Medical Committee were empowered to make Dimas with four respectable druggists in the for such medicines as might be required during /suing three months for the use of the poor. r. Cleaver, the clerk to the board, read the following bierrsent THE GUARDIANS OF THE POOR OF THE TOWNSHIP " OF TOXTETII-PARK 1 " Gentlemen,—The first election of guardians of the poor fur ttlis township, in 1857, was conducted by Mr. Avison, wilcitor, who was appointed returning officer by virtue of an caviar of the Poor-law Board, directed to the overseers of the &cot; and at the first meeting of the guardians elected Avison, pursuant to the said order, delivered to them tbir voting papers used in such election. On the same day "ire papers were confided to my keeping as the clerk to 'l.a guardians, and the key of the closet in which they were sikposited was handed to me by the board. This said closet sz. 4tuate in a room in the public office opposite to the •lirdroom "After the election in April last year, I placed in the Janie closet the voting papers relating to such election, and maitl my own hand locked the door of such closet, and have resmined in my possession the key from that time to the 'resent. " On Monday last I received information that an entrance %sal been effected into the closet in question, and the voting !risers, or a portion of them, taken out. lA-I 'went - immediately to the public office, and having oistairied access to the room in which the closet was situate, end the door of the latter unfastened, and upon a casual iiiipection of the voting papers, perceived that the bundles lay which they were tied had been recently opened. I there von took possession of all the voting papers, have since Al.-lined them, and at this time have them in the board >a, awaiting the direction of the guardians as to their sLtme custody. may state, in passing, that the guardians are required, order of the Poor-law Board, to preserve the voting livers two years at the least. "With reference to the impropriety of the proceedings I srae. thus related, so far as it affects the board, it is not in 31wr province to speak ; but I consider that I have personally a rat (MUSE to complain of it as an act which, had it not been ilsomered, might have led to consequences which wouldhave tiled serious blame, if not disgraCe, on myself as your ; and I trust that, should hereafter any of the papers erred to be either missing, mutilated, or altered, I shall e held responsible. —I am, gentlemen, your obedient "WILLIAM CLEAVER. wzlvut, 'Board-room, March 24, 1859." Mr_ Moss: I hope the gentlemen who are implicated in this artter will give an explanation. Mae- Chairman: You are assuming that members of this Beard have committed this felony. Now, Ido hope that lo of them would do such a thing, and I hope Mr. Moss I not identify such a proceeding with the members of this trli- I will protect them from anything of the kind. Sir. Moss : I don't think they want your protection, and have no doubt that they will come forward and state ,fi• reasons for doing so. lam not conversant with the nsaction. I think after the very proper remarks of Mr. r no member will refuse to give what he knows of Itter, and I think it necessary that they should. Chairman : I think it was very proper for Mr. r to bring this matter before the board. 'son : Whose propertyshould these voting papers Cleaver : The Guardians Nr John Wilson : I know something about this matter, sod I have heard it stated by the Overseers that they have right of access to any papers in this building, and no rrsitn or place should be locked against them. It appears tiaNt the first batch of voting papers were in the hands of Avison, and it was a disputed point who should have gr-ss , ession of the first batch of voting papers. As to the mussseers having looked into this room, I know something 4'4 - , and lam not ashamed to acknowledge it. I. am not a "-felon," and I think the word "felon," as used by 1t chairman, was uncalled for (hear). lae. Chairman : I think it is a felony to break a lock. Moss: With a felonious intent. Tile Chairman : Of course. :Mr. Moss : Just so. T. Wilson: I don't see the use of "me speaking with iterruption The Chairman : Gentlemen, will you bear Mr. Wilson. but right you should hear him, as he is implicated in tflii disgraceful transaction. Mr. iitilson: Some time ago it was hinted that a certain kPity of Toting papers had been abstracted out of the batch. A certain printer was asked about the matter, Ng Be was stated to have sent several more than was ordered a*v place which he would not name. This work was said Cik - ie done at improper hours. All this was heard by the wct , rseers, and they thought it well to have a peep at these wers.. They did look in at them, and the papers were iikpirt back into their place, and the closet locked. In a rim days after other parties come and break the lock to get kat? , the cupboard, and then they insist that it was open, 32r.. Cleaver : I am prepared to swear it, sir. ler. Wilson : Well, well.

