The advance in the Bank rate of interest on Thursday to 8 per cent. caused some depression in the London Market for American Securities, which was for a short time somewhat increased by the extraordinary article in the Times, but the fallacies, or rather omissions, in the statement put forward were so glaring that the effect was little more than momentary, and to-clay, on improved quotations for Stock and decline in gold from New York, the market rallied and closes firm. United States 5-20 Bonds, after selling down 64i, have advanced to 64 to 65. Illinois remained steady at 75i to 76, while Eries have improved from 551 to 56 to The various descriptions of Atlantic and Great Western Bonds have been well maintained, and transactions in the smaller denominations of Certificates of Debenture have to-day taken place at 85j.

PRICE 4d., STAMPED rd.; The Weather. Another fall of snow took place in London yes terday morning, between 5 and 7 o'clock. In the absence of wind it was deposited uniformly to the depth of about two inches. Early in the morning frost prevailed, but in the forenoon the temperature rose above the freezing point, and the streets were again filled with sleet, which rendered them almost as impassable as they had been on the previous day. Great efforts were made to reconnect the telegraph wires, but much remains to be done before commu nication can be re-established. The Royal Humane Society have given orders for the immediate erection in the Parks of marquees and tents, with hot water baths, to be used as temporary hospitals in ease per sons should venture upon the ice and become im mersed. The barometer last night stood•at 30 deg., and the thermometer at 35 deg. At the last meet ing of the Clerkenwell Vestry one of the members called attention to the state of the streets of London, more especially the roads, which, he said, no one could cross without going ankle deep in mud. He characterised the condition of the city of London as especially disgraceful to the corporation, and, with a view to setting au example to the city, he moved that the surveyor be instructed to employ men whenever there was a snowstorm to clear crossings to the streets, and to sweep the pavements of chapels, churches, and public institutions. This was carried unanimously, and a resolution empowering the clerk to call the county magistrates' attention to the desirability of having the pavements in front of the Sessions'-house and the prisons cleared after snowstorms. WINDSOR, Friday. To-day efforts were being made upon the portion of the Great Western Railway between Paddington and Slough to restore the telegraphic communica tion which had been destroyed by the violence of the snowstorm of yesterday, Mr. Spagnoletti, the telegraphic superintendent of the line, having a large staff engaged in this operation, and upon a small part of the line near town the necessary block signals can be given. Upon the London and South- Western main line there is telegraphic communica tion •as far as Woking, but between Basingstoke and Exeter the system is reported to be more or less destroyed. On the Richmond and Windsor branch, Mr. Preece, the company's telegraphic officer, had introduced the block system as a pro tection to the traffic, but owing to the storm having partially destroyed communication, the trains were compelled to run without the assistance of electric signalling. As far as Putney the wires and posts had been restored to their former condition, and this afternoon part of the telegraphic staff had reached the Barnes Station, where they were busily engaged in repairing the system. It seems that the telegraph wires upon the loop line from Barnes to Hounslow were also damaged, while the Great Wes tern Junction line between Southall and Brentford also had its telegraph injured. During the morn ing men have been employed in removing the snow, which had collected in great quantities, from the top of the Round Tower and other parts of Windsor Castle. PORTLAND, Friday Afternoon. The gale on the coast has now subsided, and it is expected that at spring tide many of the vessels now on shore will be got off. Already several have been rescued from their perilous positions without having sustained much damage. The Bessie Simmons, of Dartmouth, 30 tons register, sloop-rigged, laden with hoops, from Southampton to Par, a vessel which, among others, we alluded to yesterday as having been driven on the mud, was taken into Weymouth harbour this morning. During the gale