Captain PENNY may now enjoy the gratifying sense that he is appreciated. Unlike the majority of the world's more distinguished innovators, he has not been required to wait very long before his predictions have been fulfilled by his statements being verified—and this, moreover, in a manner the most complete and the most triumphant. Cordially do we offer him our felicitations. He has tarried but a very little while indeed, and even now his assertions have been " made good," not through his own instrumentality, but through the impartial agency of those who have followed in his trail, and who have already testified in a remarkable manner to the accuracy of even the most apparently extravagant among his investigators. We wonder what the members of the Arctic Commit tee think now of all the tedious sittings held by them, some months ago, in that snug room of theirs at the Admiralty ! We wonder if they remember with anything like feelings of compunction the "snub binge" attempted to be administered to " Mr." FEINT, as they called him with such studious and systematic discourtesy through the course of these protracted cross-examinations ! How is it now with Captain AUSTIN ? Has he entirely got over that conjectured depreciation of his rank by one who never had the broad arrow branded on his kit-box or his jacket during boyhood embroidered with the technical " curse" of a midshipman ? It will in fallibly be borne in recollection by everyone who has watched with interest the researches made in the northern regions for the discovery of the whereabouts of Sir JOHN FRANKLIN and his gallant associates, that it was the conviction of Captain PENNY that the mi ss ing navigators had gone in a north-westerly direction through the straits leading out of Wellin g .. ' ton Channel, and that he was thence gone off i n t o clear wa t e r, end was beyond their reach, unless some more adventurous effort were made with a view to Yield them—supposing that still possible—timely as,,latence. Not merely will this be cherished in remembrance by the majority of the intelligent, but We doubt not it cannot already be forgotten how that suggestion of the bold and enterprising whaler was received both prior to his leaving the Arctic svas and subse quent l y to h i s return f ro m that only partially successful expedition. Captain FENNY, we repeat, stated the above ideas not simply as his opinion, but Q 2 his i mp li cit belief and " convict i on. " So convinced was he that his suppositions would prove on inquiry to be correct, that h e offered to proceed forthwith in the direction i n ti mated, if supplied with a s ingle steamer, and empo were d to act thereupon in obedience t o the dic tates of his own b e tt er judg ment. Instead of finding his views acceded to, to say the least of them, in genious, instead of be as, being placed in comman d of t h e necessary steam-ve sse l, in stead of obtaining any sympathy whatsoever from one who was too profossionally haughty to acknow ledge himself his colleague in the enterprise— Captain PENNY received . a laconic inquiry in a note f ro m Captain AUSTIN, a s ki ng him if he (lid not think that all that was at all practicable for the nonce had already been accomplished ? It WaS as if you were to sub wit u somewhat elaborate and certaii,ly very startling proposition to a fellow •labourer in a great undertak ing, and thereupon, instead of even paying the com pliment of "entertaining" your proposal for a brief interval, he were to turn round and ask—as though he had been actually deaf to all you had been carefully submitting but just then to Ms consideration—" Don't you think we have done enough without stopping here any longer upon what is manifestly nothing better than a sleeveless errand, if it be not actua ll y a display of Quixotic knight-errantry ?" Captain PENNY was naturally disgusted at such glaringly cavalier treatment. lie an swe re d in a " Pet." He wrote hotly upon the instant, "Of course—let us return home wamoistroir, research would be extravagant." THE SUN claimed with the needy knife-grinder, " Story ! GOD bless you, I have none to tell." He hoped that the Government may in a short time mature measures (to which he is not admitted) which may rectify the class legislation—alluding to the monetary code that placed the cation, bound band and foot, at the mercy of the moneyocracy. We hope so, too. A sound and judicious measure of currency re form would indeed be a boon of no ordinary magni tude, one which would induce the industrious and productive classes to regard with leniency many shortcomings and omissions. Major BERESFORD