MONEY MARKET AND C IYrii ER r. IAL ITMLLI G EN. CITY ) Two The Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday closed with a firm aspect, but without any change in prices from those current on Friday. The sales were 12,000 bales, 2,000 of which were taken for export, and 3,500 on speculation ; comprising 90 Pernam and Marauham, at 71d. ; 100 Bahia, at Std. ; 400 Egyptian, at 6/d. to 71d. ; 1,500 Surat, at 4id. to sd. per lb. The Railway Share Market was firm, with but little business doing. Advices from the silk markets on the continent report no actual change in the prices of the raw material, but from the disinclination on the part of manufacturers to purchase, at their present high rates, beyond what their necessities require, the prices aro almost nominal, and present a down• ward tendency. At Avignon, in France, Ist quality of threads was quoted at 109 to 110 per kilogramme, and unspun silk 86 to 94 fr. At Valencia there was no alteration in prices, but sellers were demanding, with great tenacity, the advanced quotations. The lant market at Aubenas was very quiet, and a few ba).es of Italian silk were disposed of at 100 to 108 fr. per kilo. At Zurich the manufacturers were buying a little more freely, and had watched with anxiety the changes in the market at the close of the last month. Meanwhile the accounts from Italy state that a reaction in the state of the markets had commenced at Turin on the 20th inst. It is the general opinion there that the scarcity of sills will, to a certain extent, prevent any decline prices, but the diminished supply of money, car.sed by the restrictive measures of the banks, woul.d tend to reduce the high prices. Added to this, letters have been received from America announcing the sale of silks in that mar ket much below their value, and the advices from other market's stating that the manufacturers have stopped wor'k, while the orders were daily diminish ing. These circumstances have influenced the merchants, and they have agreed to lower their prices fr om sf. to 10f. per kilo. on the rates of the previo , is month. Lafzer intelligence has been received from Ame rica, per steamer Persia, which has arrived with abut 312,719/. in specie. The Money Market at Nem York was rather easier, the banks having Evade a slight pause in their restrictive policy. No change is reported in the general state of trade, and the imports continued much in excess of the exports. During the week ending the 12th inst. the shipments of merchandise, including specie, were valued at 3,472,8771. On Saturday Mr. Harding, of the firm of Har ding and Pullein, accountants, was appointed npecial manager of the affairs of the Royal British Bank, under the Winding-up Act. There is an active demand for money in all directions, and a general impression prevails that the Bank rate of discount will be raised next Thursday. On the Continent the pressure is very severe, and great inconvenience is felt among the mercantile community, and fear is expressed that money will become still tighter and trade more de pressed, but at the same time there appears to be much unnecessary alarm as to the future course of affairs. p There is a fluctuating market for the English 11 ut r- ls, and symptoms of much feebleness are exhi- bited. After the commencement of business there St. 50 4s. St. was a drop in prices of about i per cent. ; but the market, though still depressed, has since slightly rallied. Among the many causes now operating adversely on the market, the continued decline in the value of the Funds at Paris is exercising a decided influence, and the fall this morning has been chiefly attributed to that circumstance. In addition to this the unsettled aspect of the Money Market is also prejudicial to values. Consols have been dealt in at these prices :—for money 92i 921 f, and 92i ; for account, 93, 924 , 92k. They are •now 921 1, and 921 respectively. Exchequer Bills have descended as low as 9s. to 123. premium, and the Bonds are 99i. East India Stock is 229. The Foreign Market is also very heavy. Turkish per Cents. are marked 99a for money, and the 4 per Cents. 101. Spanish Deferred are 23i, Sardinian 91, and Russian 4i per Cents. 961. Mexi- *an Stock is 21k. The following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks : Grenada Deferred Bonds, 61, to 74 ; Mexican, 21i to 22 ; Peruvian, 77 to 79 ; ditto 3 per Cents., 56 to 58 ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 43 to 45 ; Russian 5 per Cents., 105 to 107 ; ditto 41 per Cents., 93 to 95 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 421 42/ ; ditto Deferred, 23. E 23/ ; ditto Certificates, 5i 6 ; ditto Passive, 61 I. Railway shares are down on the average 4 to 1 per cent., but the settlement of the account has still engaged the attention of the brokers and others. A large amount of business, however, has been done. Paris and Lyons ar e 10s. to 15s. lower, and Northern of France ss. to 10s. The East Indian and Canadian are also heavy. Mines and Banking Shares rule dull, and the Colonial are depressed. Canada Land are 106, being 2/. to 4/. lower. BRITISH F UNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. (From the Official List: Rn.lnftm• 3 per Cent.

