The motion was then withdrawn. This concluded the general business. HEALTH COMMITTEE The weekly meeting of this board was :held yesterday, 8,. Shell, Esq., D.C., in the chair. The other , members p r ese nt were—Messrs. erellin, : Beckwith, Crosthwaite, Avison, Anthony, Ilaydeek, Bowring, Barton, .and Stitt: The Borough Engineer, .Building Surveyor, and Inspector of Nuisances, reported various particulars of the operations in their several departments during the week, from which it appeared that 178 nuisances com plained of by inhabitants'had been inspected, and means taken to remedy them; 1,183 houses in the unhealthiest districts, containing 3,687 apartments, and 942 cellars, had been put under examination, with the viewuof im proving their sanitary condition ; and 2211odging-houses had also been examined, and reported upon. Yesterday, 54 sanitary informations were heard before the magis trates, against , parties who had not complied with notices to abate nuisances, and various fines were inflicted. Mr. Fresh also reported that Mr. Ellison has commenced removing the condemned meat, &c., from the markets to a yard . of his in Creswell-street, where' it will be destroyed by chemical means, under the direct inspection of the markets officers, 'and which is pursuant to a resolution of the markets' codunittee. After its destruction, he will remove the remains forthwith to his farm, near Rainhill. Also that Mr. Rose and himself have agreed upon an alteration of the several confines of the 'districts into which the town has hitherto been divided and sectioned for the removal of middens. The number of sections will remain the same, but the outlines are proposed to be altered—and which, it is thought, will be an improve ment upon the present system. A coloured plan, laid upon the table with this report, defines the extent of the proposed new sections. The new lines of demarcation marked are certainly better than the old ones. HEALTH OF THE TOWS. The medical officer's report Atated that the deaths in the borough, for the week ending the sth inst., were 243, being a decrease of 29 as • compared with the previous week, and 9 as compared with the average of the same week of the preceding ten years, corrected for the increase of population. The deaths in the parish were 168, and in the out-townships 75. Zymotic diseases were fatal to 60 children; and 9 Adults, in all 69, against 75 in the week preceding, of whom 15 were from scarlatina ; 15 from measles (and 9 in the Work house), 5 in Scotland Ward, and 1 in Everton ; 12 from hooping cough ; 9 from typhus and typhied fever, 5 from croup ; 5 from diarrhoea; 3 from diphtheria ; 1 from purpura ; 1 from influenza; 1 from small-pox, not vac cinated. A married female, aged 54, died from excessive drinking. LODGLNG-HOUSES A recommendation was read, suggesting a slight re muneration to the police-inspectors who had the visiting of common lodging-houses, and Mr. Stitt, after stating the duties of the inspectors, moved that £5O be granted to seven inspectors for their services. Mr. Beckwith would like to. have some further infor mation on the subject, and said a sub-committee ought. to report . on the matter. Mi. Stitt, in reply said, in 1856 £3O was granted for three years, and the £5O now sought was for a like number of years. After a short discussion, it was resolved, on the motion of Mr. Beckwith, seconded by Mr. Anthony, that the question be referred to the sub-committee—the principle being already recognised by the former grant. SAINT ANNE'S CHURCH-YARD A long correspondence was read by Mr. M'Gowan, in reference to this church-yard (the whole has been already before the public several times.) The question now arose in consequence of an application made by the Rev. Mr. Wheeler; of St. Anne's, to the Earl of Derby, to have his name removed from certain criminal proceeding?. that took place some time since, under the following circum stances. In 1851, an order was issued by Lord Palmer ston, preventing burials in all church-yards except St. Anne's. This was subsequently found to be a mistake, and the reverend