Ossratm. rA :, aurn is ready bo ADV, slitswasmk m.r.r* Se car. silo; Mr. Lawrence, surgeon, who attended the prisoner during I her confinement, deposed to her being delivered of a small, but h. lathy, female child; and also to his having seen a gentleman at the house, whom he understood to be, and ad dressed as Mr. Slater. Mr. Crosby, who was sitting at the table, was here identified by the witness an being that sew tleman. Witness was called in on the 12th Seglathee see the child. It was much thinner than whoa he UN it last. It had lost flesh, and the skin was w art iNatei from the loss of subcutaneous (at. The child was she' suffering from what appeared to be whitensouth ; the pulse was sharp, and about 120 beats in • m i nu te. Ile examined the mouth, in which there were two, small liken on the gums, where the two upper canine' , teeth usually appear. There was ahu a peculiar *4 l appearance about the lips and the osseous membrane et the mouth, but more particularly on the lips, which he had not usually observed consequent in whitemouth. also examined the buttocks of the child, and found en eruption there which came forward to the lowest past a the bowels. It had not the appearance of the uniform nose attending ordinary cases of diarrhcca. lie prescribed for diarrhea. Witness saw the child Ull consecutive days up to the Ibth inclusive. It wan getting better. Un the Alth he saw it again in the presence ut the Filo:incr. She seemed vexed about the child, and wept over it, and wished him to attend it. She asked his opinion, end he re plied that the child had been very ill, but that he had no doubt of its ultimate recovery. She then, leaning over the child, said same words to this effect My dear, I must Mr. showing bowels were upon eruptions on the buttocks had returned. The whitemouth had also returned again very badly, and the skin of the body was much shrivelled. He prescribed as fur a case of irritation of the stomach and bowels, but not as fur diarrhira. The neat morning be was with the child fur two hours, during which time it had no symptoms of vomiting, and appeared better. He saw it again the same (Tuesday) evening, and it was then worse in every respect than it had been before. It was constantly retching, its costa• tenanee more anxious, and the skin of the toms, and mouth covered with the white eruption similar to whit,. mouth. The pulse was about 120, small and wiry, indi cating extreme irritation of the constitution. lle saw nothing in the state of the child on Tuesday morning to lead hint to expect to find it so ill in the evening, but quite the contrary. If lie had had no previous knowledge of the history of the child he would have been quite unable to account for its increased illness that evening. They were such symptoms as would, in his opinion, have re sulted from some irritant having been administered. Ha had omitted to mention that on the 30th of September he noticed a pccular rash on the body of the child ; it wax covered with spots as though a flea had been biting it. The spots were on the child now, but were only to be seen by ce inspection. Each pimple had a depression in the cen tre of it. Dr. Davies's attention was called to the eruption by witness, and everything had been done by them to save the child's life. He had seen the child this morning, sad it appeared as if it would die before the day was over. The waness deposed to receiving the prepared tests from Mrs. Searle (as stated by her), and to some crystals hating been obtained front them upon their being analysed by himself and Mr. Tyler, which crystals were subse quently proved by Mr. Ilerapath to be arsenic. As wit ness was going to Bristol on Tuesday morning ho met the prisoner at the railway station. She appeared very excited, and said she had received a letter from Mrs. Searle that morning, stating that the child was very ill. She said, " Mrs. Searle says you have taken away one of the teats; what did you do that for ?" Ile replied that there was something peculiar about it which he wished to see. She then said, " What do you think of the child I" He replied that it had been very ill for the last day or two, but it was then better, and that with great care it might recover. She asked if lie thought a wet nurse would be any use to her ? He replied that he thought it would be of great service. She said Mr. Slater could not leave by the train she had come by, but would bo in Bath by three or four o'clock, and that be wished particularly to see him (Mr. Lawrenc), and she strongly urged him to be there. Ile told her he would if he could; but he was not back in time. ' The :Mayor here remarked, that