ALL- „ SOPP and SONS are compelled to take notice of an announcement of L iterature and Art, in " saving many a bitter bearing the name of Professor LIEBIG, to which an invidious pub pang to the lofty soul of a JOHNSON and many a cor licity has been given. Messrs. A.LLSOPP and SONS regret this - a s they hav unworthy o suppose that that advertisement coding anxiety to the amiable, the exemplary, the necessity, has emanated from an jealousy on the part of those who should rather have shown gratitude for the labour and expense most accomplished, but over-worked and over-toiled which Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS have not spared to remove Poet of Keswick." These illust ra ti ons, h owever the otherwise ruinous prejudice Imp en di ng the Pale and Bitter Ales - s of this country from the mistake of a French chemist. were not among the most apposite that could have Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS would now call the attention of the atoll° to the following point s: _ been adduced. For Doctor JOHNSON suffered the pangs That the original letter of Baron LIEBIG is addressed to Mr ENRY ALLSOPP, Indi v id ua l ly.

While, with re these he, specifics ly, bounds the opinion reported by him to Mr. HENRY ALLSOP.P in that letter—the general mention of the Bur- gard to Doctor SOUTHEY, if we mistake not, at the ton brewers being incidental. And thus, then, the letter of Baron LIEB iG having been written period of his demise, he left a good round sum of for Messrs. ALLSOPY and SONS, and sent to Mr. HENRY ALL- 12,0001., or thereabouts—saved, it is true, from the SOP?, on the subject of Messrs. ALLSOP and SONS' ALES, they, having, as they had, Baroa LIE AIG'S authority to do so, were fully severely earned proceeds of his laborious and indefa entitled to publish it. tigable career i n au th ors hi p. Messrs.

Burton-upon-Trent, Aug. 25, 1832. to acc rue from the nobleof h enterprise benefit serprise which in the Guild, presided over by Sir BULWER LYTTON, has been recently commenced. The catalogue of those illustrative cases would, if complete, be only too ex. tended in number and too terrible in significance, The prototypes of poor Jowl BURLEY might be ex cluded from the list by the more " correct" cl ass o f moralists, but the guiltless victims of misfortune among the bankrupts in the literary profes sion would still present to our contemplation a spectacle sufficiently sorrowful and disastrous. Observing the brilliant success which has already at tended the development of the Guild of Literature an d Art, we can now, h a p p il y, lookant f its triumph o r c w o a m r d with confidence to pletion as:an enterprise. The sinister predictior. s made by its different opponents have been altogether debarred from fulfilment. Those who insisted that the dramatic representations of Not so Bad as we Seem would play the dickens with the regular drama, have found to their surprise, and we doubt not also to their chagrin, that good has alone resulted from the uwnhdoelretaskeing series of ent er t a i nments . If t h e future of the extent be only to some reasona b le comparable to the pant, we shall find the happiest prophecy of its principal originator fulfilled. It will then be perceived in the end how many blessings may result from affording timely aid to the lesser cultivators of the intellect, from what some might be disposed to term the gilding of the gingerbread of art and literature. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Illoniteur contains the following :—" Some foreign journals announce as near at hand the recall of the French troops now in garrison at Rome and Civita Vecchia. This piece of news is as devoid of foundation as the commentaries with which it is ac companied, and we can affirm that it is at Rome above alltheatreiatdwiinll the m p eetwaittriLt.h._el„east The Government credence. has " wr to-day received the add resses from the councils general of all the d e p ar t ments. Two only remain to be known—those o f t h e G ard and the Centel. There is un a n n o i occasion mity wi t for hi us to remark a onth of the liberati ng power of LOUIS NAPOLEON. It is felt that F rance h as spoken. " c e on a s d ol m id i a ra ti b o l n e The Pattie states that the municipalities of an im mense number of towns have opened unlimited credits for preparations to receive the PRINCE PRESIDENT on his approaching visit to the south. Mr. C. P. RONEY, accompanied