In the course of the conversation which followed, it
was explained that Messrs. Lyalls had not deemed it
prudent to make an estimate of what might be forth-
coming from Calcutta beyond the actual amount of
remittances already received, and what would come
to hand by the three following direct mails, viz.,
60,0004 as it was impossible to form anything like a
correct opinion of what might be realised from this
source, although it was hoped that Messrs. Lyall,
Matheson, and Co. would be able to meet all their en-
gagements by the sacrifice of the partner's capital in
that house, which amounted at last stock taking to
about 110.000/.
It will be seen from the accounts and the explana-
tion that much of the successful winding up of this
unfortunate insolvency must necessarily be contingent
upon the satisfactory liquidation of the Calcutta house.
The two most readily available and solid assets consist
in the good debts for 40,0001., and the private property
of the partners for 45,0001.
Messrs. Crowder and Maynard arc the solicitors to
this estate, and Messrs. Quilter, Ball, sad Co., the
accountants.

iliStE OF FILENCIC BAxs NOTEL—The French chambers,
in their last session empowered the Bank of France to issue
a new series of bask notes of 200 francs each. Everybody
was surprised that this issue had not yet been effected, since
it would have been very advantageous to our market in a
moment of such monetarist scarcity. Now it is said that the
bank will issue 23 millions of francs of these new notes, in
the first days of November, and it will subscribe at the
bankers' who will bid for the French loan, for the same sum
of 25 millions. As the first instalment is but 12,300,000
francs, the bank will have hut 1,250,000 franca to pay nut of
its new bank notes, and &lithe rest of the 2.5 millions will be
issued to the public. The bank may easily make such an
issue of 2-5 millions of trams in bank notes, since, on theist of
Nov., the greatest part of the 14 millions of francs, which
form the present balance of the sums due by Russia (or the last
purcb me of French stock, will be !mid into the hands of the bank.
Then the friends of M. Dumon say, that besides the 25 mil-
lions which would be taken in the loan by the bank, the
Caine des Delhi& et Consignations will also subscribe for a
s;milar sum, so that the loan to be subscribed by private
bankers would be only 200 millions. The first effect of the
loan advertisement has been an improvement of 6.5 c. on the
Three per Cents. among the speculators of the Coulisse, who
had nut on Sunday last at the passage of the Opera, and the
Three per Cents. rose immediately from 73f. sc. to 75f. 73c.
But this rise was not of long duration, as on the neat morn-
ing the London express brought the price of the English
Consols at 833, with gloomy apprehensions of a further de-
cline. However, our funds have been struggling against
the general dislike of investing at this momem in the French
stack, and the Three per Cents. had no great variation at
yesterday'e bourse, when they ranged from 75f.130e. to 73f. 40e.
