THE FENIAN INVESTIGATION. rI'ETRER EXAMINATION AT BOW-STREET OF THE PRISONERS CHARGED WITH MURDER AN!' TIEASON•FELONY.—(THIS DAY.) At Flow-street this morning the five prisoners charged with wilful murder—(and as regards two of them )-e e harv.l with treason•felony, in conjunction with two ethers, Mulaney and O'Keefe)—were again placed at the b c f el e 'ir Thomas Henry. They answered to their names as follows :—William p,s.a.nd, Timothy Desmond, Jeremiah Allen, Nicholas r.a.lisb. and Anne Justice. The prosecution was, as hitherto, conducted by Mr. Q.4'., and Mr. Poland, instructed by the solicitors t,. the Treasury. Mr. Lewis, of 2Z, Great Marlborough „rm, appeared for Anne Justice. Mr. Chas. Harper, of Ar.. , ,,ll.strect, appeared for Timothy Desmond. The charge apmat the prisoners, it will be remembered, is that of wilful rainier of the persons killed by the Clerkenwell explosion. It was understood that the charge of treason-felony against William 1 )esmond, Nicholas English, Mulaney, and O'Keefe sould be taken late in the day. ,I,hn Butler, one of the surveyors to the commissioners o f po li c ,, produced a plan of the House of Detention and the adjacent neighbourhood with accurate copies of the _ _ Thomas Henry proceeded to sign the plan and c Via'/. Mr. town said that as he had only just been inatruoted, and had not had time to read the evidence, he wished to roerve his cross-examination, supposing that he should find that any cross-examination was necessary. Sir Thomas Henry--I think you were present last time. Mr. Lewis—Yes, sir ; I mean with the exception of tboe witnesses. Georg.) Ranger—l am a police-constable, G 109. I was on duty at the Clerkenwell House of Detention on the 1:1th inst. I went en duty at 12 o'clock. I saw Allen there at about ten minutes past r He asked Mr. Werth, the warder, whether soy one had been to see Casey? I did not hear what Mr. Worth said. At 20 minutes put 12 Ann Justice came and naked to see Casey. She was admitted through the large gate. Mr. Worth asked her if she was any rela tion to Casey. She mid she wee his aunt. She went in, and came out at about half-past 12. She then joined Allen at a public-house, the Prince of Wales, about four or five yards from the gate. I did not notice anything in her manner. An observation had been made to me, but I did not observe anything. In consequenoe of the observation, I gore information to Knowles, 200 G, who was on duty outside. About 1 o'clock a visitor came to see Burke, and left at 30 minutes past 1. I and Knowles followed that person, but I lest sight of Knowles. I returned to the House of Detention at ten minutes to 3. I there saw Anne Justice in Short'a-buildinge looking up towards Britlewell-walk. Allen at that time was standing right opposite the prison gate. I went into the prison and had a communication with Moore, the chief warder. I went back to the small wicket gate and looked through it, and sew Ann Justice and Allen convening together near the Prince of Wales beershop at the corner of St. James's walk opposite the prison gate. I remember Inspector Thomson arriving. This was as near 3 o'clock as possible. I made a communication to him. Thomson went away in a cab. After be left I saw Allen walking in Strutton'aground. This was about • quarter-past 3. I then saw Timothy Desmond join Mrs. Juatioe at the corner of St. James's-walk. They were conversing. About half-pest 3 I law Allen came oat of Stratton's-ground in company with another man. Allan then joined Anne Justice at the corner of St. James's-walk. Timothy Desmond walked down Short'aluildinp with the other man (who is not yet in custody) that I saw come with Allen. I then made communication to Constable Goldsmith, G 64. About 10 minutes to 4 I heard • fearful noise like an ex plosion. I ran out of the prison as soon as I could get out. I met constable Sutton in Short's-buildings. He made a communication to me. We ran into St. James's-walk, where I saw the prisoners Allen and Justice running. As he was limning I knocked him down with my fist. They were running alongside each other. It was about 20 yards from the prison wall ; about half way along St. James's walk when I saw them running. [The witness pointed out the spot on the plan to which be frequently referred to during his evidence.] I then told Allen I should take him in custody for being concerned in blowing up the mime wall. He said, " I have been sent here by Inspector Brannan." At that moment I saw Ti mothy Desmond. I said " Sutton, look out, there comes the other one that you followed." Sutton then took Desmond in custody, and removed him inside the wall of the prison. He was just coming round the corner by the Prince of Wales, for the direction of Short's buildings, when I tint saw him. Allen was dressed as he is now—wearing a black hat. Timothy