*Some anxiety has been caused by the announcement
received this morning from Paris of a banking failure
in that capital of some importance, and whose busi-
ness extended to a large section of the United King-
dom. Further accouats are looked for with interest.
'rho Board of Trade returns for the month and
nine months ending the 10th Oct., issued this morn-
ing, are again of a highly satisfactory character, as
although the exports of the month present a very
slight decrease, as compared with same month
in the two pro ions years, the figures for the nine
months show a great increase of movement, which
extends to all the staple articles, the falling off being
limited to a few of the miscellaneous branches
more especially liable to fluctuation. The months'
export figures are : 1851. 6,346,9941. ; 1850,
6,434,8341.; 1849, 5,627,0621. And for the nine
months : 1851, :)3,504,9781.; 1850, 50,286,402/. ;
18/9, 44,830,411/. In the monthly statement
of imports entered for cor.sumption, there is a con-
siderable increase in tea, a slight increase in sugar,
coffee, and tobacco, and the usual decrease in spirits
and wine. Corn and flour has also largely aug-
mented.

SATURDAT EVENING.

The discount market remain; as before. Money
is abundant and at low rates, here and in all the
great markets, except New York, where the rates
are habitually higher. Discounts here may be
rated at 21 per cent., with 2 per cent. for money on
call. Although a slight decline has taken place in
the exchange at Paris on London, the bullion in the
Bank of France continues to decrease and that in
the Bank of England to increase.

Thursday, the 6th of November, show the follow.

An analysis of the railway traffic returns of the
United Kingdom for the last week, published by
Herapath's Journal, shows the total receipts on
6,460 milts to be 270,9721., or equal to 42/. per
mile per week. In the corresponding week of last
year the amount was 251,368/. on 6,191 miles, or
401. 10s. per mile per week. There is thus an increase
in the gross. receipts of 19,6041., or 7.79 per cent.,
an increase in the mileage of 269 miles, or 4.34 per
cent., and an increase of 11. 10s. in the amount re-
ceived per mile per week. The Railway Times esti-
mates the total receipts since the Ist of July, at
5,778,6091., which, on 6,258 miles, gives an average
of 9231. 7s. 101 d. per mile, and as in the corres-
ponding week of last year the amount was 4,904,8771.
on 5,952 miles, or 8241. ls. 61d. per mile, the diffe-
rence is shown to be in favour of the present year to
the extent of 99!. FM 51d. per mile.