in coriseTuenee of the serious turn the caw had taken a longer adjournment thea was at first contemplated would be necessary. The prisoner wee then remanded till Thursday next. MURDER AND SUICIDE AT BERMONDSEY. A catastrophe, if not similar in degree, at least similar in character to that which so recently occurred at Camberwell, and some particulars of which appeared in Saturday's Express, took place on Friday afternoon last, in Bridge-street, Bermondsey New-town. The parties concerned moved in a very humble sphere of life, still the occurrence, Lamentable and fearful, as will be seen by the subjoined proceedings at the inquest, caused consider able excitement in Bermondsey, thickhead, the vicinity of 'f unl ey-st re ct , and in she Borough. On Satunlay, at half-past three o'clock, the inquest wu held by Mr. W. Carter, coroner fur East Surrey, and a jury of 14 parishioners, at the Fleece, Great George-street, liennondscy New-town. . _ _ Robert Sutcliffe, a bootmakcr, living in the same house with the deceased persons, said—About half-past four on Friday afternoon, the little girl, Harriet Newman, was wanted by me, and Mrs. Staines, the landlady of the house, called her, and she went for a loaf of bread for me and ' brought it. She was then in good health. Having exe cuted the errand, she went up stairs to her mother's room on the first door. In about five minutes she came running down, screaming, and crying "Oh, dear!" Upon this my wile opened the door of our room, which is on the ground floor back, and the little girl ran in. I saw that blood was streaming down her person front her throat, and said " What's to do ?" She replied, " Mother has done this." I jumped up and said, " Olt, dear, her throat is cut !" Mrs. Staines, the landlady, came running in from the back yard and said, " (io for a doctor . ' As I was going the little girl followed me, and as soon as she got into the street she fell into the arms of a female—Mrs. Horn, living next door, whose son went for medical assistance, which arrived in about ten or fifteen minutes. She was then carried up stairs and put into • warm bath, and I understand she died in ten minutes af terwards. The name of the father of the child is John Newman, and he is a mason's labourer. Ile was not at home when this happened, and there was no one there at the time on a visit to his wife. I went up stairs with the wounded girl, and saw her mother lying on the door under the window, with her head towards the bedstead, and her throat cut extensively. She was 'bawd. There was a great pool of blood about her on the floor. She was dead. I saw an open razor covered with blood in the doctor's hand. I apprehend she caused her own death and that of her daughter. I ant satisfied on the point. The landlady was in the yard at the time, and my wife was with use in my , room. There was nobody else in the house. I think she cut the child's throat first, and then her own. I had not seen the mother, Mrs. Newman, for three weeks, because during that time she was confined to her bed and room with rheumatic fever. She had been under medical treatment. A gentleman from a dispensary attended her. By a juror —Whilst the child was gone on an errand for me, her mother inquired for her, and being told whither she had gone, she said, in an unusually harsh tone, " Send her up to me the moment she comes in." Caroline Edeards, xamined—About twenty minutes past tour on Friday I heard Mrs. Horn screaming, and holding a child on the step of her own door, next to that of deceased's. I crossed the street, and saw that the child was bleeding. Mrs. Horn had put a towel around the little girl's neck. I asked what was the matter, and they said, " It has cut its throat ;" and Mrs. Staines, the land lady, said to me, " Look after the poor mother." I went upstairs into the deceased wontaa's room, and I saw her lying on the floor at the foot of the bed. She appeared to me to be quite dead. I picked up an open razor, which was very much covered with blood, and which lay on the floor near deceased's feet. Three or foar doctors came, and the child was brought up stain to her mother's room, and there died in about ten minutes. Her throat was cut, but she had no ether injuries upon her person. Charles Slow, parish constable, said that in consequence of certain information he proceeded to 23, Bridge-street, ' and there saw the deceased persons, and received from the last witness the razor produced. He examined the premises and saw no marks indicative of any one having escape 4 from them. Mr W. R. Ashy, surgeon, of Napoleon Cottage, Neckin ger-road, examined—On Friday afternoon I was called to the