by Mr. W. KEOGH, M.P., had an interview on Tuesday with Lord COWLEY on the subject of the Great Industrial Ex hibition which is to be held in Dublin in the mouth of May next year. They represented to his Excel lency how highly advantageous it would be to the undertaking if a certain quantity of the beautiful articles for which France is so justly celebrated could be exhibited on that occasion, and requested his Lordship's good offices in enabling them to attain that result; they referred in particular to the beau tiful objects produced at the manufactories of Sevres, the Gobelins, and Beauvais, a few of which, they said, would prove so great an ornament to an exhi bition of works of industry and art. His Lordship expressed his earnest wish to promote the success of the Exhibition, and assured those gentlemen that he would be ,happy to do all in his power to assist them in carrying out their wishes. The Ami de l'Ordre of Digne states that the num ber of pardons or commutations of punishment granted by the PRESIDENT of the Republic to persons of the department of the Basses-Alpes condemned for the events of December is 74. Prince CHARLES LOUIS BONAPARTE, who is at this moment attending the scientific congress at Belfast, has been unanimously elected member of the council-general of the Ile-Rousse, in Corsica. M. NAPOLEON BONAPAR TE h as b een also elected member of the council-general of Corsica, but he has not ac cepted the office, to which he was named without his having been consulted. The Minister of Marine has received, by the last India Mail, an account of the Governor ad interim of the French establishments in India and the various authorities and troops under his jurisdiction having aken the oath of allegiance to the PRESIDENT of the Republic. The PRINCE PRESIDENT of the Republic, by de cree of the 28th ult., accords " letters of rebabilitas tion" to M. DESPANS-CURIERES, formerly General of Division and Mi n i s t er o f W ar, who was con d e mnec by the High C our t o f P eers f or hav i ng b ee n con cerned in the c e l e b ra t e d b r ib ery case o f M. TESTS, Minister of Public Works. The Court of Appeal of Rouen, on Saturday, held what is called a solemn audience to enregister the letters. About 300 men of the 23d regiment of the class of 1845, in garrison at Roueu, have just received their discharge, alth oug h their ull time of service is not quite completed. The measure, it is said, is to be general. The Government appears to have renewed its orders to prevent the assemblage at Paris and at Lyons of too great a number of workmen de prived of the means of support. The Prefect of the Rhine has just addressed a circular to the mayors of his department, ordering th e m to refuse passport s for Paris or L yons to any one who has not the means of supporting himself; or whose previous conduct is known to h a ve b een i mproper . A similar circul ar has been seat to the mayors of the department of th e Meuse. ITALY. Instead of from 1,500 to 1,600 workmen being Pm ph:led as formerly in the arsenal at Venice, there are at present upwards of 2,400, who are engaged either in building new ships, or rendering old ones fit for war service. Towards the end of harvest a new frigate of 60 guns is to be removed from the stocks ; the finishing stroke is just being given to the new Steamer Custozza, of 200-horse power, and the steamer Bentz', of 40-horse power, which is destined for navigation in shallow water, is now ready to have the engine put in. The frigate Venus, the corvettes Adria and Orestes, and the brig Pola are being re paired, and preparations are being made for building a new schooner. The purchase of timber, hemp, and iron goes hand in band with these works, and ar rangements have been made with English ship builders for the building of two propelled frigates of 40 guns each. On account of the shallowness of the canals the ships of the line will not be built at Venice, but at Pula. EGYPT. We find the following in the Debats :—" Accounts have been received from Alexandria to the 21st. The Envoy of the Porte, ALIF-BEY, arrived there on the 1911 , and o n th e f o ll ow i ng day procee d e d to Cairo. , r , is charged by the Divan to hand to the Viceroy the firman relative to the introduction of the Tanzirnat into Egypt, with the modifications decided on between ABBAS PACHA and FUAD EFFENDI, and since approved of by the Porte. This Envoy had been expected with great impatience, and