gentleman was cautioned by the health committee not to allow any burials in St. Anne's, but he, relying on the letter of Lord Palmerston, continued to allow burials. He was pro ceeded against, and fined in a nominal penalty of Is., he promising ' to discontinue the burials, which he did, and his application to Lord Derby was to have his name removed from that fine. The reason the subject came before the committee now was, that the chief copy of the whole correspondence. _ This was ordered by the board. ry regtllT The routine business was then transacted, and the board adjourned. HISTORIC SOCIETY, The usual meeting of this society was held in the Grand Jury Room, 6t. George's Hall, at seven o'clock, last night. Mr. Edward Heath presided. The following donations,were Kesented to the society : From the Society of Arts, the Journal of the Society, Nos. 319 to 323, inclusive ; from the Cambridge Philosophical Society, Volume 10 of its Transactions ; from the author, " Town Life ;" from the author, " Liverpool, Past and Present, by James Newlands, C.E. ;" and from Mr. Newlands, " Sanitary Legislation, by W. F. M'Gowan." Mr. John Mewbuna, 30, Richmond-terrace, and Mr. Henry Peter Meakin„Burnley, were elected members of the society. Mr. Barnes exhibited a black-letter copy of "The Discovery of Witchcraft, by Reginald. Scott." Dr. Hume exhibited a black figure of androgynous appearance, found near Rome ; and some fibres of the holly- hock plant, greatly resembling flax or hemp. Mr. H. Johnson laid before the society a copy of Chamberlayne's "ANGLLIR NOTIME. " The paper for the evening was by Mr. Hugh Shimmin,. author of " Liverpool Life," " Town Life," &c. Its title was " The Home Education of the People—How' it may . be Improved." The paper was in some measure a following up of one read to the society a few weeks ago by the same author, the object of which was to point' out some imperfections in the present efforts made to elevate the home character of the working , classes. The writer started with the statement, that the character of the Englishman's home was rather retrograding than advancing. In some existing schemes and systems of popular education, the writer seemed to believe that the intellect is improved at the expense of the moral nature. Intemperance, it need hardly be said, was pointed out as the principal weakness and curse of the poorer classes and to cope with this evil was urged as the primary object to which united effort should be directed. The writer especially recommended house to house visitation by visitors of a suitable class, who he declared should be more remarkable for sound common sense in the ordinary affairs of life than for their expertness in untying the knots of theological disputation. Working men them selves, he declared, would be as efficient agents in such a work as this as they, had been in promoting, advocating, and establishing the temperance movement. The writer also remarked that ladies seemed 'to be looking for employment of this kind just now, and he sliould have thought a workhouse was not the sphere where such labours were most required. The homes of poor working men, he suggested, as a much more fitting scope for visi tation—a sphere where it was more needed and would be more effective. On the subject of house visitation many valuable and practicable suggestions were given, especially in reference to the absence of scrupulous delicacy, which allows some visitors to intrude themselves unceremoniously, and at unfitting seasons, into the homes of the poor. As to the education of children, a sound, practical, well-grounded, and common-sense system was earnestly recommended—one which should concern itself rather with the thorough teachirg of a few needful things, than the getting through many subjects, which made no impression on the young mind, lent no aid to the growing years, and produced no effect upon the matured life. The paper which touched upon many subjects which' have been necessarily passed over here without allusion, was listened to with much interest, and at its conclusion loudly applauded.