Desmond also had a black hat. I mean ordinary silk hate. The witness was not cross-examined by either of the prisoners. Thomas Knowles, police-constable 200 G—On Friday, 13th December, I was on duty at the House of Detention, ClerkenwelL At 12 o'clock I was inside the prison. While I was them Allen came to the gate and asked if any person had visited Casey. I did not bear the reply, but Worth, the warder, said something to him. I waited about ten minutes, when the prisoner Anne Justice MAC I saw Allen standing outside near the beershop. Justice said she wished to visit Casey, she was his aunt. I had not seen her outside before she came to visit the prisoner. She was admitted to the prison and remained there some time. When she went in 1 went outside. I saw Allen standing at the corner of St. James's-walk and Sbort's-buildings, where the been.hop is. I communicated with Sutton. I watched therieoner Allen. He waited at the corner. I saw Ann e Justice leave the prison about twenty minutes to 1, I think. She bad been in about twenty minutes. She crossed the road to Allen, and they stood talking till I left at twenty minutes to 2. They were still together talking when I went away. At twenty minutes to 2 a person who had been to visit Burke left the prison. Ranger and I followed him. He went away in a cab. I followed as far as Fleet-alnet, I had lost sight of Ranger on the way. Before I got back to the prison the explosion had taken place. I got back at about a quarter past 4, I should say. Before the ex plosion I had been on duty in plain clothes since the 25th November, watching at the p r is on , sometimes inside the prison and sometimes out. Before this Friday I had not seen the prisoner Anne Justice either at the prison or outside. By Mr. Lewis—l did not see whether she had any bundle, such as dinner, or the like. By Mr. Harper—l did not see Timothy Desmond there at any time. William Desmond, English, and Allen had no questions to put. Matthew Crowley, sub-warder at the House of Deten tion laid—On the 13th, about quarter past 3, I went to the Octagon, opposite the spot where the explosion took place. I was posted in the top-octagon of the prison. I was there by direction of the go►ernor, and had with me a carbine and twenty rounds of ammunition. 11 could see the lat.uses in Corporation-lane, and the backs of the homice in Woodbridge-street. At about half-past 3 I saw a man come on the roof on one of the houses in Woodbridge -street. The back of the house is about eight feet from the prison wall and about four feet higher. lie bad on • white apron, dark coat, and tall dark hat—a silk hat. The third man from the tight is like the man. Sir Thomas Henry—Do sou mean the man that has the apron on now? (Allen). Witness-- Yes. From information I had previously re ceived, I took particular notice. I can't positively say whether this is the man. Sir Thorium Henry—Had he his hat on? Witness —Yes. Sir Thomas Henry—Let him put his hat on. (Allen did so. After looking at him with the hat on the witness contiouedl-1 believe be is the man. The explo don took place ■ few minutes after. I then could see no more as I was thrown from the window. John Gold.mith, 24-1 C.--On Friday, December 13. I was sent to Clerkenwell on special duty. I was in sniform. I was standing opposite the prison gate about half-past 3. I PAW Jeremiah Allen, Timothy Des mond, and the woman Ann Justice. They were stand mg At the comer of St. Janies•-walk, where the beerahop is. I kept watch upon them for about five minutes, when Allen left Desmond and Justice at the corner and walked up Strutton's-yard. He was away about eight or ten minutes ;he returned with another man not in custody. Dr-wooed sul Justice were standing at the comer of St. James's-walk. When Allen and the other man joined Dement] and Justice they conversed for about rive minute., when Desmond and the man not in custody left Allen and Justice standings* the corner, and walked down Short's-Luildings. The first turning on the light down Short's-buildings from the prison gate leads into Corporation-lane. Instead of turning down the n•irrow path, they went round to the right, got by the .folly Coopeis, which leads into Rosoman-street, and that leads into Corporation-lane. I spoke to Ranger, Ind from what he said to use I gave dt.ections to Sutton, who followed them up Roaoman-street. The explosion took place about 10 or 12 minutes after Sutton had lift us. I then went to the gate of the Prison. Ranger came out. Allen and Anne Justice were then running up St. James's-walk towards Clerken woililreett. They were in St. James's-walk, at the corner of St. James's -street. Allen was in front, and the woman MEE :EXPRESS; MONDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 30, 1867. close .behind.! They were both stopped in St. James's