has, however, given no information that can be relied on on that all-important subject ; nor indeed on any other. He is totally silent as to the nature of the measures by which the DERBY Ministry Those were not his words, to be sure, but they were exceedingly like them, for his answer was merely the bitter and ironical expresNion of his very natural indignation. Well, the expedition came back, and there was an official inquiry, and Captain AUSTIN was very decided, end " Ur." PENNY was snubbed, and the Arctic Committee felt highly satis fied with its labours, and a portly blue-book appeared, containing the whole of the treasures collected to gether by this investigation. What came of it ? Why, from first to last, the insinuation that Captain PENNY'S notion was altogether ridiculous. " Clear water" beyond Wellington Channel was preposte rous, according to the view of Captain AUSTIN ; and the learned and gallant Committee at the Admiralty evidently thought, in their heart of hearts, ditto ! Another expedition was authorized by the Govern ment. It was prepared elaborately, and at last sent out under the command, this time, of Sir EDWARD BELCHER. But, happily be fore then, a non-official expedition bad been dispatched to the northern seas by the dauntless and indefati gable Lady FRANKLIN. That expedition, it has been observed by the public, has now returned to Eng land, and the intelligence brought by the " Prince Albert" must gladden the hearts of all those who can feel one throb of sympathy for the brave unfortunate• Yes ! The reality is shown clearly enough already. The open water beyond Wellington Channel—or as it may be termed Queen's Channel—that open water about which Captain PENNY so long ago avouched his " conviction"—turns out, after being pooh- poohed by Captain AUSTIN and the Admiralty Committee, to be a thing veritably in " existence." Still further has the truth of this been verified. Sir EDWARD BEL.. elm, accompanied by his gallant young colleague Lieutenant SHERAUD OSBORNE, have actually pro ceeded, with the " Assistance" and the "Pioneer" steam tenders, up that clear water into the Queen's Channel. Possibly long before this time they have traversed that Channel frbm one extremity to the other, and penetrated northward, through Penny Strait—a name which will henceforward attest very signifi cantly to after navigator 3 the eminent services of that brave and intelligent captain of the whaler who was despised for a while only, to be the more fully appreciated. How the vindication of Captain PENNY has come to light thus rapidly is not the least curious portion of this surprising narrative. It was effected by a single vessel, and that one of merely 90 tons burthen, with a proportionate complement of men, making but a small number altogether. Such was the little expedition dispatched by his heroic wife to the relief of Sir JOHN FRANKLIN, an expedition sent trustingly to those terrible regions of _ everlasting frost, where the boldest hearts have been filled with awe before the majesty of Nature in all her wildness. Like the bread thrown upon waters, however, the little barque has returned, after many days, scatheless, and: to a certain extent also, be it said most thankfully, successful ! Successful it is impos sible to deny that the expedition has been, so far as it has proved the existence of those clear waters up the Queen's Channel, which were deemed when first spoken of by Captain PENNY nothing less than simply chimerical. Through that channel Sir EDWARD BELCHER has already actually proceeded. There is an opening, therefore, as Cap tain PENNY felt convinced, in that direction; and if Sir EDWARD BELCHER has been enabled to avail himself of it now, why may not the same have occured long since to Sir JOHN FRANKLIN and his missing expedition ? The mere question reawakens and revivifies the hope that the long lost explorers of the Arctic seas may yet be discovered and brought back to old England, to receive the reward of their gallantry and the recompense of their sufferings! Yes ! Sir Joie; FRANKLIN may at length receive, however tardily, assistance from his fellow-country men, and that assistance, it must be added, all will owe in a great measure to the intelligence of Captain PENNY—a navigator the accuracy of whose impression has within such a surprisingly brief interval been to the fullest extent attested. It is related of COLUMBUS, that after his little group of vessels had been traversing the Atlantic for days and nights, during an interval that seemed to his mariners almost interminable—his own almost despairing anxiety was