The Press. — London, England, 1857-11-14 00:00:00

THE PRESS, NOVEMBER 14, 1857. 1118 Consols, which left of on Friday last at 881 to A for account, were suppurtod by investments on the part of the public, who absorbed all the stock placed upon the market by the banks and others who were obliged to sell ; and at a subsequent period the market was strengthened by rumours relative to Government interference with the Bank Act. This imparted great firmness to holders, and caused the dealers to make wide prices. Yesterday the remark able fact was disclosed of a difference of no less than one per cent. between the price for money and the price for account, caused by the Bank of England being heavy sellers of stock on the one hand for notes, while, on the other, there was as heavy a speculative demand for the account, owing to the expectations of the immediate appearance of a Go vernment letter. The fluctuations in both cases were about one per cent. Eventually the Government letter made its appearance, and in consequence of it Consols left off for account nt 901 to I. This morning Consols opened at 901 to I, but a heavy sale of 500,000/. stock by the Bank forced them down, though the public were buyers to 891 to I, at which they left off flat. Little business has been done in the Foreign Market, and the fluctuations have been unimportant.

CORN EXCHANGE—The Frenoh Government having issued a decree permitting the export of native produce from France, great heaviness has pre7ailed in the demand fur all kinds of wheat—both English and foreign—this week.

The successful results of the last haltcentury have proved, beyond question, that POWLANDS' MACASSAR OIL poss esses peculiarly nourishing powers in the growth, restoratifronton, and improvement of the human hair. It prevents it falling off or turning grey, strengthens weak hair, ble cleans it fron d scurf and dandritf , and makes it beautiful l y soft, plia, and glossy. In the growth of THE BEARD, WHISKERS, AND MUSTACHIOS it is unfailing in its stimulative operation. For children it IS especially recommended as forming the basis of a beautiful head of hair. In dressing the hair nothing can equal its effect, rendering it so admirably soft that it will lie in any direction, and imparting a transcendent lustre.
