A 4,000 TON-BRIP ABOVE BRIDOE.—The unusual
=of • hull of huge dimensions moored of the
foot of Vattxhall-bridge has for some months peat
excited the curiosity of the purtr by, leading in some owes
to the extravagant s tpposittoa that • ship of some thousands
of toms is being built so high up the river. The feet, how-
ever, that site bee of the Baltic strip-breaking wharf at
coos explains her position. The Orinoco, one of the fleet
of the Royal Mall Steam Packet Company, after a brief
career_ , he& falles • prey to the dry rot, and hail been pur-
chased by Mr. Castle, ship-breaker, for a sum exceeding
6,0001. This, the largest ship that bee been broken up in
Loadoe, was built at Northfeet for the royal mail service;
her Mews was 3,090 register, sod about 4,600 borthen,ead
her dlstesdons 266 fast in length, by 44 feet in breadth. A.
might h. kingbird, it wee a task of no inconsiderable die.
catty to bring bet to her final destination. The first obstacle
to be overcome wee to reduce her bright sufficiently to enable
her to pees under the bridges, whlth was acoompliebed by
the removal of two of her upper decks, and the paddle-boxes
at the Viotoria Docks, and even then it required ell the so-
somas of powerful steam-tugs and WIN pilots to direct
her course, espeolay at Westminster, where, from the worts
Melte sow bridge, she had, in fact, two arches to pass under.
The work of demolition is making rapid progress, and the
ravages of the dry rot in some of the most important timbers
an shown by the crumbling of the wood at the stroke of the I
bummer.

LAUI4CIL—About noon on Saturday last, a mag-
nificent iron sailing vessel, of 1,024 tone, he 's semeze-
meat, was launched from the yard of Mem. Vernon sad
Bone, Brunswick Dock, Liverpool. The operation was goo-
easefully performed in the presence of a lugs amebae of woo-
tators, the vessel being named The AgYollol3bol by Min Har-
diest, daughter of one of the principal owners, and is clamed

WATERMAN'S STEAM PACKET COMPANT.—The
woad meeting of the shareholder In this computy wee held
on Friday, at the London Coffee-how, Mr. 'mine Is the
chair. The directors' report stated that the receipts for the
pest year bed fallen off 1,0001., bat they had redacted the ex-
risen of feel by 6001., so that the net Ins wee only 4001.
Tide telling off wee attributed to the bad staled the Thames,
and the decreased attraction of the Great Eastern. The de-
rhr:l7. of that vessel, and the conUnaed bed state of the
water made it probable that the &Meg off fathe re-
ceipts would be still greater In the followieg year. The
Creek= had been advised to take ap the Ipswich trade, and
they had pearlised the Father Thames, and run her three
dap a week, end this speculative had proved remunerative.
•dividead of 61. pee coot. was recommdad, and the report
umadepted. The directors end anditon wen re-elected. and
the maneration to the former was raised from 1001. to
3001., end the auditors from 31.85. to 101. 10a. for the past
year.

bute of regard in token of his great kindares to suffering

MONEY MARKET.-7MS DAY.

Two o'Cloox.

There is no variation to-day in the funds, which
are quoted almost exactly the same as on Saturday
afternoon. In the share markets, the settlement,
which has commenced this morning, has formed the
principal business, but a fresh improvement has
taken place in the stocks of several of the leading
British lineal.

The New Indian Loan shows a fresh rise of per
cent., being quoted 1041 to
The usual telegram from the Paris Bonne, hem
not yet oome to hand.