NIGHT READING ROOM AT THE BRITISH MUSEUM.— " A. Landing Waiter," in a letter to a contemporary, re vives the old question of opening the Reading-room of the British Museum, and to obviate the'objection to such a proceeding, viz., the danger of fire, suggests that Go vernment should lease or purchase a private house, say in Montague-place or Montague street, to which a back entrance should be obtained from the Museum. The first or second floor could be fitted up for the accommo dation of readers, and thrown open every evening, say from 6to 10. At present, books could be obtained by day in the usual manner ; but ultimately duplicate cata logues might be lodged in the supplemental reading room. The difficulty for those who do not attend in the day might in the meanwhile be diminished if one of the Museum attendants were permitted, for a small fee, to receive from the evening readers orders to seek the books needed. The risk of fire would then be limited to the few volumes sent over to the night reading-room. " SUNDAY TIMES."-NOTICE.--Mr. E. T. Smith begs to announce that, on and after the 3d of October (Friday next), an edition of the Sunday Times, with illustrated supplement, will be published early enough f,r transmission to the country by Friday's post, con taining foreign and domestic intelligence up to the early part of the afternoon of that day. This edition will reach persons living in the remote parts of the country on Saturday morning. It will be, in all re spects, equal to the later editions, and will anticipate the morning papers of Saturday. Another edition will be published, as now, at four o'clock on Saturday morn ing, including all the news of tl e preceding day ; and, a: two o'clock on the afternoon of Saturday, a thir will be published, containing everything of interest that may be received from abroad or transpire at home after the issue of the early morning edition. The fourth edition, containing the whole of the week's news, with all the domestic and foreig n i n telligence of Saturday, will be Publishe d, as usual, at four o'clock on Sunday morning. It is particularly requested that precise orders may be given for the edition which any person may desire to be supplied with, and that any irregularity in its supply may be notified to the publisher.

This was an action to recover damages for breach of contract under the following circumstances : It appeared that on the 17th August last plaintiff took a ticket for an excursion to Margate and back by the Eagle, one of the company's boats. They reached Mar gate at 3 o'clock, and went ashore for a short time and returned, when the vessel, on putting out from the harbour, ran aground, and the passengers had to be put on shore again in small boats, and a notice was put up that the Eagle would leave for London at 10 o'clock at night. Plaintiff, however, refused to wait, and took a ticket by the railway, as he was obliged to be at the Times office at hall-past four in the morning, being the manager of a news-agent at the West-end. He attributed the detention to the Eagle not going in to the jetty instead of the stone pier ; but this, he understood, was according to signal by the harbour- master. His Honour said that in that case the company were not liable, but the harbour-master, if any one. The captain, were required by the act of Parliament to obey the harbour•mr.ster. The plaintiff asked whether he could bring an action against that officer ? There was negligence somewhere. His Honour did not know what course could be taken. There might have been no fault on the part of the har bour-master ; but these little disappointments were to be expected where the" wind and the waves" were con cerned. On one occasion he was 37 or 38 hours coming up, instead of 7or 8, as he expected, but he never' reamt of bringing an action. Plaintiff—Probably not, sir. It is different with me, working hard days and wishing for relaxation one day in the week, and I might have enjoyed it but for the neglect or carelessness of the company or their people. His Honour—Well, show me that. Plaintiff—They ought to have gone to the jetty. His Honour—Have you any witnesses I Plaintiff--No, I have not. His Honour—Then I do not think you have made out a case. You must be nonsuited. Nonsuited accordingly. POLICE , INTELLIGENCE.— (This Day, MARLBOROUGH-STREET. AN IMPUDENT THIEF.