PROPOSED AGRICULTURAL HALL FOR BRIGHTON. I,
—On Thursday a meeting was held at the Town-hall when
plans and specifications were submitted for building an'hotel
si.th a large hall attached on the site where the County .
Show was held last week—the field belonging to Mr. Tup-
pen at the bottom of Church-street. The hall is proposed
to seat from 5,000 to 6,000 persons, and a stock and corn
market is proposed to be held in connexion therewith-
The estimated cost is 17,0001. All were agreed as to the
desirability of the scheme, and after receiving all necessary
information the meeting was adjourned in order to enable
the projectors to con.er with the corn dealers using the
present market. The scheme, if csrried out, will be on
the joint-stock printiple.—prighlos Guardian.

A letter from Lieut. HtSmeut, of the 35th Regi-
ment, quartered at Tenez in Algeria, says :—" I wee
walking with a friend in the lower part of the town, when
at about 2in the afternoon we perceived what seemed a
sort of thick mist coming rapidly upon us, which we took
for a flock of birds of passage. But hardly five minutes
had elapsed when we found ourselves enveloped in the
cloud. It might have been about one kilometre (ft of a
milel in width by six in length, and was from 45 to 75
feet in thickness. It wee formed, not by birds, but by
locusts of passage, of the colour of wine-lees and of great
size. They continued their course from the west to the
east, passing behind Cape 'Truer, from which point they
turned towards the north, driven doubtless by the south-
' wind which has for several days past been blowing vio-
lently."
One day a fortnight ago the farmers of the
country around Quebec, headed by their parish priest, en-
tered that city with a long file of wagons, br;nging 300
bushels of potatoes to be distributed to the sufferers by
I the fire.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE EXPRESS.
Sin,—As I was retuminghome this morningabout
half-past 1 o'clock to 2, pawing through the City-road I
was surprised to see a female, about 22 years of age, walk-
ing in her sleep, and covered only by a night-dress. A
policeman's attention being drawn to her, he stopped her,
and by so doing awoke her, causing her to be in great con-
fusion. We found she had strayed some considerable dis-
tance. She was very cold (a light rain falling at the time),
and the policeman readily lent the use of his great coat to
cover her. As he declined to carry her I undertook that office,
and carried her home by the direction of a youth who had
been almost frightened out of his wits by the supposed ap-
parition, and who had seen her leave home. Finding the
street-door open the policeman entered, and by the young
woman's direction awoke her husband, who could hardly
understand the exact position of affairs. She had strayed
a distance of 300 yatda. The rare occurrence of aomnam-
bulb= induces me to send you theseparticulara.—l am, &c.,

MOYEY MARKET.

'HIS DAY.)

- ;

Um o'Cwoa.
The English funds are in request to-day, and
have advaaced # per cent. Some of the foreign
securities are likewise rather better, but home

railway stocks rze still pressed for use, and the
movements in prices are again unfavourable, with
the exception i.f a slight recovery in London,
Chatham, and Dover. In the miscellaneous depart-
ment of tho ock Exchange quotations show
no change of inn....rtance, but Anglo• American and
Hudson's Bay shar,s are fiat. Attention is directed
t:. the fortnightly settlement, which has just com-
menced and will be emeluded on Friday.

The demand for money to-day ismoderate, and

the supply large. The rate for good bills is at to
31 per cent. The cliarge for advances from day to
day on English government securities is 2i per

Consols are now quoted 88} to f, ex die., for
money, and 8S I, ex div., for the account

(January 10).
The scrip of the New Russian Loan is in better
demand, and hai recovered 1 per cent —viz. to
1 prem. Spanish Passive Bonds were also k
higher, but the other speculative descriptions are
unaltered. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are quoted 58to
59; ditto 1865, 32. to 33 ; Greek, 131 to 14} ;
Spanish Passive, 19: to ; ditto Certificates, 13}
to it ; Italian of 1861, 53i, to ; Mexican, 180 to
American securities are steady, at the closing
prices of yesterfLy. The 5-20 Bonds are quoted
70} to 71. Erie Railway shares, 47} to t ; and

Illinois Central, 77.1 to I.
Anglo-American Telegraph shares have declined
2s. 6d., viz., to 1Z to ; and Atlantic Tele-
graph 8 per cent. Preference are rather dull, at
to 1.
International Financial shares are quoted 29-16
to 7-16 dis. ; London Financial, 19i to 18I) dis. ;
General Credit, 2; to 2 dis. ; Credit Foncier,
5; to dia. ; National Discount, 9g to prem. ;
and Hudson's Bay, 16; to g.

It appears that the amount of the India 5 pee
cent. stock winch the government had the power,
upon giving notice, of paying off in 1870, is about
16,000,000/. As there has been no intention on
their part to pay it off so soon, it has been con-
sidered advisable to give notice at once of the ex-
tension of the 71 Nr cent. rate of interest for ten
years from that date, for the convenience of trus-
tees and other holders. The action taken by the
government in the matter is appreciated as being
considerate, but Las given rise to a rumour that a .
new Indian Government loan is contemplated-
We understand, however, that there is no foun-
dation whatever for this report.
The amount of gold bought by the Bank yester-
day was 84,000/.
The Mandingu, from the West Coast of Africa,
has brought about 10,0001. in gold dust and specie.
There is still no signs of any renewal of the flow
of specie to the East. The amount shipped foe
Bombay by the Tanjore, which will leave to-mor-
row, is only 1,66/.
The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon were
steady. The only alteration was a fresh movement
against Austria. The usual list is subjoined :

AKSAULT BY A " BIOLO4;IST."—Mons. Zamoislci, a
Polish biologist. performing at Douglas. Isle of Man,
recently attameed Mr. Ouseley, editor of a Manz paper, in
one of the principal hotels of Douglas, ht-cause of some
opposition that gentleuian had given to a prop eel enter-
tainment for Zamoiski's benefit. Zamoiski thrcattned to
"do for" Ouley, and, on meeting wi same ti th he
me striking
in
the hotel, called him a scoundrel, at the samer
him two violent blows in the face, knocking him down, and
rendering him almost insensible. 7Amoiski threatened to
kill Mr. Ousley the first opportunity, remarking. `e It's
not a paper war well have, but a loody war—a war
Ito the knife." Sub,equently, the biologist was attested
for the assault and threats •, and after being kept in prima
all night was taken before the chief magistrate at Douglas
on Thursday morning, charged with assault and threaten-
ing to murder. He was ordered to find sureties for six
months. Mr. Onseley has commenced an action for
I damages.—Csiaberiand Novas.
