THE OOTERNOREHIP OP THE DEVIZES PRISON.—
A committee of candidates for this recently vacant appoint-
most have addressed • memorial to Lord Palmerston
stating that 31 gentlemen were induced by public advertise-
ment to go down to Devises on the day of election, though
lb, appointment was, in fact, already 110 far determiued
apron that their presence was entirely useless. They claimed
their expenses, which the county magistrates refused.
THE BARQUE CHORISTER. Captain Prowee, be-
lee giag to Milan. Ilayerolt and Pethick, has now on board
at the North Qsay, Plymouth, a leopard which she has
besought from South America. The animal is said to be the
Arrest ever seen in this country.
NEw Clltracn.—On Tuesday, the 18th instant,
the Bishop of &dor and Mann consecrated the new chancel
and parish church and churchyard of Kirk Marown, and
his brdshl_p_preached the consecration sermon,
NEW WINO TO Solleitan HOUSE.—The front of
the sew wing at the west end of Somerset House., which
was cemissuced about twelve mouths ago, is now completed
exteeiorly.
THE EFFICACY OF LAw.—Since the passage of
the steamboat law, says as American paper, not one life
leas been lost by explosion in the district of Cincinnati.
Previous to the law there were 60 explosions within 25
years, cassias a lose of upwards of 3,000 Lees.

The Exchequer Bill market showed increased hea-
viness, and in the afternoon sales could not be effected
on better terms than par; the closing quotation was
par to 4s. prem. In face of the late doubling of the
rate of interest on the floating debt, this movement
of the market is sufficiently significant. An impres-
sion seems to have prevailed that the Chancellor of
the Exchequer, by merely raising the interest, could
place almost any amount of Exchequer Bills on the
market, as his necessities might require. It would
appear, however, that the attempt under present
circumstances to effect the sale of any large amount
would quickly drive the price to a discount. We
have here a striking illustration of the mischievous
effect produced by rashly tampering with the market. As
we have several times had occasion to remark of late,
the Exchequer Bill market is almost destroyed for
the time, the confidence hitherto felt in this class of
government security being greatly shaken. India
Bonds remain dull, at 10s. dia. to par.
The Foreign Stock Market continues extremely
dull, and the transactions are altogether too restricted
to have any effect upon prices. Spanish was flatter,
including the certificates issued by the Bondholders'
Committee. Russian Stocks maintain their quota-
tion : At four o'clock Mexican Bonds were
quoted 231 to 24; Spanish Deferred, 211 to t;
the Certifs., 6 to 51 per cent. Peruvian Four-and-
a-Half per Cents., 71 to 73 ; ditto Three per Cents.,
49 to 61. Russian Five per Cents., 112 to 114;
ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 96 to 98.
Granada Active, 20 to 22 ; ditto Deferred,
8 to 81. The list of actual sales is brief, in-
cluding only the following Stocks, via.:
Brazilian Five per Cent. New Bonds, 1829 and
1839, 981. Buenos Ayres Six per Cents., 57.
Dutch Two.and-a-Half per Cents., 63, 621, ; ditto
Four per Cent. Certificates, 94, 931. French
Four-and-a-Relf per Cent. Rentals, 99f. 50c. (ex-
change, 24f. 95c.). Mexican Three per Cents., 231.
Peruvian Four•and-a-Half per Cents., 72. Russian
Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 981; ditto Small, 971.
Spanish Three per Cents., 441; ditto New Deferred
Three per Cents., 211; the Committee's Certificates,
5 per cent.
We have still no change of importance to report
in the money market. On short dated first class
bills money is easily obtained at a reduction on the
minimum rate of the Bank of England, but long
dated and inferior paper can only be negotiated with
difficulty and at a high charge.
There were continued inquiries to-day for gold for
transmission to the Continent.

The quotations of foreign exchange to-day, with
the exception of Amsterdam, which was rather
lower, were slightly firmer than those of last post,
bills being generally in better supply, including
Hamburg. and Paris.
A portion of the bar silver brought in last week
by the steamer La Plata has been sold at 56. ltd.
per ounce standard, being an advance of Id. per oz.
on the price last quoted. More than half of the
bar silver imported by this vessel, however, yet
remains unsold, but it will probably be placedi at
the same price. The dollars have all been sold at
4s. 11;d. per ounce, being a rise of Id. The pur-
chases are still for India and China.

The upward tendency of the corn market received
to-day a new stimulus, being assisted by the conti-
nuance of wet weather, by the falling off in the
supplies of grain, and by the general conviction that
the diminution in the shipments of oorn from the
ports of the South of Europe, and the high freights,
will cause a corresponding diminution in the arrivals
for some months to come. Wheat to-day met with
a brisk sale at an advance of about 2s. per qr. on
Monday's prices. Flour was 2s. per sack dearer.
Oats advanced Is., and barley maintained its value.
In floating cargoes few sales were made in the ab-
sence of sellers, or owing to the extreme rates de-
manded. In Indian corn no business was reported.
We understand the leading Hebrew moneycUngers
of Lotdon, viz., Messrs. Spielmann and Co., Mon-
teaux Brothers, A. Bauer and Co., and Baum, Sons,
and Co., have agreed not to purchase any Austrian
hank notes so long. as the Jewish disabilities lately
revived are maintained in Austria. It is also ex-
pected that the other money changers of the metro-
polis will consent to adhere to the same resolution.
It is scarcely necessary to point out that this step is
intended as a dern.^-' against Austria; should

the example be followed by the Jewish money
changers in the other markets of Europe, the effect
produced w ill be the more important. We also un-
derstand that since the announcement of this retro-
grade measure of Austria with respect to the Jews,
not a single transaction has taken place in Austrian
stock on the London Stock Exchange, as, though
several sellers have appeared, they have met with no
purchasers. It will thus be seen that, up to this
time, the Hebrew dealers in this stock bare practi-
cally acted up to the disposition which they are
known to entertain on the subject.
Hamburg letters received this day report two
mercantile failures at Stockholm, a portion of the
loss falling on the first named city. Discount conti-
nued tight at 5 per cent. and upwards. In grain
little business was going forward.
The deposit of 100 f., or 41.05. 6d. per share will be
payable on the new shares of the Paris and Strasburg
Railway Company on the 12th November.
The 13th call of 70 Tuscan livres, or 21.65. Bd. per
share, falls due on the shares of 1,000 livrea of the
Maria Antonia Railway Company on the 21st of
November.

An extraordinary general meeting of the share-
holders of the railway from Charleroi to the frontier
of France is to be held on tho 12th of November, at
Marchienne-au-Pont, near Charleroi, to deliberate
upon certain modifications' of the company's statutes.
Land shares to day were dull, and rather fiat.
South Australian Land declined 11. Australian
Agricultural were last quoted 33i to 34k. Bank