walk. Allen was knocked down by Ranger, whom I assisted in apprehending him. They were both taken back towards the prison. I saw Timothy Desmond come running round the corner from Short's-buildings into St. James's-walk. Sutton caught hold of him by the left hand. Mr. Poland—Where was Sutton ? Witness—He was walking back with us to the prison. He had Anne Justice in custody. He handed Desmond over to the custody of a private person. The three were then lodged within the prison. I saw Sutton, directly after the explosion. He came almost immediately, run ning round the corner of the passage from the direction of Roseman-street in the corner by the Jolly Coopers, where the posts are. Mr. Harper now stated that though he had hitherto at tended only for Timothy Desmond he now appeared also for William Desmond and Nicholas English. In cross-examination by Mr. Harper, the witness said, I did not sea the three persona, English' and the two Deemonds, go into the public-house with Justice. I saw Anne Justice speak to Timothy Desmond. While Allen was away I did not see . Timothy Desmond and Justice go into the public house. [The cross-examination at some length entered into points of detail only intelligible by the aid of the plan, to which constant reference was made, and upon which the constable, by, Sir T. Henry's dire ction., marked tho ' spot at which be lost sight of the prisoners.] Just before the explosion I only saw Allen and Justice there. I did not see Desmond. They were at the corner. I could not see round the corner to see whether any one was standing with them on the other side. After the explosion I did not see Timothy Desmond ran towards the pnson. Sutton came running round the corner before Desmond did. They did not come through Bridewell-walk, but on the contrary side of the Jolly Coopers, crossing the corner of Clerkenwell- close. They were amused as they are now, except that they had black hats on. I was on special duty, to watch anyone I saw loitering anywhere round and about the prison. I did not notice any one going in. They would not be admitted at that time, as it was too late. Mr. Harper—There might be some. Witness—l could not say. I did not see any one go in. I did not see William Desmond or English there. Mr. Harper—You are quite sure they were not there! Witness—No. I did not see them. Mr. Lewis put no questions to this witness. Allen—Did you see me go into the publie.honse for a pot of beer in a bottle! Witness—No. I did not. Allen—Did you see me drink the beer ? Witness—Ne. Allen—Did you see me there when Inspector Thomson went in? Witness—No. I did not Me him go in. Allen—You know him' Witness—l know Inspector Thomson, of course, but I did not see him go in. I was not there when he went in. I sew him come out. Allen—l saw you there when he went in. Witness—He was in before I came. William Alfred Worth, upwards of 20 years gatewarder at the Clerkenwell prison, deposed about half•pat 12 o'clock on the 13th, or may be a little earlier, Allen came to the wicket and asked if anyone bad been in to see Casey. I gave him an evasive answer. Sir Thomas Henry—You did not wish to afford him the information? Witness—No. About 10 minutes afterwards, Anne Jostice,lwhom I had not seen before came to the wicket and asked to see Casey who had been in there about three weeks, it was the third remand. I gave her the pass without any number of the cell. That was the course adopted with Burke and Casey, but contrary to the usual course with other prisoner'. I don't remember her saying she was (related to Casey. She would be asked about that, in the ordinary course at the next gate. I had spoken to Knowles after Allen called, and he went out after him. While Anne Justice was in the prison ,which was about& quarter of an hour,Allen stood opposite all the while. When she came out she passed him on the right. A sort of recognition took place as I observed from their eyes, but they did not speak together then. The woman went on to the middle of Short's-buildings. Afterwards I saw them conversing at the corner by the beer-shop, and they con tinued so till I was relieved, at 10 minutes part 2. I was then absent an hour exactly. I came back at 10 minutes past 3. When I came back I saw Allen and Justice there still. 'omitted to mention that before I went awayto dinner I saw Allen leave Justice, and go towards the east end of the prison wall. He was away about five minutes, and when he returned, walking back leisurely, there was with him a man wearing a brown coat and a black billyeock bat, with a tuft of sandy beard on his chin. He was a perfect stranger to me. When they came to the top of St. James's-walk they separated. The stranger went up SL James's-walk, and Allen returned to Justice. Stru ton's-ground is not a public thoroughfare, but there is a passage through, and the persons who own the yard some times open the gates and allow persons to go through. If these gates were open persons could get through into Cor poration-lane. The witness was subjected to a good deal of farther examination, after which the evidence of Police-con stable 244 G was taken, and the ease was proceeding when our report left. LONDON AND AMR PLATE DANK (LIMITED).