mitted en Ste 4th alt. to take his trial at the semung County

We are assured that the Venezuelan minieter in
London has received powers from his government to
arrange the debt here, and that he will shortly put
himself into communication (if he has not already
done so) with the bondholders, or with the ocan-
mittee. It Linn:neared that Mr. Mocatta, the Cam-
suttee's reptementative in Venezuela, has rendered
himself personally obnoxious to the government.

According to itiof6cial intimation forwarded this
day by the directors of the Great Northern Railway
Company to the Stook Exchange, a sum of 147,0361.
is available for dividend on the original and A and
B stocks for the half-year ending the 31st December
kat. It is intimated that "this sum is divisible at
the rate of 61. 2a. 6d. per cent. per annum on the
original stock, and of wares at an equivalent rate
on the A and B stocks conjointly." Considering the
late severe competition and the nnreninnerative ikru;
which were so long current, this result is regarded as
highly satisfactory.
It Is said that the forthcoming dividend on Ber-
wick Railway stock will be at the rate of 41 to 6
per cent. per annum, and that on York and North
Midland stock at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum.
The London and North Western Railway truffle
return shows this week an increase of 6,1691. ; the

South Western an increase of 1,0241.