on Thursday morning she was riding in the road stead with two anchors down, when she snapped one of the cables. About half an hour afterwards she parted from the other. The captain, Joseph Hicks, immediately set the foresail to drive her clear of the other vessels, and set her on the beach, which she reached about 9 a.m. He and the crew remained on board until 6 p.m., the vessel at this time being firmly beached, with only two feet:of water round her. At 7 o'clock this morning he proceeded to go on board again, when he found that the smack had floated from the beach to the breakwater, and that she was in charge of half a dozen men, who subsequently delivered her to the Receiver of - Wrecks atWeymouth as a derelict. The captain in his de positions stated that he did not leave her with the intention of abandoning her, she being aground within Portland harbour, and in perfect safety, and that he went ashore simply to obtain rest, having been completely exhausted by the weather, intend ing to be aboard as soon as the vessel floated in the I morning. The Minerva, from Poole, laden with pipeclay, which yesterday was on shore in the roads, having slipped from her anchors and being disabled in her gear, during the night drifted from the road stead into Weymouth Bay, where she now remains. She will have to be lightened before she can be got off. The Alexander, laden with stones, went ashore during the gale ou Thursday morning, and fears are entertained as to her being got off, in consequence of the peculiar nature of her cargo. Although the gale was severely felt at Weymouth, no injury to life has resulted. A stack of chimneys near the Cutler Hotel was blown to the ground, and the roof of a house on the Weymouth side fell in and nearly buried an old woman in her bed. Fortunately she did not sustain any serious injury, and was more frightened than hurt. The Great Western train due at Weymouth at ten o'clock on Thursday morning did not arrive till two this morning, in consequence of the line having been blocked up by telegraph posts and wires ; in fact, this was the only train which came in to Weymouth on this line. TORQUAY, Friday Afternoon. Among the vessels wrecked are—the brig Hano ver, laden with oil of vitriol and paint, from Rouen. She was washed against the south end of the Broad sands, and was totally wrecked. The captain was drowned in his cabin, but the rest of the crew, after hard struggles, escaped with their lives by swimming to the shore. The D rian, a French bri g , from Jersey, and bound for Cardiff, in ballast, wa s wrecked outside the Brixha m pier ; but, happily, the crew were saved. The Emilie and Charl es, a French brigantine, laden with coals, was seen sink ing on Thursday evening ; but the crew were res cued. The Lady of the Lake, a Brixham smack, bound to Guernsey w ith 30 head of eattle , was in the roads, and driven against the pier early on Thursday morning. She was to t a lly wrecked. B ot h crew and cattle were after gallant exertions saved. The ves selin the harbour. The Wild R ose, o f went down Whitby, a bark laden with wheat from Odessa, and bound for Dublin, put in here from Falmouth The vessel was entirely wrecked ; but the crew, number ing seven, were saved. The Princess Beatrice, an other bark, laden with wheat from Odessa, and also bound for Dublin, sknk, all the crew, however, es caping. The Courier, a Prussian brigantine, from Rio Janeiro, and waiting in Torbay for orders, was completely lost, and two of her crew were drowned. The James, a fine schooner, laden with more than 100 tons of flour, and bound from Ilavre de Grace for Liverpool, put into the bay on Sunday last wea ther .bound, and was stranded on the Goodrington Sands. The cargo was materially damaged and the vessel knocked to pieces. The Alona, laden with currants, from Madras, was driven ashore and de stroyed ; the crew was saved. The Amanda, a Hull brigantine, laden with a miscellaneous cargo, was seen to sink ; out of a crew of eight only the cap tain and two of his men escaped. The Mary Ann, a London brig, in ballast, and bound from South ampton for Newport, was totally wrecked, and seve ral of the crew were lost. The Jessie, 120 tons, of Exeter, owner 'Capt. Mitchell, in ballast, and bound from Exmouth to Neath, is supposed to have been completely wrecked. It is said that all the crew, consisting of six, were drowned. The Zoe, Plymouth brig, in ballast, and bound for Cardiff ; five, out of a crew of nine, including the pilot, were loat.