--(THIS DAY.) The fifth annual meeting of the shareholders was held as noon at the London Tavern, Kr. Joie( HACKBLOCIE in the chair. The following report was presented: " The directors have the pleasure to report the con tinued satisfactory progress of the bank, and that after amply providing for all bad and doubtful debts, adding 15,000/, to the reserve fund (now amounting to 143,000/.4, they are enabled to recommend • dividend for the half year ending September 30 of 5 per cent., with a bonus of 21 per cent , making together (with the interim dividend of a per cent., paid in June) 121 per cent. tor the past year, carrying forward 7,0011.9 a. 3d. to profit and loss new acoount. The directors have availed themselves of Mr. Green's visit to England during the past summer to obtain from him the fullest information with regard to the details of the manage ment of the branches, and they anticipate that solid and permanent benefit to the bank will result from the know ledge thereby obtained. The expediency of opening • branch at Cordova, in anticipation of the completion of the Central Argentine Railway in October next, having been pressed upon the attention of the director, they were in duced to commence business there, upon a small scale, on 12th day of August last, ander the manage ment of Mr. Barrellier, in order to take advantage of the large extension of trade expected to follow , the completion of the railway to that city. The directors have much satisfaction in acknowledging the valuable services of the resident managers and staff of the head-office and branches during the past year. The directors who retire from office in rotation are Messrs. Arming, East, and Elin, who offer themselves for re election. Mr. Henry Sewell and Mr. John S. Ricotta, duly qualified shareholders, offer themselves as candidates for seats on the direction. The dividend warrants, free of income tax, will be hutted, payable on the 3rd day of January nowt." The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report and accounts, congratulated the meeting on the continued p of the bank. The most ample provision had been I e for bad and doubtful debts, and if the board had erred at all in that respect it was on the right aide. Con sidering the abundance of money, and the low rates of interest which bad ruled in the River Plate, viz., 3 or 6 cent, against 12 per cent. in the preceding year, the dividend of 124 per cent, for the past year awned to him very satisfactory. (Hear, bear. It had been proposed to place the reserve fund beyond th e control of the directors, but to thatthe directors could not assent. The reserve was now used as part of the capital, and it could not be withdrawn without a considerable re duction in their business transactions, and • corresponding reduction of dividend. No such scheme had been carried out in any of the great London joint-stock banks ; and he could not conceive a body of directors having an atom of self-respect consenting to be placed in such • position. One of the chief elements of their success hitherto was the progressive reserve fund, and the direc tors could not recommend any change with to it. During Mr. Green's recent visit to "Md land, the board made • careful investigation of the stete of the company's affairs , and the result was most satisfactory. The taw branch at Cor dova would have the advantage of Mr. Green's per venal superintendence, and there was reason to believe that it would prove a valuable adjunct. He concluded by intimating that in isonsequence of bad health he was re tiring from the office of chairman of the board, and that Mr. G. H. Holt would succeed him. After some discussion, the report and accounts were adopted, and a dividend of 74 per cont. for the half-year declared, making, with the previous interim dividend 124 per cent. for the year. EGYPTIAN COMMERCIAL AND TRADING COMPANY (LIMITED). The annual general meeting of the shareholders was held at 1 o'clock, at the Terminus Hotel, Cannon street; Mr. PABCOZ Do Paz Clazitrem, in the chair. The report stated that the amount of easels that had been recovered in cash and government securities was 105,000/., and that in effect ing thew) settlements a lose of about 9 per cent. on the valuations in the last balance-sheet had to be sustained. The director@ joined in the opinion of the Alexandria management, that, owing to the present seri ous depreciation in the value of land and general proper ties in Egypt, a further reduction must be made upon the estimate submitted to the last meeting, and accordingly 60,000/. additional had been written off. Since the date of the last balance-sheet 11. per share, amounting to 113,1331. had been repaid to the shareholders; and, as directed by the extraordinary general meeting on the Bth of April, 1b67 , the purchase for extinguishment of 13,481 shares, amounting to 33,709/. 