The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday was firmer, and there was a good demand for Brazilian qualities. The sales were 12,000 bales, nearly half of which were tiken on si.eculation, and the rest for export. The Railway Share Market presented a stronger aspect, at firmer values. The Bank of England weekly return made up to the 13th inst., is generally viewed with satisfaction by all persons interested in an improved money Market. The changes presented show that the measure of Thursday last was forced upon the directors, for if they had continued to exact 6. per cent, as the minimum, they would have no doubt found that their discount business was gradually diminishing. The reserve of notes is now nearly Six millions sterling, and fl,)r the first time for some weeks there is a favourable movement in the other securities. The bullion has increased arid is now nearly eleven millions sterling. In the other de partments an amendment is also apparent, and Judging from present appearances it is not im probable that a further reduction in the rate of discount will soon take place. The principal items and the changes they present are as subjoined. Active Circulation Decrease Bullion Increase Rest Increase Public Deposits Increase Other Deposits Decrease Seven-Day and other Bills 685,761 Increase Government Securities Other Securities Decrease Notes unemployed Increase 646,590 The official return of the export of bullion from the port of London for the week ending Thursday last is as follows : _ _ —• ‘.„ Gold Coin ... Hamburg ••• 2,060 Ozs. Belgium ••• 300 „ ••• ... Rotterdam ..• 80 „ Bars ... Boulogne ... 40,000 „ Silver Coin ... Hamburg ... 400 „ ... Rotterdam ... 1,000 „ There is a good inquiry for discount accommoda tion in Lombard-street, but no pressure exists, and the market, since the alteration of the Bank rate, has been decidedly easier. The English Stock Market has been firmer to day owing to the favourable Bank return, and the expectation of an improvement in fini,nci til affairs both here and at France. The transactions have not been large, but purchases have preponde rated. Cons'As have been 931 g for the account, and 931 for the opening. The New Threes are 924. 93, and the Reduced 924 93. Bank Stock is 213. Exchequer Bills are 3s. discount to ls. pre ruium. Foreign Securities have been very dull, but at previous rates. Turkish 6 per Cents. were dealt in at 96g, and the latest price is 964 g. Dutch 4 per Cents. are 9'71, Russian 41 ptr Cents. 99, and Buenos Ayres 87. Equador New Consolidated have been dealt in at 14, Grenada New Active at 224, and Peruvian 4i per Cents. 77. The following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds.

Manchester, Shef field, and Lincoln advanced Sc.,and South- Western and North-Eastern (erwick), 10s. ; Great Western declined ss. ; Caledonian, 105. ; and Bristol and Exeter, 15s. The French ines 'Were not dealt in, and prices were nominally Unaltered. Grand Trunk of Canada receded abo u t 21., and Great Western of Canada re mained steady. Mining Shares have slightly improved. Great Wheal Vor has advanced to 41, and Cobre Copper to 52. Wheal Trelawney brought 234.