serious uneasiness was beginning to be felt at Cairo and at Bennab at the little eagerness shown by the Porte to give its official sanction to the convention of May last ; for it was known that FUAD EFFENDI bad loudly expressed his disapprobation of the brutal conduct adopted against SAID PACHA, and it was feared that the presence of that Prince at Constanti• nople, where he bad been called on to come after his journey into Europe, might change the good feelings of the SULTAN towards the VICEROY. Assuredly, the SULTAN could not remain indifferent to that in conceivable act of aggression, and be doubtless has not concealed his disapprobation of it ; but it is diffi cult to suppose that this family quarrel could in any way affect the pacific results of the conferences of Cairo. However this may be, the arrival of Ara.- BET had removed all fears, and we shall shortly learn that the Tanzimat has been promulgated with great pomp and amidst Ales promised and tong since pre pared." The Univers has nearly the whole of its front page filled with an article, the object of which is to in• crease the subscription that it has opened in aid of the funds to cover Dr. NEWMAN in his defence against Dr. Aculla.r, and which, the Univers says, amount to 10,000/. sterling, whilst the whole amount of the sub. criptions in different countries is only 3,000/. The Univers announces, as an encouragement to persons to subscribe, that Dr. NEWMAN has already begun to pay the debt of gratitude by saying mass twice a week for his benefactors. A balloon ascent was announced for Tuesday at the Hippodrome, the aeronaut undertaking to guide the balloon as he pleased through the air. It turned out a failure, the balloon having burst from bad management. This being settling day at the Bourse there was not much other business transacted.

The role of Parolles affords Mr. Phelps an opportunity of, dis playing that comic humour which has of late been brought forward almost as a new t a l en t. B y h is strong, sharp d elineation of the poltroonery of Pa miles, and that abject s erv ili ty which succeeds empty vau nting, he maintains an i nterest in an otherwise weak piece, and commands incessa n t roars o f l aug ht er . Miss Cooper was a graceful Helena. Mr. George Bennett startled us by the artistic impressiveness with which . he deliver e d the superb language of the King. It 18 only an elocutionary part, but it almost b ecame a charact er . The dresses were, as might be expected, perfect. The scenery was new, which i s a s li g ht merit—but . it Was good, which is a great one . Altogether the Rase en scene was in the best taste, as is usual at this establi s h ment, and the applause of the au dience, which wa s b estowed on the revival of the piece last night, showed th a t t h e manager ' s exertions had not been in vain, Mr. Phelps has presented the piece with all ceremony -- and scrupulous c are , an d so tar has increased the respect due to him for analogous a tt em pts. He has g o t an excellent company together, working with wonde r f ul smoothness into each others hands, and the result i s most pleasant to the eye and ear. SPAIN. The Madrid-journals of the 27th ult. have arrived. The Madrid Gazette of that day publishes the text of the postal treaty between Spain and Austria. It is to come into operation on the Ist November next. The Diario Espanol states that the negotiations for a similar treaty with England will soon be formally concluded. The bases of it have, it says, been already agreed on, and Mr. Omer, the English Charge d'Affaires at Madrid, is paying special attention to the subject. The Diario announces that M. JOSE CAMPO has been charged to execute the railway from Madrid to Valencia. M . DE SOUZA, Spanish Minister at Constantinople, has arrived i❑ Madrid to take the post of chief of the first section in the department of Foreign Affairs. According to a letter, it is not true that the QUEEN, as stated by one of the journals, is i❑ an interesting situation. The Three per Cents. were done at 454 ; the New Three per Cents. at 23k; the Debt of the first class at Eli; and that of the second at 54. OLYNIPIC THEATRE. A s light piece was produced at this theatre last night, under the title of the Master Passion. Who the wa s did not autho rtranspire, for Mr. Hoskins in formed the audience that it was confided to Mr. Farren by a gen tleman whos e modesty would not permit the management to divulge his name.

