ _ ....... . Our produce markets show an activity to which they have long been strangers, and an advance has taken place in s. vend descriptions of imports. Deliveries have also been very good, and prices seem to have reached their lowest for this season, while the trade are all scantily supplied with stocks. In shares a very fair business has been dine; but there is not, with the exception of mining shares, any disposition to speculate. The fearful tide of emigration still continues, and increases so mach, as to cause general attention, and it cannot hut have its effect upon general business by depressing the country trade. Credit is very well supported, and money is abundant on good security, and not in much demand. The prospects for the winter's trade arc, on the whole, encourag ing. The very low prises of grain must, notwithstand ing the good harvest, tend to depress land and the prospects of agriculturists. Prices, however, have not, in all proba bility, yet seen their lowest. The tidings of the potatoes an still chequered, and the result precarious ; and except the fact that a considerable portion, probably a quarter to a third, are damaged, no near estimate can be made of the amount of the loss by di.ease. The customs' duties for the week are 17,6001., of which 6,9001. on tea, 3,8001. on to bacco, 2,9001. on raw and 6001. on refined sugar, 2,0001. on sine, and 7001. on spirits. The receipts for the correspond ing week of 18.10 were 18,2001., showing a decrease of 6001. The total receipts of this port fur the quarter ending 10th instant are 245,7161., against 238,1681. in 1850, showing an increase of 7,+x381. Not less than 10,0001. have been re ceived during the quarter on foreign refined sugar, an ar ticle almost new as a source of revenue here, and which has to a very considerable extent superseded the English manufacture MONDAY EVEN INO. The Errniny Mil has the following announcement with reference to the repayment of advances; but, it will be observed, the landlord organ acknowledges with an ill grace the favour intended by . government : We have reason to believe that the ministry have at length arrived at a determination as to the course they will adopt in reference to the forty-years' annuities impost. They will not consent to a general postponement of the claim; but they will take into consideration the mane and circumstances of the individual unions respectively, and in those in which they know an attempt to levy the money would not produce enough to pay the cost of making it, they will remit altogether a portion of the sum claimed. The details have, we understand, been submit ted to the consideration of Mr. Power, the Chief Poor Law Commissioner, and upon his report a Treasury minute will be framed.

The fact is, that no speculative purehwers come forward, and so soon as buyers fur consumption have secured suffi cient to guard against any immediate want, they contract their operations. This has, at all events, been tho course ciotied fur a considerable time past, and the millers seem sed to continue the ramp plan. he capital condition in which the new wheathashitherto mem forward has induced rather free purchases, and wo believe that mast of the country, as well as the principal metropolitan millers, hold 'pod stocks. It is, therefore, quite probable that a assail reaction may occur in prices ; but we do not look for my decline of moment, end are dis posed to think that after a temporary and slight fall the tendency of prices will he rather upwards in November and the early part of December, but about Christmas supplies may again prove in excess of demand. Farmers are naw actively engaged with ploughing and sowing, and out-door work will employ much of their time for another month ; the deliveries from the growers are, therefore, likely to be small during that period, and as it appears almost certain that no shipments of importance will be made from the northern continental ports before the spring of next yea r , prices can scarcely be expected to give way mask .z sg. the makes &mold far a time refesia from buying. The great depression which took place in the value of wheat immediate) y after harvest, and which continued till nearly the close of' September, was not caused altogether by the idea that the home crop would prove superabun dant, but rather owing to the belief that, whether wanted or nut, we should continue to receive large foreign supplies of breadstuffs. That the wheat harvest in Great Britain U. given a very good return is certain, but the yield is not so large as to warrant such prices as those lately accepted ; nor would farmers have been so anxious to realise but fur pecuniary pressure and fear of foreign imports. The average price of wheat is now only 31s. fid., or lowe r than it has been at any period the last 