A necoNDIN4; MP • CILANDOW IHCReHANT.—The mercantile community of this city Las bees con. siderably surprised during the last day or two, in coosequeuse of the sudden disappearance of one of its. members, who had occupied a prominent position ii the department of commerce with which he was more immediately connected, and who had all along borne an unimpeachable character. The person we have referred to wee engaged is the su gar trade ; and it appears th a t b e fully availed himself of the opportunity of drawing open the good offices of his private trieoda It a stated that the oldigations which be has incur red are so great that there is only too muck probability of a deficienev of 20,11111 W.; arid of this large elm his nearest rela te us and private friends aro saki to he sufferers to the extent of 12,1W'. A rumour of some transactions of so very he pourable character is pnivaleat, but to that it is not neces sary to allude particularly. The party, as we hams eaid, held a high place is the estimation of everyone with whom he was acquainted. He was always considered a young man of great probity, if sot of piety. It is stated that his emir rrssemeota have arisen from a long course of reckless speculation in auger, railways., a.—Ole ,nor Hem/4. AN I.'NVoRTI - NATI eintroatut.—A disciplo of the musical art, Passe Orthieb, who met with a melancholy death at Stuttgart, &sterns to be mentioned here, as one of th e first theoretical musicians awl hest com p./fen of awns' music of the resent time in Germany. He lived on the " high Alp in Suabia, on the no mantic rock of Drackenetein, with Darina Maim as soh, ennipanion. He hod been missed for several week., to the dismay of his friends, and now his body has been found is the so-called upper lake of the royal pleasure grounds, behind the ramie. Not well acquaiated with the locality, he w as wa lki ng t h ere on a f oggy evening, mid probably treed to moss a wooden bridge, which, however, leads only to the middle of the lake, and ends in some steps, which at the time were covered with ioe. This accounts easily for eetwient. which created sad coneternation among hie friends :cod the public in general. He was the founder of th e musical printsg.nelev, "Zuni Haydn," and of the losrnal for "sowed music" at Stuttgart. A requiem has lb. re been given for Lim, of his own oompositiolk executed In the Cecilwnvereio, under the dinettes of Herr Schutky. Tho CHAIRMAN said be did not intend the ward " adopt" to cover anything beyond the receipts and an. pereliture of the last haq.year. The report was then received sad adopted, after which the following resolution we.. agreed to : " That dividend lie, nod hereby is, declared for the h a lf. year ealed 31st December, 1160, as follows, payable to the proprietors on the register of the company on the 2ul February, 1861 :—At the rate of 51. per cent. per annum upon the perpetual preference stock of the com pany; at the rate of U. per eget. annum upon the 5 per cent. preference stock of the coup pthv ' redeemable at a premium of 101. per cent. ; at th e rate of di 10s. per cent. per annum upon the 41 per cent. preference stock of the company, redeemable at a pre mium of 101. per cent. ; at the rate of U. per cent. per An num upon the 5 per cent.. preference stock of the company redeemable at a premium of W. per cent. ; at the rate of 61. 7a 641. per cent. per annum, on the original undivided stock of the company, being for the half-year 31. 3e. od. per cent. ; at the rate of 31. per coat for the kalf•year on the ' 11' stook of the company rookie& with the 3/. per cent, paid for the first half of the year, 61. per cent. for the whole year, as riaranteril by the ' stock at the rate of :1/. 7s. 6d. per cent. for the bafflesr on the 'A' stock, being the balance alter payment of 31. per cent. to B' stock." The CHAIRMAN adverting to a proposal of which Mr. Hughes bad given notice for the reduction of the numb e r of the board, said Mr. A. F. Paull had retired, and he hoped that would induce Mr. Hughes to withdraw his resolution. Mr. Htlatve laid he would do so on the understandiug that the board would not fill up the vacancy. The CH tuniAx observed that it could not be filled up without the consent of the shareholders. ANoTIIEP. CRINOLINE AceIDKNT.