But why should bakers, ce c sugar refiners, and other manufacturers, be amenable to the sanatory act of Parliament, when the iron works in Sefton-street is permitted to send out of their shafts such dense matter, that it completely darkens the locality wherein it is situated? The same laws 'that govern ignition and combusti on i n the furnaces of sugar ref i ners and rice cleaners, are open to the iron works in Sefton-street, though not applied in both furnaces one way, caused by a difference being in the latter to melt metal, and in the former fires to produce steam, as coal is but carbon, whether used in iron works, or breweries, or steam-boats. —Yours, &c., SOOT. WORKHOUSE COMMITTEE usual weekly meeting of this Caliniiittee \vas held, yesterday morning, 'in the Board-room of the Workhouse, Brownlow-hill ; Mr. Churchwarden Cropper in the chair. The other 'members present, were—Messrs. Bairstow, Owen, • Critchley, Smith, 'Byford; Syred, Peck, Melly, Denton, Cafferata, and Broome. REPORTS OF VISITORS. The Visitors' Report Book was read , and the following entries were made : Mr. T. B. Brown, inspector of schools , visited the schools at the Workhouse, and he thought the children were making fair progress in all the schools, more especially the boys ; and there was a fair staff of teachers. He did not Undeistand how it happened that the boys were so much more numerous than the girls. Mr. S. B. Jackson, one of the Visiting' Committee, reported as•follows :—" t have for a length of time been concerned to observe the absence of any provision for the ready extinction 'of fire, 'shOuld it once break out in this vast establishment, containing a population iof 2,300 souls, 1,500 of whom are helpless. Having thus draVvn the attention of the vestry to this very serious matter, I leave with them the responsibility of further inattention thereto:" Mr. Turner, the other visitor, concurred in the report. Mr. Wylie, the,surveyor, was requested to report on the matter next week. THE RETURNS The Medical Ouilcer reported that the number of deaths during the week was 20, of whom 7 were men, 4 women, and 9 infants under 2 years' old. The number of sick poor in the hospital last week was 672 ; new cases admitted since, 137; cured and discharged, 136 ; now remaining'under treatment, 653, of whom 43 were fever, 16 itch, and 11 small-pox cases. The Master of the Vagrant Sheds reported that there were relieved in this department during the week ending 15th inst., as follows :-176 males, 68 females, and 5 children—total, 249 ; showing an increase over last week, in males of 33 ; females, 2 ; decrease in children, 11; and a nett decrease under the corresponding week of last year, of 12. The Governor's return showed that the number of paupers in the establishment last week was 2,425 ; number this week, 2,348, being a decrease on the' week of 77 ; number in the corresponding week of last year, 2,691, showing a decrease on the year of 266. HOMEOPATHY V. ALLOPATITY Mr. Denton rose to move the resolution which he had given notice of last week. He said he had no doubt that he should incur the displeasure of many of his most valued friends who practised allopathy, but still he considered it a duty which devolved on him, and not only upon him but upon all the members of the vestry, to see that the patients of that house were cured in as short a time as possible,_ and with as little expense as possible to the parish. He had stated, at the previous meeting, that that was not a proper arena for the discussion as to whether allopathy or homoeopathy was the better system to practise, but it the chairman would bear with him, he should be obliged, to introduce to them a few facts which had c-mvinced him that homoeopathy was worth their notice, and worthy to ba placed side by side with the present practice of allopathy. Mr. Denton read an extract from the Albion, stating that, according to the report of the Royal Infirmary for 1856, the number of patients was 2,706 ; and the sum paid for, drugs including £l3 18s 6d for leeches,' and £2l 16s for linseed meal poultices, was £3lB lls 4d; that was 2s 44d for each patient. And, according to the report of the Homoeo pathic Dispensary, the number of patients during the same period, was 3,898; and the sum paid for medicines, (no leeches or poultices being used) was £26 5s ; that was lid for each patient. There would thus be a saving to the Infirmary of 2s nd on each patient in physic alone by the introduction of Homoeopathy, and under it, it had been clearly proved, patients recovered, much more quickly and in much greater numbers. Had the patients treated at the Homoeopathic Dispensary, been treated at the Infirmary, instead of costing £26 ss, they would have cost somethiti o rr like the enormous sum of £458 16s 6d. The Chairman: But you do not 'give us the results Mr.,Booln You used no poultices, Mr.,Denton asked protection froni such remarks, and .then - proceeded to say that, as regarded : the time for tke curing of these. patients, he held a xeport in his hand, published by the Royal College of.urgeons, Edinburgh, from