— William, Spencer Freeman, a wide•a•wake looking young fellow, with a wooden leg, was charged before Mr. Beaden, with stealing four sove• reigns, belonging to Adolphe Ditto, waiter at the Hotel Provence, Leicester-square. It appeared that the prosecutor, on Saturday night, was much pressed for change, and in the absence of the regular porter of the establishment he gave the prisoner, whom he had known for some time, four sovereigns to get changed for silver. The prisoner, however, absconded, and prosecutor saw no more of him till the previous night, when be gave him in charge. Two former convictions having been proved against, the prisoner, the latter said in both tholie cases it was proved that he was a servant at the time the theft was committed, but in this instance he volunteered his ser vices to the prosecutor. Mr. Beadon remanded the prisoner for a week. A MISCHIEVOUS FREAK.—Richard Southwell and Wm. Ilfilstead, two decent looking lads, were charged with .breaking a square of plate glass, value 101., the pro perty of Mr. James Wilder Adams, proprietor of the Hope dining-rooms, No. 41, Haymarket. Mr. Adams stated that on Sunday afternoon he was in his parlour, where some gentlemen were din in:, when he beard a tremendous crash, followed by a shower of pieces of glass. He immediately went into the front room, and found a large square of plate glass, value 101., completely smashed. He went outside to di,cover the authors of the mischief, when he caught the two prisoners in the act of throwing stones at an old man. He directly collared them, when they ad mitted that one.of the stones which they throw missed its mark, and went through his window. Mr. Adams added that he had seen the parents of the lads, and they bad promised to make some arrangements to pay him for the damage he had sustained. He did not wish to be hard with them, and would get the window replaced as cheap as he could. Mr. Beadon said the boys deserved a pretty good fl egging to deter them from throwing such dangerous missiles in future ; and they ought to be thankful to Mr. Adams for not pressing the case, for if be bad he (Mr. Readon) would most assuredly have severely punished theta. He should now adjourn the case for a month to see how they fulfilled their contract. SOUTH WARK. ASSAULTING A POLICE CONSTAELE.—Henry Bristow, a costermouger, was brought before Mr. Seeker, charged with assaulting Robert Freestone, police-constable 67 M, while in the execution of his duty. The constable, whose face was scratched, stated that he was on duty in James-street, Bermondsey, about 11 o'clock on the previous night, when he saw the prisoner tumble up against a gentleman, and when remonstrated with by him he struck the gentleman. Witness went up to send the prisoner away, as it was not the wish of the party to lock him up ; but he was so violent and abusive that he was compelled to remove him.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY BY A CONFIDENTIAL SERVANT.— Rice, a man » bout 35 years of age, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with robbing his employers Mr. Binns, solicitor, stated the case for the prosecu• . . tion. The prisoner had been for five years in the employ of Messrs. Hazeltine and Matte, omnibus, carriage, and van manufacturers, in Lant•street, Southwark, and it was his business among other duties to supply wheels to the customers of the firm. The greatest confidence was placed in the prisoner, who had the opportunity of rob bing his employers to a large extent if be thought proper, and it was found he had done so, for it had been recently ascertained that he had disposed of wheels to the amount of 251. or 261. without the knowledge or consent of his employers, and had appropriated the money to his own use. A man named Patrick M'Cabe, of Devonport street, Commercial-road East, had been concerned in receiving the property, knowing it to be stolen, and he had absconded. Mr. J. C. Mattß, one of the prosecutors, said it was the duty of the prisoner to change wheels at various places where the firm had contracts. A search warrant was recently obtained, Al'Cabe's premises were searched, and five wheels and fastenings belonging to him and his nartnur were found there. A set of wheels were found on the van of a person named Riley, and another set on Mr. Dawes' cart. They all belonged to the firm, and had not been sold by them. The value of the stolen wheels already discovered was 251. or 261. The prisoner was remanded till Wednesday.

