For a short period the closing quotations of yesterday were maintained, but the present prices, which have been current during nearly the whole of the day, exhibit a fresh fall of fully per cent. In the share markets very little business is going forward. The only feature of in terest is the continued decline in British railway stocks, particularly in Midland and Lancashire and Yorkshire. Within the last hour the news from America hat experienced a prejudicial influence upon the stock markets generally. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Renter opened at 67fr. 25c., showing no change since yesterday. The Bourse is described as " quiet" Console are officially marked 911 and for money, and 911 and 1 for the account. The present quotations are 911 to # for money, and 911 to 1 for the 7th of February. The official busi ness report is as follows :—Three per Cents. Re duos& 911, 1; New Three per Cents., 911, 1 ; New Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 751 ; India Five per Cent. Stock, for account, 1001,f, ; ditto Bonds, 135., 9s. die. ; IC:chequer Bills, 68., 10s., 43. die. . Business in the foreign stock market is almost at a standstill. Prices are nominally unaltered. The Turkish Loan of 1864 is quoted 70 to 71, and that of 1858, 561 to 57. Sales are recorded as follows :—Russian Four and-a-Half per Cents., 921, I, ex div. ; the Spanish Committee's Certificates, ; Turkish Six per Cents., 1858, for account, 561, 57. The Oneida bee arrived from the West Indies with 79,0001. in specie. About 82,000 sovereigns were withdrawn from the Bank yesterday for New York. There were no operations in gold bullion. The Arabia, which will leave to-morrow for New York, will pro bably take a large i.mount of specie. The Bohe mian, which ,left yesterday for Portland, U.S., took only 4,0001. At Liverpool yesterday there was s good demand for cotton, and the market was very firm, but busi ness was checked as long as the result of the sitting of the Bank of England directors remained in doubt. The day's sales, however, reached about 110,000 bales. The Stock Exchange bave responded with their' accustomed liberality to the appeal on behalf of the metropolitan poor who are now subjected to privation through the severe weather. In one day the members have subscribed amongst themselves fully 1,0001., being at the rate of about 11. from each individual in the establishment. A portion of this sum has already been forwarded to the various metropolitan police-offices for distribution. In the Bankruptcy Court yesterday Messrs. Hooper and Parkinson, leather factors of Seething lane, passed their examination without opposition. The Eastern Counties Railway traffic return shows this week a decrease of 2,5801. ; the North Eastern, a decrease of 977/. • the anchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, a 'decrease of 4041. ; the Lancashire and Yorkshire, an increase of 1,0131. ; and the Midland, a decrease of 4901. The traffic on the 748 miles of the South Aus trian line of the Lombardo-Venetian Railway Company for the week ending Jan. 7 was 25,1631., being 8251. more than in the corresponding week of 1859 on the same number of miles ; and that on the Lombardo-Venetian line 4,374/., showing an increase of 1,6461. The fortieth annual general court of proprietnes of the Imperial Life Insurance O ffi ce is called for the 31st inst. We are informed that the subscription list of the Trustand Agency Company of Australasia (Limited) has been closed. Nearly twice the number of shares to be allotted have been applied for. The allot ment will be made on Monday next, and the letters will be in the hands of the subscribers on the fol lowing Wednesday. The position of the market for American se curities is noticed as follows by Messrs. D. Bell, Son, and Co. : During the pet week but very little business was traileactad in American wecuritiea, and, with few excep tions, priorr continue entirely nominal. THVILISDAT Bntlfofo. which closed yesterday at 911 "buyers" for Cc tre lo ' . 7 a di February, opened this morning at 91k, and, after advancing to 914 to 4, and falling to 914 to 9-16, closed at 914 "sellers." For money the last prise was 911 to 4. The official business report is so follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for mon, 911, 4,4, ; ditto, for account (Feb. 7), 914, Three per Ceuta.