which it appeared, by a statement published by the Royal Edinburgh Infirinary, comparing the treatment of cases .by , the two systern;; that in the treatment of inflammation .of the lunp, out of 909 cases treated allopathically 212 died, being 23 per cent , or nearly one in four ; homdeoliathically 299 cases, and only 19 died, about six per cent., or.one in fifteen. Pleurisy treated allopathically; out of 111 cases 14 died, being 13 per cent, or 1 in 8.: Homceopatbically, out of 224 cases 3 died, about one per cent; or one in a hundred. This was merely, Mr. Denton said, to paint out the data from which he had formed his conclusion. He considered the time had arrived when they should give , encouragement to this system, which had been lately adopted, and which he thought ought to have their support. They knew that all great discoveries, had had great opposition. He instanced, the discdvery of the cirmilation of the blood, and, in his own time ' the treatment of vaccination. •The opposition was most fearful, with regard to vaccination; but still he .believed truth would prevail, and in his opinion, at no distant time, homceopathy would succeed, and become the general Fractiee of medical men. He, therefore, begged to move that, in all future advertise ments for medical ineu for the Warkhou3e, hornce Dpathists be not excludod. The Chairman said that tile notice which was put in the papers did not exclude homoeopathists. Mr:Cafferata said, such a. motion was useless as the advertisement did not exclude homeopathic practitioners, provided they were properly qualified "men according to the requirements of the Poor-law Board. Mr. Peck seconded the motion, and sail that it might so happen that the form of advertisement did exclude homeopathists; still the public generally were not aware of it. homoeopathy had been considered by some of the bigoted medical profession of Liverpool as quackery and charlatanism ; and it might therefore be understood by the public generally, in consequence of that opinion being pronounced by the medical profession, that homoeo pathists would be excluded from that house. He thought there could be no opposition to appending something to the effect of the resolution to the advertisement. This would show the public that they were more enlightened and further advanced in progress than the majority of the medical profession in this wn. This was not a time in which any science could be stifled or extinguished, as was sought to be effected by the outrageous remarks which some of the medical profession made. Mr. Broome said they had every necessary for carrying out the present system, and he thought it would be a waste of time to discuss such a proposition as Mr. Denton's. He believed homoeopathy to be absurd and ridiculous. Mr. Denton had said that it was less expen sive, but he could show that it was more expensive. As for their medicines, the most frivolous was immensely expensive. _ _ _ Critchley said, he foresaw great difficulties in this matter, and he hoped Mr. Denton would not press his motion. He was sure no properly qualified Mau would work with a homoeopathist. lie was . of opinion at the same time that they both killed more th an th e y cured, and he thought the less medicine people used the better, and he had so far been able to do without the services of either. He conceived 'how the old people in the house would receive a " globule," if it was proscribed for them by a homoeopathist. They would say itwas all a humbug. Mr. Bairstow said, he would trust his wife in the hands of a homoeopathist, but, at the same time, he did not see the necessity of Mr. Denton's motion. They could not dictate t 9 their medical men what system they practised, and, by the advertisement, homoeopathists were not ex cluded ; and the two systems coulcinot be divided in the house. Mr. M , 311y said, that when they found that homcco pathists were not excluded at present, they should not pass such a resolution as Mr. Denton moved, as it would only be inviting them to come forward, and allopathists would then think there was no use in their, coming forward. lie was not again* homceopathy, because he believed there was a great deal in it, and, by that dis cussion, the practitioners of this system would see that they were not excluded. Mr. Peck said, in that case, his object was served. Mr. Denton said, he quite agreed with Mr. Critchley, that the less medicine people used the better;. and, as to the remarks of Mr. Bairstow, he thought it was quite possibleto divide the practitioner s o f b o th systems in the house. They could be divided into different sections, and he thought they ought to 'make a trial after the reports that had been made. He decidedly objected to, withdraw ing his -motion, as had b een suggested. Homceopathists were under the impression that they were excluded, and he believed virtually. they were, from the feeling expressed by the committee. - Mr. Williams said, in the event of, a homoeopathist being elected for the house, they should have . nothing but confusion Mr. Melly said, if they applied, they could