It is stated that the whole of the claims of the Turkish government upon M. Mires will be liquidated iu due course. His incarceration may perhaps be only temporary.

The Liverpool cotton market continues dull and drooping. The sales yesterday were only 3,000 bales. The stoppage is announced of Messrs. Johnson and Hanson, hop merchants, &c., a respectable house.

Ledgard and Sons, bankers, held at Poole on Monday, it was resolved to agree to the proposal of the Wilts and Dorset Banking Company, to pay 10s. in the pound upon the estate being legally p l aced in their poises lion, and a further dividend when it is realised, if the property will allow it. The adjourned meeting of the Acadian Charcoal Iron Company, held yesterday, was again adjourned to Tuesday, the 12th March, in consequence of the receipt of a proposal from the solicitors to the Com mercial Bank for the amicable settlement of the litigation between the Acadian Company and Messrs. Hunter and Chowne, the bank's trustees. Messrs. Bridge, Mellor, Smethurst, and Chubb were re-appointed as a committee to confer with the directors thereon. The monthly wine circular of Mr. F. W. Coecne has the following : Although since the beginning of the month the duty pay ments upon wines have somewhat declined, the figures are still considerable. The quantity cleared in all January has not yet been officially declared by the Board of Trade, but it will be about 1,000,000 gallons, against a monthly aver age in 1837, 1858, and 1839 of 530,000 gallons. If such clearances could be maintained, but little loss would ao:rue to the Exchequer in consequence of the reduction of the wine duties. Wines generally in good demand, and prices well maintained. Brandy quiet. More activity in the rum market.

The directors of the Clarendon Mining Company of Jamaica have ie.twal their report to be presented at the annual meeting on the 22nd inst. After giving the reports from the mine, the directors observe as follous : The opinion of 3fr. Trystoning, consulting engineer to the company, so frequently expressed with regard to the im provement of the mine in depth, appears to be fully borne out by the mining reports in question. In the report of the geological survey of Jamaica (now being carried on under the auspices of government) is the following passage i n re ference to the mineral wealth of the island -" The important fact is established by clear evidence that the copper mines of Jamaica are in deposits of a much younger site than those which contain the same in the north of Europe, but as we know that the rich mines in Cuba, and a part of Tuscauy, occur in rocks of the like age, which hays been perforated by certain eruptive rocks, there it good (11111012 to hope that the mines in Jamaica may ago prove to be highl y remunerative, if work e d with taleat sea per severance. Thus the mining reports are Costumed by the facts shove stated. In order, therefore, to tally prove the mine in depth, your directors have made avail of b. 6d. per share, payable on or before the 10th April next. The accounts for the past year have been made out and audited.

INSTITUTE or ACTUARIES.—At the last ordinary meeting of this institute, a paper by Mr. Tucker was read, on the subject of the returns made by the assurance com panies, to persons assured with them. The paper gave rise to an animated discussion, in consequence of its showing that under ordinary circumstances there was very little correspondence between the payments nude and the sur plus returned ; and that in some cases the former were wholly insufficient to enable the company to perform the promises held out. The opinion was very generally ex =by the members present, that these promises were Hy of an inordinate character, and that it was not possible for any assurance company to continue to meet them fur any long aeries of years.
