standing the continuance of the extremely unset-
tled weather, and the receipt of somewhat lower
prices from Paris. Consols are quoted about I per
oent. better than yesterday afternoon. The market
for British railway stocks is likewise firmer. The
principal movement, however, is a fresh recovery

In the Court of Exchequer yesterday, the intereet-
ing (.1146, " Cookson v. The Bank of England,"
came on before Mr. Baron Martin and a special
jury. The object of the action was to make the
Bank liable for the value of a cheque " to order"
for 6551. 12s. 10d., which was endorsed by pram-
ration of the payees, and was, paid by the Bank.
The plaintiffs denied the authority of the agent to
sign, and demanded payment a second time. Mr.
Bovill submitted that the Bank were not required
to ascertain the genuineness of the endorsement
before paying the cheque, and that they were pro-
tected. Baron Martin thought that the section
protected the banker, even though the cheque had
been endorsed without the authority of the plain-
tiff. It was, be observed, "one of the new
fashioned cheques, made payable to order," and
thereupon he directed the plaintiffs to be non-
suited, giving them leave to move.
Illinois Central Railway shares were flatter yester-
day, at 42 to 41 dia., owing is rumours of another
aill. A call of 5 dole. would retire the " Free-
land " bonds, and thereby free the whole of the
company's land. The farmers' notes fur land sold,
which are now locked up in the /made of trustees
on behalf of the Freeland bondholders, would like-
wise be rendered an available asset were the Free-
land bond debt extinguished.
The meeting of the Australian Royal Mail Com-
pany, held yesterday at thti London Tavern, was a very
small one, and the report recommending a division
of se. 9d. per share was adopted. A resolution
was then passed to dissolve the company. Mr. T.
G. Taylor unsuccessfully sought to delay the latter
resolution for six months, by arguing that the
charter of the company was a valuable one, and
might in proper hands become of service to the
proprietors. He assured the shareholders that
there was every chance of obtaining a new Austra-
lian contract. A resolution to dissolve was ulti-
mately carried by sixteen shareholders, inclusive of
the directors. Six hands only were held up in
favour of Mr. Taylor's amendment.
Tenders are required at the India-office for the
conveyance of 700 soldiers from Gravesend to Cal-
