MONEY JIARKET AND C 0 M MERU fal INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Within the last two or three days there has been a considerable increase in the demand for discount ac commodation, owing to the settlement of the account in foreign bonds and shares of all kinds. Moreover, money has been sent to the country for the protection of banks, so thit they may be prepared for any contingency that may arise from Fenianism, but every confidence being reposed In the Government no material change in the Money Market is likely to take place from these influences. Though the rates out of doors are now ahnost equal to the minimum of the Bank, the de mand after all is comparatively insignificant com pared with the available resources of bankers and bill-brokers. The Cuba has brought about ..V2,000 in specie from New York. There were no gold operations yesterday at the Bank of England. Notice has been given by the liquidators of the Imperial Mercantile Credit Association that a second dividend of 2s. Gd. in the pound will be paid on 'Wednesday next the 20th instant, or any subse quent Wednesday. The share list of the English and French Steam _ Tr ansit Comp any w ill b e c l ose d on th e 20th i ns t. for London, and on the 22d for country applica tions. It has been notified by Messrs. Freehling and Goschen that the Coupons of the Egyptian Go vernment Loan, 1862, due the Ist March, will be Paid at their office on any Monday, Tuesday, Thurs daY, or Friday, on and after that date. The movements of the precious metals during the Past week have been on a very restricted scale. The imports Have diminished to about £140,466, includ ing £l,OOO from New York by the Asia, £8,700 by the City of Boston, £64,898 by the Germania, and £2,000 by the Cuba. The Nyanza, from Alexandria, has brought £45,240; £12,028 in gold has been received from Portugal, and £6,800 in silver from the Continent. The exports have been £73 1600 in gold to the Brazils, and there have been r emittances to the Continent through private sources estimated at £102,132 —the totar amount ing to £175,732. Two O'CLOCK. According to Reuter's telegram from Paris to day, the French Rentes were 69f. 42c. Few securi ties quoted. Bourse agitated. On the whole the markets for stocks and shares have not closed unfavourably. There are instances o f buoyancy—instances, also, of depression ; but iu the main the tendency is encouraging, especially on account of the energetic and successful policy Pursued by the Government in dealing with the Fe nialan and other disaffected persons. Consols closed a t 9 04 91 for mo n ey, a n d at 91 for the account.

A writer in the Times says :—The following details may possibly interest the British publi c Baron Marochetti, it is well known, has supplied the metal and made the castings, for which he is to receive £ll,OOO. The weight of each lion is 7 tons. Sir Edwin Landseer is to receive £6,000. It is stated that a firm offered to perform Baron Marochetti's part of the work for £6,000. Whether this be so or not, I can assure you that a partner o one of the most extensive and most important engi-r neering establishments in this country, where com plicated castings of very large dimensions are con stantly made, not only of cast iron, but of the alloy of which the lions are composed, informed me that payment at the rate of Is. 2d. per lb. would be re munerative, and that he would undertake to pro duce such castings at that rate. Thus you will perceive, that £3,650 (in round numbers) would have sufficed to procure for the nation what has cost £ll,OOO. Railway and other Companies. MIDLAND. The half-yearly general meeting of this com pany was held yesterday at Derby ; Mr. W. E. Hutchinson in the chair. The report (an abstract of which has appeared in The Sun) was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said that the increase in the traffic amounted to the large sum of £72,000 in the half-year (this had shown itself in all the items of traffic carried on the railway). The increase would have been greater but for the disasters which occurred in the autumn of last year, these arising in consequence of the floods and the bad weather wkich prevailed for an unusually lengthened period. A viaduct on the Leeds and Bradford line had been destroyed, that caused an interruption of the traffic ; they had also had to deal with the embankment on the Rowsley and Buxton extension line. Their traffic had also suffered from the strikes which had taken place at the ironworks and collieries in their districts, the results of these had been that instead of their ac counts showing a steady increase of £3,000 a week, there had been a diminution amounting in the aggregate to £lO,OOO in the lalt six weeks of the half-year. Their expenses had been very heavy, the proportion to the receipts being greater than usual. The cost of some of the renewals had been borne by revenue. Among the items under that head was one in way and works department amounting to £7,000 during the half-year. The locomotive expenses had been increased by running additional trains over the lines of neighbouring companies, they had had to use the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway and others, and would of course have to pay for that accommo dation. The increase of train mileage run last half year was £500,000 miles. In reference to the loans recently raised or renewed they had not been able to borrow on such favourable terms as heretofore, but he believed that in this particular they had done as well as their neighbours ; and but for the dis asters to which he bad referred he had no doubt that they would have earned 61 per cent. The expendi ture in the half-year on capital account amounted to little short of £1,750,000 on works at present un productive; and taking into account the amount thus expended, as reported up to the end of June, 1866, the aggregate was moth than £3,500,000 ; that sum had been raised by way of debentures, open stocks, and in other ways. In the half-year the interest on that amounted to £89,000 unproduc tive, which amounted to 11 per cent. on their capi tal, or 15s. per share on the half-year. lle believed that when the new lines were opened for traffic that there would be a considerable rebound in dividend, especially as soon as the London and Manchester lines were open. Of this he took a most hopeful view. 11e commended to the especial favour of the shareholders the proposed amalgamation with the Glasgow and South-Western line, which project would be attended with the greatest advantage to this company. Mr. PRICE, the d eputy-chairman, seconded the motion for the adoption of the report. After a long discussion, in the course of which amendments were proposed, the report was adopted on a show of hands bya large majority. Dr. O'Brien demanded a poll, but it was believed that the result of the vote on the show of hands will be unchanged. The Queen is understood to bo preparing a work for the press, illustrated by plates of her own execution. MR. DICKENS was a spectator of Monday's Re form demonstration from the balcony of the Atheneum Ulub, in company with the Archbishop of York, who about a year and a half ago, denounced the reading of novels as pernicious. A marriage is arranged to take place between Lady Marion Loftus, daughter of the Marchioness of Ely, and Mr. Springfield, of the sth Dragoon Guards. Sir Robert and Lady Vivian have left Edwards's Royal Cambridge Hotel for Brighton. Sir John and Lady Sebright have taken a house in Grafton-street, where they have arrived from Beech wood, Herts, for the season. PURE DENTISTRY, AND WHAT IT DOES FOR US —is the title of a very interesting little book, which has just been published by Mr. A. Eskell, of Grosvenor-street, the well-known consulting practi tioner in dentistry, and author of several important works on dental surgery. It is not a collection of fulsome puffs, tacked together and pub lished as a professional advertisement, but a useful volume, overflowing with valuable advice as to the preservation of the teeth. The great object of the work is to show how much the state of the mouth and teeth affects the general health, and as the lan guage used is devoid of technicalities every person once taking up the book cannot replace it on the table without obtaining much useful information. There are chapters on the month and teeth, pre servation, and extraction, imperfect remedies, tartar and its extirpation, the scaling operation, the conditions requisite to the safe and effectual per formance of the operation, and various other mat ters all tending to the preservation of the teeth. The best test of the utility of the book is the fact that the first edition was exhausted before any thing like the demand could be met. The author in the new edition has made certain additions to that originally published, and those who desire in formation on the subject of teeth cannot fail to find it in Ur. Eskell's little book. rEEFEREIVIE 511AltES. Great 'Western, 4 per cent irred. 70 LINES LEASED AT FIXED RENTALS. London and Blackwall, 8Z FOREIGN MINER.

