MONEY MARKET.

WIDNZSD•7 Eviwnca.

By the private advice, receivedDy the India Mail
to-day, we have intelligence of the Calcutta markrts
ten days later than were previously to hand. The
market for cotton goods and yarns was active, and
sales to a considerable extent had been made at a
slight decline in prices. The decline in grey shirt-
logs is stated to be 3 to 5 annul per piece, and bleached
only a shade lower. The anticipation of large supplies
bad produced this effect on the market ; and when it
is borne in mind that the shipments to Calcutta this
year amount to about 13 millions of yards of cotton
goods against about 7 millions in the corresponding
period of last year, this fall is not to be wondered at ;
even though a considerable improvement in mercan-
tile affairs in Calcutta is now experienced, and hopes
of an extended commerce are entertained from the
termination of hostilities and the pacification pro-
duced in the Panjaub. CAton yarn was rather lower
in low numbers, bat in others not much change,
except 70's and 80's, which were rather higher.
Metals were dull.

The Bombay advice. report an active market on
the 2nd of April for cotton goods generally. Yarn
was in good demand at rather better prices. Metals
being moderate in stock found a steady market. Ex-
change was le. 100. for good commercial paper, and
less for Bank Bills.
The report of the direetors of the North Western
Bank of India, presented to the shareholders at a
meeting, held at Meerut, on the 12th February last,
exhibits a very satisfactory statement of the affairs of
that institution.

The business for the half-year which terminated on
the 31st Dec. last exhibited a net gain of company'.
rupee. 1,82,845 12 annex, which admitted of a divi.
dend upon the capital stock of the Bank at the rate
ofB per cent. per annum ; leaving a sum of company's
rupees 22,845 12 annul, applicable to the reserve
fund, thus making the amount of the latter company's
rupees 219,143 2 anus and 9 pie. This dividend was
accordingly declared, and a recommendation of the
direcrors adopted, providing for the payment of the
dividend to shareholders in England by bills at six
m nthe eight, at the exchange of Is. Ild. per rupee;
or an alternative allowed them to qualify for the re-
ceipt of dividends in England at a fixed rate of ex-
change of two shillings per rupee, by payment of a
b: of 5 rupees per cent, or 25 rupees per share, on
the par value of the stock; of which several London
shareholders have already availed themselves, which
has produced a reserve fund to credit of profit and
lops of rupees 10,618.
Mr. Campbell, the managing director in Calcutta,
was appointed the future agent of the bank in Lon-
don, in place of Mr. Watson, who returns to India ;
and Mr. Campbell, having given his services in Cal-
cutta for a period of u arty four years gratuitously,
to the satisfaction and advantage of the directors and
proprietor', a piece of plate, value 2001., was unani-
mously voted to him as an acknowledgment of the
value of his services.