THE EDUCATIONAL CONFERENCE. —His Royal High ness Prince Albert will take the chair on Monday next, at three o'clock in the afternoon, at Willis's Rooms to inaugurate the educational conference. THE IRISH PERRAGE.—Viscount Monntmorrea will stand for the next vacancy which may occur in the re presentative peerage, atter the election of the Earl o Bandon. ERECTION OF A MONASTERY.—TIN Benedictine Order are about to erect a monastery at Belmont, near Here ford, on a scale unknown in England since the Refor nation. Mr. Welby Pugin has advertised tenders f the work. A handsome catholic church has also recently been built at Belmont, at the sole expense of F. R. Wegg Prosser, E,q., formerly member for Hereford shire, and who a few years since seceded from the Church of England.— Cheltenham Examiner. FATAL ACCIDENT. —Yesterday evening an inquest was held at Sr. George's Hospital, Hyde-park-corner, before Mr. Bedford, coroner for Westminster, on the body of Mr. Giles Pocock, aged 38, late steward to the Junior United Service Club, who was killed by being thrown from his horse in Mount-street, Gros venor-square, on Tuesday morning last. The jury re turned a verdict of "Accidental Death." The deceao.ed, who was much respected, has left a widow a►,d family. The District Surveyorship for the Western division of the City is now vacant, and the Metropolitan Board of • Works will shortly be called upon to elect a surveyor to fill the office. In these times, when old houses are falling about us, perhaps for the want of proper supervision, it behoves the Board of Works to select well-established men of tried ability and known competency. In making a judicious choice, we are assured there exists but, little difficulty, as we find among the candidates the name of Mr. Richard Tress (of the firm of Tress and Chambers), an architect of no small reputation, uudtr whose direc tion the City of London Union Workhouse at Bow, the Central London great range of schools, and many other well-known edifices, have been erected. He is surveyor o the Cutlers' Company, and is well-known in the City as a skilful and an attentive man to his trust, a satisfac tory guarantee that in his keeping the appointment would be safe. Whether the Board elect Mr. Tress or any other person, we hope to see the office filled by one capable of preserving our lives from the danger of worn out buildings falling upon us as we progress through the streets. The late catastrophe in Tottenham-court - roa d is a proof of the necessity. HAMPSTEAD HEATII.—At the weekly meeting of the St. Pancras Vestry, a communication was read from Sir B. Hall announcing that a bill bad been brought into Parliament having for its object such an alteration of the Leases and Sales of Settled Estates Bill as would enable Sir T. M. Wilson to carry out his views with regard to building at Hampstead•heath, and exorecsive of a fear that, unless some steps were taken to effect its purchase, the object of the alteration might be effected. After some discussion, condemnatory of the conduct of the Metropolitan Board of Works, Mr. Farrer moved that a petition be presented to both Houses of Parlia ment, praying them not to pass a bill removing the re striction on Sir T. M. Wilson, as contemplated by the alteration of the Leases and Sales of Settled Estates Bill, and also praying the legislature to take such mea sures as may tend to preserve the heath of Hampstead fur the health and pleasure of the artisans and inhabit ants of the metropolis, and the general public. The Rev. R. Eckett seconded the motion, and it was carried tuaaniraously, MAE& 2; 1 1 1- 6 4 —C.Chis Day.) RAILWAYS. RAILWAYS. Closing ?rico? this day Business done this day. Shr. I n 10Ambg. Nottng.

This was a writ of errer from the Courtiof Exche quer, in which counsel were fully heard 7th of February last, and the case stood over for consideration. Lord Chief Justice Cockburn now delivered judgment. The point of contention was whether the water taken to supply and fill up the lock in which one of the cons pany's barges was sunk, and raised by the water taken to fill up the lock, was chargeable at the rate of 101. per lock, a water supplied for navigation purposes, under articles of indenture entered into between the pat ties. The Lord Chief Justice was of opinion that the water supplied to fill up the lock, which was emptied to raise the sunken barge-4as water supplied for navigation purposes, and as such was fairly chargeable at 101. in term of the articles of indenture. That the decision of the Court of Exchequer upon this third point should be reversed, and upon the second points affirmed. The other judges concurred. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (B,tore Mr. Commissioner Fane.) EX PARTE.-IMPORTANT APPLICATION TO DISCHARGE FROM CUSTODY. Mr. Salamans, of thefirniOf --- .A.hbott and Salamans, applied to his Honour for the discharge of a bankrupt out of custody. It appeared from the statement of Mr. Salamans that his Honour had suspended the bankrupt's certificate, and no protection to be granted for three months. After this decision one of the creditors ob tained a certificate from the Court, which operated in the nature of a ca. sa. in the law courts, and the bank rupt was taken to the Queen's Bench Prison. His health, however, was so materially affected that a medi cal gentleman granted a certificate to that effect. Mr. Salamans submitted that under the 256th section of the act the Court bad power to discharge. His Honour did not consider that he had any power' He was bound to do that which the act prescribed, viz., on the suspension of the certificate to grant a certificate on which the creditors might act. Mr. Salamans said there was no doubt that the legisla ture contemplated this as a punishment in the discretion of the Court, which might, under the circumstances, remit any portion of the periott. His Honour said he reluctantly came to the conclusion that he had no power in such a case. The Court had unquestionably a power to discharge on the application of the detaining creditor, but not otherwise. Mr. SalAmaus said that he would serve a notice on the creditor to show cause, and renew his application on a future day. His Honour said that he would gladly accede to the request of the creditor, but, as far as the law went, he did not consider be could interfere, although the bank rupt might die in prison. The application was therefore adjourned. AQUATICS. ROYAL THAMES YACHT CLUB. The schooner race which took place yesterday was ren dered this year more important than usual, by prizes being given to two classes intead of one-100/ in value for the first, and 801. for the second. The prize for the first elms was a very beautiful ewer by Garratt, and for the second a soup tureen by Smith ; and the distance to be sailed was from Gravesend tothe Mouse Light and back to Greenhithe, a distance of newly 60 miles, with a quarter of a minute time allowed by .he larger to the smaller ves sels, up to 150 tons, but no title scal above. The Prince of Wales steamer had been procured by Mr. Hutchins, the treasurer, and left London-bridge at ten Precisely, with a numerous and fashionable party on board. The Prince of Wales arrived at, Gravesend at 12, where the following were found at their stations : FIRST CLASS, EXCEEDING 75 TONS. YACHTS. TONS. OWNERS. Zousve ......... 9.) ......Messrs. It. A rabin. May Fly lll ...... G. P. Bidder. SECOND CLASS. Aquiline ' Wild Fire Vestal There was a very large stake of money depending upon the result. By Hunt's " Universal Yacht List" we find that the Zouave was bait by Katsey, and belongs to Grimsby ' • the May Fly, ly White ; the Aquiline, by Harvey ; the Wildfire, by Hanson ; the Vestal, by Inman. It was the first time the :ouave had ever shown in the London river. She was spoien very highly of, as having both space and seaworthy properties, and when it was found that she had no other opponent than the May Fly, the betting would probably lave gone to any extent upon her could takers have been found. The Aquiline, a very pretty craft, was not at all it request, it being considered that the race must unquestionably lay betweeen the Wild fire and the Vestal, arra so itturned out. There was wind enough for anything, and fe much for those afloat that they had to reef in their mainsail. The wind was mainly from the east, although it iaried slightly throughout the day, and this gave the yach,s a dead foul wind down, and a flowing sheet up. Lord Alfred Paget was the commander for the day, assisted by Mr. R. Greene, the worthy vice-commodore, and at p.m. 30 min. 47 sec the signal to start was given. It was a very beautiful rate throughout, and it finished thus : Vestal Wildfire Zouave Aquiline The Vestal allowings quarter of a minute per ton, and the difference being tons, gave her the victory by the time we have describel, and beating the Zouave, she took the first prize. She win, according to club time, by a few seconds more. MARKET NEWS.--(This Day.) COVENT GARDEN.