Shalders and M ~....rs. Alfred Philli ps . A new comique ballet, enti t l ed M enorella, the Water Lilly, invented by Mr. Flexmore, was also produced. Flexrnore's antics kept the au di ence i n a roar of laughter almost from the beginning to the end of the piece, which w ell deserves it s a dj ect i va l description of comic. The Rajah of Georg, attended by his suite, visited stallbe the Colosseum and Cyclorama on Wednesday evening was so delighted with teasednds of this magnifi cent e * lishment that he exp his desire that arrangements might be made for the reception, privately, of hi s pts saloon covered to view the exhibitions, and on Friday evening thheebirrown.= b th ea e ut a i t e t s en a fr t e io e n n , these ladies, who evidently were delighted with vei h h i n s g sen th se eir of fnogrethreetirinenig It was rather a 'bevel sight to see them trav,erbsei covered with their umbrellas, the eyes of the other visitors. The Rajah desired his interpreter to express paid him, and we heard from. more than o ne o f the officials that " his kg/mess was every i nc h a prince." BLACKw FIRE IN A SHIPYARD AT A.Ll,—.o n Iv d. nesday morning, at a few m inutes before two o'clo c k e A , a .re attended with a considerable destruction of property, broke out in the extensive range of premises belonging t o M essrs. Wigram and Co., the well - know n shipbuilders of Blackwell, The fire, when first discovered, had obtained a strong held of the stores, a building upward s of 150 feet long, and conti. guous to the mast-house and steam-machinery d ep o t. owi n to the m agn it u d e o f those building s, it became apparent theagt unless the flames could be soon extinguished, a f earful sacri fice of property must ensue. The private engine belonging to the firm was therefore got out a nd set to work, but in spit e of the most strenuous exertions of all present the conflagration continued to travel, so that it was deemed advisable to send to London for additional assistance. The moment the n ews arrived two engines of the London Brigade, and that of the West of England Office, started to the scene. The fire, how ever, had durin g the brief interval seized' upon a vast quantity of timber, which was blazing away with great Jury, and bad also communicated with the steam-machinery buildings. The flames were eventually subdued, but the da mage is very considerable. Unfortunately the firm was not insured. ROMAN CATHOLIC POOR SCHOOLS, KENSINGTON. —On Tuesday the friends and subscribers to this charity partook of a &jet ne at the Assembly-rooms, Kensington. The meeting was convened by the Rev. Charles Woollett, the newly -appointed Roman Catholic chaplain of the district, and was presided over by Mr. Sheriff Swift, M.P., who wa s supported by the Right Rev. Dr. Morris, Mr. Wm. Brod er, the very R ev. Cano &c. The customary compli pients were p a id to the royal fam il y , an d an address d e li vered by Bishop Mor r i s on b e h a lf o f th e poor children atte n di ng the school; who, he said, used formerly to be clothed a s well as educated; but the charity was now upwards of 100/. lizodoebt. A co l lection was then ma d e, w h en th e R ev. Mr. ' lett returned thanks, and solicited aid in behalf of the schools'. MEIDA GARRETT was verified by the event. Senhor JERVIS D'ATONGUIA holds the portfolio of Foreign Affairs with that of the Marine department. It is generally believed that the Duke of SALDANIIA went to Matra yesterday, to place the resignation of Senhor SEABRA in the hands of the QUEEN, and that the Mi nistry of Justice will be transferred to RODRIGO DE FONSECA MAGALHAENS, the Minister of the kingdom. Thus the administration is deprived of two eloquent and talented members, and is composed of the authors of the decree of the 3d December, who will un doubtedly strain every nerve to carry the capitaliza tion into effect. Five per Cent. Inscriptions are still quoted at 43k. MAN Y. The German Journal of Frankfort states that the negotiations opened for regulating the affair of the succession to the throne of Brunswick are nearly at an end. The Duke CHARLES of Brunswick is, it is said, ready to renounce formally his rights to the throne, both for himself and his eventual descendants. A 'otter from Berlin, in the Emancipation of Brussels, says : .. .J 4 Negotiations on the subject of the commercial treaty between the Zollverein and Bel gium have been for some time urged actively forward with M. NoTuoms, the Belgian Envoy at the Court of Prussia. The denunciation of the treaties of 1844 and 1852 will take place in a few days ; but it appears that the convention of 1846, connected with these treaties, and which was provisionally prolonged by that of the 18th of February last, will be maintained as an i nternational treaty until January 1, 1854. The clause concerning the denunciation of the treaty of February does not extend to the convention which concerns the reciprocal repression of smuggling." Principality of Sond ers h ausen conta i ns the law which revises the Constitution of 1849. It enacts that the ri g h ts of the people, which are in any manner hostile tc the pretensions of the Germanic Diet, are abolished; that the nobility is re-established as a se parate caste; that the censorship of the press is not re - established but that the liberty o f th e press i s subjected to great restrictions; that civil marriage is suppressed; that the right of association and meetin la regulated ; th a t th e e l ec t oral qualification is raised; ; and that the absolute veto of the sovereign is re-esta blished. The Wiener Zeit ung p u bli s h es th e pos t a l conven tion between Austria and the States of the Church, which was signed at Rome on the 30th of March, this year, and ratified on the part of Vienna on the 1 1 th of J une. clt is to come into operat ion on th e 2th of December this year, and is to remain in force five year s ; an d f rom the 12th of December, 1857, it is t o b e considered as continued annually, if no notice Is given six months before.