Boys thus admitted are received free, boarded, clothed, educated, and taught till they are 11 years o• age. With the view t o secure the election of the most deserving cases, the Committe have from the first discouraged canvas sing, and they do not print any addresses of the subscribers. The voting papers contain a description of each case, as care fully investigated by the Committee, anti with thin informa tion the subscribers are able to judge for themselves as to those most eligible for free admission. This Home was opened in April, 1861. It was designed to take is the little ones whose character and circumstances disqualify the for the Orphan Asylums, and whose tender age precludes their admission to the Refuges. Such are those who, from neglect, are already on the road to ruin. Such are those who have been deserted by their natural protectors and left to beecome idle wanderers. Such are those whose parents may have at one time or other received parish relief, and who are now friendless orphans. Such are those whose parents are breakers of the law, or are in prison, and who train their children in the same path. Such are those whose evil associations have already had their painful effect, and must lead them to a life of crime and misery. There are now 50 little inmates from about four years of age to 10. There is room for nearly 10', and the Committee would joyfully see the Home filled at once ; they only wait for the necessary subscriptions. The Committee feel constrained to plead for those who cannot thus plead for themselves ; and, referring to the cir cumstances of some who have been already admitted, they ask—l sit right to make a widow and her tamily paupers for life because ono of them (the naughty boy of the family) runs wild in the streets and is beyond her control? Is it kind to tell her, because she has so large a family, that you will not help her to put one of them into a Home, but that they must ail go into "the house ?" Is it doing the best we can for the little destitute orphan to send him to the workhouse. Is it doing to others as we would they should do unto us that when these little ones have unnatural parents who turn them into the streets, or force them by ill-treatment to " run away," none of us shou'd be found to care for them, to speak a kindly word to them, to befriend them, to house and clothe th , m ? Shall we leave them still on the doorstep, passing by on the other side, or else exclaiming "Am I my brother's keeper?" The necessity for an restitution for these little ones is evi dent from the police statis.ics, which show that in London alone, in one year, no fewer than 311 boys under 10 years of age, have been apprehended for various offences, 79 of whom were convicted and punished, while the bulk, 232 were dis charged by the magistrates with a rebuke, as being too young to punish, though not too young to learn the beginnings of crime. On the other hand, there are numbers who, but for the timely help afforded by such an Institution, must otherwise become paupers, and losing all ideas of self-reli ance and self -help, be permanent burdens to the State. '1 he Home for Little Boys has, therefore, been established to rescue the little ones, to save them from the prison on the one hand, and the workhouse on the other, and to endeavour to make them useful members of society. . The daily routine of the ins:itution presentg all the fea tures of a home, a seh: - ,cl, and a workshop. The little ones are cared for as children ; they have their regular meals, their suitable clothing, their hours of play and amusement, and their singing class. They are treated as scholars ; every morning* is devoted to school work—reading, and writing, and cipherin,r, and Scriptural instruction, with occasional lessons in ajects and other subjects. But they are also trained to work. As they must all, and that at a very early period in life, earn their living by the sweat of their brow, they are here at once taught habits of industry. So the after noons arc occupied with vat ions industrial occupations— making brown paper bags for bankers, and white raper bags for tradesman, and door mats and servants' kneelers for any who will buy them ; picking the coil for the mats, mending the c other, &a Some a , sist the master in the garden, (jigging, planting, watering, weeding, and so forth. By degrees they are being made useful in the hou , e, scrubbing and sweeping, while the elder ones clean all the boots, knives, Jo. In this way it i 3 sought to fit them for an active working life. c 1 . By payment of ss. a week, made quarterly in advance. All children must be under 10 years of age at the time of admission. Those received on payment are admitted at any time as soon as approved by the Committee, Elections of children to be admitted free will. ake place as Ireqiuntly Ns the increase in the annual subscriptions will admit, till the Home is full; they will then be held periodi ially Forms of application for the admission of children may be had at the Hale s and of the Honorary Secretary, AMERICA. -- - QUEENSTOWX, Friday.