10s., had been made. The liabilities) had also been reduced by 78,0001. The directors were applying themselves earnestly to the further reduction of the company's liabilities, and the realization of the 'meta, which, as received, would be available for distribution amongst the shareholders, as they might determine. The Csanutasi in moving the adoption of the report and accounts, referred to their statements as showingtre r i: present position of the concern. He also read an extract from a letter just received from the company's manager in Egypt (Mr. landau) to the effect that he had reduced the ' items of which the company's asset. were composed to the point which he considered in accordance with the general circumstances of the case, and that it would have been contrary to has sense of veracity to curtail them less. Many of the native people having been unable to fulfil their engagements the properties had come into the hands of the Viceroy, who had issued to the company bonds in respect of them payable at various periods within seven years. After some discussion the report was adopted, and the proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to the chair man and the other directors. Mr. Woods, the governor of Cardiff gaol, has re signed. He is 86 years of age, and has been governor 40 years. At Paris to-morrow M. Michel Chevalier will commenoe his course of lectures on " Political Economy" at the College of France.

BOROUGH HOP MARKET.-(THIS DAY.) Messrs. Pattendan and Smith report there is rather more inquiry for all descriptions, especially for good caloryforeign, foreign, which move off steadily at the reduced rates. • THE GREAT EASTERN RAILWAY.—By a bill which is to be introduced into parliament during the ensuing session, it is proposed to vest the Bishop Stortford, Dun mow, and Braintree line, in regard to which there has been so much discuvaion, in the Great Eastern. The balance due to the contractor, Mr. Bramey, is to be settled by arbitration, with interest from June 30, 1867. Upon payment of this balance the Bishop Stortford, Danmow, and Braintree line is to become part of the Great Eastern, as if it had been conveyed by deed pursuant to the Great Eastern (Bishop fitortfordke., Purchase) act, 1865. THE NEW LAW ON VACCINATION.—On Wednes day next the act passed in the late session to amend and consolidate the laws relating to vaccination in England, will come into operation. Where unions and parishes are not divided into vaccination districts, the guardians may make districts and alter the lame, subject to the approval of the Poor-law Board. The guardians may enter into contracts with medical practitioners to be " public vac cinators," or when the existing contracts terminate new contracts are to be made with the approval of she Lords of the Privy Council, and their lordships aro to prescribe the qualidsation of the medical practitioner, and may allow one shilling in each case for successful vaccination. The fee to be paid by guardian, is to be ls. 6d. in each cue within a mile, and 2s. under two miles, and :is. above that distance from the residence of • public vaccinator. Certificates of vaccination are to be transmitted to the registrar of the district, and when the operation is per formed by a non-public vaccinator a certificate is to be forwarded. On a child being registered, the registrar is to give within seven days a notice to the parent that the child be vaccinated within three months under • penalty of 20s. Where it is supposed that a child under 14 has not been vaccinated, notice is to be given, and in defaul tof the child being then vaccinated, a penalty to be imposed. It is an offence to inoculate with vario lons matter for the small-pox, and the offender to be liable to a month's imprisonment. There are 37 sections, and a schedule of forme to be used to enforce the new law, which is to be cited as " The Vaccination Act of 1867." Nnw Acre or PARLIAMENT. —On Wednesday next, being the let of January,lB6B, a considerable number of the ac 4 of the last session of parliament will oome into operation. The most imnortant of these to the profession is cap. 142, The County Court Act, 1867. Among those of chief importance to different classes of the public are esp. 103, The Factory Acts Extension Act ; cap. 124, The Merchant Shipping Act Amendment Act ; and cap. 146, The Workshops Regulation Act. —Solicitors' Aunts/.