relieved by flights of land birds, by floating masses of seaweed, and ultimately by drifting branches, by branches of ripe berries, and even—like the sign of a human hand beckoning them on in their sublime enterprise—by a piece of wood scored over with grotesque carvings! It is some what thus it seems with the last—almost despairing —expedition sent to the Arctic regions in search of the brave Sir JOUN FRANKLIN. It is rumoured that in their progress through the clear water up the Queen's or Wellington Channel, towards Penny Strait, fragments of "whales, bears, and other animal substances" have floated by the ships of Sir EDWARD BELCHER and his companions—proving beyond the possibility of further dispute that there is nutritious food—food capable of sustaining human life—in that direction, and reminding us betimes in a startling manner that there is likewise that additional proba bility that Sir JOHN FRANKLIN has survived, with the majority of his followers. It is stated even that the portions of flesh thus discovered drifting scuth wards betray evidences of having been partially de voured ! Everything unites, in fact, in urging us onward to increased exertions, in the hope that relief may at last be afforded to those who have been, du ring such a frightfully protracted interval, denied the chance of all human assistance. Captain PENNY asserted long ago that this should be the direction taken by any one really anxious to afford timely aid to Sir JOHN FRANKLIN. For asserting as much, Captain PENNY was laughed at as an " impertinent," or at least as a " visionary." Well—an inconsiderable period has elapsed, and Captain PENNY'S "conviction" is proved to have been ia no, particular an extravagance. On the contrary, the open channel is there, the clear water is there, and even—what Captain PENNY had not ventured to- conjecture—fragments of partially eaten food floating in the clear water, as if to tell those who have , proceeded so far, yet more plainly, that there it is, in that particular direction, that we must hasten on wards with all dispatch, if we wish indeed to conve y assistance to the heroic sailors of England, who n say otherwise be perishing, under the command of the; it dauntless leader, the veteran Sir Jon's FRANKLIN . Again, therefore, and yet again, it should be reps sated, if only in furtherance of the principles of sun pie justice, that, supposing the de sired benefit at last result from these national exer tions, it will be :mainly to Captain PENNY that the Country will be indebted for at length—in the hour when moat of an such an event seemed to be alto gether hopeless— -being enabled to penetrate to the frozen retreat of the FRANKLIN expedition. are prepared to stand or fall. But there is no such reserve as to what they will not do—and we have it now on unquestionable authority, that there will be no attempt to resuscitate " Protection," that the un seemly monster will be suffered to remain in the tomb to which it has been long since consigned, amid the execrations of those who had so long suffered under its baneful influence. Nay, more, we are informed that for a considerable time past there has been no intention of making any such useless efforts. He avers—that " for one whole year before their as sumption of office, they did not as a party, nor did any individual acknowledged as a leader of that party, bring forward one single motion in which Protectionist measures were in the slightest degree involved." It might have been supposed that such a statement would have excited some expression of displeasure, but the soothing influences to which we have ad verted carried it through, as well as the rather con fused rigmarole respecting " the rabble" who were not in possession of the elective franchise, and thereby unable to bestow their most sweet voices on the Right lion. and Gallant Gentleman. In public speeches it sometimes is well to note not only what is said, but what is left unsaid. Major BERESFORD, frank as he is (rather too much so, per haps, for his party's views), has not said one syllable about his friend, agent, and correspondent, JoaN FRAIL, the Salopian barber, who, by the way, was in full feather on the Grand Stand, and in the betting circle at Doncaster, on the St. Leger day. We do sincerely assure the Gallant Secretary at War, that his expla nations about his share of the election doings at Derby would be much more valued by the public (electors and " rabble") than his revealings concern ing the Derbyite policy, about which he seems to be in a blessed state of ignorance. What we want from him, and what we care for