be voted for the same as others. • Mr. Smith gave an instance in which a homoeopathist did apply and got four votes, and the successful candidate got' only two more votes. The motion was then put and lost by a large majority. - The Chairman remarked, as the motion had been lost, they could not elect an inferior officer practising another system than that practised by the superior, as the inferior was obliged to carry out the orders of the superior. The matter. then dropped, and this concluded the business. THE NORTHERN TIMES, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1859 TOXTETH PARK BOARD OF GUARDIANS. Yesterday the usual weekly meeting of these 'guardians was held in the Board-room of the Public °fees . , Park road. The following guardians were present :---Thomas Urquhart, Esq., chairman ; . Messrs. William Baynes, John Moss, - William Leyland, John Wilson, Joseph Wilson, Joseph %Harrison, Samuel Siddeley, William Johnston, Arthur arindrod, William Henry Ogden, David Craig, Henry Leyland, J. B. Hughes, : John Rogers, and M. A. Johns. The Board proceeded to the out-door relief of -paupers chargeable on the parish. _ _ . • The -workhouse report showed the' number of inmates in the house to be-381 last week, this week 362 ; corres ponding week last year, 419 ; sick poor in the house this week, 32. Mr., Moss moved that cheques be granted—to the relieving officers for L 135 ; for payment of poor labourers, £3O ; and to Messrs. Kilpin and Montgomery £l,OOO, as an instalment on the building ,in process :of beiug . erected. He thought that they had not been . losinm time in the erection of that building, though ° they had been com plained of as tedious, - consideruvr th# it was only four months commenced, and in the winter season. .The Chairman said, the neat business was the medical officer's, case, which had he.en under, their notice last week. The Clerk read Mr. Archibald's opinion in the matter as follows : " I think that the medical officers have no legal claim to retain their offices nntil. September next. The question depends upon the construction to be given to the ordering of the Poor-law Board. The second part of_ the order is in this substance, that althotigh the appoint ment be a specified term, yet the guardians, if they will, may provide for the continuance of the term; but if they do not, the right of the officers to exercise the office shall cease at the end of the specified term. Here these officers were appointed on the Ist October, 1857, to hold their offices until the 30th "September, 1858. Their offices then determined, as no provisions were made by the guardians for the con tinuance of the officers in their respective offices. The guardians not having appointed other officers in their places, according to the authority to that effect in the second part of the orders, cannot, I think, have the effect• of enlarging the term of office of these officers beyond the " specified term mentioned in their appointments; , the effect of that part of the order is to enable the guardians to aPpoint other officers to succeed the present ones, although the term of office of the latter have not as yet expired, and there is not as yet au actual vacancy. .UPon the who e, I think the present officers 'are oa suffrage inerely; that the guardians may put an end to that state,of thing's at any time they please. Mr. Moss said, that opinion would 'enable them to satisfy the medical officers, as 'they could now give them Mr. Archibald's opinion under the Poor-law ,Board. Mr. Johns said, he could not understand it. If the medical officers had been acting under suffrage they would charge for what - they had done, and not on' salary. The Clerk suggested that a copy of the opinion be sent to each of the medical officers. . Mr. Moss made a motion to that effect. Mr. 'Wilson moved, that they should proceed to adver 7 tise for new medical officers. The Chairman : There are several points which Nye will require to take up first. Mr. Hughes gave notice of a motion last board day, which, I think, he will see the necessity of withdrawing to-day. Mr. Hughes withdrew the motion. The Clerk read the following minutes of the medical relief. committe • - " Dr. Gilmour having beep requested to explain why he had not attended to his duties, with respect to . twelve paupers whose cases were brought before the guardians at their last meeting, admitted that he had not visited any patient under his. charge during the last fortnight, in consequence of his having had to attend two , malig nant cases_of small pox. Dr. Gilmour also admitte that during this period the signatures of his name to the certificates were not genuine. " Resolved- 7 , that this meeting be adjourned until Tuesday next, at four o'clock." " The relieving-officer, 111 - Williams, having reported that the whole of the cases (30 in number or thereabout) which had, by direction of the committee, been visited by him, had not been attended by Dr. Gilmour, although the certificate relating to sick cases bore his name, it was moved by Mr. Moss, and seconded by Mr. Craig, and