house in question, and my attention was tint directed to the deceased child, who was sitting on the door sup of the next house, and a woman supporting her. I examined her and found she had received a transverse wound in the throat, about five inches in length. The external jugular on the right side was cut through. No part of the wound was deeper than a quarter of an inch, but he was of opinion that it was the c.suae of the child's death, and that it was inflicted not by the child herself but by another person. I I saw tho mother of the child, and found that she had re- I caved an extensive, clear, incised wound in the throat, in length about six inches, and very deep, about three The jugular vein and carotid artery were dividtd, and so was the windpipe. The wound was of a decid e dly m or t a l character. lie should judge that the wound was indicted by herself. Frances Morgan, the mother and grandmother of the de ceased woman and child, said she believed her daughter died by her own hand, and that it was sho who had destroyed her child. Daring her illness ahe seemed frequently do ranged in her mind, and she had never fully recovered. Sometimes she did not know what she was saying. John Newman, the husband, was then examined, and said he left his wife a little alter two o'clock. She seemed better then, and he had no suspicion that she would do any rash act. During her illness she scarcely slept at all. She was continually waking him nt night, though she did not want anything. He believed her to have been partly insane. Ihe coroner summed up, and stated that no matter in what state of mind a party may be, if he or she kill another, it is by law an act of homicide or murder, and that court had no power of discharging the party, no matter how in sane he may be, of the crime. Superior courts might do to. The jury then returned the following verdict :—" That the deceased, Harriett Newman, wilfully murdered by her mother, Mary Anna Newman ; and that the said Mary Anna Newman committed suicide, being at the time in an unsound state of mind." WEST YI 14 ENT ART Li TILE REOISTEATIONg. -REVISION OF TILE PAItLIA gh the revision of these lists was completed a week ago, it was not until Friday that all the returns could be examined by the secretary of the central committee acting on behalf of the liberal party. The result is highly satisfactory, as showing a clear gain to the liberal party, upon the whole recision, of 1,13 i votes. The principle upon which this calculation is made shows the ' nd not the nominal gain merely. For instance, if a name is struck off the list for one township, but re on in another township, no account is taken of the so struck off in estimating the gain or lees. This re applies also to new claims ; and, so again, if a liberal has established a claim to be on the list ut property particular township, and he w.,1 previously on the or some other township, the new entry is not as • gala. By Ws mode of calculation, the e ffi cient secretary of the West hiding registra• tion committee is enabled to show the net gain in individual votes, all duplicate entries being left out of consideration. The total aggregate gain to the liberals since the last election has been not much short of 2,600 votes. At the last election for the riding in 1848 the num bers were—for Mr. Denison 14,713, and for Sir C. Eardley 11,791, giving a majority of 2,948 to the former. It should, however, be remembered that the circumstances of that eiection were somewhat peculiar and very unusual. In consequence of a split between the influential leading whip, with }lad Fitxwilliam at the head, and the more active leaders of the liberal party in the manufacturing districts, some four or five thousands of the liberals voted for the conservative candidate—a thing which they will nil cer tainly, under any circumstances likely to arise, in again. Moreover, it is hoped that before another election takes place the two sections will again be brought into united and harmonious action, and if so they have a clear majority of three or four thousand on the register. The following is the result of the revision in all the polling districts in the riding Liberal gain on new claims, 70.5; liberal gain on old list, 430; total liberal gain, 1,13;. SOUTH STAFFORDSIIIRE.—In the IVolverhampton district the following is the result of the revision by Mr. Selfc, the barrister appointed fur the purpose. Claims by liberals 414, all sustained. Objections by liberals, 13; sus tained, 11. Conservative claims, 17; sustained, 14. Ob jection. by the con.ervatives, 175; sustained, 1. Total gain to the liberals, 410. ...AM, Mang •ROMC ...