FALSE WEIGHTS, &C.—Sixty-one tradespeople in the South of London were on Wednesday fined at the Newington petty session for the possession and use of Lis* weights and measures. The fines varied in amount from ss. to £5, some of the heavier penalties being inflicted for second and third offences,instances of this kind numbering 12 in all. One case respecting which there was some doubt was adjourned. In one case, the defence was set up that short weights were used for pressing skins and leverage, but neither to buy in nor to sell, and the exemption of French weights was sought. Among other extreme cases may be mentioned, ono in which a nail was attached to a coal scale-plato, on which was hung a 141 b. weight ; and the scales wore lib. against the oustomer.—k7outh London Chronicle, Bristol an u Eketer Caledonian 'ambrian rk and 8and0n...... ornwall Dublin & Belfast Juno Dun„Perth, & Ab.Juna (:.London, Ocrip Certi.

Beadle was in immense request, but scarcely more so than. Mr. Allan, which had the effect of weakening Bismarck's position, and Leases gradually advanced and eventually touched 10 to 1, vrhilo Lady Pam was often inquired after, and supported her quoted price. Mount Palatine and Problem were made the medium of such hostility that both gradually retired, while the formers stable companion Vandervelde was eagerly sought after, and as little as 100 to 6 at one time, though 25 to 1 was sub sequently to bo obtained. Problem would appear to be hopelessly gone, for no backer could be found to take 66 to 1.

The University Boat Race. progress a t t b r o s v ti e ll ws Both crews are p rac ti s i ng daily, and exhibiting marked improvement, m p ot e o nt , :ss b d but the h t e he a dev proficiency a a n u t a t. t b g a s os are not making so rapi d o t f h e h a O v x i n o g n i f a o n u s r . m T en he i n O Can the this year who rowed so gallantly in the University race at Putney last season, viz., Mr. W. R. Griffiths, of Trinity, the old stroke oar ; Mr. H. Fortescue, of Magda lene, No. 4. ; Mr. Still, of Oaius, bow: and Mr. J. U. Bourke, of Trinity, No. 3. The Oxonians are labouring under considerable disadvantage in this respect, as there aro two of the gentlemen of the last triumphant crew to take their places in the boat at the forthcoming contest —Mr. F. Wiliam, of Exeter College, the president, who rowed No. 4, and M. W. Wood, of University, No. 6. The crew has co deplolro the loss of Mr. M. Brown, of Trinity, who rowed the stroke oar so effectively last year, and during the whole of the "coach ing" this terra it is much to bo regretted that the president has not been assisted by any old university oarsman, ex cepting au occasional look in from Mr. G. Morrison, but hai had the onerous task thrown upon him of doing the whole of the work, including the great responsibility of choosing a new stroke, besides which he and Mr. W oo d are prevented from entering the boat for practice., as there has, bean no ono else to look after the crew. However equal these gentlemen may have shown themselves to the emergency, it is to be hoped that they will be relieved from a position so detrimental to the success of the crew. 20 et et 100
