SUSPICIOUS OCCUR'S/ME AT OLASOOW.—Another
life bee bees lost in the city of Glasgow under circummeaces
which at protect render it doubtful whether it has been me-
cideetel or a owe of murder. About 12 o'oicick last Saturday
might an old woman, named Mary Woods or Burke, was
(-tied lying In a state of iewesaimitity on a stair waging to
her house, at 96, Old Wysd. She was removed to the Cm-
real Police-46m where Dr. 1142101 found a large cut on the
back el her head, from which the blood was Sowing pro-
fited?. She dled about eight o'clock on Sunday
mashie. having remind fassasibis up to thee.
The polka lest so lbws In soak* isqdriea into
the affair, end the following is the substance of
the int:maim they have been able to collect in the mean-
time seams that the old woman, who is a widow, lives
with her two ems, William and Patrick Burke, both tailors.
During her eimmos from the hone on Saturday night her
man William bed brought Into the Slum, about 11 &cloth, a
we—n wesidwatty intoxicated. When kis mother ease In
ohs heal the weans sitting upon the Soot, and ordered her
to leave the bones Her son took part with the woman, and
refused to allow his mother to put her out. At this
juncture the other we, Patrick, entered the hones,
acd else ordered the woman out. It would appear that
a soak heveapoe ensued between the two awls
and the mother, William, It is said, haying been mesa
to as his mother, while the other brother sided
with her veinal his brother. Whether the old worn= re-
ceived the injury which rendered her insensible during the
mita, or whether she was intestinally knocked down the
stair or fell down accidentally, thus receiving the wound, it
is Impossible to decide, from the mistimes in the statements
of the parties who saw the Adair. Some of them 'marimba
wee knocked down, others that they saw her fall down sad-
delltalir. and others that they sew William assault bee with
a weapon daring the sculls. Patrick and the woman were
shortly after the occurrent). apprehended. The other brother
'soaped, bet was eppreheoded yesterday afternoon. The
polio" are vigorously investigating the matter, and the,, is
little doubt that the true canes of the untimely death of the
unfortunate woman will be asoortainsd.—North British Day
Neil.

MONEY MARKET.-THIS

Two o'CLoow.

A fresh decline of per cent. has taken pines
to-day in the funds, which are prejudiced by
the pending settlement, by the delay in the
production of the Budget, and by a
somewhat less hopeful impression with regard to
the prospects of the money market. In the share
markets there 1114 been no movement of importance,
but where any alteration is observable in prices it is
in an unfavourable direction. Very little business
is going forward. The settlement in Consols en-
gages attention.

The opening price of the Three per Cent. Rents
at Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter's
telegram, was 67.6.5, wheuoe the market receded to
67.66, being sc. lower than yesterday.
The Indian Five per Cent. Stock of 1833 has de-
clined to 1021 to 103. The Indian rupee paper re-
mains steady.
The scrip of the New Canada Five per Cent.
Loan is slightly flatter at 21 to 2i prem.
Consols are officially marked 941, 1,1, and 1 for
money. and 941 and 1, for the account (Bth Feb.).
The present quotations are 941 to for cash and
to-morrow, and 941 for the Bth March. The Three
per Cents. Reduced have also been dealt in at 911 and
ti the New Three per Cents., at 9441, 1,1, and 1; the
New Two-and-a-Half per Cent'., at 78i India stock,
at 219, 2171, and 219 i ; the New Indian Five per
Cent. Stook, at 103/, 1031, 1021, and 1021 ; the
Five per Cent. enfaoed rupee paper, at 981; ditto
Five-and-a-Half per Cent., at 1041; India Honda,
at 2s. die., and 3.. prim.; and Exchequer Bills, at
255. and 22v. prem.

The foreign stock market is quiet, but steady.
The Turkish Loan of 1854 is quoted 781 to /, and that
of 1868, eat, to 661. Mexican Bonds are dull.
Sales are recorded as follows: Brazilisa
Four.and-a-Half per Cents., 1852, 931, 931 ;
Ditto Four-and-a-11'1f per Cents., 1858,
93j, 93; ; Belgian Four-and-a-Half per
Cents., 100 (exchange, 25f.) ; Dutch Two-Ird-a-
Half per Cents.. 661 (exchange,l26.) ; Equador New
Consolidated, 131 ; Mexican Three per Cents., for
account, 21 ; Portuguese Three per Cents., 1863,
for account, 43j; Rassian Three per Cents., 1859,
661; Spanish Three per Cants., for account, 441 ; do.

ditto Pismire, 111; Turkish Six per Cents., 1854,
781, 781: ditto Six per Cents., 1858, for account,
651, 66.

The discount market is calm, bat an unsettled
feeling still prevails, many of the bill-brokers being
indisposed to enter into fresh engagements until the
prospects of the market become clearer. The terms
for good bills up to three months are 4 to 41 per
cent.; for four months, 4i to 6 per cent.; and for six
months about 61.
The amount of gold withdrawn from the Bank
yesterday for exportation was 16,0001. The Donald
IdeKay has arrived from Melbourne with 148,0001.
in gold, the greater portion of which has already
been sold for the Continent. The Jura, from New
York, has brought 10,5001. in specie, and the Avon,
from Brazil, 6,7331.
The bar silver by the Mexican packet has been
sold for the Rut at ss. 21d. per ounce, showing a
fall of id. compared with the price realised for the
supply by the previous packet, although the present
rate has been current in the interval. The Mexican
dollars remain on sale, but the Bolivian and Chilies'
