THIS DAY.
Two o'Ctoci.

Very little business has been done in the English
stock market to-day, and prices role at a further
reduction of 1. In the other departments of the
house the tendency is alto in favour of a
reduction, the influences that were in operation yes-
terday still exercising an effect on the markets gene-
rally. Consols are quoted 991 to for motley and
994 for the account, for which, however, sales have
also been made as low as 991. The Three per
Cent. Reduced mark 981 to .; ; Now Three-and-a-
Quarter per Cents., 1001 to ; India Stock, 266;
Bank Stook, 2204.
The bargains in the foreign. market have been
unusually few, and prices are in several instances
quoted lower. Peruvian stocks show a decidedly
downward tendency, and the Deferred bonds have
been sold at 634. Granada, Sardidian, and Spanish
are all worse, and Venezuelan have not maintained
the rise of yesterday. Sardinian mark 96 to ;
Spanish Old Threes, 47 to 4; ditto New Deferred, 21
to 1; Venezuelan Actives, 474 to 49 ; Mexican, 34 to
; ditto Three per Cents., 274 to ; Grenada Deferred,
91 to 101.

NEWMARKET COMPANY.—Testerday a special meet-
ing of this company was held at the London Tavern. Mr.
Conunitsioner Farm took the chair, and said that the ob-
ject of the meeting was to cousider the propriety Of the
measure now before parliament, and for the carrying out
of which a certain majority must sanction this bill before
it could per the House of Lords. The bill had been read a
first time in the House of Lords, and its object was to sub-
stitute a better and cheaper line between Newmarket and
Berry.—Sir John Shelley, Bart., objected to being made a
party to making the new lane for the benefit of the ori-
ginal shareholders, and should protest against the resolu-
tion now proposed for adoption.—The Chairman then put
the resolution for the approval of the bill now before par-
liament.—Mr. Anderson seconded toe motion. On a show
of hands, there appeared 18 for the motion, and 24 against
it.—The Chairman called for a poll.—Sir W. Carden, Mr.
Tyrrell, and others, objected to the poll.—The Chairman
aud that question must he settled by parliament. They
had only to pursue the legal course. After some delay, the
result of the poll was as follows :—Prosies' for, 1,424
ryrries against, 0; votes present, 693 for; 74 against, cub-
ect to a protest of 370 votes on the part of Mr. George
ell. There was more than four. fifths in favour of the
resolution. The meeting then adjourned.
LIFE AND DEATH IN LONDON.—Few know that
in every seven minutes of tho day a child is born in London,
and that in every nine minutes one of its inhabitants dies!
The population of London is roundly, 2,362,000. If the
averages of the past filly years continue, in thirty-one years
from this time as many persons as now compose its popula-
tion will have died in it, and yet in about thirty-nine years
from this time, if the present rate of progress continue, the
metropolis will contain twice as many persons as it does
now. The whole population of Liverpool in 1851 num-
bered 235,000; while the increase of inhabitants in the
metropolis between 1841 and 1811 was 113,000. It is truly
marvellous! Where it will stop, and how food and shelter
ure provided for these MIMS, ate subjects fur speculation.