The cave against Elizabeth Slater was resumed before the bath magistrates, at the Guildhall, on Saturday morning. Mr. Ilerapath, analytical chemist, of Bristol, was het next witness exantinell. Ile almond as follows:—On the 7th of October I received from Mr. Lawrence, surgeon, of Caverton-street, Bath, a brown jar, sealed, which contained two napkin., which I now produce. In each of these I found very blight traces of arsenic, which I now produce. should think the tube I now produce contains about two thirds of the arsenic I discovered in one napkin. On the Bth I received from Inspector Brown • paper panel con taining a foul napkin. In this 1 found faint traces of arsenic. I also received from him at the mine time a child's night gown, which I produce. There were marks of sickness upon it in small quantities. Upon boiling the bedgown in wider, and evaporating it in dryness, I found in the residue slight trace , of arsenic. Three tubes I produce contain the whole quantity I found in the bedgown. At the same time I received from Inspector Brown • napkin labelled, "napkin removed at 10 o'clock on Wednesday morn ing, October Bth, 18.11. B. &ark." In this I found slight traces of arsenic. There was another napkin delivered at the same time to me, stated to have been removed at 4 o'clock the same day, but I will not speak p‘c.atnivccelyautut o th be, w at i . th l a h s e u s b a l ine d w ay ., l received iireel pro fz: it. cut it in two and dissolved out the sublimate, which was small in quantity. 1 tested the solution with am moniac sulphate of copper, which predund 'cheeks green, and with hyro-sulphurie acid, which produced the yellow orpiment, or sulphate of arsenic. On the 111th 1 received from Inspector Norms a whity-brown twisted paper, con taining a white powder. In this there was no arsenic. From the same person I received • bottle containing a small quantity of white powder, which was also free from arsenic. I received from Mr. John Pearce a bottle of powdered borax, in which I could find no arsenic. 1 have tried experiments upon two galley pots of borax awl honey, but I find that the ordinary modes of analysis are not ap plicable to such a mixture ; and that I must therefore make a new series of ceperiments upon it. I received the pot, of borax and honey—one from Mr. Tyke, chemist, of Bath, on the 11th, the other from In-pector Brown on the 111th. On the 14th 1 received from Mr. Lawrence a napkin in a beaker glees; in this I found no arsenic. There were several other napkins I received which were stated to have been removed at an earlier period, but these I have not yet had time to examine. I have worked till half-past 12 each night and got up at six in the morning; but if you wish me to continue the analysis of cruet I will du so. Mr. Williains—M hat would have been the probable effect of such an amount of arsenic as you have found upon • small baby ? Mr. Ilerapath—Of course it is to be supposed that what I was thrown 01l was only a small quantity of that ailminis tend, if administered at all. In all cases when person' have died from arsenic, and I have examined the body, I have found it in the liver and other tissues, and this has been the can where the patient has passed arsenic by sick ness and motions before dying. In 99 cases out of 100 arsenic produces • burning sensation in the stomach. It will also affect the mouth and cause disinclination to swallow. ' It will also produce salivation in the mouth when its ad ministration is long continued. The general symptoms pro- ductal an violent action in the stomach and in the hetes boat canal, sickuen, pur.tine, cramps, great pains, burn ing pains in the stomach, and sometimes coldness in the extra-milieu. It sometimes produces palsy, but that is rare. I have never seen a case of ulceration of the mouth from arsenic. Any irdtating body upon a mucous substance will produce irritation, and ulcers sometimes result ; but I don't think arsenic wand.' remain long enough in the mouth to produce it, and I eliould nut like to say anything about it. Uj . cannoCgive an opinion of the quan tity of arsenic found—it wu very trifluag—mcre truss is sub sau. __ IyMr Williams—The smallest dose of arsenic recorded as the cause of death in a single dose is just under three grains. I have reason to believe, however, that a smaller ' quantity would cause death. It is eztremely difficult to know what qu.ustities have been administered. There are only few ir stances where quantities have been recorded; but this much is known that a slight overdose of Bowler's solution will have a disastrous effect. Mrs. Elisabeth Grant, sister to Mrs. Searle, corroborated her evidence in all the main points, and added that when the cMld was removed to the country she accompanied it, and that its health improved whilst it was away. On one occasion also, observing something on the child's mouth, whilst the prisoner was nursing her, she took it and said, " 31y little darling what have you in your mouth, what have th e y b een g i v i ng you ?" L pon which the prisoner took the - baby from her, saying, "Give me the little pig." lhe mime., in cross-examination, admitted that the pri soner always appeared fund of the child. Mr. Searle confirmed other witnesses, and stated that it was in COlllayucnce of suggestions which occurred to his mind when reflecting as to what could cause the child's vomiting and purging after its mother left, which induced him to consult with Mrs. Searle, and send the child into the country. A. third occurrence of similar circumstances