I very often hear that much from you, and no more. I will move that Mr. Cleaver's statement, and Mr. Wilson's reply, be sent to the Poor-law Board, as I have already said. We have not the power, as a committee, to get the necessary information, and the Poor law Board can compel it. The Chairman : We don't delegate our power to the com mittee, but merely that they should report to the board on the subject. _ . _ _ Mr. Rogers : I will second the amendment proposed by Mr. Moss, for I suppose it is an amendment. I think it would be well to have the matter referred to the people in London. lam very sorry to hear such statements made, if there be truth in them, which I think there is, or they would not have been made. Mr. Siddeley : I will vote for committee at once. lam met by people outside, who are talking -about certain matters which are going on with us that should not be, and I want to stand before the public in a proper light. Mr. Hughes : I will support the motion by Mr. Harrison for committee. I say we cannot tell, when they met themselves, - and no one with them, whether papers been put fn or abstracted Mr: Wilson : That's our business. Mr. Hughes : You should have brought it before the board. Mr. Johnson : Can a committee of this board have the privilege of calling witnesse s . Mr. Moss : Not for a felonious crime. Mr. Wilson : Had this been a misdemeanor or a felony, your humble servant would not have been here to-day, as enquiry has been made. Mr. Henry Layland said Mr. Johns was implicated, and if they talked of picking locks and charges of felony, let it be general. Mr. Cleaver said, when he heard of the picking of the locks, he was going up the street to inform them of it, when he met Mr. Johns and Mr. Siddeley, who were going to his office on the same errand, .to see the state of the office. He asked the caretaker where the key was, and she told him that she had given it to Mr. Joseph Wilson ; that he got the keys on the Satur day, and she had not seen them since. Mr. Barnett was asked about the matter, and he said he saw the overseers in, but all the harm was done when he saw them. They sent for the keys to Mr. Joseph Wilson, but he would not send them. They then sent for a locksmith, and broke the door open, but the press was open. Mr. Moss insisted that the matter should not be left to a committee, as it was nothing but a party question: Mr. Harrison said, the whole thing had assumed a degree of importance which he did not think would be attached to it. He would be a bold man that would say that Mr. Horsfall, Mr. Ewing, Mr. Aspinall, and others, who had formed the first board there, would have attempted to hold their seats, if obtained in a disreputable manner. He would say, let thein go into committee, and report on it next week. He thought he had kept as clear as possible from naming party men for the committee, but he would have no objec tion to have Mr. Moss as a member. Mr. Moss : I wash my hands of your dirty work. The resolution and amendment were then put to the Tote, and the former was carried. Mr. Joseph Wilson moved that a special meeting of the guardians should be held on Monday at 10 o'clock, the object of which did not transpire. The motion was ai . reed to. this concluded the business DOCK BOARD The usual weekly meeting of this board was held yester day, Mr. Brocklebank in the chair. The other members present were—Messrs. Rankin, Bold, Segar, Rounthwaite, Shand, Littledale, James Holme, Anderson, Farnworth, Moss, Langton, Forwood, Smith, Lockett, and Boult. WORKS COMMITTEE The proceedings of this committee were read, but con tained nothing calling for special notice. They were confirmed on the motion of Mr. Shand. WAREHOUSE COMMITTEE In the proceedings of this committee it was stated, that a deputation from the Cotton Broker's Association waited upon the committee, in reference to the warehouse charges, and made suggestions as to the greater facility for delivery The deputation were informed that the charges could not be altered, but every consideration would be given to the suggestions, as to the greater facility for delivery. The proceedings were confirmed on the motion of Mr. Arnold. MARINE COMMITTEE. The proceedings of this committee were confirmed without any special remark. PILOTS COMMITTEE Mr. Shand moved the confirmation of the procoedings of this committee, and called attention to the fact that some of their servants bad been charged with misconduct, and stated that it was the determination of the committee to uphold the service in the most perfect manner possible. DOCKS AND QUAYS COMMITTEE The proceedings of this committee contained a reeom mendation to appoint Geo. Caulfield as pier master at the Albert Dock, at a salary of eighty pounds a year ; also George Palmer and Edward Edwards as head gatemen. They further recommended that bills should be posted, cautioning captains from giving bribes to the men, and the men from receiving the same, and stating the case of the man who