brisker than for some time pest, but the hest bills
were still taken at 2k to n per cent. At the Bank
of England there was • moderate amount of
business.
The Italian Loan, which has been for some time
much depressed, owing to the large amount held on
speculation at Paris, has now attracted a number
of investments, encouraged by the easier appearance
of the French money market, and by the buoyancy
of the Rennie.
About 5,0001. in gold was bought from the Bank
yesterday for exportation.
The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon expe-
rienced no alteration of importance. The Paris

The prospectus of the Turin and SavonalW-
way Company was issued yesterday. This is
an undertaking of considerable magnitude and im-
portance. Its introduction has probably been
postponed through the depression of the Italian
Loan : now that this stock has experienced au im-
t recovery, there is no longer any occasion
rtlielay. The English board is composed of ten
gentlemen, while in the list of the council of ad-
ministration at Turin are several names of Euro-
pean celebrity. The produce of a rich agricultural
district finds an outlet through the port of Savona,
and it is pointed out that the population adjacent
to the line greatly exceeds that of the seven south-
ern depertmeuts traversed by the flourishing line
from Paris to the Mediterranean. Contractors
have undertaken to complete and stock the line,
as well as to pay six per cent. interest upon the
capital during construction, for a sum of
2,408,0001., being at the rate of 20,0001. per mile ;
but through the liberal subventions sranted by
the government, the cost to the shareholders will
be reduced to 16,0001. per mile. The distance from
Turiu to Savona is 90 miles, and the length of the
branch line to Acqui is 30 more. It is mentioned
that one half of the share capital, namely, 20,000
shares of 201, each, has been taken in Italy.
The Caledonian Railway traffic return shows this
week a decrease of 7011.

lian Trust Company, • dividend at the rate of 8 per

The following is the report of the directors of
the Bank of Egypt, to be submitted at the annual
meeting on the mb of February :
The directors of the Bank of Egypt have the pleasure to
submit so the shareholders the annexed statement of
accounts for the half year ending the 31st of December last,
by which it will be men that the net profits, including a
balance of 3,729& 10s. 4d. brought forward from the previoas
half-year, month to 13,5541. 14s. 4d.; they are, therefor*.
enabled to recommend the usual dividend, at the rate of 7
per cent, par annum, for the half-year, free of income tax,
leaving 4,8041. 14e. 4d. to be carried forward to the next
sceount. The debt due from the estate of the late Prince
El Mani Paths, which at one time caused so much uneasi-
nese, was, on the 31st of December last. reduced to 25,0001.
including interest. This amount has since been still further
reduced, and the security for the balance is undoubted. As
revesialsoktetolod decilencat the difrecorttchrseurengzti that their
*ad
which the bilk was compelled to take for some of securities,
maces improperly made by the late managers, have sot, as
yet, been equally successful. To realise securities of this
clam in Egypt without undue sacrifice, opportunities must
be waited for. The director, have the satisfaction to add,
that the current expenses in Egypt have been somewhat
farther reduced during the lest six months.
We are repeated to state that the subscription
list of the India Freehold Land Colonisation,
Trust, and Agency Association (Limited)" will be