14 years. This is 4s. 6d. per qr. lower than the point we tiled as likely to be the average for the kingdom under free trade; and until we again approach 40s. per qr., the supplies from abrood will not, we think, be very abundant. The subdued tone of the advice. from Mark-lane of Mon day last appears to hare had more or less influence on the markets held in the early part of the week. At Liverpool, on Tuesday, buyers acted with extreme caution, and though choice parcels of white brought an advance of Id per 701b5., other descriptions barely sold so well as on that day se'nnight. The arrivals of flour at that port during the week ending the 13th inst. exceeded 21,000 barrels, and the article was consequently easier to buy on Tuesday. Later in the week the anxiety to sell increased, and both wheat and flour might have been purchased rather cheaper on Friday than on the preceding market day. The accounts from most of the other largo consuming towns in the north are of a similar character, and the ten dency of prices has also been downwards this week at the ' shipping ports on the east coast, were good 62 to 631br. ' Red wheat has been offered at 31s. to 335. per quarter with out meeting a free sale. The reports in reference to potatoes do not improve, and it is feared that a large proportion of those apparently sound when dug will rut in the pits. Ilithertu, however, the par tial failure of that useful root has produced no influence on prices of other kinds of food, and even Indian corn has not of late varied much in price. Our letters from Scotland say very little as to the result of the harvest in that part of the kingdom, from which we are disposed to conclude that there is not much to complain of. At Edinburgh, on Wednesday, the supply of new wheat was more than equal to the demand, and the turn was rather in favour of the buyer ; spring corn was, on the other hand, rather dearer, barley being quoted ls. and oats Gel per quarter higher than on that day se'nuight. The Glasgow market was not so well supphed • ith wheat on Wednesday, and prices ware quite as high as before. From Ireland we learn that the potatoes were not keep ing well in the pits; this was, however, causing less alarm than would have been the case but for the abundance and cheapness of Indian corn, oatmeal, and other articles suita ble for substitutes. The arrivals of wheat coastwise into the port of London have been moderate, only 4,38 qrs. having been reported up to this (Saturday) evening. A considerable proportion of this supply is from the east coast, and nearly the whole has g one direct into the hands of the millers, without sp. peering at market. Th.. quantity exhibited by lands carriage samples from Essex, Kent, and Suffolk, since Monday last, has been perfectly insignificant, notwith standing which some difficulty has been experienced in rew tieing previous rotes. The top quotation for town-manufactured flour has been ateosiily maintained, and other sorts have not been sold ' cheaper. The receipts of barley have not been large, and the i greater proportion of what has come to hand has consisted of secondary quality. The arrivals of oats coastwise have been scanty, and the I offers per rail have been less plentiful than of late. Peas having come forward sparingly, have brought very full terms, the advance of Monday being maintained up to ' the close of the week. _ _ _ Indian corn has been held with increased firmness, and must of the vessels which have arrived off the coast have been ordered to proceed to different ports to discharge; floating cargoes of Galata to arrive have brought rm. 3d., and ibraila 245. 6d. per qr., cost, freight, and insurance. THE FOREIGN CORN TRADE. Not the slightest influence seems to have been produced on the wheat trade in the Baltic by the tone of the advices from hence, and prices are relatively higher in that quarter than with us. The supplies of new wheat had, it appears, been inadequate to meet tho demand for the interior, and parcels of old in granary . had consequently been held very firmly. The defective yield of the rye crop, and the belief that the potatos would net keep, are the reasons assigned for the high value of wheat. Danzig letters, dated 14th instant, inform us that the purchases of wheat had not been extensive; the bargains cloaca had, however, been at very full prices. Low quali ties had met with more attention than the finer kinds, and equal to 375. to 375. 