In the stock markets to-day there is little busi ness, apart from that connected with the settlement, which is now in course of completion. It appears to be fully expected that the account will be ar ranged without the announcement of any failure in the Stock Exchange—a fact which indicates much with respect to the stability of the members, considering the wide extent of the fluctuations in railway shares during the peat fortnight. Most secu rities are flat, the future course of Continental affairs being still regarded with a vague feeling of distrust. The Fenian agitation also tends to check purchases. A very large arri val of specie, as referred to below, and the knowledge that a further important total is on the way from Australia and America, have had no favourable influence upon prices. Consols are still offered, and have experienced a fresh decline of 4 per cent. Railway stocks and foreign bonds are dull, but quotations generally are unchanged, in the absence of dealings. The discount market is rather quiet, but an increased demand is expected later in the after noon. As usual, a very active inquiry will doubt less prevail to-morrow, the last day of the year. The lowest rate for bills is 15 per cent. In the Stock Exchange short loans on English govern meet securities are in strong demand, in connec tion with the settlement, at 2 per cent. Consols are quoted 925 to 5, ex div., both for money and the account (January 7). The Three per Cents. Reduced and New Three per Cents. have declined to 914 to 92. Railway stocks have been little dealt in, and with the exception of a rise of # per cent. in Caledonian, and a reduction of 4 in Great Northern A, prices are without alteration, being quoted as follows :—Metropolitan, 115 to 4 ; Great Western, 444 to f ; London and North Western, 1134 to # ; Midland, 1024 to 4 ; Lan cashire and Yorkshire, 1214 to 4 ; Caledonian, 70 4 to 714 ; South Bastern, 664 to I ; Great Eastern, 31 to 4 ; Great Northern A, 1084 to 109 ; London, Chatham, and Dover, 171 to 18 ; North British, 335 to 34 ; Brighton, 484 to 49 ; Berwick, 984 to 994 ; and York and North Midland, 91 to 4. The foreign stock market exhibits a drooping tendency, but prices generally are without varia tion, the dealings being upon a very limited scale.' Turkish of 1865 have declined 4 per cent., viz., to 324 to 4, while Italian of 1861 have improved to the like extent, the present price being 444 to 4. Turkish of 1862 are at 605 to 614 ; Greek, 12 to 4 ; Spanish Pas sive, 254 to 4 ; ditto New Three per Cents., 354 to 4 ; Egyptian of 1864, 844 to 855 ; and Mexican, 154 to I. United States 5-20 bonds and Erie Railway shares are unaltered, at 724 to 4 and 484 to respectively, but Illinois Central are 4 better, at 884 to 894. Anglo-American and Atlantic Telegraph Eight per Cent. Preference shares are 2s. 6d. higher, at 19 to 1. and 45 to 4 respectively. There is a moderate inquiry for bank shares, at steady quotations. London and Westminster are at 68 to 69 ; Union of London, 36 to 4 ; Alliance, 114 to 104 dis. ; Imperial Ottoman, 1 to 04 dis. ; and London and County, 54 to 55. The shares of the financial companies are inactive. International, 24 to 2 dia. ; London, 23 to 22 dis. ; General Credit, 24 to 25 dia. ; and Credit Foncier, 64 to 64 dis. The arrival of 851,0001. in specie and bullion is announced to-day. The Tasmanian, from the West Indies, has brought 432,0001. ; the Lincoln shire, from Port Phillip, 336,0001.; and the Heels, Minnesota, and Borussia, from New York, 83,0001. HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK. Consols ahow a fresh fall of 5 per cent., the pre sent price being 92 to 4, ex div., both for money and account. Spanish New Three per Cents., Italian of 1861, and Mexican are 4 to 4 worse, and railways are rather dull. It is worthy of remark that if the public, as usual, are indisposed to part with their stock on the eve of the dividends, there is little sign of their making bond file investments. From the fact that a very large peroentage of the " names " passed are those of bankers and other money lenders, it is evident that the bulk of the stock taken off the market goes merely into " pawn " for account of speculators. This is a class of business which bankers seem glad to cultivate, now that the channels for the remunera tive employment of their funds are so greatly narrowed ; and perhaps the operation is legitimate enough for a banker, provided it is not carried to any undue extent, and an adequate amount of " cover" is insisted upon. Recent experience