AN EXPENSIVE JOKE.—A::gustus Lascelleß, an ill looking Frenchman, was brought before Mr. Bingham, charged with attempting to garotte Pierre Sartori, the mawtger of the Turkish Divan, 68. Haymarket. It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor, which was interpreted to the Court by Mr. Albert, that about . two o'clock this morning be was proceeding down the Haymarket, dressed in the Turkish costume, when the prisoner came stealthily behind him, and seized him with both bands by the throat, with the intention no doubt of garotting and then robbing him. Prosecutcr after a sharp struggle managed to get out of the prisoner's grasp, and as soon as he could cry out, he called police, and a constable came up and rescued him from the prb,oner who was taken to the station. Police-constable 117 C, said on hearing the cry of " Police," he ran to the spot and saw the prisoner in the act of grasping the prosecutor by the threat, and three more apparently companions of the prisoner were standing close by looking on. Witness at once ran up and collared the prisoner, but the other three men ran off. Mr. Albert proved that the prisoner was a notorious bad character. havink been sentenced to the ga ley3 for five years. Ile, however, contrived to effect his escape from France before the sentence was carried out. The prisoner bad also been convicted in this country. The prisoner, in defence, said it was all a joke, and pinching the prosecutor he merely intended to frighten him. Mr. Bingham was ir.clined to think that a robbery was not intended. A serious assault had, however, been committed, for which he must be fined 51, or two months. SOUTHWARK. CUTTING AND WOUNDING.—MURDEROUS AS3AULT ON A WlFE.—Thomas Iris, a middle-aged, respectable-look. mg man, waiter at a large tavern in the vicinity of this Court, was brought before Mr. Combe, charged with committing a murderous assault upon Margaret Iris, his wife, and stabbing her in the right side of her face with a knife. The complainant, whose face was much disfigured, stated that she had been married to the defendant 20 years, and had 13 children by him. For some time past he had neglected her and the children for another woman, which continually caused words between them. On the previous night she met him at the tavern, when they both went home together, apparently very comfort able, but as soon as they entered the house he abused her, and struck her with his fists. He then threw a chair at her, and broke every thing he could lay his hands on ; and as she was about to quit the house by the street door he stabbed her near the right eye with a knife he had in his hand, and then she called out " Po lice !" and " Murder !" A co❑stable came up at the the time and took him into custody. When he threw the chair at her he had a knife in his hand, and she then struck him. After that he stabbed her, but she did not think he meant to do her any harm. The prisoner said it was all through his wife's tongue, which was always abusing him whenever they met each other. She was jealous of him, and he could assure his worship she had no occasion to be so, as he had nothing to do with other women. Mr. Combe asked him what he had to say for stabbing his wife He replied that it was done by accident, when she was assaulting him. He declared that he bad no intention to hurt her. The wife here i❑formed his worship that he continually ill-used her, but at the same time she did not want to hurt him provided he would be kind to her for the future. Mr. Combo told her he could not allow such a mur derous assault to pass over. He should sentence the prisoner to six months' hard labour, and at the expira tion ot that time he must find bail for six months longer. Prisoner (laughing)—That's just what I want, That will serve her out. THAMES. CONVICTION FOR SMUGGLING TOBACCO --Henry Amatty, William Wicks, and Ge rge Walker, lighter men, were brought before Mr. Yardley charged on a Custom-house information with smuggling 83 lbs. of foreign manufactured tobacco, by which they bad in curred a penalty of 1001. each. A clerk from the Customs Solicitor's-office attended on the part of the Crown. It appeared that a Thames police constable named Major, No. 36, was looking after the prisoners, whom he had for some time suspected to be smugglers, and saw Walker leave a boat at Irongate Stairs near the Tower, look about him, and then go back and speak to Wicks, who was in the boat, and say, "let us have it, it's all right." Wicks raised a bag containing something very heavy. Walker was proceeding towards Tower hill with his load when he was interrupted by Major, who asked him what he was