was discharged on the previous week. Mr. Lockett, in moving the confirmation of the proceed ings, said that they had recommended these bills to be circulated, in order, if possible, to prevent captains giving their men bribes, and they thought it would be a stimilus to their men from receiving them. The Chairman said lie was quite sure it would meet the approval of the board. Mr. Boult drew attention to a statement made by Mr. Cox, the assistant harbour master to the committee, to the effect that he had been summoned as a juryman, and on application, Judge Willes let him off, and intimated that it was desirable that a clause should be inserted in the act of parliament, exempting harbour masters. This he (Mr. Boult) thought would be very desirable, if it was not too late for the present bill. He was sure such an expression from the judge would strengthen the hands of the Law-clerk. The Chairman said, when the harbour master got off so easy, it was hardly worth while. Mr. Lockett said this was the first time in his recollection that the harbour master had got off. • ,Mr. Bold said it would be too late for this year, but they could get a clause inserted in the next bill for which they went to parliament. The matter was left in the hands of the Law-clerk. The proceedings were then confirmed. MASTER PORTERS' COMMITTEE The proceedings of this committee contained a recommen dationto appoint George Wilson as master porter. .e motion of IV. r. Arnolc the proceec [jugs were con- firmed. At the request of Mr. Lockett, a letter from Mr. Cox, the assistant harbour master, was read, in reference to his being summoned as a juryman. He stated the remarks of the judge on the occasion, who referred to a case of a ship on fire while the harbour master was serving as a juryman, and it was considered that had the harbour master been present, the ship might have been saved. Mr. Holme said, the mention of a ship on fire remem bered him of a subject which he thought deserved the It board. It was considered some time ago mine should be attached to that estate, and 'had the other day of a ship on fire in attention of that a floatin the instance they the river, ought t it serious - attention Co the subject having a floating engine. II( ;ht to t siderAior, Mr. Lockett said the matter had been maturely considered, and it was decided, in consequence of the enormous expense and difficulty, that they should not establish floating engines. They would, at least, require two of them. Mr. Holme thought expense should no t s t an d i n t h e way. Mr. Smith said it was proposed to lay pipes all rot.nd the docks instead. The accidents generally occurred in the river and not in the docks. A floating engine might be got for the river, but as for the docks, to carry that out thoroughly they would need one for every. dock. Mr. Boult said, lately there had been three large ships— the Dutch ship a few days ago. The American ship Constitu tion and the Isaac Wright ; all had taken fire in the river, and he did think there was great importance attached to the suggestion of Mr. Holme. That they sho u ld h ave a floating engine was really necessary. The'Chairman said the_ docks and quays committee would .ke it into further consideration. A letter was read from Mr. John Harrison, asking a reply to a former letter improvement of the Mersey estuary Mr. Lockett-said i ington bank. . The Chairman said there was some movement going on by which the Pilkington bank was being taken away very rapidly. . The letter was referred to the marine committee for con sideration. something relative to the Pill A memorial was read from the dock gatemen, calling the attention of the board to the difficulties they bad to contend with on account of the high rents of houses near the docks, compelling them to reside at considerable distances froth their respective stations, while they were obliged by the regulations Of the board to be present for muster-roll at times which caused them to loose many hour's rest, which they might otherwise have. Their prayer wa ; that the hoard would take into consideration the propriety of building houses at moderate rents contingent to the docks, which would tend to the gr•eater efficiency of the staff, as in any emergency such as fire or any other accident, all bands would be r ea d y at a moment's notice. If this 'were not practical or desirable, they prayed that the regulations in reference to the hours of muster roll, should be a little re laxed. • Mr. Lockett said he would move that the matter be re- THE NORTHERN TIMES, FRIDAY, MARCH 25 1859 ferred to the docks and quays committee. The former part might be carried out, he said, but the latter he did not know about, as it required some stringent regulation such as the one now in existence, to keep the men to their duty. XEr. Bold remarked that on a former occasion the regula tions had to be altered, in consequence of their strictness. They involved the appearance of the men six times a day. This was a great hardship on the men. It was a different matter with the police, who had their regular beats. He hoped the committee would see the propriety of taking the matter into consideration. This concluded the business. LIVERPOOL POLICE INTELLIGENCE—YESTERDAY. BEFORE MR. MANSFIELD. THE AFFAIR OF THE BOGOTA.