The funds opened with more firmness this morn ing, but have since resumed a dull appearance, owing to a large sale of New Three per Cents., coupled with the receipt of somewhat lower prices from the Paris Bourse. Prices are now quoted e per cent. lower than at four o'clock yesterday. In the other departments of the Stock Exchange quietude pre vails. At Paris to-day (Thursday), according to Mr. Renter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at 69.10 for the account, but soon afterwards receded to 69, showing a further decline of per cent. compared with the latest price of yesterday. Consols have been quoted u good u 961, " buyers," for money and the Bth February, and have since relapsed to 96, " sellers," the present quotation. The Three per Cents. Reiland have been dealt in at 90} to 4 ; the New Three per Cents. at 961t0 ; Bank Stock at 2261; Indian Stock at 224 ; the Indian Four per Cent. Debentures, of the first inns, at 991 ; Indian Bonds at Ws. to 225. prem. ; the March Exchequer Bills, at 375. prem. ; ditto June, at 37a. to 40e. prem. ; and Exchequer Bonds, falling payable in May next, at 104 to I. Turirish stocks are steady. The Six per Cents. of 1864 ere quoted 911 to 1„ and the New Loan 41 to 41 dia. Portuguese Bonds are in demand. Spanish and Russian likewise show firmness.

A meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Metcalfe and Co., distillers, of West Ham, was held to-day. The previous meeting was adjourned with a view to some arragement being made with the loan creditors. It now appears that upon the matter being brought before these gentle men they agreed to defer their claims for five years upon condition, however, that some arrangement should be made with the trade creditors. The latter accordingly agreed upon certain terms, which were consented to by Mr. More. They are es follows :-54. in the pound to be paid at once, ss. in March, as. in June, and ss. in Deo. In addition, Mr. Mure offered to pay 5 per cent. on the instalments. A abort discussion having taken place, in the course of which sympathy was expressed for the firm, the proposition wee unanimously agreed to. In the meantime the business of the firm will, of course, be carried on as usuaL The fluctuations are now almost solely in response to the movement of the Paris Bonus. Considering the connexion between the Court and the Bourse, the French funds are watched as an un erring index of the course of politic'. The prospec that, during a considerable time to ease, the markets here will be driven up and down, and legitimate business checked, at the will of the well-informed jobbers on the other side of the Channel, is not viewed with peculiar satisfaction. In the discount market yesterday the demand was moderate, but little business is done below the Bank minimum. At the Bank, the applications were upon the somewhat limited scale lately noticed. The West India steamer Magdalena has brought 130,400!. in specie, of which 86,9001. is gold and 44,6001. silver. In the Bankruptcy Court yesterday a dividend meeting took place in the matter of Mesas. Byers, Walker, and Co., who failed in 1868. Up to the last meeting the amount of debts proved was 131,190!., upon which a dividend of Is. 2d. in the pound has already been paid. As further proofs to a large amount were admitted this day, the whole of the funds in band will be required for the payment of that dividend upon them. We understand that the forthcoming dividend of the Midland Railway Company will be at the rate of 61 to 61 per cent. - per tannin. Daring the last few days speculative attention in the Stock Exchange has been principally directed to Lombardo-Venetian Railway shun, the oscillations in which are violent and incessant. Purchases in the London market, spinet sales et Paris, or vice versa, are carried on upon a large scale. The supply of the old shares in the London market appears to be limited, as they are comparatively well held ; bat the new issue, being as yet only partially absorbed I by bocci 'fide holders, presents a great field for speculation. Mere selling and buying does not satisfy the mania for gambling, and as "optional" transactions io the new shares to a large amount have already taken place. The terms are 10e. per share for the " pat " of the new shares up to the special settlement, which is expected to take place two or three weeks hence, or 10s. per share for the " call," or 11. per share for both " put and call." It may be requisite to explain that the " put" means the option of selling the skates at a price nom fired : the " call " means the option of buying them; and the " put and call " signifies both these options combined. In face of the gambling which is going on, embracing half-a-doren different markets, it us hoped, but scarcely believed, that the approaching settlement in the new shares will be effected without embarrassment. —.— The French financial journals state that the rail way companies, commencing from the Ist of July next, will issue obligations to the amount of 340 millions of trans (13,600,0001.) for railway works during the present year. Until the date mentioned, the Bank of France will make the necessary ad vances. These demands constitute a heavy and per manent drain upon the market, and u soon es the issues of new bonds recommence, the value of the existing issues can scarcely fail to be affected. In the event of war, great embarrassment would pro. bably be experienced. The half-yearly meeting of the Great Northern Railway Company is called for the 19th Feb. ; that of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Rsit way Company for the 10th Feb., at Worcester; and that of the Royston and Hitchin Railway Company for the 14th Feb. _ _ _ 1 .-- Asecconispect --: al general meeting of proprietors of the Union Bank of Australia is called for the 4th of February, to confirm the resolutions passed at the 'meeting on the 10th inst.