6d. per qr. free on board had been paid for ordinary mixed, weighing only 601 b.. per bushel. Fine mixed Upper Polish wheat in granary, of 621 be. weight, had nut been sold below 395.; and Lower Polish, of 6116., had been held at 38e. per qr. free on board. One small lot of find new had appeared, weighing 61 to 621bs. per bushel, which had realised equal to 40s. per qr. free on board. Three vessels had been char tered for Amsterdam, and it was believed that the pur chases of the common aorta of wheat had been for Dutch account. Hardly anything was being shipped for Ragland; a vessel had, however, some days before, been taken up for London at 2s. 4d. per qr. Advises from Konigsberg, of the 11th instant, inform us that the general result of the harvest in that neighbour hood was not considered satisfactory, the quality of the grain having suffered a good deal by the cluing, able weather experienced while the cern was in the fields. The common runs of red would not, it wu expected, weigh more than 64 to 691b5., and few lots would, it was thought, exceed 60Ibs. per bushel. The white wheat having been better se cured than the red, would be heavier, probably 60 to fillbs. per bushel. Old high mixed, 60 to 611b5., was then quoted 375. to 395. ; new, of the same weight, 375. 6d. to 395. 6d. ; old red, 60 to 611 b. 36e. 36e. to 375. ; new, CA} to 601 b.., Me. to 36e. per qr. frescos hoard. Rye had been in lively request, and had realised equal to 295. to 30s. 6d. per qr. free on board. W From Stettin we have advice' dated October 13, further purchases having been made of wheat for Berlin and Sax ony ; the extreme rates of the previous week had been sus tained ; yellow Silesian having realised equal to 361. 6d., and Pomerania red 375. 6d. to 38s. per qr. free on board. The prices asked for spring delivery had been quite as high, say 375. 6d. per qr. free on board for 611ba. yellow Stettin. Barley had been freely taken for the interior, and Glib. OderbnWs had brought rates which would bring the price free on board to Ms. 6d. per qr. Freight to London was only 2s. per qe. At Hamburg, on Twooday, hulas. was satire, some spe culative purchases of wheat hauls* lima made for delivery in spring ; altogether contracts for aboutl3,ooo qrs. had been closed sines the previous post-day, and for good 611bs. red, to be shipped from Pomerania sad Mecklenburg, equal to 395. per qr. free on board had bean paid. Barley had also been in good request, about 10,000 qrs. having been bought chiefly on Dutch and Boletus asmant, to bo delivered in October and November. Fair roil 63 to 641bs, Danish, 20s. 9d. to 21s. per qr. free an bard lad bum paid.

ESCAPE PROM TCLLAMORE GAOL.—Tom Smith, a native of Westmeath, who had been in Tullamore Gaol under a sentence of twelve months for larceny, contrived to give the officers of that institution a great dial of trouble, While in prison, one of his first feats was to break open the store and appropriate to himself a quantity of spirits and brandy, never intended fur Tom Smith by the hoard of Supenntendence. Not considering this deed sufficient to win himself a name, he bade farewell to the governor and turnkeys, and lett them to supply his loss, or account for his disappearance, as best they may. Where Mr. Tom Smith may next turn up it is hard to say ; it would not be out of keeping with his general character if he'd present himself at the gaol gates some fine morning, if it were only for the purpose of trying his skill at escaping a second time. —Leinster P.:rpress. -- - EXTRAORDINARY CASE.—On the Ist of December, 1824, Lieutenant It. W. Croker, late of the 13th Light' Infantry, or Prince Albert's Own Regiment, received a wound from a musket shot at the storming of Rangoon, in the Burmese empire. The hall lodged in the hone of the right leg under the knee, and remained there until the 2nd instant, causing the most excruciating and incessant pain. Owing, however, to the care and skill of Sir Philip Crampton, Bart., the Surgeon General, Mr. Croker has been released from his sufferings. The ball has been most skilfully extracted by that eminent surgeon, and presents a most extraordinary appearance. It was half opened by the force with which, it struck the bone, and it is partly covered with a hard ossiferous substance mixed with iron.— Saunders 's 'Veto Letter. GOVERNMENT ANNVITIES.—Acrounts are opened in the Bank of Ireland, Carlow, with every division of this union, in reference to the government annuities and relief advances. On the first day, out of a lodgment of 571., on account of the divisions for which the rates had been struck, only a sum of 101. goes to the credit of the union, the balance, 471., being taken by the Lords of the Trea sury, under a sealed order of the Poor-law Commissioners. It has been clearly ascertained that the new town division requires ♦ sum of 11. 55. in the pound to meet its liabilities ; nevertheless, the division is charged with its proportionate amount of annuities.—Carlow Sentinel. DISTRESSING SUICIDE AT NOTEINCHAM.