resolved—" That, in consequence of such reports, and in consideration of Dr. Gilmour having admitted that he had not attended any case daring the last fortnight, and that the twetve cases before investigated were not genuine, it be recommended that Dr. Gilmour be suspended from his office, and that Mr. Drawbridge be employed to attend to his district until the determination of the Poor-law Board be known." A question arose, as to whether the resolution of the committee should be read to Dr. Gilmour, as he was in attendance, and wished to say something to the guardians. The Clerk said, he had already furnished Dr. Gilmour with a copy of the resolution. Dr. Gilmour was then called, and The Chairman said, he supposed he was acquainted with the circumstances of the case brought before the board. Dr. Gilmour said, h 3 wished to say a few words to the board. He appeared before the committee, and told them that he was very sorry that he had allowed his assistant to take his place. He would tell the board that his assistant was under three months notice to leave, and that he would keep no person in his place in future. He believed that the work had• been well dose. He was not aware that he was doing any wrong ; however, he would not put that' forward as an excuse, but would say that it would • not occur again so low" as he had any connection with the board of guardians. *When he got a copy of the resolution of the committee, he thought it was very harsh, and he still thought so, as he was sure the work had been well done. He had been twelve years crmnected with the guardians, aria in the same district, and that was the first complaint : . _ _ Mr. Wilson said, as chairman of the committee, and Dr. Gilmour having expressed his regret that he had allowed the matter to be in the hands of an assistant for a fortnight, he looked back over the certificates as far as November, and found the certificates signed-in the same handwriting as that acknowledged by Dr. Gilmour himself to be his assistant's, and Dr. Gilmour 'had said it was only fore a fortnight. That, he thought, rather aggravated the matter. He, however, thought it better to make-these remarks in D:. Gilmour's presence, - Dr. Gilmour said, he wished to correct the statement made Mr. Wilson, as he did not state to the committee that it was only for a fortnight. Ha made an excuse for a fortnight only, because during that time he had two cases of small pox to attend to, and that was the time called in question. He would leave the matter in the hands.of the guardians. He then retired. Mr. Moss l'6'ok-ed upon the office of a guardian as one entailing a double "responsibility—to care for the poor people placed under their charge, and also the pockets of the rate Payers. Now, Dr. Gilmour could not be other wise than aware that he was neglecting his duty ; and, as a proof that he was attending to it, 'he was to give a certificate under his own hand, and it had been found that these certificates 'were all in the handwriting of his assistant. It was too bad to think that Dr. Gilmour, who was receiving a salary of nearly £2OO a-year, for attending to the poor people; amongst whoni was to be found all manner of disease that flesh is heir to, entrusting it to a young and inexperienced assistant. When they would look at the case in its proper light, they would see that if the father of a family took sick and died for want of any medical relief, his family would be thrown chargeable on the ratepa,yers, and even if he did get better ke would be unable to support. them for a long time, in consequence of his long illness. He was sure that under the 'circumstances there was not a man in the room that would sanction such proceedings. lie was very sorry to 1111V3 in the case of Dr. Gilmour, who was his neighbotir, that the report of the medical com mittee be confirmed, and sent to the Poor-law Board, and, in the meantime, that Mr. Drawbridge take his place. ' Mr. Wilson seconded the motion, beCauso he thought it would look very ridiculous on their part to do otherwise. Mr, Rogers gave his support to the confirmation of the proceedings of tilt) commit - tee. Mr. Harrison Moved an amendment, which he after wards withdrew. Mr. Moss read a letter which he had received from a member of the body called Quakers, relative to the pur chase of a piece of land, for the purpose of formitig a cemetery. The land adjoining SMithdown-lane was the portion in question, which measured 6,540 yards, andfor which they proposed to give £1,200, on the condi tion, that the guardians would join' them in building a wall between the the two .properties, and run the water out of the pit ; and also allow them to construct a drain with that of the guardians. Some discussion took place with regard 40 this proposal, and it was finally agreed to offer the ground for £1 , 300, and that the Quakers take all expe nses on themselves. Mr. Harrison gave notice of motion, with regard to electing a master and matron for the new workhouse. This ended the business. MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. _LivEiwoint, Thursday Evening.