carrying, to which he replied that he did not know. Major seized the bag, and opened it, and found it to contain tobacco. The officer believed the weed had just been imported in a foreign steamer. Mr. Claridge, appraiser of condeinned goods, in the Queen's warehouse, said the tobacco was of foreign manufacture, and liable to a duty of Os. 5d per lb. The prisoners made no defence, and Mr. Yardley sen tenced them to p‘y a fine of 1001. each, and in default of payment to be imprisoned for six months. They were committed accordingly. CONVICTION OF LASCARS AND CHINAMEN FOR LATION of THE COMMON LODGING-HOUSE ACT—Tikh Abdalla, a Lascar, was charged by Inspector Price w ith violating the act Of parliament regulating common lodg ing houses. Police Sergeant Maddigan, No. 51 A., said he visited the defendant's house in Bluegate-fields, Shad well. It was not registered. The defendant and his wife, an Englishwoman, and their child were in one bed, and two Lascars were sleeping under it. There was another Laccar asleep in a cupboard under the stairs and two women of the town slept in two separate rooms. The defendant said he did not keep a lodging-house, and called Elizabeth Wilson, who said she occupied a room in Abdalla's house, and occasionally took home men. Mr. Prid, one of the inspactors of common lodging houses, said the prisoner had been convicted four times and fined 10e., 40A., 3/ , and 5%., and repeatedly warned. Mr. Yardley said the prisoner was a most incorigible offender, and he would not allow any one to keep one part of his dwelling as a lodging-house and the other part as a brothel. He fined the prisoner 51., and in default of payment one month's imprisonment. Arze, a Chinaman of Bluegate-ffelds, was charged with a similar offence. Sergeant Kirby, No. 53 A, found three Chinamen in the same room as the defendant. The house was in a most filthy state, and not registered. Mr. Yardley fined the dependant 51. MINING INTELLIGENCE. (Prom the Mining Journal of this day.) Another serious fall in the standard for copper ores has been the chief topic of conversation in mining circies during the week, and various plans have been propound ed to remedy the present unsatisfactory state of the copper market. Now, it appears to us there are two ways of bringing the smelters to book, and one or the other should be adopted at once. The first is, let share holders conset to forego dividends for six months, that the produce of the mines brought to market may not be mere than enough to meet current expenses ; if the Devon Great Consols, North and West Bas set, Great South Tolgus, and a few under the same management, were to set the example, it would be quickly followed by others, and from 5000 to 6000 tons of ore per month would be withdrawn from the market, and the furnaces of the smelters be left comparatively Idle. The other plan, and the one most likely to succeed, would be a miners' smelting company, formed by a Com bination of mining shareholders, capitalists, managers o mines, and consumers of copper ; and for a company of this sort, under proper management, and the Limited Inability Act, almost any amount of capital would be Subscribed, for that no business is so profitable as smelt ing is well known, and every person holding a share in a mine would be interested in subscribing. To show the miner how his profits are diminished by the present smelt ing monopoly has often been our task ; lot us again refer to the system under which he is compelled to sell his pro duce. The smelters are also the merchants in copper, and regulate the price of copper for the consumer and the ore for the miner, and both, it is scarcely necessary to say, fo suit their own purposes. A. mine having ore for sate " samples" it a fortnight before it is sold, and during this fortnight all the smelters take samples and have assays made, so that they know its exact value. The ticket ings, or weekly sales, supposed to be species of auctions, are nothing of the kind, for the smelters, or their agents meet together before the sale, and arrange, not only for the parcels each may require, but the prices they will give for them, so that as one will not bid against the other there is no competition, and the miner is compelled to take the price offered, because he has to rely upon the proceeds to meet his monthly expenses, in wages to men, &c., no advances can be got, except upon ore sales, for the smelters are the only bankers in the mining districts, and they are also the merchants, supplying materials, from candles to steam-engines. flow nicely, therefore, the whole thing works for the monopolists ! They keep down the price of