Rae, the secretary to the directors end guardians of the poor, stating, in answer to a com• munication which had bee❑ addressed to the board by the vestry, as to the flogging of certain females in the workhouse, that the board had the subject under its consideration, and that an investigation appointed by the Poor-law Board was about to take place, and that as soon as the proceedings were terminated a report would be furnished by the directors and guardish.s to the vestry. In answer to questions, the Vestry Clerk stated tha t the poor-law inquiry had taken place and terminated, and that certain correspondence was taking place between the directors and guardians and the Poor.law Board, but that the communication he had road was the only one he had received fr,mi the directors and guardiar s upon the subject. Some conversation took place, and Dr. Bachhoffner, one of the board of direct Ts and guar dians, informed the vestry that the proceedings wire at resent io an unfinished state. There was a correspond. ence of no very friendly character going on between the Poor-law Board and the directors and guardian., and when it was completed no doubt the entire proceedings would be laid before the vestry. What bad taken plate, was this. The Poor-law Board had appointed an in spector, Mr. Cane, to make an inquiry into the recent flogging case. That gentleman had made his repert to the Poor-law Board, and upon that report the Poor-law Board had called upon the directors and guardians to dismiss the master, but made no reference to the porters, it having been understood that the two porters, Green and Brow'', bad volunt trily resigned. A rather hasty resolu • tiou was come to by the directors and guardians, at once e;ettieg auy authority which the Poor-law Board preen nh e l they posses , ed at defiance. 041 Friday last the Piair Law Board h.rd sent down to the directors and guardian-, Sr. Marylebone a peremptory order for the iinmedia e dismissal of the master of the workhouse. This, as a matter of course, WAS also set at defiance by the direc tors and guardians, and a communication directed to be sent to the Poor Law Board, informing them that the directors and guardians of the poor of Marylebone declined to carry out any such order. Thus the matter stood, and he supposed that the next communication they had from the Poor Law Board would be in some legal form, which it was the determination of the guardians to meet and contest. In the discussion which followed, Mr. Glidden, Mr. Freeth, and other members of the vestry, expressed their great disap probation of the flogging of women in the workhouse. Mr. D'Eftinger and Mr. Wingfield said that they very much deplored it, though they would support the guar dians in their resistance to the dictation of the Poor-law Board. Mr. Glidden gave notice that next Saturday ho would move a resolution as follows :—" That this board is of opinion that the untoward circumstances connected with the recant flogging of women in the workhouse de• serve the severest censure of' the vestry, as operating to lower the estimation of the parish in public opinion, and " Viifif; occasion to the Poor-law Board to interfere, with a view to deprive St. Mary, lehone of the iodeperideur nosition it has hitherto enjoyed in the nrinageatent of its poor." Butt', MunDER.—A brutal case of murder, aliAing not of a public•house altercation, took place at Bun (loran, in the county of Donegal, on Thursday night. The quarrel did not actually conic to blowF, when one a the patties, a wan named Patrick Cannily, who bad rc cently returned from America,produced a knife or dagger and pluuged it int') the' neck of a young Wan named c m i n liy, killing him almost instantaneously, and kicking hint whiie he fell to the ground. In the confu aim, an d . d ar k t aess t.ip,,liiiirderer made escape, but was•captured, next 'periling by the police, awl com mitted, on the verdict of a coroner's jury, for wilful murder. Tile specifications for the new public offices will be ready for delivery on the Ist of October. For them the Chief Commissioner of Works invites the preparation of designs for the concentration of the principal Govern ment offices on the site lying between Wbitebail and the New Palace of Westminster ; and the other two designs are f, , r buildings which her Majesty's Government have determined to sect forthwith, as parts of such general a &a° . fa• the department of the Secretary of St .te fur Foreign Affairs, and the other for the S croary of State for War. The general or block plans are intended to show the best mode of concentrat- Lng the principal Government offices on the site situated between . D iwlieg-street, Westuaneter. Abbey, and St. James's Park and the Thames. The block designs are also intended to represent any improvements which may ougeest themselves to the competiters in the principal at proaehes to the New Palace at. Westminster, as well as in the communication with the Surrey side of the River Thames, especially with reference to the situation of the New Westminster-bridge, the ultimate position Hof winch must be considered in connexion with the de sayers. The designs for the block plan are to be drawn oa a scale of 44 feet to the inch, and the proposed isise pro, efeents of the public thoroughfares on a scale of five feet to ono statute mile. The proposed new War and Foreign-offices are to be in Downing-street, and on the vacaet space of ground which the government already pessesses in that locality. Architects will, therefore, have to prepare their designs in accordance with this ar rangement. Architects are also permitted to send in models n ith their designs, provided the models are on the same scale as the designs. The offices to be pro vided for are the Treasury, including official residences for the First Lord of the Treasury and for the Chan cellor of the Exchequer ; the Foreign Office, including an official residence; the War Department, the Colo nial Office, the Home Office, the Paymaster-General's Office, the Exchequer Office, the Board of Trade, the Privy Council Office, the Admiralty, the Board of C:ntrol, the Poor Law Board, the State Paper Office, the Office of Works the Office of Wocds, Civil Ser vice Commission, the Charity Commission, the Ecclesi astical Commission, Copyhold, Enclosure, and Titbe Cenareissiore and the Emigration Office. Architects must, in addition to the offices above enumerated, provide for further buildings, to be appropriated as Government may hereafter determine, to such an ex teat as may be cousistent with proper span space and fb rougbfareo The prizes for this class of designs will he fur the beet block i I et, 5001. ; fur the second best, 200/. ; and the third. 