From the outset of this humane and beneficent project we have watched every stage of its development with peculiar solici tude.

To conclude with a Laughable e arce. Tickets to be had at the Box-office from Eleven till Four daily. stage Manager, Mr. Leclercq. In another part of this day's impression will be found the new general rules and orders of the Court of Chancery, sanctioned by the Lord Chancellor, Master of the Rolls, Lords Justices, and Vice- Chancellors. They had been for some weeks antici pated. A rumour was current that the high judicial authorities had discharged their duty, and that the appearance of the new regulations might be looked for every hour. It would, how ever, seem as though delay and procrastina tion were incidental to every proceeding in Chancery. The manuscript rules were signed on the 7th of August, but it was not until September that they were permitted to escape from the hands of the printer. 'With whom the fault lies we know not, but it is certainly not with the judges. It must necessa rily fall on some of the subordinates. The new orders appear well calculated to carry out the true intent and meaning of the Legislature to prevent the extraordinary prolixity that has hereto. fore been indulged in, and thus materially to diminish the expenses incidental to a suit in equity. The six first relate to the printing of bills and claims, which it will be in recollection has been substituted for engross ments on parchment by the recent Chancery Practice Amendment Act (15 and 16 Vic., c. 86). They direct —" 1. Bills and claims are to be printed on writing royal paper, quarto, in pica type, leaded; and the copy to be filed, is to be interlined with paper of the same description ; and also, that 2. No costs are to be allowed, either as between party and party, or as be tween solicitor and client, for any written bill, or written copy of a bill, filed under the 15 and 16 Vic., c. 86, s. 6, or for any written copy thereof, served upon the defendant thereto, or for any written brief of such bill, unless the. Court shall, in disposing of the costs of the cause, direct the allowance thereof." But this is not all. A written bill moy still be filed in cases of emergency, upon the written under taking of the solicitor to file a printed copy within 14 days. But in the event of this undertaking not being performed, the bill is (by 3:d order) to be " taken off the files of the Court without further order, the costs of the defendant to be taxed, and to be recoverable as costs between party and party are now recoverable from the plaintiff or hi s so licitor." Thi s s t r i ngent regula time will p reven t any effort to evade th e principle, and will achieve the great desideratum of having all such documents henceforward uniformly p r i nted, so that they can be consulted or referred to with the greatest facility. Th e 4th, sth, and 6th rules relate to the costs payable for instructions for bills or claims, &c., for engrossing c op i es, briefs, &c., which are fixed according to the very moderate scale specified in the schedule. One halfpenny per folio only being allowed for c o pi es, of which each defendant is only permitted to claim from the plaintiff ten copies as a matter of ri g ht . One of the chief advantages in the system of printing i s th a t copies can be multiplied to any extent, at a charge very little beyond that of the paper on which they are printed. We cannot, therefore, see the necessity of limitin g th e num ber to be supplied, on adequate payment, provided application be made before the types be distributed. The next series (to rule 11) relate to amendments, which may be made by written alterations in the printed bill or claim, and by additions on the page s interlined, whenever, according to the present prac tice, an amendment may be made, without a new en grossment ; and a copy of these amendments is to be served on defendant's solicitor, which should be deemed good service on the defendant. None of these orders, however, apply to bills or claims filed before the Act came into operation. They neces sarily remain under the former practice. It i s to be regretted that the regulations with respect to printing are limited to bills and claims; a e r d w . ers, affidavits, and other portions of th e pro eugamay still b e engrosse d. F o r th e sa k e of luniformity, it wo u ld