NEW You; Jan. 4 (Evening), It is said that the Congressional Military Commission will introduce a bill increasing the peace establishment of the army to 100,000 men. A semi-official Washington despatch states that Mr. Seward's trip to the South Atlantic has no political object, and ho will be absent three weeks.. The Washington correspondent of the Courier des Etats Unis positively asserts that Mr. Seward will visit Vera Cruz. The Governor of Ohio has ::strongly denounced the Monroe doctrine. The public debt on the Ist of January, 1866, amounted to 2,800 million dollars. The Herald hints that the Mexican question will be settled by a division of Mexico between the United States and Maximilian, the latter ceding to the former the nor thern provinces of Tamaulipas, New Leon, Coahilua, Chihuahua, Sonora, and the peninsula of Lower California. The same paper denies the French and Federal Govern ments have arrived at an understanding concerning the Mexican question. It is known, however, it says, that Maximilian has not met his pecuniary engagements with Napoleon for the keep of the French troops in Mexico, and that Napoleon will not support a military force there at his own expense. The New Hampshire Republican Convention bas passed a resolution declaring that it is the urgent duty of the Government to take decisive steps for bringing about the abandonment of Mexico by Maximilian. The Fenian Congress at New York have notified to O'Mahony and the Senate to report to them. O'Mahony has complied. A company of the 99th New York State Militia guards the entrance to the Congress. The Fenian secretary has issued a manifesto urging concord amongst the Fenian factions. The Herald recommends the Fenians to disband, as it considers their cause hopeless. The importation of cattle into the United States from Canada has been prohibited by the Federal Government. The Herman has arrived out. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. NEW Yon; Jan 4.—Money abundant.

Government Stocks, with the exception of the 7-30 Currency Loan, were all strong and in fair request, with an upward tendency. Railroad Stocks, with some few exceptions, were hardly so strong; Michigan Central on the lower rate of dividend had declined $6, and Illinois Central, and New York Central, show a decline of $2 and $1 respectively ; while Cleveland and Toledo, Cleveland and Pittsburgh, show an advance. Railroad Bonds and State Stocks continue inactive. Money was abundant at 6 per cent., but from the un certainty prevailing as to the action of the Secretary of the Treasury on the currency question money was de posited with the banks in preference to making advances on stock, which accounts for a large increase, nearly six millions in a fortnight, in the bank return.

An extract from the minutes. (Signed) R. S. DIMES, Secretary. Wo find in the United States Railroad and Miniug Register, published in Philadelphia, of the 23rd December, the following letter, which we had not expected would have been made public, but seeing it is so we copy:it, as it may be a matter of interest to .Erie Shareholders 'in this country, to be informed of the propositions submitted by the Atlantic and Great Western to the Erie Directors. We considered then, and aro nowof the same opinion, that the propositions submitted, when our Mr. Satterthwaite was in America, were so reasonable in their character, and practically so advantageous to the interests of Erie Share holders, that wo cannot understand how the Erie direction did not at once accede to them.

Berdell, Esq., President of the Erie Railway Company,— Dear am requested by tile owners of the Atlantic STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, Jan. 12.—For shipping yarns the market, speaking of it generally, has been rather disappointing, yet there have been some fair orders given out, chiefly for 40's, extending into March for completion. The prices obtained have reached the extreme quotations of the week. The market is scarcely so good in tone as it was yesterday, but the difference is barely perceptible, and for all kinds of shipping yarns it closes very strong. Spinners show great confidence in the position of the market, and buyers are more disposed to operate than they were a few days ago. There has been a more cheer ful feeling in the market for home trade yarns than on Tuesday, and a moderate business has been done at Tuesday's rates. In cloth the market had re mained dull since Tuesday, but there has been a more cheerful feeling to-day, with a more general inquiry. Merchants who buy for India and China are obtaining quotations, and seem to have large orders to place. They also appear disposed to operate, but for the uncertainty which hangs over the immediate future of the money market. This acts as a deterrent, and causes some of them to post pone putting out their contracts for the present. Prices are exceedingly firm to-day, and in some cases there seems to be a tendency even to raise quotations. The actual business of the day has been small. The disposition to advance quota tions is due to the advices last to hand from New York,which give higher quotations for cotton (53e.), and the better feeling in the market generally Ls no doubt chiefly owing to these advices. A Cow CHOKED.—A cow, the property of Mr. Edward Couldwell, publican, Deepc,ar, was choked whilst eating from a lot of turnips, on Tuesday. The animal writhed in agony for some time whilst endeavouring to relieve itself of the incumbrance, and then suddenly fell. The cow at once began to swell, and con tinued to expand until it reached an enormous bulk. A butcher's services were called into immediate requisition, and the cow was bled to death.