induced him to send the following letter to the prisoner " Bath, Oct. 1, 1851. " Dear Madam,-1 have much pleasure in informing you that your darling baby is (after another most trying illness) inprosing. Immediately after you left the dear babe ap peared to be in much pain in the stomach, and was very auk. ; L ad her dear mouth appeared in a very painful state, continuing to be very restless indeed, so mach so that we could get n o rest w i t h h er d ay or night. Indeed, our rest for many nights has been very disturbed, and oac night I caught a severe cold getting out of bed to try and relieve the dear little sufferer, and it is only during the last three days that we have been able to *ay she is getting better. Had any one besides ourselves been nursing of her I should k.!'re thought she had been treated badly, or had some ,ruhlhe proper administered to her. Of course her dear huh' body is very thin, meagre, but I doubt not, if she continues to get better, she will ram pick up flesh. Mrs. Searle has been feeding her very often between her other fad with jelly, which was the only thing we amid get to ktlle on the stomach fur some time. Mr. Lawrence has continued to attend her, hut of course little can be done in the say of medicine for her. The principal thing that could be done for her has been good nursing, and great at teution to diet, te. I urn very pleased to be able to say she is m.hung quite lively and perceptive, even laughing aloud Sca the rourning.l am, yours most respectfully, B. e" IRELAND. Donuir, Ocr. 11. The Hon. Abbot Lawrence and party left Dublin this morning, ell Holyhead, for the American em bassy in London. Tho demeanour of the hon. gen tleman, during his short visit to Ireland, and the interest which he manifested in every matter con nected with the social improvement and prosperity of this country, have left very favourable impres sions on the minds of men of all parties here. The ltev. Alexander King, Independent minister, has publicly thrown down the gauntlet to Mr. John Reynolds, NIT., and his colleagues of the Catholic Defence Association, to discuss at a public meeting, either before or after the intended meeting of the association on the 1 ith inst., tho question : Should the Roman catholics of these countries address the Pope, urging the legal establishment and practical security of liberty of conscience in Rome? It is needless to add that Mr. Reynolds has not accepted the challenge. It is stated that a large increase in the demand for calm, to make lime fur agricultural purposes, is now perceptible in various districts of Ireland. Mr. Richard Mahony, J.P., of Dromore Castle, Kentnare, was placed under arrest a few days since, on a charge of intending to fight a duel with Mr. Maurice O'Connell, M.P. Mr. Mahony entered into bail to keep the peace, his sureties being Mr. Her bert, M.P., and Henry Leahy, Esq. A woman was found murdered near the church at Passage on Thursday night. The unfortunate de ceased received a stab in the neck, which must have produced instantaneous death. A sailor belonging to a Greek ship has been arrested on suspicion. The soldier of the 40th Regiment, who accused himself of having murdered a young woman in Eng land ten years since, was handed over yesterday to the military authorities at Cork, the charge which he made against himself having, on investigation, turned out to be a falsehood. The quays of Dublin arc daily crowded with emi grants embarking either direct for America, or pro ceeding there by steamers via Liverpool. No at tempts, however, have been made to ascertain the number of emigrants who leave Ireland at this port. At a temperance soiree held at Killarney a few days since, Mr. Morgan John O'Connell, and Mr. Herbert, M.P., took the opportunity to address such of their constituents as were assembled there, touching their parliamentary conduct during the last session. The vacation closed in the Encumbered Estates Court on Thursday, and full hours, from ten to four, were resumed in the various offices yesterday. It may be observed, however, that there was scarcely any suspension of the ordinary operations of tho court during the vacation. The offices were open, daily, from ten till three; the commissioners flatted an immense number of petitions at their own resi dences; and the very large number of conditional orders made out by the secretary bear testimony to the fact that he was not idle during his temporary absence from Henrietta-street. Richard A. Fitz gerald, Eaq., general clerk and taxing officer, per formed the duties of acting secretary for the last two months. During the past week thirteen new peti tions were filed, the properties in these cases being, however, of insignificant amount, and for the most part encumbered very far beyond their value. Some sales have taken place during the week, under the orders of the commissioners, at Cork, and some further sales at Ballinasloe. At Cork the estate of Richard Henry Becher, comprising 11,000 acres, in West Carbery, was put up for sale yester day. For any of the lots submitted for competition up to the post hour the highest bidding was not equal to ten years' purchase on the net yearly rental with the exception of one lot, the net annual rent ofl which was 921. 68., the poor law valuation 3911., and the hihest otter 1,8301. The estate of Christopher J. H. tewen, in the county of Mayo, was sold Ballinasloe on Wednesday. The rates of purchase upon the net yearly rent of the several lots were' about 4, 13, 8, and 4 years respectively. LOCAL SHARE MARKETS.