ore at starvation point to the miner, until they get in a large stock of metal ; and to get a good profit out of the consumer of copper, they next meet in London, and put up the price ld. or 2d. per lb. Then to raise the spirits of the miner a bit, and to induce him to go on raising all he can, the standard creeps up, week after week, for a time. Well, having sold their large stock, the metal world is startled some fine morning with a drop of ld. per lb. in copper; and the mining world knows but too well that it is the pre cursor—in fact, the plea for again reducing the price of ore, preparatory to laying in another stock. We would ask any one who may have watched the market for the last 20 years, Is this picture overdrawn? And what will the uninitiated think of the following ? The miner is compelled to sell 21 cwts. to the ton ; here the smelter gets 5 per cent., and a mine selling 1,000 tons a month loses 50 tons of ore—say 2501. The expense of reducing ore to metal is about 1/. ls. per ton on the ore ; and in any other branch of business a manufac turer buying a crude material, to manufacture into an article upon which he realises a large profit, would be at the expense of the manufacture. Notso the s melters ; they make the miners pay by deducting 2/. 15. per ton from all the ores they buy, as returning charges. Ore of 5 per cent. prod sumcee,ltaetr de a sta d n u d e a ts rd 2l o . f l l s,. 301p.,eirs ton. Now, N 6l o . w lo , s s . u p p e p r o t s o i n n g ; the copper itself to be 1151. per ton (2/. less than its qnoten value), the fair value of the ore, at a produce of 5 per cent., is 51. 15s. per ton, according to the price of the copper ; and then, even allowing the smelter 1/. Bs., the 1 real cost of returning, the miner should receive 41. 7s. instead 6f 31. 155., and a mine selling 1,000 tons per month loses 6001. 6i 101 3i 4 31 2 101 k i i 92i 2 31 13 12i 60 58i 891 21g 23i 3 1 39 15a 59i 61i .0 all .0 all >0 10 )0 32! 3t. 100 3t. 100 it. 100 Bt. all ?.5 1 all 5 all 5 all all 1 20 18 00 1 all 5 all 10 Ws. 25 1,11 0 5 4 ail !O 10 LO all LO all 5 5 5 5 10 5 10 all 5 all 5 1 DO 80 t. 100 1 all 10 all 1 all 12 ss. 25 all 50 I all 1401140 .arfr..~`.C ti ,~~`'.

Gore, in three volumes, is just published by Messrs. Hurst and Blackett. In this last and pleasantest of her novels, Mrs. Gore has given us the ideal of the grand feature of the age, led the pageant of ancestral glories amidst the rattling looms of commerce, and welded into images °f all that is lovely in life and noble in character, t h e tra ditions of our nobles and th e d ar i ng energies ou r men of trade. We need scarcely add, t h e book being b y Mrs. Gore, that the light n i ng fl as h of satire relieves with its lustre the swiftly alternating scenes of pathos and passion. "The Two Aristocracies" most popular noel of this season. i s likely to be the _.._ A meeting of merchants and others interestfilin the Suez Canal project assembled in the Commer cial-rooms, Bristol, on Thursday, to hear explana tions from Mr. D. A. Lange, as representative of M. de Lesseps, as to the objects, advantages, : and feasibility of the enterprise. - Mr. T. P. JOSE, Master of the Society of Mer chant Venturers, was called to the chair ; and there were present M. de Lesseps, the Chevalier de Ilas carelhas, Portugueie Consul ; Messrs. Bevan, Wright, Wheeler, Wood, Bruce, Thomas, and other gentlemen. After stating the object of the meetiug the chairman called on Mr. D. A. Lange. Mr. LANGE commenced by stating that the Vice roy of Egypt had granted a concession to M. •de Lesseps, empowering him to form a company for constructing a canal through the Isthmus fur Suez. Several of the most eminent engineers of Europe had reported favourably as to the feasibility of the scheme. The distance to be cut through was only 92 miles, the width of the canal would he 329 feet in some parts, and 262 feet in others, and its depth 26 feet. The soil was well adapted for its forma tion, being compost, and the depression along 'tbe entire tract of the Isthmus where the canal has to be cut, was in its favour. There was no perceptible difference in the level of the two seas, consequently no locks would he required, and vessels would be able to to towed right through, witboir any delay or impediment, in about ten hours. There would be a charge of ten francs per ton on the regular ton nage of the ships, iLclusive of the expense of towagr., and vessels could, if required, coal at Purt Timsah, a harbour situated half way along the canal.. The Viceroy had granted a lease to the company of the lands through which the canal had to be made for 99 years, besides