The Loudon market for English Funds and Securities opened. with ,increased fimness, owing to the improvement which had been reported in. French and Austrian funds. A continuance of the• upward movement would• soon lead. to a general re.; covert' in English Stocks and Railway Shares, and already an inclination is shown to speculate for an advance, although'business at present is very quiet, and the dealers are now occupied with the liquidation of the account in foreign and railway securities. Consols were' as high as 951, but a few sales has, caused a slight relapse. and the receipt 'of later information from the Paris Bourse is awaited with some curiosity. Altogether the complexion of the several markets is more favour able than for several' days past. The New Threes and' Reduced Annuities are at slightly enhanced rates.

In explanation of the movement in Peruvian Bonds, it is stated that the Peruvian Government has in contemplation a new plan of finance especially affecting the holders of the debt. There is an idea of calling in the existing bonds of the various classes, and issuing in exchange one class of bands; redeemable within five years, and' secured upon the whole, of the guano revenue. This proposal - is said to be dic tated by the extreme difficulty experienced by the government in procuring from time to time the amount of bonds required for eaneelment under the sinking fund. For instance, as already pointed out, bonds of the Anglo-Peruvian Four and a Half per Cent. Debt to 'the amount of about .£130,000 must be procured next month, and the Peruvian agents scarcely know where to turn for the re- quisite supply A general improvement has taken place in the Stock Market, and at the close of business some excitement was apparent, occasioned by a report that Austria had consented to withdraw her forces from the States of the Church, upon the condition that the French army shall evacuate Rome. Throughout the Stock Exchange the tendency at the close. of business was very favourable. The Funds have risen 1 4 , to 5-16. English, French, Lombardo-Venetian, and - Indian Railway Shares were all better. Investments in the latter have been stimu lated by the late fall.- Undiminished ease prevailed in the Discount Market. to-day. There were no bullion operations at the Bank. , Compared, with the closing , quotations on the Paris Bourse of yesterday, an improve ment of i to a, per cent. is shown in the Three. per Cent. Rentes.—Daily News City Article Wednesday Evening. The English Funds opened this morning at a decline of 4 per cent. ; but, in the absence of unfavourable news,- experienced a rally, and have closed with a firm appear ante.--Times City Article, Wednesday Evening. A dividend of 13-16 d. to ls. in the ponad has just been announced on the estate of Fry and Chapman, the bankers, who failed more than t .venty years ago. • In the circular of Mr, G. F. Satterthwaite it is stated that the imminence of continental troubles has stimulated the disposition, to invest in the current United States' stocks, and in the best class of American railway bonds. The London Colonial Wool Sales are fixed to com mence on Thursday, the 24th inst. The announcement of a Russian loan will nut likely be long deferred. The Daily News says that, at the Indigo Sales on Wednesday, consuming qualities were sold more readily, and there was generally more competition for indigo under 7s per lb. The Indian financial statement to be made by Lord Stanley, on MOnday next, is anticipated with great interest. A dangerous fraud is pointed out in the Times as emanating from Manchester. It consists in the swindler taking a room in a large building for offices, and ?Aswan, with some slight deviation, the name of a sterling . 61 ; orders right and left for a few days the tr ti li c o ut description of - goods that, by some means, he the - party deals in: • _ rime gar' The new loan--was issued on Wednesday.