TliKa*Va, tons, owner Mr. Dixon, of Exeter, CaptaiiOral i man, bound from Exmouth for Port Teta, • ballast, went to pieces immediately after striking, but all the crew (six in number) were saved. The Scythian, an Exeter vessel, Captain Joseph Solo mon, in ballast, and bound from Exmouth for. Port Talbot, was entirely wrecked, but all hands were saved. - The Abeoua, a Brixham vessel, Captain Hellings, was also stranded, but the crew were caved. The Blue Jacket, a Salcombe schooner, was totally wrecked; crew saved. The Elizabeth, a schooner, bound for Crewes, from Nantes, France, was lost, and it is feared the crew are lest. The Honour, 'a Shields brigantine, was wrecked, but the crew were saved. The Thomas and Mai y, laden with potatoes, and bound from Guernsey for Cardiff, was totally wrecked. The crew were saved. The Cheshire Witch, three out of a crew of six drowned ; the ves sel was completely shattered. The Britannia, an unknown vessel, came to pieces, and her master, Captain Clifton, was drowned, the remainder of the crew being dragged to the shore by ropes. The Use ful, a Shields brig, was entirely wrecked; the crew were saved. The following trawlers were wrecked : —The Telegram and the Helen were totally wrecked, but the crews were saved. The Providence is partially wrecked ; the crew were saved by getting • on board another vessel. The Colonel Buller is a total wreck ; the crew, consisting of three, left the trawler in a.boat, which on their making for the shore capsized, and all were drowned. The Salem and the Briton, the Lively, the Ernest, the Belle, a French trawler, and the Forerunner were all wrecked, the crews in all cases being saved.: A steamer un known went down with all hands. It is supposed the following safely anchored on Wednesday :—The Florence Nightingale, of Padstow ; the James O'Llanelly, the Richard, from Havre, bound for Liverpool ; the Providence, of Goole ; the brigantine Jane and Annie, of Powey, Capt. Evans, the vanus, of Bideford ; a London vessel, Capt. Attstin ; and the Southerly, bound from Exmouth for France, also sunk. The shore was literally covered with wrecks, and several bodies were washed ashore. A large fund has been raised for the relief of the suf ferers. The ship insurance companies of Brixham and Teignmouth are heavy losers. GREAT YARMOUTH, Jan. 11. To-day, about noon (reports Mr. M. Butcher) the brig Thoughtful, of Sunderland, bound from that place to London, with coals, dragged her anchor and came on the beach. The wind was blowing a gale from N.E., with a heavy sea. The rocket apparatus was got out, and the surf lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution launched, and the crew of the brig taken out by the lifeboat. The whole of the companies of boatmen joined heartily in working the lifeboat, and without any delay. The ship has hove down on her beam ends, and will doubtless become a wreck. LOWESTOFT, Jan. 12. It blew a furious gale off here. A number of ships bore up for our harbour, and taking it at low water, fell to leeward against the South Pier and did considerable damage to themselves. The schooner Gadabout, of Ramsgate, was in collision in the harbour with the Diana, of Whitstable ; the former was cut down to the water's edge and sunk, I and the latter sustained damage. Most of the ves sels have lost anchors and chains, spars, sails split, &c. Our inner harbour is filled with shipping, and our outer harbour has not presented so disastrous a scene for some time. CROMER, NORFOLK, Jan. 11. A large barque was observed this morning stand ing in (reports Mr. H. Sandford) and apparently touching on a ledge of rocks lying about half a mile from the high water line. The lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution was promptly brought down to the water and launched ; but by that time the vessel had fortunately got out of danger and stood out to sea. Under these circumstances the men pulled off and kept the boat afloat some time. Another vessel hove in sight afterwards with a flag at the peak, or not more than two-thirds up, some said the Union down, but when opposite Cromer, being two miles or two miles and a half from the land, and before the lifeboat could reach her, the flag was hauled down, and the vessel proceeded northward, the wind having shifted to