—On Tucs- day great sensation was excited in the neighbourhood of Menton-street, Nottingham, by a rumour that Mr. James Beardsley, a highly respectable chemist, had committed suicide. Mr. Beardsley left home on Tuesday morning for the purpose of going to his garden at Menton, and in the afternoon his wife and eldest daughter went to join him. Having arrived at the g.irden, near the summer-house they I discovered the unfortunate gentleman suspended from the roof. Every assistance was rendered, but it proved of no avail, life was extinct. There is no doubt that temporary derangement was the cause of this rash act. THE NEW HALTING PLACE," FARRlNGDON sinarr.—Another " halting place," or lodge for public convenience, companion to the one already in use at the Fleet-street end of Farringdon-street, has been erected at the Holborn end of the latter street. Similar oracular in scription' are engravers on the new lodge to those obser vable on the one which for some months past the London porters and others have been accommodated with, much to their comfort and convenience. The word " halt" is let tered iu black on the gas lamps surmounting the roof of the new lodge, while along two sides of the walls of the small building these sentences aro inscribed: " Rest, but do not loiter." 2. "Do not leave your goods." SOL'TLI WALES RAILWAT.—PEMBROKE, OCT. 18.— Mr. Brunel arrived in this neighbourhood yesterday, for the purpose of selecting a site for the terminus of the South Wales Railway. He has both yesterday and to-day, in the Cambria steamer, been all over the haven, taking the soundings of every eligible spot, and will return to London to-night, to make known his decision to the directors. In all the investigations that have taken place both by himself and Capt. Clayton, regard has been had to depth of water sufficient to accommodate steamers of the transatlantic ton nage, for it is fully expected that as soon as the line reaches the shores of Milford Haven, that port will be the station for those packets. Its advance of Liverpool—some 6.5 marine leagues—will ensure its preference to that port, and the avoiding any disembarkation, and consequent second embarkation, its priority over all Irish ports. CALEDONIAN RAILWAY.—The amount of compen sation in respect of certain lands in the barony of Gorbals, belonging to the city of Glasgow that have been taken under the compulsory powers of their act by the Caledonian Railway Company, who have deposited a Mil of 20,0001. to meet the claim, has been referred to the determination of Mr. Anderson, banker, and Mr. J. Horne, land valuer of Glasgow. Th e extent of land taken is 48,431 square yards. The city claims lbs. a yard, and the railway company con tends that it is only worth 6s. a yard. IN REFERENCE TO THE MARTIN ESTATES in Gal way, their acquisition was strenuously recommended to a great capitalist, by a party who said the whole could be had for 40s. an sere in fee simple, or at a price of 600,0001. The reply was characteristic and instructive—. I can buy the whole at 20s. en acre, or for 250,0001.; but who will guarantee me a maximum poor rate, or insure against the whole being swallowed up in feeding sturdy beggars 1" Limerick Chronicle. A PROSPEROCS OOLD-DIGGER.—The wretched ness of gold-hunters in the rich field of California is by this time a hackneyed theme. Taira now, the picture of a tole rably prosperous goldseeker is Brasil.

On comparing the above returns with the fixed issues of the several banks, we find the following to be the state of the circulation : _ _ The fixed issues of the private banks of England and Wales being at present, after deducting those which have ceased to issue, 4,698,0751., it follows they were below the amount 1,371,2161. The fixed issues of the joint-stock banks being 3,409,9871., it follows they were below the amount 724,928!. The fixed issues of the Scotch banks being 3,087,2091., it follows they were above the amount 78,8941., but with specie in hand to cover the ex cess, and issues for 607,1G41. besides. The fixed issuesof the Irish banks being 6,334,4941., it follows they were below the amount 2,138,6891., with specie in baud to cover issues for 1,074,7431. more. _ _ We find, therefore, that the note circulation of the private and joint stock banks of England and Wales was 2,096,144/. below the amount authorised to be issued; and that, inclusive of Scotland and Ireland, the circulation was, on balance, 4,155,6391. below the fixed amount. The average amount of coin and bullion held by the Bank of England in both departments dwing the four weeks ending the 4th Oct. was 14,781,6221., showing an increase on the previous month's return of 517,2631. - The average stock of specie held by the Irish banks during the same period was 1,074,7431., being a decrease on the return for the previous four weeks of 85,9401. The average of specie held by the Scotch banks during the same term was 746,0581.; decrease on the previous month, 18,1801.