having, is not his opinion of what Lord DERBY will do or leave un done, but some idea of his own dealings with FRAIL. We want to know how Major BERESFORD, a cousin of the Marquis of WATERFORD, a Member for North Essex, and Secretary at War, came to pick up not only an acquaintance with Join' FRAIL, the barber, but such an intimate friendship that he corre sponds with him about sending a " good and safe man" to Derby election. " Tell me your com pany," says the old adage, "and I will tell you what you are." Major BERESFORD keeps com pany with a Shrewsbury barber —corresponds with him—employs him as a private electioneering go-be tween ; and, as Major BERESFORD is a member of the Government, the public have a right to know how, and why, and for what reason, he frater nized with FRAIL, who, to ju d g e by his ap pearance and his occupation (with manners to match), is about the last person one of her MA JESTY'S Privy Councillors should be intimate with. Not one word amid the many be uttered at Castle Hedingham about his Frail friend— not a word to explain the employing MORGAN as " a good and safe man" to go to Derby election ; not a syllable as to the cause of his so going. That information is what we want from BERESFORD ; that is what BERESFORD can give, in his individual capacity ; that is what BERESFORD cruelly declines giving us. Well iwe can wait. The question will come before Parliament, by and bye. Major I.lEuEsi ORD has been " starring it" in the provinces. Tho Right Hon. Gentlemen came out in immense force t , efore a select audience, consisting of the members o c the Ilinckworth Agricultural and Conservative Cli ib, assembled in solemn conclave at Castle Hedix ip,ham, and elicited rapturous and enthusiastic applause from his delighted au ditors. Wh ether it was the distinct and positive ass( :;tion that the Ministers had not come into office on the " principles of protection," c r r the satisfactory announcement vouched by his long experience as a whipper-in—that " a decided majcl ity of Members in the Lower House were inimical to the feeling and measure of protec.• tion to egric ulture"—and the shrewd suggestion as to the utter i nutility of " kicking against the pricks," that produce this agreeable result, contempla tion know not. It ni fig ht be that it was the of an, excellent dinner and the abundance of the cre , l , ure comforts so liberally supplied, that produced s good:humour which exhibited itself in vehement cheering" and other marks of approba tion. Whst ever might be the inducing cause, it is certain that th e friend and correspondent of the " Shrew shur y barber" obtained a very cordial recep tion in his is 7o fold capacit.e, both us a member of her illaJEsTy's ( - loverurnent and a private individual — first, when ep 2aking of the Ministerial policy ; a nd, secondly, wk en endeavouring to explain away his rather unfar tunate allusion to the unrep res ented " rabble." On the fi cst branch of the subj ec t t h e wor th y bucolics e unquestionably vary easily contented.

From a statement in the Gazette, the floating deb of the treasury amounted on that day to 358.291,825 seals. On the Ist ult., it was only 344,183,474 reels. During last month, the negotiation of treasury bonds was made at 8 per cent. for private individuals, and at 6 per cent. for bankers. A Council of Ministers had been summoned for the evening of the Bth, at which the QUEEN would pre side, and when the convocation of the Cortes for the 19th November was expected to be decided on. Reports were again in circulation relative to Mi nisterial modifications. It was said that M. BEATRAN DE Lys would leave the Cabinet, - and replace the Marquis DE VALDEGAMAS as Ambassador at Paris; and that M. DE Li TORRE AYLLON would take the Foreign Department. The publication and circulation of the " Histoire de la Vie Politique et Privee de Louis Philippe," by ALEXANDER DUMAS, has been interdicted in Spain. The Madrid Gazette publishes instructions for persons willing to avail themselves of the conversion of the Foreign and Domestic Deferred Debt into 3 per cent. securities. They are, from and after the 15th inst., to send in their propositions under seal. During a period of four months, the Junta will meet on the last day of each month to examine the offers and apportion the amount; and if the total of the offers should exceed the amount to be converted, the distribution will be made proportionately. Foreign holders may present their offers to the Finance Com roissioners in London and Paris, or to the Spanish Consul-General at Amsterdam, between the Bt,h and 20th of each month.