There was a retail trade for foreign Wheat, at former rates. Flour fully supported its value. Choice qualities of malting Barley were scarce, and sold readily at extreme prices. Secondary sorts were neglected, and easier to purchase. There was a steady sale for foreign, for grinding purposes, and its value underwent no change. New Oats scarcely sold so well as last week, whilst old were fully as dear. l'eas brought rather more money. Beam were egoist rather cheaper. BRITI4II 13hilltop per Qr.

Pattcnden and Smith report that the demand for all fine Hops continues very brisk, at fully late prices. The duty by many is thought to be much overrated at 1145,0 t 0/. CORONFS• ISQLTEST.--3IVSTERIOCS DEATH OF A ULT.—An investigation, which did not terminate until nearly ono o'clock on Saturday morning, was opened on Friday afternoon, before Mr. Wakley, the coroner, and a jury of householders of Marylebonc, at the Buffalo's Head t Lrn, New-road, as to the circumstances connected with t .e death of Mrs. Mary Elisabeth Kelly, aged 70, an in dependent lady of large fortune, residing at N 0.9, Notting ham -terrace,Regent's.park. The proceedings, from the rumours afloat on the subject, had excited great interest, it being alleged that the deceased had died in a very mysterious soil suspicious manner, leaving property to the value of 30,0001., which was claimed by Captain Frederick Corner (late of the Indian army), as the alleged son of the deceased lady, who had never been married, and who had a will in his pocket, stated to have been made by the de ceased, leaving the whole of the deceased lady's property to him. The registrar had refused to register the death, and hence the inquest. The jury having viewed the body of the deceased, which lay at her residence, Margaret Liddell, a servant, was first examined, and stated that she found deceased in her bed in a state of insensi bility, in which condition she lay for several hours and then died. Captain Corner, deceased's son, was aware of her erudition, but no medical man was sent for. She could nut in any way account fur deceased's death. Believed she bad left a great deal of property. The Coroner, after hearing this evidence, consulted with the jury, and resolved to ad journ the inquiry till 9 o'clock the same evening for a post nsortein examination of the body, which was entrusted to Mr. Gilliam, the head surgeon of Marylebone Infirmary. On the re-assembling of the jury, Captain Frederick Corner was examined. Ile said ho was the son of the deceased lady, who was 70 years of age. She had been sickly man times, bat always bad an abhorrenc e of doctors, and would never have medical advice until about four months since, when a friend of his prescribed for her. The name of his friend was Dr. Frith, of New-cross, Deptford. He pre• scribed some pills for her, but she only took two or three, and positively refused to take any more. Ile repeatedly advised the deceased to have ad vice, and pi did the servant, but without effect. By the Coroner—The deceased had made a will five years since, in which she had left all her property, which was very considerable, to him. He had :that will in his possession now, and had had it ev er s i nce it was made, fi ve years ago. On the Coroner asking the captain why, when he found his parent so near death, he had not sent for a medical man, ho replied—As a dutiful son, he did not feel justified in going beyond the wiahof a parent, and therefore he sent forpeone. Anne Meredith, a charwoman, stated that she was em ployed at deceased's house. She had never seen deceased until within about three minutes of her death, when she was called to look at her. She knew the family through the kininess of Captain Corner to her late husband some timeheforo his death. Always understood the captain to be tie son of the deceased lady, hut could in no way ac count for the death of Mrs. Kelly. Mr. Gilliam, head surgeon of Marylebone Infirmary, was then examined, and deposed that he had made a post nwrtem examina tion. He found the brain, lungs, intestines, and liver all perfectly healthy. The stomach appeared nearly empty, and he could nut detect any evidences of poison. The heart was rather fatty, but the ventricles were all healthy. On the comer inquiring what was the actual cause of death, Mr. Gilliam stated that it was inexplicable. There was no disease of any organ, or anything to indicate what had been the cause of death. It wax impossible to say what was the actual cause of death. Captain Corner (in answer to a juryman as to why he applied to St. Maryle bone workhouse on the subject of the death) said his object was to register the d ea th ; but, finding he could not get it registered, he applied to the coroner's officer ; and the coroner, upon the facts being communicated to him, issued his w‘rrant for the nlquest. The coroner, having remarked upon the singular character of the case, the jury returned the following verdict—" That the deceased had died from some mortal cause unknown to the jury, and not discovered ea asking a port-aeorteas examinataen.'

