In yesterday's impression we briefly announced the destructiosi of the New Zealand packet.ship William Brown by fire, when off the Western Islands. The Willhm Brawl' was • liar vessel, about 500 tons, classed A I at Lloyd s, and was taken up by Maisie Shaw and Simile, the New Zealand emigration 'rut, and brokers, of London, for a voyage to New Ply mouth. She had a general cargo of merchandise, and some II or 12 first-elms and steerage passenger,. She sailed from ;reviewed about the 7th of last month, and all appeared to have goes well with the ship until about 6 o'clock on the evening of the 2nd inst., when she had reached the position previously mentioned. It was then discovered that a fire had broken out in her forep.rt, supposed by the bursting of some tins of nil or turpentine stowed under the forecastle. The officers and crew went down in the hope of being able to stilto the flames, bat they were unable to get near the seat of mischief. The captain and crew made another effort to extinguish the fire ; but after four hours' vigorous exertions it was apparent that the entire destruction of the ship was inevitable, and that no tins, was to be lost in abandoning her. The boats were ordered out, but owing to • heavy croon sea that wee running there was grout difficulty in lower ing them and keeping them clear of the ship ; as it was it was almost • miracle they were kept from being swamped. They succeeded legating them down, and the ship wasfieally &handmaid at 11 o clock. About 1 o'clock in the morning • brig was observed bearing towards them. which had a most marvellous effect is raising their hopes. The captain directed the gig to the brig, and she succeeded in reaching the vessel shoat 3 o'clock, and at 6 o'clock the other boats were descried. and thecrew and pamengen were safely got on board the brig. whi.di proved to be the Swedish ship Hedwig Char lotte, Stockholm, Captain J. A. Hallengrien, which ' was on a voyage to Rio. The captain of the brig saw the fire 3) miles off, and at once bore down to it, and seeing the foremast and mainmast gone, but sot a human creature about the blazing berme, he supposed they had taken to the hosts, and thought it his duty to cruise about in the hope of pi c ki ng th em ur. The peeseegers and crew speak highly of the humane and generous conduct of those on hoard the Swedish brig; but for the prompt aid which she rendered its bearing down to them they mum doubtless have all perished, awl they trust that the En lisp govern ment will sot allow this gallant service to pass enro -1 warded. They were landed at Madeira, and the brig went on to her destination. BZITI6II POSSIMIORS. i k . Ira 1 unman.

Two o'Ciocz. The funds to-day are somewhat stronger. An improvement of a per cent. has taken place in Consols. In the other departments of the Stock Exchange, notwithstanding the inactivity of business, prices are generally well supported. As regards English railway stocks the tendency of prices this morning has been rather favourable. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Renter were quoted 68fr. 07c., being k per cent. worse than yesterday. Consols are officially marked 92k, 4, and # for money, and 921, #, and for the account. The present quotation is 92% to #, both for money and the 7th Nov. The official business report is as follows : Bank Stock, 233 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 901, 4, ; ; New Three per Cents., soi, ; and New Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 761 ; Thirty Years Annuities, 1885, 16 7-16 ; India Five per Cent. stock, 1044, ;, 5 ; ditto for account, lOtt, 4 ; ditto scrip, 104% ; ditto Four per Cent. Debentures, 1863, 981 ; ditto 1864, 981 ; ditto, 1859, 98 ; ditto Bonus, 145. prem. ; Five per Cent. " enfaced" rupee paper, 96+, ; ditto Five-and-a-Half per Cent., 1031, ; lxchequer Bills, March, ss. prem. ; ditto small, 25., sa. die. ; ditto June, Bs., 11s. prem. ; ditto small, 115. preen. Turkish bonds remain dull, the loan of 1854 being quoted 80 to 4, ex div., and that of 1858, 68 to 4. Mexican and other descriptions are steady. Transactions arerecorded as follows:--Chilian Four and-a -Half per Conte., 844 ; Dutch Four per Cent. Certificates, 94, ex div. ; Italian Five per Cents., 681, 4 (exch.,2sfr.); Mexican Three per Cents., 261 ; ditto, for account, 26 ; Peruvian Four-and-seHalf per Cents., 961 ; Portuguese Three per Cents.,lBs3, for account, 464 ; Sardinian Five per Cents., for account, 814 ; Spanish Three per Cents. for ac count, 494 ; Turkish Six per Cents., 1854, for account, 80 ex div. ; ditto Six per Cents., 1858, 684, 68 ; ditto 1001. bonds, 694 ; ditto guaranteed Four per Cents., 1014. . _ _ The supply of money seeking employment has decidedly increased during the last few days. In the discount market the rate for the best bills is only 3 per cent. At the Bank of England yesterday the applications were limited. It appears that a number of the Paris bills drawn on London for account of the Bank of France have already come over, but, being of a first clans de scription, they are readily discounted privately. The rate of exchange at which the bills are to be sold at Paris is apparently to be varied from time to time ; it has just been raised from 25.31 to 25.32 k. The private letters state that there is a great scarcity in Paris of bills on London, and that but for the supply thus created the exchange would probably experience a decided movement in favour of England. _ _ _ Au Instalment of 20 per cent. is due on the Indian Loan to-day, but has been largely paid in advance. A bout 10,000/. in Russian gold coin was sent into the Rank yesterday. The bar silver by the last West India packet was sold yesterday, forlntlia • at be. Old. per ounce, show ing no change. The Liverpool cotton market yesterday was very firm, with sales to the extent of 25,000 bales. The annexed copy of a letter from the Secretary to the Treasury to the directors of the Red Sea and India Telegraph Company has been posted up in the Stock Exchange. It describes the general terms on which government propose to convert the guarantee at present enjoyed by the company into a government annuity of like amount, payable at the Bank of England. This proposal, which is to be submitted to the special general meeting of the old company on the sth Nov., confirms the view frequently expressed in these columns, that this company's stock is, to all intents and pur poses, a government security. COPY OP LETTER FROM Till SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY. Treasury-chambers, Oct. 15. Gentlemen,—The Leeds Commiasioners of her Majesty's Treasury have bad before them your letter of the 9th instant, and I am desired by their lordships to state to you in reply that they have given the best consideration to the proposition of Sir Macdonald Stephenson of which the shurtoess of the time since the receipt of your letter would allow, and an prepared to agree to she following terms : 1. To divest the existing company of all further responsi bility in respect t., the affairs of the lied Sea and India Te legraph, with a view to transferring the entire concern to the hands of a new company, on suitable terms and condi tions, should any such company be formed with an amount of capital sufficient to justify a reasonable hope of the suc cess of ita object. 2. To convert the present guarantee into a government annuity of like amount, payable at the Bank of England, as in the case of other government an. unities. It would follow from this conversion that all ea pewee of disbursements would be defrayed by the government 3. To reserve power to the government to redeem this an nuity at any time hereafter, on payment of a capital sum in proportion to the unexpired period which the annuity may then have to run. Your board is of course aware that no final step can be taken in such a matter without the appro val of parliament, but my lords undertake, on the part of her Majesty's government, in the event of such new com pany being established, to have a bill introduced into parlia ment early in the ensuing session., for carrying into effect the foregoing terms.
