It is decided by the Committee that the Stock Exchange shall be closed on Easter Monday (the 17th inst.), the day fixed for the volunteer review at Brighton. About 3,0001. in gold was sent into the Bank yes terday, and further amounts are expected to be taken there. The withdrawal of 39,0001. on Friday was quite an exceptional operation. The screw steamer Great Victoria has arrived from Melbourne with 68,0001. in gold. The amount of government bills on India, for which tenders will be received at the Bank of Eng- land on the 19th inst., will be rupees 30,00,000 ( 300 , 0001 4 A telegram from Bombay, dated the sth iost, states that the quotation for bank bills was is. 11 13-16 d., showing apparently a movement in favour of England. The application for the appointment of a settling day in the shares of the Varna Railway Company came before the Committee of the Stock Exchange yesterday, and, after considerable discussion, was adjourned for a fortnight The Brighton Railway traffic return shows this week a decrease of 6811. compared with the corres ponding week of last year. The receipts of the Great Western Railway of Canada for the week ending the 24th ult.. were 8,8061., against 15,6531. for the corresponding week of last year. The decline is accounted for by the fact that a bridge over the Genessee River, on the New York Central Railroad, has been carried away by the floods, which has interrupted the through communication. The preference stocks of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway„Company continue to meet with inquiry, and all classes are scarce in the market. Within lees than a month this company's ordinary and first preference stocks have risen 3 to 4 per cent. The rise in the Metropolitan Extension 6 per cent. B stock is likewise 3 to 4 per cent., and in the 6 per cent C stock as much as 9 per cent. The contrac tors for the Metropolitan Extension are bound to pay 6 per cent. upon the capital until a year after the lines shall have been opened. The special value of the Metropolitan Extension lines will consist in their forming a link between the railways north and south of the Thames, and in this aspect it would be imprudent to attempt to fix a limit to the traffic that may ultimately come upon them. It is only by such railways that passengers travelling from the North to the South of England can escape the inconvenience and delays which must attend pluming in cabs and omnibuses from one metropolitan railway terminus to another. The gain to the public will be equally manifest if regard be had to the immense amount of goods traffic which constantly passes from north to south of the Thames and vice send. At present. the me tropolis, with its over-gorged streets, represents the thin end of a double funnel, towards which con verge vast streams of traffic both from the north and the south. It is perfectly absurd, for example, that the hops of Kent cannot pass to the breweries at Burton-on .Trent, except by performing • difficult and toilsome progress through the streets of London. Under any other regime than ours • remedy for this state of things would have been provided long ago. As it is, we must be grateful for the relief which such a line as the Metropolitan Extension of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway, connecting, as it does, the northern and southern network of railways, is cal culated to afford. The prospectus of the Rnsaian (Vyki0111111ky) Iron Works Company (Limited) is issued, with a proposed capital of 500,0001., in 25,000 shares of 201. each, of which 15,000 are to be issued in the first instance. The object is to acquire some iron works which have been in operation for a long period at Vuicksa, in Russia. It appears that the estate extends over an area of 406,000 English acres, 270,000 of which are covered with timber, The purchase money is 60,0001, in addition to which a sum of about 35,0001. is to pay off existing charges on the prope rty , ne a lea n i l7o,oooi. will be required for working capital, making together 165,0001., the amount now proposed to be called up. The present net profit is put at 60,0001., with regard to which the prospectus states as , follows 'By arrangement with the proprietoss, and hypothecation or mortgage to the company of their reserved interest in the estate, 87,00 0 roubles (11,0001.), being about 7 per cent, per annum upon the whole capital proposed to be called up, is gua ranteed to be first paid to the shareholders of the company ; of the surplus profits (378,000 roubles or 0,0001) three-fifths will belong to the present ,; I 1 ,5 mil I rs. 10.

Tae BIRMINGHAM CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AND THE LATE Ma. COEDZN.—A meeting of the Birmingham Chamber of Oornmeros was held last evening—Mr. J. S. Wright in the chair, and the following resolution was paned :—" That this chamber desires to express its deep regret at the death of R. Cobden, Fag., IL P.. and to offer its sincere sympathy to bin bereaved family. This chamber is also anxious to record its sense of the loss the nation has sustained in the removal by death of so enlisted and Patriotic a etatesman, who has so largely contributed by his comprebensive and just views, by his no wearied ap plication and self-denying efforts to the material prosperity of his montrymen. and the development of friendly feel. log and profitable intercourse between the different nations of Europe." THE "TERRITORIAL DEMOCRACY. "—Mr. Disraeli could hardly have said a toner thing than that the American farmers are a conservative and pesoefol ekes. More than this, they form a community whose conduct and *ones are, we venture to my, at least as much influenced by the great lessons d religion sad morality as any other in the world. They love peace sod they hate war. Europe has only to let them aloes, to be sure of having nothing to fear from their hostility. But they are lase, and have the feeling, of men. and if foreign countries do desire to maiokia relations of pesos sod amity with them, foreign journalise and statesmen must not oil y refrain from meddling with them or their a ff airs, bet must observe, in tbeir comments' on them, that detour and propriety which they make it a point to display is their language toward other muskies in the whole world. Everybody bare perfectly well that if the English press were to unite in assailing French men. manners, institutions, aid eves women, with the kaoline*, ribaldry sod scorn, which he. bees poured witherst amain on those of the United Stake donee the last four yesn, the proem boo of pease would be impossible.