A funeral service was performed on Tuesday in the church of Lacken in honour of the memory of the late Qaeen of the BELGIANS. All the Royal family and the most distinguished persons of Brussels were present. The _emancipation of Brussels of Tuesday says— " Rumours were current yesterday respecting ob stacles slid delays in the constitution of t he Cabinet. Some Pet4ons went so far as to speak of hesitation on the part OF M. P IER COT, which might lead to his re fusal to accept office." "In 1150," GERMAN Y. ex ports of I the GERMAN amounted to 82,7 72,000 thalers in manufactured goods, and 69 , 845,691 say s the Col " the og ne Gazette , thalers in raw material. The imports of manufac tured goods amounted to 48,357,314 thalers, and those of raw material to 107,277,753 thalers. The Jciurnai de Frankfort of the 12th says—" A Vienna letter informs us that the German govern ments hive received an invitation from the Austrian Cabinet to send plenipotentiaries immediately to Vienna, to open a congress for a customs union be tween Austria and the different States of the Ger manic Confederation." A letter from Munich, in the German Journal of Frankfort of the 11th says—" A great many conjec tures have appeared in the journals respecting the motive of the visit of the ElPctor of Hesse to our Court. [he truth is, that the ELECTOR came only for the purpose of expressing i n the assistance given him two y ears eg o by the King of BAVARIA.

D'AaEGai o, Piedmon tese Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary t o th e Court of St. James's, left Turin ou the 7th for his destination. A letter from Florence of the sth, in th e Risorgi mento of Turin, states that so me surprise ha s b een created in diplomatic circles by the circumstance that Count NESSELRODE did not wait upon the GRAND DUKE when he passed through Florence some days ago. In its sitting of the 6th of the Royal Court of Flo rence, the examination of GuEunazzr was concluded. It chiefly related to the events of the 11th and 12th of April, 1849, when the counter-revolution broke out, and the administration of affairs passed into the hands of a Committee of Government. GUERRAZZI gave an account of the bloody collision which broke out at Florence on the llth between the Livornese Volun teers and the people. lle ehosved that the affray did not originate in any political feeling on either side ; that he exposed himself unarmed to the fury of both parties, in order to put a stop to the effusion of blood, and that he succeeded in removing the Volunteers from Florence. On the following day he was taken to the fort of Belvedere under pretence of saving him from the fury of the populace, who were crying " Death to Guerrazzi!" and the Government kept him there until the 24th of May, when he was placed at the disposal of the public prosecutor. He con cluded with accusing the Committee of Government of double-dealing towards him. The reading of the documents for the defence then commenced, and was to be continued in the following sitting. The Grand Duke of TUSCANY visited Leghorn on the 2d, to inspect the works commenced there for the new port. The plan is by M. PoIREL, the French engineer. The cost is estimated at 16,000,000 f. The Corriere Mercantile of the 9th states from Faenzs (Roman States) that there has been a col lision there between the citizens and the police, who had to call the Austrians to their assistance. It is added that several persons were killed and wounded in the fray. An official article in the Giornale di Roma of the sth, states that all negotiations with railway com panies respecting the construction of the Rome, An cona, and Bologna line having failed, in consequence of the excessive. demands on their part, his HOLINESS has directed that the whole line be surveyed at the expense of the Government, in order to ascertain the real cost as precisely as possible.