shows, however, that this business is not so safe, either for the banker or for his customer, as it used to be—for the banker, because there has lately been, as in the case of Brighton, Caledonian, and Midland stocks, a fall so severe and so sudden that the bankers' cover must have quickly disappeared ; and for the customer because, in the event of the' price suddenly falling heavily, bankers are apt, upon the disappearance of the " cover," to throw stock upon the market in large masses, thus pre cipitating a collapse. It is no secret that the fall in Caledonian stock was rendered more ruinous by bankers' sales. Meanwhile, the conflict between' the opposing parties of speculators goes on ; a war of pamphlets, in some cases officially in spired, seems to be setting in ; and railway affairs are being discussed in the journals with a degree of keenness and freedom never knoa before. It is to be hopod that all this ventilation of a question of vast importance will result to the, advantage of the investing community and to the railway interest. It can hardly be imagined that the evils of the present system can be laid bare without earnest attempts being made by the go vernment and the legislature to apply those reuse- . dies, whether as regards the system of audit or of railway administration, which, in the common in terest, are so urgently required. • The China, from Boston, has brought 46,5001. , in specie ; and the Ceylon, from Alexandria, I 10,719/.

The following, on the bullion market, is from the annual circular of Messrs. Shari, and Wilkins : A gradual decline in the value of bar silver and Mexican dollars has been the prevailing feature of the bullion market during the year now drawing to its close. Tbs cruse may be looked for in the receipt from Mexico and South America of considerably increased remittances, with out any resumption in this market of that Eastern demand for silver and dollar, which at regularly recurring seasons has in former years caused such important fluctuations in their values. In the present year Is. Id. and 41. 114 d. have been respectively tee highest point attained, while the markets close to-day at the lowest quotation of the year, ss. 01. per oz. standard, and as. 101 d. per oz. This decline in the value of silver and dollars would we consider have already become more marked but for the desire on the part of the various continental banks to replenish their stocks of silver. which dui :ng the many years of the Easton drain had become partially exhausted, as well as the insi stent expectation on the part o: some that this drain must again shortly revive, leading on their part to speculative purchases for deposit in the Bank of France and elsewhere. This expectation has now to a great extent been aban doned, the best informed from the latest advices antici pating no renewal of the Eastern demand during the ensu ing year, and therefore in estimating the probable future o: the bullion market due weight must be given to the fact that the stooks of silver now held abroad are unpreina. dentedly large, andthat the imports from Mexico, Califor nia, and South America will in all probability be far mesa extensive than for many years, and that unless some poli tical crisis abroad occurs no exceptional demand will be likely to arise. In gold the fall in the Indian exchanges has caused the diversion to this country of the major por tion of the Australian supplies, while the receipts from New York are, and promise to be, on • very extensive tulip, The general tendency of the exchanges in the various gold producing countries is decidedly in favour of s ments to this country, so that large arrivals may be ilt cipated, a fact the importance of which to this moos, market will be only modified to • small extent by the alight demand now existing far the various descriptions of gold for export.

Fresh up to our market, to-day, the arrivals of English wheat were very Halted, and the quality of the samples was generally inferior. Fine dry parcels, being scares, realised Is. per qr. more money, but other aorta were a slow sale at late rates. In foreign wheat, of which the show was extensive, a fair business was concluded at fully last week's currencies. Fine malting barley was is demand, at very full prices; grinding and distilling qualities also commanded former terms. Malt was dull, with a drooping tendency in prima. The supply on offer was extensive. Oats were in plentiful supply, and good sound corn sold steadily at last week's prices. Nye was unchanged in value. Maize was quite as dear.