The adjutant le the only member of the volunteer corps on whom the commanding officer can depend for the instruction of officers and men, and on whom attendance at drill be an rely with confidence. Officers who have learned in the regular army and in active service the real duties of • soldier, be he volunteer or enlisted man, aunt be expected to remain and work cheer. full} in a position in which they find themselves without authority, or exposed to the operation of the caprice, and ignorance, and folly of young men, officers only in name, who attend chance parades and marching,. out. The adjutant should have actual rank in each to place him on the level of the captains, The :: f tro'rities should demand some sort of qualification for commissions to the different grades, and require a certificate of qualification Iron, the commanding officer and adjutant before wetting a candidate, and then the service would not long have to complain of incompetent officers, whose places —were the volunteer force ever called out—must inevitably be supplied by others fit to corm mend, and to have the lives of valuable men entrusted to their charge.—Arsity sad Nary Cda:et te. THE NOUGHTS= SHAM FIGHT ON EARTHS. MONDAT.—This event seems to excite AS Ma attention in Mid sad West Sussex as ever, and we are told that • holi day is jammed in this town on the ocionsion. The fight will either take place at Plum , about three miles from Lewes, or at, about four miles from Brighton, where arrangements will be made to keep the ground clear for the drill of 15,000 men. The whole of the Sussex corps, and we should suppose the East Surrey also, have been invited, and most of them are willing and even anxious to take part in the proceedings, but the ultimate decision rests with the lord-lieutenant, the Earl of Chichester. We un derstand that Lieut.-Colonel Moorsoin, Commandant of the 3rd battalion, has written to Lord Ranehigh, accepting the invitation should the Lord-Lieutenant see no ob jection to the proposition. As regards the Std battalion, should the fight take place at Plumpton Plain, it would muster, by rail, at Lewes, and march thence to the spot; but on the other hand should the event come off at Rottingdean, it is must probable the muster would he at Palmer or Brighton. Should Plumpton Plain, how ever, sa seems probahle, be eventually preferred, the main body of the volunteers under their commandant, Viscount Ranelagh, would of course leave the rail at Hassock's-gate, which is only a couple of miles or so front Plumpton. We donot think the matter has been token up in the extreme east DI SOMA, but in this neighbourhood, and also in West Sussex, t interest is excited in the event, and should cheap fa nse o ff ered, we have no doubt Hastings and Bye would also be in the field. —Sussex Ex prem.

Notwithstanding the favourable character of the variations shown by the Bank accounts, the funds to-day are flat. A fall of per cent. has taken place. The state of the money market is the principal cause of depression. British railway stocks are decidedly heavy, and have fallen 1 to per cent. Midland suffers chiefly. There have been further sales on provincial orders. The Stock Exchange generally is extremely dull. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at 68fr. 15c., being the same as the last price of yesterday. The scrip of the new Indian Loan is steady, at 100 to I. Consols are officially marked 91i and 1 for money, and 911 and for the account. The present quotations are 911 to ti for cash, and 94 to for the 7th of March.

The Turkish Loan of 1858 is rather flatter, at 54 to 1, whilst that of 1854 is quoted 69 to 70. Mexican Bonds are steady. The Spanish Coupon Certificates do not recover. Sales are re corded as follows :—Brazilian Old Five per Cents., 1001; Mexican Three per Cents., for account, 231, jj, ; Portuguese Three per Ceuta., 1853, for account, 46/, 46 ; Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 911, 1 ; Spanish Three per Cents. for account, 481 ; the Committee's Certificates, 6, 51 ; Turkish Six per Cents., 1668, for account, 54, 1,1; ditto 1001. bonds, 56.

A belief on the part of the partners that they would be able to resume payment accounts for the delay in convening the meeting. A meeting of the creditors of Mr. E. Vitalis, in the same trade, is also called for Wednemlay next, and of the creditors of Messrs. Oliallonui and Co, Ceylon merchants, for Monday next. A printed paper has been circulated in the Stock Exchange intimating the desirability of winding up the Ottoman Bank. As the statement com mences with recounting the present extremely =- satisfactory position of commercial affairs inTurkey, the proposal to take such a momsnt to wind up a bank which acts in the midst of these affairs scarcely deserves to be met by argument. If it be the.object of the movers in the matter to arraign the management of the direction, the general meeting, which will take place at tho latter part of March, will afford them an opportunity. Bond fide holders are hardly likely to damage their own interests by taking part in this movement. The public will not refuse tho request contained in the following letter from the Chairman of the Great Western Railway Company of Canada : ---- ATS. — i Cleatag pier.

A special general meeting of the shareholders of the Commercial Bank of London is callod for the 19th of March, to confirm the "agreement entered into by the board with the London and West minster Bank for an advance by the London and Westminster to this bank, and for the transfer of the business." • Thu sixth and final call of 21. is to be paid on the shares in the Great Southern of India Railway Company by the 13th of April.

These changes are of a more favourable charac ter thanhad been generally anticipated. The in crease in the reserve is nearly half a million. The increase in the coin and bullion is rather important, occurring, as it does, in f ce of a drain to America. The large increase in the Treasury deposits is prin cipally due to the payments on the new Indian Loan. The decline of more than a quarter of a mil lion in the private securities is likewise a satisfac tory feature. There is no explanation in these figures of the last rise in the Bank rate of discount. The amount of silver bullion held by the Bank is precisely the same as last week. The Gazette specie statement for the week ending Wednesday last gives the following totals, via. : Imports of gold, 53,5161. ; exports of gold , 97,861. ; imports of silver, 142,981/. ; exports of silver, 578,0071.