THE MEETING OF PARLIAMENT.—The general impression in official quarters is that Parliament will meet about the sth o , Sth of November, but that the Queen's Speech will not be delivered until about the 11th of that mouth. It is generally understood, however, that to morrow (Friday) the day of assembling will be positively fixed. The Hereditary Grand Duke of Russia left Darm stadt on the 9th for Stutgardt. On the Sth, Count Mares caldi, the French envoy, had an audience of the Grand Duke to present his credentials, and dined in the ev enin g with his Royal highness. THE EX-PREMIER.—Lord John Russell, accom panied by Lady Frances Russell and family, arrived at Edin burgh on Tuesday afternoon from Callander. The Noble Lord leaves for London on 'Thursday morning. ME FRENCH REPUBLIC We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Government has received the following tele graphic dispatches:— " Rochefort, Oct. 11, Six in the Evening. " Everywhere the populations had quitted their vil lages to he e the Prince on his passage, which was a tri umphal march from Angolexie to Rochefort, where the Prince arrived at halt-past five in the midst of the loudest acclamations, and cries of Vivo I'Empereur " Vivo Napoleon " " Ten at Night. " His Highness made biz entrance into the depart ment of the Charente-lul6rieure in magnificent weather, and was received from the limit of the department to 6aintes with the greatest enthusiasm. His Highness arrived at Saintes at one o'clock, and found collected there the populations of the three arrondissements of Saintes, Jonzac, and St. Jean d'Angely. It is calculated that upwards of 50,000 persons had collected on bis pas sage. Re was received with transports of joy, and, accord ing to the declaration of the Prince himself, his reception there was without contradiction the most brilliant and the most energetieally sympathetic that he has yet met with. Similar transports met him at Rochefort, where the day terminated by a brilliant file. His Highness, whose health continues excellent, appeared delighted with the unanimous acclamations given to him. The only cries heard throughout the whole extent of the de partment were, " Vive l'Empereur!" " Viva lo Sauveur de la France!" " Vive Napoleon M.!" In two words, the Charente-Inferieur, so completely devoted to the Prince, has rendered this part of his tour an absolute ovation. The proceedings of to-morrow promise to take place under similar auspices, and the crowds, which have come in from ten, fifteen, and even twenty leagues, are bivouacking all about, whilst waiting for the moment to be able to renew their acclamations at the review hick is to be passed by the Prince to-morrow at nine o'clock." The Presse, after giving the speech of the PRINCE PRESIDENT at Bordeaux, says— This speech is not important solely on account of its announcing as decided a change on which little doubt could have existed in the mind of any one, but it is'more particularly so from the positive and solemn assurances it gives of the maintenance of peace. These assurances and these declarations, which are so formal and so cate gorical, and which every friend of France and of huma nity must eagerly notice, will certainly appear to the foreign powers of a nature to calm their apprehensions. England will doubtless now regret the hasty creation of her militia, and the Germanic Confederation will re nounce the idea of increasing its military force. Such, we are pleased to think, will be the results of the speech at Bordeaux." The Pays has a highly eulogistic article on this important speech, concluding as follows : " Whatever we may be, Republicans, Legitimists, or Orleaniats, have we not all sought a Government more nobly than our preferences, more national than our con victions, a Government noble as the country, firm as the conscience, resolved to do well, inflexible in truth and in justice, having neither prejudice, nor rancour, nor antipathies, and placing itself energetically at the head of the nation to utilise all its strength and realise all its hopes; of that Government we have now the programme before our eyes. The future will say if we aro to have the reality of this is the Empire ready to be re-established. Tho hour, marked by the will of France, will soon strike. The speech at Bordeaux will still mere strengthen the movement of the public mind which renders the Empire more and more inevitable. By giving confidence to the country and to Europe, it w.. 11 place Louis Napoleon nearer the supreme power which awaits him. Everything is ready, and the future Emperor has only to bond his head to receive the crown of his uncle from the sovereignty of the people which offers it. May the destinies of our dear country be accomplished! God, who protects it, will inspire him, who, after having had sufficient courage to govern, will have, we hope, sufficient virtue to reign." The Municipal Council of Vaugirard, in a recent sitting, adopted an address