THE FALL OF A HOUSE AT ISLINGTON.

LATEST PARTICULARS.-(THIS DAY.)

Up to a late hour public feeling appears to ran
very strongly against the builder, it being 'Diced that he had
run up the building without Irking paper security spinet
accident. A police-oonstable on duty this morning, who
had been a working builder, and who had watched the daily
progress of the building, his beat being in Upperotreet,
said, to use his own expression, "be bad never seen a build-
ing chucked together is snob a way." He also stated that
the building had not been properly " tied." Mr. Reeves,
the district surveyor, is, however, barfly engaged in making
a survey of the building and materials, and the truth sill
come out at the inquest.

Workmen have been occupied all night and during this
morning in clearing away the debris, and a hoarding bas
been placed round the mina to keep away the idle and in.
(lenitive.
On visiting the hospital this morning Yr. VINING was
found fie attendance on the sufferers. They had all, with
the exception of Casaidy, suffering from • compound
(mime of the arm. and Smith, suffering from
fractured ribs, pared • favourable night. In
the came of Cuddy and Smith, the sturgeon
had little hove of their recovery. The groans of the poor
fellows as they lay in bed, writhing in army, were heart-
rending. Their wives, by the kindness of the hospital
authorities, were allowed to be in attendance on them, and
the anguish and suffering of the poor women were very pain-
ful to witness. It has been decided that Otteddy's arm sball
be amputated this morning, waling some favourable
symptoms appear.

MONEY VICET.-{THIS DAY.)

Two o'Ocots.

In the Stock Exchange to-day the principal busi-
ness has consisted of preparations for Monday's
settlement in shares and foreign stocks, and as
these have proceeded quietly and satisfactorily and
without requiring more than moderate rates of
" continuation" to be paid by speculative holders,
prices generally have been well supported, at yes-
terday's quotations. There is, however, an entire
absence of animation. Consols are quoted for
money a fraction lower than yesterday.
At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's
telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes were quoted
67fr., being Sc. lower than yesterday.
Consols are now quoted 921 to 1, cum div., for
money, and 911 to 1, ex div., for the account
(Dec. 3). The official business report is as
follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money,
921, 1,1, ; ditto for account, 911 ; Three per
Cents. Reduced, 901, ; New Three par Cents,
901,1 r ; Bank Stock, 238, 237 ; India Stook, 222 ;
ditto Five per Cent Stock, 1061, 109 ; ditto Four
per Cent Debentures, 1864 or 1866, 991; Five
per Cent. "enlaced" rupee paper, 1041 ; and
Exchequer Bills, 641., 2s. dim.
In the foreign stock market attention has been
monopolised with the settlement, and prices in
nearly every instance are quoted much the same as .
yesterday afternoon. Greek Bonds are about per
cent lower. There is a fair demand for Egyptian
and Italian stocks. Some of the present quota-
tions are annexed :—Turkish 1864 Loan, 90 to 1 ;
ditto, 1868, 701 to 1 ; ditto 1862, 70 to 1 ; the
Coasolidois, 461 to 471 ; Mexican, 371 to 1 ;
Greek, 301 to 1 ; and Spanish Passive, 341 to 1.
Transactions arc recorded as follows :—Brazilian,
1863, 87/ ; Egyptian, 991, 99, 1; Greek, 301 ;
Italian, 701,1, 71 ; Mexican, 371, 1; Peruvian,
1882, 881; Portuguese, 1886, kc., 481 ; ditto
1863, 481; ditto scrip, 1 prem.; Bastian, 1880, 88 ;
Spanish New Deferred, ; ditto Native, 341;
ditto Certificates, 131, 1; Turkish, 1864,- 901;
ditto, 1868, 701 ; ditto, 1882, 701, 1, 70, 1.
International Financial shares an quoted 4;
to 1 prem. ; General Credit, 21 to prem. ;
London Financial, 81 to 9 prem. ; Mercantile Credit,
31 to 4 prem.; Hudson's Bay, 21 to 11 dim.; Egyp-
tian. Trading, 11 to 21 prem. ; Discount Corporation,
71 to 8 prem. ; Merchant Banking, to 7 prem. ;
Australian Land and Mortgage, to 1 prem. ;
Mortgage Bank of India, 21 to 3 prem. ;
National Steam, 41 to 81 pram ; Zest London
Bank, 21 to 3 prem. ; Muntz's Metal, Ito 1
prem. ; West India and Pacific Steam, 21 to 3
prem.; English and Swedish Bank, 21 to 31 prem.;
and Anglo-Austrian Bank, toll prem.
Especial atealinees continues to be manifested by
most of the new projects lately introduced, the
premiums on which are well maintained. It is
evident that the holders are by no means anxious
to seize the large profits already offered to them in
the market In fact, the public seem to have
acquired a strong liking for thaw new premium-
bearing securities—such, for instance, as the
shares of the financial companies, the Indian Land
Mortgage Bank, Ac..—and any reduction in prices
brings forward buyers rather than sellers. There
is thus reason to believe that a large field is still
presented to those enterprising spirits who
find occupation and profit in the organise,-
tion of new undertakings. The firearms with
which the premiums have been upheld in face of the
recant pressure in the money market and of the
rise in the Bank rate from 4 to 6 per cent., seems
to have given a fresh stimulus to the public taste
in this direction. As long as a holder of Discount
Corporation, or London Financial, or Land Bank
of India shares, sees his property quoted (as the
case may be) at 81., or 91., or even 32. per share
premium, he scarcely cares to inquire what the
value of money is, nor will an advance of 2 or 3
per cent. in the Bank rate deter him from embark-
ing in fresh projects holding out the promise of
equally remunerativelreaults. In a word, the public
estimation of the new companies which are brought
forward from day to day is regulated much more by
a consideration of the market premiums than of the
Bank rate of discount ; and it is very natural that
this should be so.

It appears that as soon as our money market is
in a condition to bear them, at least three new
foreign loans—viz., the Austrian, the Swedish, and
the Venezuelan—will be brought forward.

A further parcel of 128,000 sovereigns was taken
from the Bank yesterday, chiefly for transmission

The City of Washington has brought 23,0001. in
specie from New York.

a large increase, and those of silver a decrease,
compared with the amounts sent by tate ocirresponding
packet on the 12th inst.

ments have been concluded by which the old-
