This moroinf Mr. John Humphreys, Middlesex corooer, held an =miry at the London Hospital respecting the death of Hoary Goodeon, aged 35, who was killed by • pamengsr . train on the Great Eastern Railway, under very arrcircumstances. Ashley, solicitor, attended on behalf of the railway "Vr y. . Congaed said that on Wednesday last demised and four other men were engaged in shifting a track laden with flour ou to • siding at the Brick-lane goods station. The truck was being brought from the " hoist " at right angles to the siding. and • structure of wood faced with iron was planed tostv trocknand prevent their running on to the main has. Demand stepped over that structure, and the truck's buffs:struck him in the side. He was sent forcibly wind' the 1 o'clock up-train. The carriage struck him in tins tape, and he was might up and whirled along for eight or ten yards. He received fearful injuries to the hied and body, and died almost directly. h. Ashlci showed plans, and produced witimeme so prove that was killed in consequence of stepping over the structure oa to the main line, instead of stepping on one side. The jury returned • verdict of "Death by misfortune." " It is understood," says the Times, " that the government of the United di tea have resolved to seed an agent to this oanotry versed is maritime sod internatioeal law to co-operate with Mr. Adam., the American minister in London, in the consideration of the various questions now arising or likely to miss on those points between the two countries.

The section in question will consomme at Fayet, a mull village situated among the trees below Saint Gervais, and will stop at the hills at Servos. From that point the road, instead of ascending, will run along the Arve, and arrive at Chamounix without any sensible gradient. The rock which Mande on the opposite side at the foot of the bills, and which forms a barrier at the bottom of the valley, will be mined to give passage to the road.

MONEY MARKET.-(THI6 DAY.) Two dews.. The stock marketa to-day are decidedly buoyant, money being abundant and cheap, and the weather very fine, and a more favourable view being taken of the immediate course of foreign politics. Tne funds have again risen I per cent., and most of the principal English railways have advanced. Foreign stocks, however, continue to show more buoyancy than any other class of securities. The scrip of the Confederate Loan has improved to if to 21 prem., while that of the Italian Loan is rather flatter, at if to 2 prem. The scrip of the Turkish Loan is quiet, at If to If prem.

A further great advance La s taken place in Spanish Passive Bonds, which are last marked 361. New Grenadian, Mexi can and Portuguese Bonds of 1862, are all materially higher. The Turkish Loans of 1858 and 1862 have risen to per cent., the Consolidde, 1 per coat, and Greek, 1.

Haxr-ranr Two o'CLoox. COO/4018 close at 934 to both for money and the 7th of May. At Paris the rate of discount in the open market is 34 per cent. ; Vienna, 5; Hamburg, 24; Turin, 41; Frankfort, 24; Amsterdam, 4; Berlin, 3i; Brussels, 3; and St. Petersburg, 5 per cent. About 90,0001. in gold was sent into the Bank yesterday. There is some inquiry for gold for exportation to the Continent, in consequence of the less favourable tendency of the exchanges. The steamer Atrato will take to-day 16,441/. in gold, and 1591. in silver, for the West Indies. The steamer Ceylon will take on the 4th instant only 43,4241. in specie for the East, of which 1,3301. is gold, and thereat silver. Nearly the whole is for the Straits and China, the amount for India being only 1,3301. The bar silver by the Shannon, from the West Indies, was sold yesterday for Holland, at se. lid. Per ounce, showing a fractional advance. The drooping tendency of the continental exchanges contributes to give firmness to the silver market. The Mexican dollars have not yet been disposed of. A meeting of the Spanish Certificate holders is convened by the committee for Thursday next, at the London Tavern, to consider the present state of the question. The subscriptions for the 20,000 shares of the London Financial Association (Limited) have already reached 22,000 shares. It is expected that a notice respecting the closing of the list will be issued early next week. We have received a copy of the prospectus of the Mercantile Union Assurance Company (Limited). This is a reconstruction of a project which was re cently brought forward for similar objects, lied which achieved for itself some celebrity on the Stock Exchange. On the present occasion, how ever, the objectionable elements appear to have been studiously eliminated. In any case, the establishment of the company seems to be assured, as, in the event of the response on the part of the public being less than is anticipated, the directors and their friends have already signified their intention of taking 7,000 or 8,000 shares out of the first issue of 10,000. The board is a purely mercantile one, and its members occupy a respectable position. We understand that Mr. Septimus Ledward, of the firm of Mather, Ledward, and Co., of Liver pool, has joined the direction of the Alliance Bank of London and Liverpool. From the fifth annual report of the directors of the Chartered Mercantile Bank of India, London, and China, to be submitted at the meeting on the 19th inst., we extract as follows : The directors have the pleasure of preasoting to the shareholders the audited balance-sheet and profit and loss account of the bank for the year ended 31st Dec. last. I After providing for all bad and doubtful debts, and de. I fraying expense of management at all prints, the net profit amounts to 94,2281. 14e. ld., to which has to be added a sum of 401.151. Id. undivided profit brought forward from the preceding year, reeking a total of 94.269/. 9s. 2d. Out of the above total 50,0u0/. haa beer. paid in two half-yearly dividends, making together 10 per cent. on the paid-up capital of the bank. A further sum of 40,000/, hail been added to the reserve fund. The noapproprinted balance of 4,2694. 9a. 2d. is carried forward to the profit and lees account of the current year. The reserve fund now amounts to 100,0001., of which 60.0001. is inverted in Indian government securities as in timated in the last report, and it is the intention of the court to invest the balance, 40,00 W., in public securitien es opportunities offer. Arrangenieste have been made with Charier Name, chartered accountant, Edie. , burgh, to act as asset for the bank there, for the receipt of deposit money. and the conduct of such other business as re- quired. The reserve fund being now completed to 20 per east, on the paid-up capital of the bank, as required by the deed of eettlement, and the badmen of the bank heg largely extended, the shareholders will be invited to revise clause 113, with a view to increase the remusentios at pre sent fixed for the directors. The ninth annual meeting of the Briton Medical and General Rife Association was held on the 30th April, at 429, West Strand ; Dr. (I. H. Barlow occupied the chair. The report was read by Mr. John Moment, the secretary, and detailed the pro gress of the association during the past year. 2,810 ls had been received for assuring 653,238/ ; 1 2 4 ,Z e ;olicies had been issued. The new income wu 15275/. 13s. 6d.., being more than 50 per oeut. over the income of the previous year 40,46% 4d. had been carried to the reserve fund. Other proofs of progress were given, and the share and policy holders present were much gratified at the position which the society has attained. The chairman lucidly explained the peculiar features of the office, paying a tribute of respect to the medical profession, and referring to the industry and energy of their secretary, to whom the present succesaof the institution is mainly due. A divi dend of 6 per cent. was declared. The Caledonian Railway traffic return shows this week au increase of 1,030/. over last year. A general meeting of the shareholders in the Italian Irrigation Canal Company is convened for the 30th hut at Turin. Vioe-Chancellor Kiudersley proposes, on the Bth inst., to make a call of 5/. pershare on the con tributories of the British Provident Life and Fire Assurance Society. MINES.-(T1118 DAY.) Two o'Cuxi. The mining market is rather active today, with an increased amount of business. East Basset shares are in demand, and have improved 41. 10s., the present quotation being 92 to 94. East Carsdon are also rather better, at 40 to }, and Drakewalls are inquired for. Wheel Seta), on the other hand, are very heavy, and have declined to 255 to 260. United Mexican Mining shares are still inquired for. Yudanamutana are rather dull.