THIS DAY. Two ()Times. Arrangements for the settlement of to-morrow's account in Consols have attracted some attention to-day, but they have not imparted any activity to the market, or induced any variation in prices. The dealers generally display confidence in the sta bility of quotations, which will be supported during the quarter upon which we have just entered, by the investment of a sum of 758,196 L, on account of the Commissioners for the Reduction of the National Debt. The Europa has not brought over so large a quan tity of specie as was expected, the amount being only 10,400 dollars; but we arc this morning advised of the arrival of 60,000/. in specie, at Southampton, by the Jupiter steamer, and further sup plies are also looked for from Russia. Some people had anticipated very unfavourable ac counts from New York, and the news has cows.. quently been looked to with much anxiety, but gene rally the impression produced appears to be rather favourable than otherwise, as no more largo failures had occurred, and the banks were strengthening themselves with the continued receipts from California, the drain from shipments to this side being at the same time diminished, whilst mer cantile men were doing their utmost to contract their liabililics. With various considerations of la favourable character coming daily i n t o s t ronger I operation on the money market, it was hoped that I I the inconvenience resulting trom the pressure would be much alleviated. Consols opened at 901 to both for money and to- morrow, being Saturday's rate, and have not varied except for a moment, when•they were buyers at 981. For the November account the quotation is 961 to 97. The other stocks continue to be dealt in by special transfer. The official business report embraces the following :—Threo per Cent. Consols, J 6;, ; ditto for account, 961, ; Three per Cent. Reduced, 96, ; New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 971 i, 1. Bank Stock, 2111, 2121 ; India Stock, 282. The unfunded securities are still inquired for, and looking up. Ihe bulk of the business in Exchequer Bills this morning has been done at 4(s. to 49s.prem., but they have since advanced another shilling, pur chases having been made at als. prem. India Bonds rule at the improved quotation of .51s. to Zffis. prcm. Business in the foreign stocks is very restricted, quotations remaining much the same as last week. The advices by the Europa do not appear to affind any trustworthy intelligence from Mexico, as some accounts represent the country as gene rally tranquil, whilst others report the extension of the insurrectionary movement in the northern provinces. However the bonds to-day are worse, having receded to 26t. The day's business list is as follows: Brazilian New Five per Cents., 1829 and 39, 841. Dutch Four per Cent. Certificates, 901, 91 ex div. Grenada Deferred, 31. Mexican for account, 17th October, 27, 261; ditto small, 271. Peruvian Five per Cents., 1819, 88 ex div. Russian Four and-a-Half per Cents., 1011. Sardinian Five per Cents., 63, 821; ditto Scrip, 11 dis. SA IT:ZDAT EVENING. The rates for money on deposit and for discount remain the same as before, and there is every prospect that no immediate change will take place, though a large amount will after the approaching week be floating about for some time. Although in particular quarters a great want of accommodation is felt, the general rates for first class securities are un affcted. As yet the course of investment is in pay ing foreign stocks, and in railway guarantee and preference shares, which latter are certainly coming more into demand, and are in some instances scarce. The prices of these stocks nre ulrea4sutlit;;;ly high, and us there is no temptation to touch the foreign speculative stocks, and Consuls arc high, it is probable a demand for ordinary railway shares will take place. There are no heavy calls for any pur pose now in operation. The Bank of France returns for the week ending Thursday, the 9th of October, show the follow ing results (2.3 francs for : Bullion Bullion on deposit 110,160 1 neresse 19.248 Circulation Public deposits 3,332,761 Decrease .... 329,061 Private deposits Bills discounted Government securities 7,196,223 Increase .... 117,341 The last return of the National Bank of Belgium, as made up to Sept. 30, is as follows (2.3 f. for 1/.): Bullion Discounts Circulation Current accounts 910,881 Increeie .... 87,815 With the exception of the decline of id. in dollars, already noticed, the bullion market this week has undergone no change.