The Five per Cent. rupee paper was very dull at, nominally, 93 to 95, and the Five-and-a-Half per Cent. at 100 to 101. India Bonds were sold at 13s. dis. Exchequer Bills sustained a fresh fall of Is. to 2a, leaving off at 10s. to ss. dis. Foreign stocks were very quiet, but prices were steady. Turkish Bonds were well supported ' • the issue of 1854 clamed at 704 to 71, and that of 1858 at 564 to 57. Mexican Bonds were quoted 21 to 4. There was no alteration to-day in the market fi r bank shares. London Discount shares met with a few inquiries. The demand for Van Diemen'e Land shares continues. London Dock stock was officially marked 56 and 551. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Bonds were dealt in to-day in the Stock Exchange at 774. _ The demand for the shares in the new Marine Insurance Companies was again very active to-day, and a general advance occurred in prices. It is rumoured that the Ocean Marine will submit a very satisfactory statement at the first general meeting, which is fixed for the sth Feb. The closing quotations for shares in new under takings to-day were as follow :--Ocean Marine In surance, 44 to m i prem. ; Thames and Mersey Marine, 14 to If prem. ; Universal Marine Insur ance I 5-16 to 1 7-16 prem. ; London and Provincial Marine, 3.16 to 5-16 prem. • East India Irriga tion, 4. to dis. ; and Frei India and London Shipping, I to I; prem. SLUM COLLISION ON THE CHESTER AND weitoxfuros 4taiLwe Y. A senutlm collision occurred on the Cheater anti Warrington Railway, yesterday morning, near to the Irredshani station. but was fortunately =attended by any fatality, although several persons were entirely shaken sad otherwise injured. It appears that the Chester and Warrington goods train, which is advertised to leave the former for the latter place at $.21.1, wax proceeding alms to. wards Warrington, and Lid nearly reached Frociehass Sta tion, when it was overtaken and run into by the Chester and Manchester express, which leaves Cheater at 9.5 A.m. The goods train must have passed all right into the Frodsham tunnel, and also out of it, or the pen. sewer ,train would not have been permitted to proceed, as two trains are not allowed to be in the tunnel at the same time. Between the Warrington end of the tunnel and the Frodsham station there is • deep cutting on a curve, and in it the collision took place. The weather was somewhat foggy, And the rails were very slippery owing to the thaw, awl the latter pre. vented the goods train from proceeding at its usual speed. The tunnel retained the steam more than usual, owing to the ramp state of the atmorphere, and the same was the nee with the cutting, so that the driver of the passenger train, owing thereto, and also to the curve here, was unable to see ahead for any distance. The consequence was that he ran right into the bresk van behind the lump, train, knocking off both hie engine buffer plates, and - smelling the luggage train break, also knocking it off the rails. The guard in this break vas wee so seriously shaken that he bad to remain at War- Antos. The driver and stoker of the passenger train escaped nainjursd, but the guard was shaken conaderably, adwas obliged to stop at Warriftt. He also received • severe cut on the forehead, and had one knee bruised. The guard's name is Marlow. Several of the presager were shaken and slightly bruised, one lady re. caving • blow on the forehead and a blow on the knee ; all, however, were able to proceed on their journey. The macaw train, which is due at Manchester at 10.25 a.m., did not arrive till 12.10 p.m. The driver of the passenger train must have been proceeding fautiously, or the conse quences would inevitably have been attended with some fatalities. The luggage train was due at Warrington 20 minutes before the arrival there 01 the passenger train. A Park correspotolent of the ludipendance Beige states that the Emperor, who has been lately studying Roman antiquities with a view to his translation of "Cs mar's Commentaries," is having a vessel built neer Asnieres, on the elect model of the ancient Roman war. galleys. SOCIETY FOR THE ENOOIIRAGEMENT OF THE FINS AlM—The society's rooms is Oonduitstreet were crowded last evening to hear Mr. Alfred Gilbert's lecture on "Yen. delrobn and his Works." The lecturer gave a lucid and discriminating account of the life and genius of this great composer, hi observations being illustrated by passages bons his works in various styles, by vocal and instrumental performer. The lecture occupied upwards of two hours in the delivery, and was listened to with marked attention, and warmly applauded. ' REHEARAAL OF THZ "MEZZIAH" AT Sr. PAEL'B. Yesterday evening there was a rehearse], under the dons, of St. Paul's, of the oratorio of the Messiah, which is to be performed on Friday, the 2:ith inst., before the Archbishop of Canterbury, the iiahop of Load," the Lord Mayor,the Sheriffs, and other dignitaries in church and state, in aid of the expenses which have been incurred in the recent sethedral restorations and the purchase of the splendid new awn, for which the dean and canons have no available sopitular revenues.

Tat Fno,er AND THE SALT TRAGIC —The merious interference with the salt trade at Liverpool, consequent upon the recent froet and the closing of the river Weaver, was yesterday (Thursday) brought under the notice of the Mersey Dock Board by Mr. Book. From Mr. Moult's marks it appears that the " country gentlemen " who manage the asks of the river Weaver have takes ao pre caution to keep open the savigatiou of the river, as they might emit y have doge, and ocasequently Liverpool h now dmaitule of salt. This hes thrown numbers of people alt of employment, sad cost the Liverpool merchants upwards of 1,0001. a day he demurrage. Mr. Souk urged upon the board the advisability of promoting the formation of the railway from Morino to Helsby, and thence to Winsford, as competition with the Weaver trustees would lower the price of salt, and heal& immensely the trade of the port.

LORD STANLEY AND THE EFFICIENCY u.- Rs rotWAIORIML—Lord Stanley, in addressing the grand jury at the Kirkdale stations, on Wednesday last. said :—" The total committals to Kirkdale was in 1858, 2,584; in 1859, 2,278 ; and in the last year, 2,022; showing a regular and considerable reduction an t he last year as compared with the preceding year, and also • diranution in 1830 as com pared with 1856. The number of juvenile offenders, to take the clam separately, committed to Kirkdale pole, shows for the last few years • similar considerable reduction. I will take them from the year 1856, because that was tie time at which the reformatory system first came into ope. ration. The number of juvenile offenders committed wag 169 in the year ; in 1857, 124 ; in 185$, 125 ; in 1859, 112; in 1860, 102 ; showing a regular and progressive diminution from 169 to 102. The average number sent to reforma tories in those five years has been 25 ; sad we see the result of the working of the reformatory sptem in the diminution of committals under that clan." _ Prrannr.an Drznovr.—The Rey. Janie.' Mit chell, minister of Peterhead, on the north-east coast of Scot land, thus writes on the necessity of a lifeboat on that im portant station :—" The population of the town is nearly 10,000 ; a large proportion are connected with the sea. We have a feet of about thirty large vessels employed in the blreenland trade ; several in the coasting trades ; sod in the herring fishing season there are upwards of three hundred boats employed. lam exceedingly cimirons that we should have a lifeboat here if possible. I could procure local sub scriptions to a considerable extent, to pay the cost of boat-house, if the National Lifeboat Institution could assist us in obtaining one of its lifeboats." There must be many benevolent persons who will at once ciasist the Na tional Lifeboat Institution to place. if practicable, a life boat at Peterhead.