a grant of 250,000 acres, likely t be extremely productive, and had, at his own ex pense, commenced the branch canal from Cairo to Lake Timsah, about 60 mile& The cost of execu ting this canal would be about 360,000/., and it was necessary for the project, for purposes of irrigation, for carrying on the trade between Lake Tinasah and Cairo, and for supplying sweet water for the execu tion of the labours of the grand canal. As to the anticipated advantages, Mr. Lange stated that, notwithstanding the number of vessels employed by the Peninsular and Oriental Company, the traffic was so rapidly increasing that. only the other day the company announced their intention of despatching extra steamers both for the outward and homeward voyage. The dangers of the Cape route - were universally known, whereas the Red Red Sea is admitted to be of easy navigation. By the Cape route coaling stations were few ; and though the construction of such enormous ships as the Great Eastern was intended to obviate that difficulty, it was too much to suppose that the trade with India and China could afford t 3 wait for the general construction of such vessels, and it was satisfactory to owners of the present class of steam vessels to know that the opening of the Suez canal would enable them to maintain their position in the shipping trade. By the canal route they would have the advantage of coaling stations at Gibraltar, Malta, Port Said, and Aden. Three hundred failures had taken place at Melbourne in one year owing to the present uncertain mode of transit. With regard to India the great Indian cotton question had been recently brought before the country. Attention had been directed to Can deish in India, a province consisting of 5,000,000 acres, and capable of supplying all the cotton wants of England. But the great difficulty in carrying out this desirable end was the want of regularity and the delay in transit. Now the opening of the Suez Canal would enable steam-vessels of all sizes to contribute to these requirements. Sailing ves sels, too, might largely share in the advantages of the shorter route. The capital required was 8,000,000/. At 5 per cent. that would give a sum of 400,0001. annually. To that was to be added 63,0001. for the, annual maintenance of the canal. Now it only required two vessels of 2,500 tons each to yield double that sum. The annual amount of tonnage passing round the Cape from countries in Europe is 3,000,000 tons, of which we might calculate on two-thirds passing through the canal, and if the future probable deve lopment of our trade, especially with China, was looked to, the success of the scheme appeared even more decided. After dilating at some length on the impulse which the canal would afford to the guano trade, and to that of a variety of African . and Abyssinian. productions, Mr. Lange stated that nearly the whole of the capital had been reserved, and in the following proportions :—Egypt and Turkey, two millions ; Germany, Holland, and Belgium, one million ' • North of Europe, one million ; United States, Spain, and Italy, one million ; France, 1,500,000/4 England, 1,500,000'. When the news arrived in Egypt that it had been decided to reserve only two millions for Egypt, including Turkey, great disappointment was felt, and although the list had never been fully opened, the shares, much against the wish of M. de Lesseps, were sold at 8 and 9 per cent. premium. In reply to questions, Mr. Lange stated that it was part of the scheme to keep steamers to tow vessels through the canal, and that no extra charge would. be made for them ; that it was uncertain whether steamers would be kept at Gibraltar by the company or by some private company ; and that with regard to the shifting of the; sand in the Mediterranean, the engineers had made particular inquiry and reported , favourably. Mr. R. P. KING moved, and Mr. E. SLATGATER seconded, the following resolution :—" That this meeting is gratified with the explanations afforded. by M. de Lesseps and Mr. Lange, and highly ap proves of the proposed ship canal across the Isth mus of Suez, being of opinion that it is of great importance to- the commerce of the whole world, and that it would afford facilities which no railway could present." The resolution was carried unanimously. Mr. E. BEVAN moved, and Mr. R. BRUCE seconded, a resolution that a memorial, founded on the foregoing resolution, should be entrusted to the members for the City for presentation to parlia ment. The resolution was carried unanimously. After a vote of thanks to M. de Lesseps, Mr. Lange, and the chairman, the proceedings termi nated. LLOYD'S SHIPPING. -(This Day.)
