MONEY MARKET.

SATI7BRAT
The stock markets to-day were again depressed,
and although there was a partial rally in the afternoon,
it appears to be rather owing to the bears buying
back wiat they had sold in the merle of the week,
than to my increase of confidence, the appearance of
the markets at the close of business being far from
satisfactory. Money is decidedly tighter in Lom-
bard-street, apparently in anticipation of a rising
market, and business cannot be done below the Bank's
minimum of 21 per cent. Unless for very short
dated ant unexceptionable paper, which may still be
negotiated with freedom, 21 to 21 per cent. is the
current r►te, with a disposition on the part of dis-
counters to exercise a more severe scrutiny of names,
whilst large amounts are unwillingly accepted. Under
these circumstances, it is thought the probability of
the Bank taking another repressive step is rather in-
creased. As a further proof of the increased tight-
ness of tie money market, it may be mentioned that
the Loneon and North-Western Railway Company
Lour been unable to renew a considerable portion of
its debentures now falling due at 31 per cent., and
that some rather large sums have been paid off in
this way by the company. Money has also been
made tighter by the necessity for paving off the ad-
vances made by the Bank of England during the
shutting, ind some influence has likewise been exer-
cised by tie deposit of 10 per cent. on the capital of
the new railways for which bills are to be brought
forward this session, and the number of which is
considerably larger than last year. This deposit
has to be made at the office of the Accountant-
' General, aad although it will eventually be returned,

ITALY.

The Sardinian Chamber of Deputies voted the
estimates of the navy on the 10th. The discussion
turned principally on the proposition of a member
that the cruises should not be confined, as hitherto,

to the

and Adriatic, but extend to

more distant seas. The Minister of War opposed the
proposition.
If a maritime war (he said) broke out, our navy would
be of no avail out of tne Mediterranean or Adriatic. It is
consequently important to study the shores of those seas,
and to ensure our seamen against the winds and swells
which there prevail. The advice to send our Sect out of
the Mediterranean is not prudent, for if a war exploded,
and such a contingency is not improbable, how should we
' defend ourselves in the absence of our ships of war, which
would require three or four months to return? As to
the protection to be granted our commerce and country-
men, the ministry agree with the committee, and a ship
of the state sailed yesterday for the Gulf of Mexico
and the Rio de la Plata, for that purpose. It, however,
reproves distant expeditions, as it would be necessary to
confide them to the most distinguished officers, in order to
derive the gre►test possible benefit from them, and it might
happen in the event of a war, which, I repeat, is not lin
probable, that several of our officers should be absent three
or four years.
The motion was afterwards put from the chair
and rejected, and the Chamber voted the estimates.

In its sitting of the 11th the Chamber of Deputies,
at Turin, commenced the discussion on a bill pre-
sented by government for the alienation of two
millions of rente. MM. Casaretto and Sarum opposed
it on the ground of economy. Count Cavour, Minister
of Finance, defended the measure, declaring that the
financial reforms he contemplated could not be in-
troduced until an equilibrium should have been estab-
lished between the expenditure and the receipts of
the state. The discussion was adjourned till the
following day.

Posnarocye, JAN. 16.—The after-part of the
Marlborough, 120, having been severed from the remainder
of the ship, and a cradle built upon each aide, was launched
yett.rday a distance of 23 feet, in order that the vessel may
be lengthened for a screw propeller. The operation of
nosing this immense etrueture of woodwork was effected
la the most satisfactory manner, aad without the slightest
incident Rear Almiral Fussiness, Admiral 'Buperin-
teadent, and other officials, were present. The Marlborough,

MINES.