1001. ; the deigns of the recipi ents of the premium, to bee, me the property of the Geveoenent. The specific %Lions for the new Foreign , flice sate that the architects are to prepare designs for public offices, and an official residence. The drawings are to show a Wan of each floor, longitudinal and trend s, leo s2ctions, and elevations to a scale of 16 feet to an inch. Architects are also to send in an elevation of one of the principal fronts, drawn to a scale of eight feet to an inch, and tney will t e at liberty to send in enlarged details of portions of the designs to a scale of four feet to an iech. The plans and sections are to have the sizes aid heights of the rooms figured thereon, and are to be tinted in light brown Indian ink. The elevations are to be in line only—ore perspective view, tinted with light grown Indian ink, may accompany the designs ; but bird's-eye perspective view', and drawings in frames (other than straining frames) and g asses will not be received. The Foreign Office, exclusive of the ofil• clad residence, will altogether consist of nearly 200 rooms, some of them of splendid dimensions. For in stance, there aro to be two libraries, each 120 feet long by 30 feet. The building is to be fire proof, the rooms and the corridors wide. The official residence is to contain one state dining room to accommodate 50 per sons, with apartments adjoining for occasional supper aed tea rooms, library, morning room, &c. ; five recep tion rooms en, suite on the first floor, to accommodate 1 500 visitors ; ono or more principal staircases to and tram the reception ratites ; about 12 or 14 bedrooms, with a suitable number of dressing rooms, and alt the other re quirements of a nobleman's town house. The proposed buildings for the War Department will be still larger, s;theugh there is to be no official residence attached to It. The number of rooms altogether will approach very nearly to 270. 'rho dimensions of all of them are to be goel, and especial attention is to be directed t their le mg eneett noted of preper heights, and with reference to god and sufficieet ventilation. The whole of both t he effiefet are to be warmed throughout by an apparatus below, in the Imsemetit (if the buildings:. No restrictions the specific:ethane are made as to cost, so that there is i is , margin opened for architects to indulge their %lite of neeg inaive genius. The prizes for the best fleeigns ate—tor the two best designs for the Foreign (nice and War Department, t mo premiums of 8001 ; for the second best, two premiums ea' 5001.; for the third, two premiums of 300/. ; teed for the fifth, sixth, and seventh best, there are two premiums of 1001. each. If the architect to whom a premium may be awarded in respect of the designs, or any of them, shall be employed t' superintend the execution of :he work, he will not be entitled to rec.ive such premium, but he will be paid a emmitission at the rate of five per cent. on the outlay. Such cemmission to include all expenses for measuring, e upesietendence, &s., except the sale ries of the clerks of flea workr.

The amount of business doing in wheat in most of the country markets held on Saturday was but moderate. In prices, however, no material change took place. Barley was heavy, at drooping currencies. Most other articles ruled about stationary. Wheat is still selling at a comparatively high range in nearly the whole of the continental markets. From America the shipments of produce to this country continue on a liberal scale. Very moderate supplies of English grain were received up to our markets last week. The imports from abroad were 26,899 quarters of wheat, 14,175 barley, 6,301 oats, 730 peas, 1,481 linseed, 35 rapeseed, 70 mustard seed, 2,250 sundry seeds, and 11,748 barrels of flour. The quantity of wheat received fresh up to ow market to-day, both from Essex and Kent, was again very mode rate, and the condition of most of the samples was compa ratively inferior. The attendance of millers was not to say extensive, yet factors were very firm, and the whole of the best-conditioned wheats were taken off at prices fully equal to those realised on Monday last. Middling and in ferior parcels were less active'; nevertheless the quotations were supported, with the exception of a few low Kentish samples, which changed hands on rather lower terms. There was a slight increase in the shosief foreign wheat, yet there was no disposition shown on the part of importers to, give way. The actual sales were not extensive, yet late rates were well supported. Floating cargoes sold at full quotations. The SUpply of English barley was limited—of foreign, good. Fine samples sold steadily at full quotations. Most other kinds realised previous rates. Malt was in better request than on Monday last and prices were well supported. - Very fine oats were in the market. Nearly all kinds sold steadily and late rates were well supported. The few beans on offer changed hands at full quotations. Peas ruled firm. In prices we have no alteration to report. There was a fair business doing in flour at fully late rates.