to the PRINCE PRESIDENT imploring him, in return for the services he h . a . s ren sisthab, tl a tty n , e t w o al of w d fo e u re n d d, t i o n n l o ir m an p c li e n , nc a e nd wit fo h r th t e he na s t a io k n e dynasty, as NAPOLEON M. Emperor. In the department of the Pas de Calais 802 1 communes out of 903 have already signed petitions praying for the re-establishment of the Empire ; in the Dordogne 450 communes have signed similar petitions. Saturday next will be observed as a holiday in the public colleges, but the Bourse will not be closed. In the evening the PRINCE PRESIDENT will receive at the Tuileries, the ministers, the generals, the great public functionaries, Stc. The speech delivered by the PRINCE PRESIDENT at :Bordeaux has been placarded in all the streets of :I.'ari, and was eagerly read by the public. It is also to be stuck up in every one of the 37,300 communes 3'll France.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The aales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 15,000 bales, of which 7,000 American were taken for export and on speculation. The market closed firmly with en upward tendency. The sales comprised 12,000 American, 900 Pernam and Maranham, at 6 1 ,d. to 71d.; 300 Bahia, at 7d.; 800 Egyptian, at 61d. to Bid.; and 600 Surat, 4d. to sd. per lb.—Railway Shares were firmer. The aix-weeks' average price of Wheat is 40s. 9d. per quarter, and the last week's sales officially returned amounted to 115,663 quarters. The public Colonial Wool sales will commence this evening. About 50,000 bales will be offered. At the public sales of Indigo yesterday afternoon 1,867 chests were withdrawn, 2,930 passed, 563 were bought in, asd 500 sold. Prices went more unevenly, and in some cases rather lower for the middle sorts. Kurpah and Madras was 4d. to Bd. above last sale's rates. The telegraph in anticipation of the Overland Mail - - from Calcutta seems to promise good commercial news; but on several recent occasions there has been a little exaggeration in this respect, The assertion that trade at Calcutta on the Bth inst. was brisk is so unequivocal, and corresponds so nearly to what we might anticipate, that we incline to think that on this occasion the mer- oantile news will be satisfactory. The very large amount of bullion that we have for some time past been exporting to the different presidencies, and the con tinuance of the exports, the screw-steamer Calcutta, which leaves to-day, having 100,0001. on board, ought to increase materially the buoyancy of the Eastern mar kets for our manufactures as well as the native pro ducts; but, on the other hand, it is desirable that the latter should not advance too rapidly, and get above the current rates here. Tho exchange at Calcutta was about 2s. 01d. per rupee. Various new railway projects aro still coming for ward, mostly for foreign states. The Royal Swedish line, just announced, takes rather over 400,000/, upon which the State guarantees 5 per cent., and a railroad for Peru, also guaranteed and requiring about a similar capital, is likewise on the tads. The draining of Italian lakes, the formation of now banks, and the coustruotion of small cross-country railways here, bids fair to offer an ample choice to parties requir ing an investment. The Bullion in the Bank of England is expected to show an increase on Friday. The English Funds have been flatter this morning, and with less general business doing. One broker made a good purchase, or we should apparently have had a further reaction. Consols have been 1004 for Transfer, and 1001 1 for Account. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. bring 1031 to and the Three per Cents. 99i to Bank Stock has been rather cheaper, viz., 224, and East India Stock has been marked 274. Exchequer-bills of March are 765., and India Bonds 85s. to 88s. premium, being about the pre vious rates. The Foreign Market has been heavier, with less active dealing. Spanish Three - per Cent. Bonds are 50- to -I, and the Deferred 251 to The Converted Passive bring 61. The quotations, therefore, are generally lower. Mexican Bonds keep up ut 244 to 25. Buenos Ayres Stock is worth 734. The Turkish Loan fluctuates between 7 a and 8 prem. Many think it has seen its highest point, while others are of a different opinion, and ex pect, especially if the Royal Firman be published, an early improvement. The Swedish Loan is dull. There have been numerous transactions i❑ Dutch Bonds. The Two-and-a-Half per Cents, have been at 641 to 65, and the Four per Cents. at 96k to 1. The settlement of the account in the English Rail _ ways has turned more in favor of the speculators for a rise, and a marked improvement has occurred within the 10 st half-hour, so that the actual prices now are above thoso given in the list subjoined. North-Western aro called 119;1 to 120 1 -; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 85 . 1 tc' i; Midland, 77; to 781, and Great Western, 97 to 4.