SATCHDAT EVINING.
The improvement noticed of late in the English
mining market is fully maintained, and the tendency
is still upward. Share.; of almost every mine pro-
ducing ore are in brisk demand, at advancing rates,
and upon the whole the great British mining interest
has seldom been in a more satisfactory position. For
this prosperous state of thing" we are chiefly in-
debted to the marked and continued advance in the
prices of nearly all descriptions of metals.
The prices at which actual sales have been con-
duit' are thus reported by the mast respectable
Anion sad brokers, but due allowance must be made
for the wide margin frequently existing in this
variable market as between buyer and seller :

The gold mining shares opened with a flat appear-
ance to-day, but as business progressed the general
feeling of the Stock Exchange was rather firmer, and
it became evident that, owing to the bear specula-
tions that have been carried on in some of these secu-
rities, the dealers were short of stock, and prices con-
sequently rallied.
In other foreign mines there was no essential
change.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals did not appear on the 10th,
in consequence of the preceding day having been
Sunda; but by a letter of that date we learn that
M. Aristizabal, Minister of Finance, had offered his
resignation, and that it was considered certain he
could be replaced by M. Llorentc, Minister of the
Interior, M. Benavides succeeding that gentleman.
The resignation of M. Aristizabal, says the letter, is
owing to his not approving of the continued exclu-
sion of General Narvaez from Spain, which his col-
leagues insist on. The Queen Christina had left for
Tarancon to pass three or four days. The Marchio-
ness de Loule, infanta of Portugal, and aunt to the
Queen Donna Maria, had arrived in Madrid from
Paris, and after two or three days stay was to pro-
ceed to Lisbon.

THE WAR WITH BURMAH.

TRIESTE, THURSDAY, JAN. 27.
We have received the following despatch from
Trieste in anticipation of the news by Overland Mail
from India:

The steamer (" Pyroscaphe"—fire-boat) Germania
arrived here this morning, at 1 o'clock, with important
intelligencefrom India. Gen. Godwin had imprudently
established an advanced post, consisting of only 400
men, at Pegu, 60 miles above Rangoon, and within
easy distance of the main body of the Burmese, which
was at Spoy Gyre. The Burmese commander at
Spoy Gyre immediately marched against this post,
cut off its communication with Rangoon, captured a
supply of munitions on its way to Pegu, and, having
invested the place, harassed the small garrison by
daily and nightly attacks. A small naval force,with
150 marines and 300 European soldiers, and a war
steamer, was sent from Rangoon, and endeavoured
to force a paange and relieve Pegu, but was re-
pulsed with loss. Upon this, two columns, composed
of 2,400 men, were sent by General Godwin against
the Burmese, whom they encountered, and having
signally defeated them arrived at Pcgu.

SPAIN.

A telegraphic despatch dated Madrid, January 22,
announces that a negotiation for obtaining from
foreign capitalists advances on the national revenues
was terminated the day before. The advance was
for fifty-seven millions. The Three per Cents. were
quoted at 40. The public funds had been subject to
considerable fermentation on the 20th and 21st.
A Madrid letter of the 21st states that in conse-
quence of the two late ministerial circulars the Mode-
redo Electoral Committee is on the eve of dissolving
itself voluntarily; it will only reserve to itself the
power of bringing before the competent authorities such
agents of the government as may be guilty of ex-
ceases or violence at the approaching elections. Be-
fore separating the committee intends, it is said, to
publish and distribute to the electors of ,Madrid and
of the provinces a sort of manifesto, in which it will
formally make known its intentions. The electors of
the Moclerado party, in the district of the Prado,
have chosen the Viscount de Almeria as their
candidate.

RUSSIA.

The correspondent of the Augsburg Gazette writes

government is fitting out an expedition for Japan.
It is composed of the Pallas frigate, a screw steamer,
and a transport, and is commanded by Admiral Pon-

TUVRSDAY

The market for English mining stocks is decidedly
strong, with a very large business doing. The in-
quiries for South Bassett, Wheal Buller, Wheal Ed-
ward, Alfred Console, St. Day United, Pengethley,
and Vale of Towey, are active. Wheal Buller shares,
which were done yesterday at 1,0851.. have been
dealt in to-day at 1,1251., being a rise of 401. The
amount paid on these shares is only 51. each, so that
this undertaking affords a striking illustration of the
immense profits that aro frequently to be met with
in mining rsuits. The prices ruling to-day are as
follows:—Wheal Buller, 1,125; Devon Great Con-
sols, 420; United Mines, 380; West Caradon, 290,

THURSDAY EVINISO.
The railway market was rather dull to-day, and
where there was any change in prices it was in an
unfavourable sense, except for East Lancashire',
which improved upon the announcement of a 3 per
cent. dividend. The change in price, however, was
immaterial in the majority of cases. Thu market
closed rather fist.