N.N.E. RAMSGATE, Thursday Night. About 11 20 a.m. (says Capt. Shaw) a vessel was reported by several boatmen on the pier to be seen on the north side of the Goodwin Sands. On the haze clearing at this tune she appeared to be a vessel on her beam ends, with her masts gone, the wind blowing a strong breeze from S.S. W. The lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution and the Vulcan steam tug were immediately manned, and proceeded out to render assistance. The coxswain in his report says :—" Having passed through the Cudd Channel and round the North Sand Head, we observed the Champion lugger small boat alongside a schooner on shore on her beam ends, with the crew standing on her broadside ; taking off the shipwrecked men one by one, the tug at this time lying to, with the lifeboat astern. When the crew were all on board the Champion boat she pushed off from the wreck and pulled a little to the southward. The tug and lifeboat then proceeded to the southward also to meet them, and finding that there was too much sea for the lugger's boat to come off, they signalled to us to send the lifeboat to their assistance. About 1 p.m. slipped the lifeboat, when she made sail and crossed the sand, through a very confused and heavy sea, in the Bight of the North Sand Head. At this moment the wind suddenly shifted to N.E., and blew a terrific gale, with hard squalls and thick with rain. During the weather we succeeded in placing the lifeboat alongside th e Champion ' s We then small boat, and took the crew out, six in . number . made sail on the lifeboat, and crossed the N. W. spit of the sand through a very heavy sea, through which the small boat could not possibly have crossed with the number of people on board. The tug then proceeded round the North Sand Head into Trinity Bay, and waited for the lifeboat coming across the sand, took her in tow, and arrived about 4 p.m. At this tim e it was blowing a heavy gale at N.E., with hard squalls and rain. Great skill and gallantry were shown by the Champion's small boat's crew in getting to the wreck and taking the crew out ; but had not the tug and lifeboat been out, the whole of the people would, however, have been swept away and have perished. The vessel proved to be the schooner Zephyr, of Banff, Nixon master, from Newcastle to Lisbon ; cargo, coals. TORQUAY, Jan. 11. Torbay has just been visited by another terrific gale, and in this instance unfortunately attended with loss of life and a vast amount of property, a large windbound fleet having assembled in the bay, in consequence of the late westerly gales. During yesterday the wind was W.N.W. and moderate, but after nightfall it backed to S.S.E., strong, with rain. At midnight it veered to N.E., a heavy gale. The ships thus suddenly exposed to its full force, with a terrible cross sea, began to slip, part, and drive in all directions ; near 30 are said to be on shore at Brixham, from which 70 lives were saved, and some 14 to 16 supposed drowned. Eleven others are on shore at Broadsands and its vicinity, the crews of which are, it is believed, all saved. Amongst them is the barque Stately, of Shields, a total wreck. Some ships are still riding at their anchors, but several of these are dismasted. The Teignmouth lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution Wa a sent for, and brought overland to Torquay. she is now (post time) aiding the ships still riding. The sea is going down, and there are p r ospects of a better night. Such a scene of destruction has probably never before been witnessed on t he shores of Torbay. It is said that the lifeboat might have arrived hours earlier in the bay if she had been sailed down as her coxswain wished ; but the chief officer of the Coastguard at Teignmouth (Mr. Baring) is stated to have refused to allow some of his men to go in the boat , and had insisted on the boat going eight or ten miles by land i to Tor quay. The institution will s end down their i nspector from Northumberland, where he is at present, to squabble. make an inquiry into thi s discreditable THE TRAGEDY AT /1 IDEOPEN.---JOlin Cooke, the husband of the woman who met her death in so melancholy a manner on Christmas-eve, at Wideopen, near Newcastle, has been committed on a charge of manslaughter by the magistrate. .. 1 :,ols• ever re lay, res..