—His Worship said, in reference to the unfortunate affair that took place on board the Bogota, so well known now to the public, he had received a letter from the Rev. Geo r ge L. Church, Chase water, Truro, Cornwall, on behalf of the widow and children of the poor man who lost his life, enquiring after his clothes, money, and whatever effects he had had. He (Mr. Mansfield) supposed these things would be forthcoming by the authorities of the vessel. The rev. gentleman also wished to ascertain if anything in the 'shape of compensa tion or pension could be procured for the widow and children of the poor man. That he (Mr. Mansfield) imagined was out of the question. The rev. gentleman stated that the poor woman and her children were in a state of great destitution, and as the fate of the poor man had excited a great deal of public sympathy' in this town, perhaps the charitably inclined, would be willing to do something for the poor woman, and her helpless children. He would be glad to receive and for ward to the Rev. Mr. Church any contributions entrusted to him for that purpose. As to the questions in the Rev. gentleman's letter, he would, of course, answer them himself. James Hamill, of Dublin-street, was charged for having illegally detained some clothes, belonging to two sailor boys, named Carter and Flanagan. Mr. Tyndall appeared to prosecute, and having called Witnesses to prove the case, it was established against the defendant, and he was fined £2 and £2 17s 6d costs. A ROWDY " COUNTESS " IN MINATURE.—A female, of commanding figure, and elegant appearance, dressed in the extreme of fashion, but by no means gaudy, was brought up by police-officer 118, on the following charge : —The pri soner was called by the police, Annie Johnston, alias " Mon tes the Second," and stated to reside in a " house," at the eorner of Pembroke and Dansie-street. The officer said, at half-past one o'clock he was in Lime-street, and hearing more than the or dinary confusion and vile noise in the street, he went forward to see what it was. On reaching the crowd, he saw the prisoner ;with a number of young men and women about her; she had a horse-whip (produced it) in her hand, with which she was " licking" all before her ; she thrashed away like any " flailer," and when he attempted to catch her she ran into the " hop." After some short stay there she came out again, and went on " walloping" all before her with the whip. He made a second " charge" at her, but she "decamped" into a public-house. He watched her till she came into the street again, and as there is luck in odd numbers, and as the third time has a charm about it, he gripped her whilst she was in the act of " flage•olating" several persons—men and women—in th e st ree t. The officer imitated the movements (with the whip) of " Montes " No. 2, and did so in a style that showed she was a good, " one, two, and three" cut, When the prisoner was asked what she had to say ? she turned her back indignantly towards the bench, but made no reply. Mr. Mansfield : Was she drunk ? She was sir. Mr. Mansfield : I fine her ss. and costs, or three days imprisonment. The " knightess" of the whip handed her muff" to a fellow in court, who "popped" it in the first pawn-shop he met, paid the fine and they left the court together in double quick march time. PUTTING OUT THE LIGHT.—Mrs. Anne Jones, a ,respectable-looking person, who keeps a tobacco shop in Scotland-road, charged her • husband Sederick Jones, with having assaulted her. It appeared that th e p r i soner was in the habit of beating his wife, whin he got drunk, which seemed to be his custom always in the after noon. She had him before the bench on previous occasions for assaulting her. She said he was a master joiner, but would not do any work, except drinking was working. The previous night he beat her, pulled down the gas, and nearly set the house on fire. The prisoner said he was very sorry for what he had done. His Worship ordered him to find two sureties in £25 each, or to be imprisoned for twelve months. OH SHOCKING !—A very pretty young woman, named Alice Perry, was brought up by detective officer Boyce on a charge of having stolen a coat, a pair of trousers, and other property, from the house of Mrs. Willia m s, 6, Birkett-street. Mr. Gluck defended. It appeared that some time since the prisoner lodged at the house of complainant, and that she left in consequence of some difference. Days after the things were missed, and because the prisoner was seen in the locality, she was suspected as the thief, and given in charge. Mr. Bluck cross-examined the prosecutrix, and elicited the fact that her husband was in the habit of taking out property to pledge, to go on the "spree." He then made a very humorous speech, and said what a shocking thing it was to charge the young lady with stealing such a nameless garment as an " inexpressibles," because she was seen in the street. He declared that his client would bring an action against Mrs. Williams for the outrage she had committed on his (pretty little) client. He urged that she ought at once to be discharged, and His Worship accord ingly discharged her. UNACCOUNTABLE.