The haltyearly interest is advertised on the Six per Cent. Debenture Stock of the Crystal Palace Company. With reference to the market for American rail way securities, Mr. E. F.

The fund. opened this morning ess;;;ld at one period en improvement of to 3-16 per cent. was attained. Upon the receipt of lower prices from Paris, en immediate fall took place, and the cuing quotations were barely as good u those of yesterday. After the close of the Stock Exchange a fresh reduction off per cent. was quoted, owing to news that the Three per Cent. Renter had fallen to 68.80. The government broker made his usual investment on public account, and there wu a pur chase by the broker who acts for the Court of Chan- The general investments appear to bare become less numerous at the enhanced prices lately established.

In the foreign stock market the principal transitct tions were in the Turkish Six per Cents. of 1854, which were first marked 911, and subsequently 911, closing at 911 to 4, or 1 per cent, lower than yes terday. The new Turkish Loan was heavy at one period of the day, but afterwards became firmer, the first series closing at 41 to 41 dirt., and the second at 44 to 41 dia. Peruvian Bonds were in good demand, and have advanced, in consequence of the magni ' tude of the sales of guano, the profit of the Peru ; virtu government upon which must be very large, as the rates of freight are so low.

DEATH OP LADY GEOZOIANA WOLPF.—Tho village of Isle Brower* and neighbourhood have been thrown tato •etate of gloom by thestuiden demise of Lady Georgians, the beloved wife of the Rev. Dr. Wulff, which took place early on Sunday mornieg last. The deceased lady returned from a dinner party at about half-past 11 on the previous evening, and retired to rest In her usual nets of health, when about 2 o'clock in the following morning she was seized with a suffocating sensation in the chest and a rattling in the throat, which continued to incrsaae in spite of every effort which her domestics most diligently , toed to relieve her, until her death, which occurred about half an hour afterwards, and before her medical attendant could arrive. An inquest was held on Monday, before W. W. Muenton, Esq., and a r=fhie jury, when a verdict of " Died by the 'imitation c . was returned. This estimable lady wee • daughter of Horace Walpole Earl of Oxford, and born at Wolverton, Norfolk, the 19th of February, 1795,; she married the Bev. Dr. Wolff in 1823, by whom she haves one son, Mr. Henry Drummond Wulff, who is now the private sectary of Sir H. Dulwer Lytton. In her the poor have lost a nimble friend, end society one of its distinguished onamerm, her brilliant talents being the theme of general admiration.- sAerborme 1,11 AN " UNEQUAL" MATCH.—The Haver fordwest TekyrepA gives an amusing account of a wedding which look oleos lately at the village of Thorne@ Chapel, and the anticipation of which had thrown the aelghbourhood into a state of ezeitement. The bride would be considered tall even for amen, while the bridegroom scarcely stands three het high. The bridegroom endeavottred to keep the time of their leaving for church as secret as possible, and the more effectually to sormiplish his purpose, determined to start very early in the mowing. But the time of starting wee soon sweet led by a few persons. About five cro. the temple prepared to start for Atoroth chinch, havin g about four mike to walk. They pror. 'del a little way aloes: when all of a sudden they were astonished at hearing the evert of a gun near them, and immediately after, as if by magic, they ware saluted by about fifty Famous tearing lighted torches and candles, who had come from different parts of the neighbourhood to welcome thew. Now great excitement prevailed, and amidst the @bonnet of the multitude, which gathered strength as they went along, the bride and bridegroom were escorted on their way. About midway between their milder= and the church the party were met by a band of fifes and drams, and by this time the crowd had tocreased to about three hundred permute, who arieromanied the couple nearly all the way. The noise sad uproar of the crowd were great. But everything mint have an end, and so must mirth. Having reached the church, and the hymeneal kaot being tied, the crowd dinpeteed, sad • all wended their way homewards. A I 1