French lines maintained yesterday's improvement,
and closed steady. Sambre and Metwo were also
higher.

THIS DAY—Two o'CLoor.

The rail;;;.maiket is rather firmer to-day, a
slight advance being perceptible in some of the heavy
stocks, including Caledonian, Great Northern, South
,Western, and Leeds. East Lancashire hare again
improved. Shrewsbury and Ilirminghams, however,
are lower.
French shares are rather better. Royal Swedish

DWELLINGS FOR TILE WORKING CLASSES, SOHO
CHANBERS.—In all undertakings, whatever their object
may be, the best guarantee of their success is their certainty
of paying. It is not a wise philanthropy which expends
itself on unprofitable efforts. While
.the improvement of
the dwellings of the working daises is quite worthy of all
the zeal and benevolence which happily are now being
brought to bear upon the subject, still there must at the
same time be some substantial encouragement for the in-
vestment of capital. The question, " Well it pay ?" will
always occur to the practical mind. We must keep a steady
eye to the return., and adapt the supply, as far as possible,
Ito the demand likely to arise. It might be supposed, then,
that the small bedrooms, with the incidental conveniences
to be had at the Soho Chambers, were on the whole all that
could be reasonably expected for the rent charged, 3s. ftd.
a week. But if such a supposition were correct it must be
inferred that either this rent is too high for those who
would otherwise go there, or else working men are not
disposed to be satisfied with such meagre and dingy dwea-
ings; and I think they ought not to be satisfied. It can-
lot be said that nothing better can be bad on such low
terms, for the house built for single men in Ueorge•street,
Bloomsbury, is at least quite as good, if not superior; and
yet the rent for the saute accommodation and privileges is
only 2e. 4d. a week. Certainly, whether we consider com-
fort or morals, the Soho beds, with their flimsy partitions,
20 to 1 agst Mistletoe are a great improvement on the old abominable system of
DERBY. huddling men together in the same room, and several in a

were fruit broker', and he owed them 1121. Ile. id. fur the
purchase of fruit at their sales by auction. They brought
an action and he appeared to it by a person he met in
Theme.-striset, and to whom he was neummended es being
in the law. The person he met made an affidavit, to which
he (the insolvent) was sworn. He now admitted that the
affidavit contained several false statements.
Mr. Cooke observed that the party alluded to was a
pretty fel ow to make affidavits.
The insolvent denied that gambling was a canoe of his
insolvency. He had betted and might have lost 51.
Mr. James Adam., of the firm of Muria. Adams, stated
that the y had sales by auction, sad the insolvent attended
them. He got goods he purchased at the sales from the
docks. No authority was given that he should have credit
to the extent he led obtained.

in London, and that he was not insolvent. These state.
to. eta the insolvent in his evidence admitted were false ; an
affidavit by Mr. Adams was read and the judge refused to
disturb the cease, and judgment was signed.
Mr. Coolie contended that the debt had been improperly
contracted, and that there had been a vexatious defence.
The accounts were very unsatisfactory and not to be
credited.
Mr. Dowse submitted that there was no vexatious de-
trace, as there was no plea, and had been nodelay.
Mr. Commissioner Murphy was of opinion that the two
poi nts—contracting a debt improperly and a vexatious de-
fence—had been made out. It was, however, his intention
to deal with the case under the discretionary clause. Look-
ing at the accounts now rendered, the mode in which its

committed, he thought he should be wanting in his duty

THIS DAY.—Two o'CLocx.
The railway market opened with great excite-

very unsettled and rather more gloomy than
during the greater part of the morning.
Generally the fall seems to average about
2 per cent. from the closing rates of yes-

SOUTHWARK.