h ave been exceedinglyf the Court desirabl e that every document should have been of the like di mensions, so o placed on the files o printed in simil a r type, and on pap er bill as to be easily bound up together. these orders, which is A concise form o r given in the appendix to no_ certainlyr differs very materially thereesorted to. A form of approaching from the thrice-told tale henceforward to.scandal, answer excuse c a u l s s e o g f i o v r e n a , ne; htihnag w t be no Under the statute the interrogatories a prolixity, or impertinence. system. are not to be contained in or annexed to the bill. A form is also rules for the interrogatories, which will mitigate, if not entirely remove, that which Was g grievances of the old given by these It would have been better had the examination t aken one of the most cryin g place before the judge; but as it was decided other wise, the new rules, with respect to interrogatories appear to have been fram ed in the spi r it of the Act, to prevent the unnecessary strin gency of the i nqu i r i es . Th e p o wer of cross-examining every witness wh o h as ma d e an affidavit in a cause is also a very decided improvement, which will doubt less be productive of the most beneficial results. The new regul a ti on w i t h respec t to the for decrees or d ecreta l orders, an d al-0 for the dismis sa l o f bill s f or want of prosecution, a nd also for a ddi ng to decrees, are all calculated to prevent the motion vexatious delays that have heretofore given un unfor tunate notoriety to the name of " Chancery." Hence forward matters will proceed as rapidly as in t he commo n l aw courts. The orders will come into operati on on the 2d November, and will constitute fitting supplements to the sal u t ary A ct which re ceived the Royal assent on the Ist day of July last. ExTuaounr---- INARY SHIPMENT OF GOLD. --We have received intelligence by the Overland mail of the dispatch from Port Philip, on the 27th of May last, of the regular trader Medway, belonging to Messrs. Marshall and Eldridge, with a full cargo of wool, and the extraordinary quantity of 66,051 oupces of gold. The litedway abut, the middle of the mouth may be looked for PORTUGAL. At last the Government have adopted the wise measure of making some important reductions in the excessive rates of duties. For years every intelligent person has pointed out the folly of maintaining duties which only tended to encourage smuggling, or to im pede their manufactures by enhancing the cost of articles of primary necessity. A great deal more must be done before our just expectations shall be fulfilled; but meanwhile we gratefully accept the boon as the first step towards free trade. A few remarks will suffice to demonstrate the wisdom of the change. Silks were subjected to such enormous duties that it was notorious that the revenue was constantly de frauded. Scarcely tt single case of :silk handkerchiefs was dispatched through the Custom -house. Of lace, on ly a few pounds paid duty in the course of the year. Notwithstanding this , both the se art i c l es of foreign manufactur e cou ld be readily purchased in the shops. Articles of mixed materials hitherto paid the higher rate of duty, even if they contained only the smallest quantity of the more costly quality. This cause of complaint is now removed, and they will pay the duty on the predominant material of which they are composed. It will be observed that no change is made in cottons or woollens ; but as the present . decree is merely part of the proposed modifi cations, it is to be hoped that those branches of Bri tish commerce will also be eventually benefited. In the preliminary report of the tariff commission the reasons for the alterations are stated with perspicuity, and evince a right appreciation of the true principles. They are applied first to the primary principles of national industry, viz.:— Iron, duty reduced to 10Ors., about 6d. per cwt. Steel 70 200r9., about Is. „ Coal f SOrs., about 3d. Sulphuric acid, reduced from Ils. to ls. 6d. per arroba. Printing typ e 225. to 33. 19 Paper for printing „ 10s. to 43. 6d. Ornamental paper 12s. to .ss. ff The Commissioners then proceed to deal with those articles in which contraband trade was known to be carried on to a great extent, and make considerable reductions, viz.:— Velvet *** Mother 0.ip.... . f r 0 left, ......