—A person of respectable appearance, named Thomas Hunter, described as a clerk, was charged with having assaulted Mr. C. Mundie, an ostrich feather dealer, living at 9, Mount Pleasant. The complainant said the previous night the prisoner entered his shop with his hands upraised in a fighting position, he asked him what he wanted, when, without any further provocation, the pri. soner struck him two or three times. The prisoner ex pressed great regret at what had happened. He was fined £2 and costs. THE BROKEN FIDDLE OF A POOR ITALIAN BOY.—A poor little Italian boy, named Dominico Apostali, about thirteen years of age, charged a fellow named James Cairns, with havingbroken his fiddle, value t en s hilli ngs . The boy did not speak English, but a youth who was with him, interpreted for him. The lad appeared to be in the utmost distress, as the fiddle was the only means he had to make out a scanty living. It appeared that the boy was playing his instrument in the streets, when the prisoner came up to him. The prisoner is a cripple, and carries a crutch, and it seemed that he raised his artificial support (the crutch), and, without any provocation, smashed the fiddle with it at one blow. In reply to the char g e, the prisoner said he was drunk, and f e ll against the lad. The police officer who had charge of the case, said, lie saw the prisoner deliberately raise his crutch, and break the boy's fiddle into pieces, without any provocation. Mr. Mans field said, the prisoner ought to rememb er th a t h e was himself a cripple, and should have compassion on the poor boy. He fined him 10s., the value of the lad's fiddle, or to be imprisoned for one month. Th e p oor It a li an boy eft the box crying bitterly, as lie has lost his entire means of getting bread. [ls this not a case for the benevolent ?] BEFORE MESSRS. CASTELLAINE AND CROSTHWAITE. CLAIM FOR PERSONAL INJURY.—Jane Jones, a servant, summoned Mr:William Nash, of Lime-street, for negligence. whereby she sustained personal injury. It appeared that the complainant was servant at defendant's, and that sbe was ordered to go out on a window, and throw water on the top of a green-house so as to clear it. She went but did not confine herself to the window, but went on the green-house itself, which broke, and one of her legs was much injured, and for this she brought the summons. It being clear that she was not ordered to go on the glass case ; the magistrates had no jurisdiction and dis missed the case, but expressed a hope that something might be done for her. Mr. Owens, who a? eared for the defendant, said he had no doubt that Mr. Nash would do what was right and honourable. [Mr. Castellaine gave the poor girl 10s. out of his private pocket.] Mr. Bluck appeared for a lady of elegant appearance, who gave the name of " Miss Anne Chaplain," who was charged by Miss Elenora Thompson, for threatening language, and also an assault. The fair ladies fell out about a dress, when the offence was committed. It appeared that complainant had borrowed a dress from defendant to attend a certain ball, and the whole affair arose out of that. The defendant was fined 10s, and she then issued a summons for the recovery of her dress. BRIGHT !

MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL LIVERPOOL, Thursday Evening There has been no abatement in the activity of the Liverpool Cotton Market, and with a large business done to-day, prices have been very 'firm. The sales amount to 10,000 bales, and include about , 2,000 taken for speculation and export. . The tone of the Liverpool Share Market has shown no important change to-day, and with only a moderate amount of business, the fluctuations in prices were immaterial.

The London Stock Market opened with a very firm feeling, and consequent upon the purchase of about £350,000 of Stock by the Broker who acts for the Court of Chancery, there was quite an excite ment among the dealers, and prices advanced about a quarter per cent., but subsequently there was a slight reaction, and prices receded a little. Consols at noon were quoted at 961 to 964, but closed at 961 to 961, at which they remained stationary at the final close. In the London Share market there was some activity in the early part of the day, and prices had a tendency to improve, but as the day advanced there was less buoyancy, and quo tations became less firm. The amount of business done was not large, and prices finally left off at the following quotations :-Amber gate, 61 ; Caledonian, 84, 85 ; Do.