As the second cut of hay has proved extensive the supply of food for winter use is unusually large. There was an extensive show of foreign beasts and sheep in to-day's market, and their general quality was rather improved. For the time of year we received a full average number of beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts, and their general condition exhibited signs of improvement. As the supply was considerably in excess of the wants of the butchers the beef trade was exceedingly depressed, at a decline in the quotations realised on Monday last of from 2d to 4d per 81bs. The highest figure for Scots was 4s 8d per 81bs. . From Lincolnshire. Leicestershire, and Northampton shire we received 2,6C0 short horns ; from other parts of England 500 of various breeds ; from Ireland 700 oxen ; and from Scotland 40 Scots. Notwithstanding that the show of sbe.'p was by no means extensive the mutton trade ruled heavy, and prices generally were 2d per 81bs lower than on this day se'nnight. The best old Downs sold at 5s per 81bs. Most breeds calm) to hand in but middling condition. From Ireland we received 300 sheep. With calves we were scantily supplied, yet the ♦eal trade ruled heavy at Friday's decline in value of 2d per Blbs. The top figure was 4s 8d per 8 lbs. There was a fair demand for pigs, and prices had an up ward tendency. - Per Blbs to sink the offals. e. d. a. d.

TIIE PANIC IN VIENNA► VIENNA, Sept. 23.—For some time past theist has been a strong tendency to a decline in all kinds of Austrian stock, and certain measures taken by the Credit and National Banks have now led to a• panic which fully equals, if it does not surpass, that which prevailed here in the winter of 1850 and 1851, when. a war between Austria and Prussia appeared inevitable. According to this 17th paragraph of the statutes of the Credit Bank, the whole capital of 60,000,000 ft. 11'33 to be paid in by the end of June, 1857, but the fact had entirely escaped the memory of the great majority of the shareholders, and the few who did remember it wore of opinion that no further call Would be made on them until A balance-sheet had been published, and a dividend paid on the first instalment of 30 per cent. In stead of a balance-sheet containing an account of the way in which the 18,000,000 ff. already received had been employed, the Administrative Council of the Credit Bank published the subjoined laconic notice in the official Weiner Zeitung "Age ei.Ey to the 17th paragraph of the statutes, which relates to the further payment of the 70 per cent. of the capital of the institution, the Administrative Council has det 4-nil:Jed that 20 per cent. shall le paid between the Ist and 30th of November, 1856 ; 10 per cent. I etweea the 21 and 31st of January, 1857 ; 20 per cent. betwe,oi the Ist and 3Oth of April, 1857 ; and the remaining 20 per cent. between the let and 30th of June, 1857: _ _ _ The immediate consequence of the foregoing come ' munication was that those Austrian holders of • Credit Bank stock who had no prospect of being able to paythefurtherinstalments suddenly brought their shares into the market, and thereby caused a very heavy fall. Two days before the decision of the Council of the Credit Bank was made known to the public two or three of its members took undue alvantage of their position, and effected large sales of shares at high prices at various German capitals. At the commencement of this month Credit Bank shares at 2001, on which but 30 per cent. had. been paid, were at 39411., and this morning they were at 3251 As the foreign holders of Credit Bank stock are beginning to share the panic which prevails here, it is very probable that there will be a further fall, although the principal money changers and sellers of Government stock have sold shares to an enormous amount to the great public within the last 48 hours. As if to increase the dilemma in which the finance world is just now placed, the direction of the National Bank has this morning informed the public that, it has raised the rate of interest "on all discount and. loan business" from four to five per cent. It ne€d h be said that the news of the departure of the united squadrons fur the Gulf of Naples has temiea to increase the panic of the stock-jobbing world. Reliable information has been given me that the Credit Bank simply followed the counsel of the Fi nance Minister when it called on the subscribers to pay up the remaining 70 per cent. within so short a period, and his motives for giving such advice arft pretty evident. For want of the necessary funds, the Credit Bank has not yet been able to establish braLch banks in Hungary, and some of the most in fluential nobles are now moving heaven and earth to obtain from the Emperor the permission to estab lish an independent Credit Bank for that Crown. Land. For political reasons the boon will not be granted, but the Austrian Credit Bank will receive orders to establish branch banks without delay. Another reason why the Finance Minister is very desirous that the Credit Bank should be in posses sion of its whole capital is, that the Francis Jo ieph, Theiss, and East Galician Railroad Companies re quire its assistance. It is related that railroad and other inclustriel concessions requiring a capital of 250,000,000 florins are about to be granted by the Austrian Government, and if such should really be the case, a tremendous smash, and that at no distant period, may reasonably be expected. In my opinion Baron Bruck has even now more irons in the fire than is quite prudent.