Dog from 1 5 . 6d. to The report winds up by pointing out the necessity of reducing the import duty on colonial rodue P hut expresses a fear that this reduction would c, seri ously affect the revenue, and recommends that nothing shall be done before the system of direct taxes shall be altered by the adoption of the reparti tier' of contribution. This system, it will be recol lected, was the pretext for the revolution in .the Minho, in 1849, which occasioned the civil war. But all parties seem now to agree in the opinion that it is absolutely requisite, and must be adopted Very speedily. The rumour of the resignation of Viscount AZ. THE SHARE MAAKETS.

Besides the arrivals of Gold from Australia noticed in yesterday's Sun, viz., 15,465 oza. and 50,000!., we learn that one of Messrs. Marshall and Edridge's regu lar traders, the Medway, cleared at Port Philip on the 27th of May, with 65,051 ounces on board, say 250,000/. The letters received this morning from the Continent are not of much interest. The Government of Belgium will allow salt to bo imported in Dutch ships from Netherlands' ports on the same terms as if conveyed in Belgian vessels, The Amsterdam Stock Market, on the 31st ult., was without change, but Foreign Stecks drooped a little. Dutch Two - and-a-Half per Cents. were 64-a. The question of Life Assurance, and the neces sity of some restriction to render it safer, is discussed in the current number of the Banker's Magazine, and although we think every possible encouragement should be offered to new companies, so as to give the public the benefit of cheapness, arising from competition, there may be and doubtless is room for improvement in the management of some offices. Mr. Thomson offers the following suggestions on these points, which are worth cons id erat i on:— "It may be premature to attempt to suggest any practical remedy for the existing evil ; but having ex pressed myself unreservedly ou the present state of things, I shall not hesitate to give my views as to such rem edy. I shall not attempa at this time, to suggest en entire system, but I shall note the leading features of the plan I consider essential for what is aimed at, provided the Government take upon themselves, in any way, the watching or superintending of such societies. "1. That the balance-sheets of all life assurance companies in Great Britain be annually recorded in a set form, not for the purpose of being made public, but for the use of the Government and their auditor. That periodical balance-sheets, having reference to valuations or investigations, be also recorded at certain intervals, in such form and with such explanation as shall be satisfactory to the auditor, and that these be open to the public. "2. That all existing offices be required to place a certain limited sum in the Government funds in the name of the registrar. " 3. That before any new society be registered, such a sum be so invested, "4. That a thoroughly practical and judicious pro fessional actuary, unconnected with any assurance office, be appointed as auditor, iu conjunction with the regis trar, with power to send for persons and documents, and who shall be in close communication with the Board of Trade. " 5. That the Board of Trade, after a report from the registrar and the auditor, and such further procedure as may be thought necessary, be empowered to suspend the operations of any society whose management is disre spectable or tending to solvency. " 6. That the Joint Stock Companies Act is to be re vised with reference to assurance companies, or that a special Act be passed for their guidance. The now Turkish loan being for such a small amount, 800,000/. in a Six per Cent. Stock, and the list already closed, will obviously be taken up by the contractors and their immediate friends, and already bears a high price, being at 3:1 to 41 premium.

Quarter per Cents. have been taken for investment at 104 i to and the Three per Cents, at 1004 to 101. Bank Stock is worth 229 to 230. The large arrivals of bullion, the fine weather, and the satisfactory political intelligence from abroad generally, have all contributed to buoy up prices. Exchequer -bills of Juno have been at 715., and India Bonds at 863. premium. The tone of the Foreign Market is good, although the dealings have been unimportant in the aggregate. Alexi ' can have been in request at 25:k to 26k. Grenada De ferred have risen to 121 -a, and Peruvian Deferred have been buoyant at s 591 to 601.