Advices prom New York to the 12th inst. have been received by the arrival of the City of Baltimore at this port, but the commercial news possess no feature of striking importance. The Cotton Market at New York was firm, and the telegraph from New Orleans announces that the European advices by the Arabia had imparted greater firmness to the trade there. At Mobile a moderate business was going forward, and prices were steady. The Grain Markets were generally firm, and in New York there was a good business going forward, at full prices. There had been no change in the rate of exchange on London, but there was a moderate business doing. A meeting has been held to-day, at the London Tavern, for the establishment of a public company to realise the rights granted to the holders of land warrants by the Government of Ecuador, by means of a company, with limited liability, in 25,000 shares of £2 each, with a deposit of ss. per share. Of the amount of shares, 5,000 would be reserved for Ecuador. The prospectus was approved, and the meeting adjourned. Although the applications for Money at the Bank yesterday were moderate, the general market was tight, 2- 4 -, per cent. being the minimum rate for the best bills. To-day being the day previous to the last day of the quarter, heavy payments have to be made. The Silver Market was very active yesterday at the advanced quotation of 62 . ?,-d. per ounce standard. 0 wing to the prospect of procuring increased sup plies from the Continent, it is now stated that the aggregate remittances of Silver for Bombay by the Behar An the 27th instant will approach, perhaps exceed, 800,0001., including 400,0001. or 500,0001. on government account, A further sum of 50,0001. or 60,000/. in Silver arrived on Tuesday in the Thames from Boulogne. At the public sales of jute yesterday, a decline of 20s to 30s per ton was submitted to. At the meeting of shareholders in the Ottoman Bank, held yesterday, a dividend at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum, together with a bonus of 12s per share, was declared, as recommended in the director's report. Satisfaction at the results shown in the accounts, and confidence in the general management of the undertaking were expressed. It is stated that the questions in dispute between Peru and Ecuador are likely to be arranged by a reference to the arbitrator—Chili--in accordance with the treaty of 1830 between these two republics. The announcement of a special meeting of the London and North-Western Railway Company, to "consider and approve" no less' than twenty bills now pending in Parliament, has attracted consider- . able attention. A number of proprietors are endea vouring to organise an opposition to the proposed important extensions of the company's system. The Stock Markets to-day were dull, but prices were generally firm, English and Indian securities being an exception. To-day the general Discount Market was tight, 2-a per cent. being the minimum rate for the best bills, owing to the prospect of increased supply from the Conti nent. It is stated that the aggregate remittance of silver for Bombay, on the 27th, will perhaps exceed £BOO,OOO, including £400,000 or £500,000 on Government account. There were no bullion operations at the Bank of England to-day.--Daily Hews City Article, Wednesday Evening. The English Funds to-day have been inactive—dull prices from Paris, a slight increase in the demand for money, and a feeling of dissatisfaction at the uncertainties connected with the Indian finance, having contributed to prevent any manifestation of buoyancy. In the Stock Exchange to-day the rate of loan advanced from 2to 2i per cent., and at the Bank and in the Discount Market there was a full inquiry. The belief that the remittances of silver may continue on a scale sufficient to keep the Conti nental Exchanges in an unfavourable state; operates to stimulate the demand.—Times City Article, Wedneiday Evening. RAILWAY TRAFFIC RE'rtutNs.-The London and North- Western shews this week an increase of £3,081 ; the Great Northern, an increase of £1 ; the Great Western, an increase of £1,721; the London and South-Western, an increase of £895.

NORTHERN TIMES OFFICE, FRIDAY, 9 A.M DEPARTURE OF COUNT CAVOUR. The Times announces that Count Cavour left Turin, for Paris, last night (Thursday). Everything was Tranquil in Sardinia. THE MINISTRY AND THE REFORM BILL. The Times announces that Lord Derby will not attempt to hold office a day when the House has declared against him. The defeat of the Ministry is looked upon as certain, but if the debate does not terminate to-night, but continues in a fresh week, it may possibly be protracted to the end of that week. The Star says it is still uncertain whether the Govern ment will resign or dissolve, but considers it most important that the constituences should everywhere be on the alert. The Herald is surprised that experienced politicians can be deluded by the idea that a ministry, which came into office in a minority, would retire without an appeal to the constituenc es.

The Times says that by mere accident the trading community have discovered, in time to take steps for its defeat, that a private bill has been introduced by the Great Western Railway Company, in a covert form, to enable them at pleasure to raise their fares for passengers and goods to an extent ranging from 50 to 100 per cent. --4.---- COMMERCIAL The general impression as to the course of foreign politics was more hopeful to-day, and the upward tendency would probably have been more decided but for the extraordinary activity of the drain of silver, together with the uncertainty as to ministerial changes. The closing quotations of Consols were only about one-sixteenth per cent. better than those of yesterday. The Discount Market to-day was active and tight, being influenced by th e demand in connection with the cl ose o f the quarter, as well as by the silver movement, few or no bills were taken below 2f per cent. The bullion operations at the Bank to-day were unimportant. It is somewhat remarkable that the silver drain has, as yet, caused such limited withdrawals of gold from this establishment. At Hamburg the rate of discount which a few days ago was one and a-half per cent., has risen suddenly to three per cent., owing solely to the demand for silver in that market on London account.— Daily News City Article, Thursday Evening. Although some very favourable influences have -been exerted upon the Stock Market to-day, there has been little buoyancy in prices. The rise produced by the purchase of £300,000 for the Court of Chancery, though strengthened by the announcement of Austria assenting to a Congress, was not maintained. The silver 'Movement, and an in creased demand for money, tended to this flatness. The quotation of bar silver has again advanced, and is now 62: 3 1 -d'per oz. The Bank of Holland have notified to-day a rise of per cent. in their price for silver.—Times City Article Thursday Evening.