Mr. Alfred Bbewortb, a surgeon, residing in Triniq-
street, sourly opposite thepolice court, attended before Mr.
Combe to complain of anintolerable nuisance for some time
existing in the vicinity of his house, and which had caused
malaria and other di,wases of a fatal nature to spread in that
closely inhabited locality.
Mr. Ebsworth stated that for a long time an India rubber
waterproofing establishment had existed is some back pre-
mier en the sweellses side of Trinity-street, and the stench
hed hese se Emden@ its the inhabitants that many of them
bed ben mind with malaria, and other complaints, which

Kr. Ibeworth said there was not. The place was in the
parish of Bt. Mary Newington, end he had been to tb
guardians and complained, but they told him they were
unable to do any thing to abate the nuisance, although
cholera was raging in the neighbourhood. They had no
local board of health, and unless the nuisance was imme-
diately stopped he could not say what might be the fatal
results._

Mr. Combs said he was surprised that the party had not
kept his premise. He told him that the nuisance should
not be continued atter Saturday. He was astonished to
bear that such was the case when it was well known that
cholera saisted so near. He directed Murray, the warrant
°facer, to go immediately to the place and ascertain why the
nuisance was not abated.

Murray returned is a few minutes and informed his wor-
ship that the proprietor of the premises refused to admit
him. However there was a great stench, but not so bad
mon Saturday, when he was near the spot. There was a
butcher's shop next door, and so filthy was the small from
the factory that his loss was extensive. •

LONDONDERRY A,VD ENNISKILLEN
RAILWAY.

The half-yearly general meeting of this company
was held yesterda, at the offices, Coleman-street-buildings,
City, Mr. G. 11. ITRRIL in the chair.
The report presented stated that an additional section of
the railway, from Omagh to Fintona, had been opened in
June last, making 41 miles in traffic operation ; and, with
a due regard to public safety and trade accommodation, the
directors had resolved on making the middle ten miles—
viz., from Newtown Stewart to Omagh—a double line.
The works on the remaining 15 miles to be opened were
proceeding rapidly. The greatest advantages were antici-
pated from the construction of the Sligo line, the bill of the
Londonderry, Enniskillen, and Sligo Railway Company
having passed into law. The directors looked with confi-
dence to the results which would follow Item the mining
Operations now being carried on in the rich mineral fields
Of the county of Leitrim. The report concluded as follows:
"The result of the half-year's working is shown by
the accounts. The balance, 3,954!. 12s. 6d., at credit of
profit and loss, is sufficient with a small addition from the
reserve, to pay the usual 51. per cent. per annum, on the
preference shares, and be. each upon the 251. shares,
which dividend your directors recommend. Raving regard
Is the profit obtained from the re-lone of shares, and to the
increased traffic since the opening to Fintona, your directors
have been urged by some of the proprietors to give a larger
dividend on the 251. shares; but although they believe that
the present weekly traffic receipts will not only be equalled,
but increased, they deem it more prudent to keep in hand
• sum sufficient to enable them, under any circumstances,
at least to maintain the rate of dividend now recommended.
Linking at what has already been accomplished with a
Nos only partially open, and its resources consequently but
imperfectly developed—knowing thoroughly the trade and
capabilities of the localities from which your traffic must be
drawn—considering the advantages certain to accrue from

the operations of other parties u above enumet...—
taking into account the improved and improving condition
of all classes in the North-West of Ireland—your directors
have the utmost confidence that when completed to Ennis-
killen, the working of your railway will fully justify the
expectations formed of it, and yield to the proprietors a
satisfactory return upon their outlay."
This report, with the accounts, were confirmed and adopted
without discussion.

Formal resolutions, declaring dividends recommended,
and re-electing retiring directors were then passed, and the
business of the meeting was concluded.