Consols are officially marked 961, 961, and 981
for money, and 981 and 1 for the account. The
present quotations are 961 for cash, and 981 to
1 for the Bth Dec. Beak Stock has been dealt in
at 228; the Three per Cents. Reduced, at 96,
941, and 951 ; the New Three per Cents.,
at 96, 941, and 961; India Stock, at 228;
the New Indian Loan, at 1041, 1041, 1041, and
1041; the Four per Cent. Debentures of 1868, at
981; ditto 1869, at 961 and 961; and Excheque
Bills, at 26e. to 30s. prem.
The foreign stock market is very quiet. The Old
Turkish Biz per Cents. remain quoted 78 to 77, and
the Loan of 1863,86 to 68. Mexican Bonds are steady,
at 221 to 1. In other foreign securities there is
alao an absence of fluctuation. Bales are recorded
as follows :—Brazilian Four-and-a-Half per
Cents., 1868, 961; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per
Cents., 851 (exchange 128.); Mexican Three per
Cents, 221; Permian Four-and-a-Half per Cents.,
911; Bosnia Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 991, 981,
Spanish Three per Cents., 441; Turkish Biz per
Cents., 1864, 761; ditto Biz per Cents., 1858, 661.
65j; Venezuela Two-and-a-Hall per Cents., 28, 281.
The East Indian Railway Company's Debenture
Loan of 1,800,0001. is now fully subscribed for.

The shares of the Ocean Marine Insurance Com-
pany are steady, at 1 5-16 to 17-16 prem.

The steamer; Amerioa and Bavaria have arrived
from the United States with 40,0001. in specie for
England.
_ _

It is understood that, in the event of the
traffic being maintained at its present level
up to the end of the year, the great railway com-
panies will be enabled to declare very satisfactory
rates of dividend. The London and North Western
Company will, in all probability, pay, for the current
six months, at the rate of at least 5 per cent. per
annum ; and the Midland and South Eastern at the
rate of 6 per cent. per annum. The anticipated
advance in the case of the latter company (which
always makes a larger distribution in the second
than in the first half of the year) is based upon the
savings which have been effected in the working
expellees at a time when the traffic presents a marked
increase.

The specie by the West India packet is in hand to-
day ; the 56,0001. in gold will be sent abroad.
The imports of the precious metals lest week
were small, representing a total of only 149,00 W.
(exclusive of the silver received from the Continent),
and comprising 126,6651. by the Tasmanian, from the
West Indies; and 22,6001. by the Arago, rom New
York.

A fall hu taken plane in the tallow market.
latelligenoe has been received by telegraph of the
arrival at Aden of the steamer Selma', with the
mail which left Bombay on the 12th inst., and which
is dee in London on the bth of next month. It is,
however, likely to be detained in Egypt, waitieg fox
the Australian mail.

The telegram in anticipation of the Bombay mail
quotas an improvement of 3 to i per cent. in the 4
and per cent. paper, but no alteration in the 5 per
amt.. The exchange appears to be a trifle more
favourable.

It appears by no means certain that the negotia-
tions pending between the South Eastern and Lon-
don, Chatham, and Dover (late East Kent) Railway
Companies will result in an immediate arrangement.
On Tuesday last a deputation from each board met,
and on Thursday next, we believe, a proposition
from the rival undertaking is to be submitted to the
South Eastern board. Upon the nature of that pro-
position will of course depend its acceptance or re-
jection. There is an impression that the London,
Chatham, and Dover Company contemplate asking
• good deal more than the South Eastern are pre-
pared to listen to. Should the former in-
sist upon a guarantee of 3i per cent., the
negotiation would doubtless be broken off.
It is even doubtful if the South Eastern
directors would be prepared to submit to their pro-
prietors the question of a guarantee of 3 per cent.
The London, Chatham, and Dover Company do not
contemplate having their line opened throughout
until October next, at the earliest. Their financial
position, too, Is of • character calculated to induce
the older and stronger company, whose traffic is now
developing itself in so satisfactory a manner, to
bide their time, assured that, between the present
date and that fixed for the opening of the com-
peting line, its promoters will feel more keenly the
advisability of coming to an arrangement. It would
of course be more satisfactory to both proprietaries
could a fusion of interests be effected at once, but
surprise can scarcely be felt if the established com-
pany decline lightly to relinquish their vantage
ground.
By the advioee from the Cape, we perceive that
the government has succeeded in placing the 80,0001.
of 6 per cent. Debentures recently advertised. The
total tendered for was 188,0001., of which 46,0601. at
6d. to 21. per cent. premium, and the remainder at
par. All the accepted tenders were from colonists.
Subjoined is a statement (from Mr. Slaughter's
Weekly List) of the railway calls falling due in the
month of December. The total is very moderate,
allowanoe being made for the fact that, of the
760,000/. called by the East Indian Railway Com-
pany, comparatively little now remains to be paid :
