The highly satisfactory character of the recent re-
turns of the Bank of England is rapidly causing a
disappearance of the feeling of distrust which has
latterly prevailed. In particular, attention has been
directed to the important decrease of 859,565/. in
the amount of Bank of England notes in the hands
of the public. There could be no stronger evi-
dence that affairs are returning to a normal con-
dition, that bankers are becoming tired of hoard-
ing notes, and that the usual machinery of
cheques is again being resorted to for the settle_
ment of transactions in quarters where, owing to
the recent distrust of banking credit, notes or gold
have lately been required. The continued extra-
ordinary accumulation of bullion in the Bank of
France, the reduction in the rate of discount of
the Bank of Frankfort from 7 to 6 per cent., and
the steadiness of the foreign exchanges, likewise
tend to give a spur to confidence. It seems proba-
ble that the contraction of trade on the Continent
through the war will affect the value of money
there, and at the same time cause a diversion to
this market of large amounts of foreign
capital. Moreover, the unexpectedly favour-
able nature of the accounts from India,
following the announcement there of the failure of
the Agra and Masterman's Bank, seems to remove
one of the last obstacles to a reduction in the rate
of discount at the Bank of England. A downward
movement is now fully looked for on Thursday next,
more especially as the receipt on Saturday of no
less than G 78,0001. in specie by the Persia from
New York furnishes ample means for meeting any
present demands for foreign remittance, besides
rendering it probable that some further addition
will be made to the already large stock in the Bank
of England. Amongst the other considerations
which tend to a restoration of confidence may be
mentioned the efforts that are being made
to reconstitute some of the largest of the
failed banks—a course which it is scarcely
necessary to say is regarded with lively satisfac-
tion both by the shareholders and customers. It
is no small gain to the community generally that
the depositors in several of these concerns now see
their way more clearly to a recovery of large funds
lucked up in them, and the release of which, it
seemed likely at one time, could only be effected
through the cumbrous, expensive, and dilatory
machinery of the Court of Chancery.
About 2,0001. in gold was sent into the Bank on
Saturday. The I'ersia, from New York, has brought
the large sum of 678,000/., a portion of which, it is
thought, will be retained here.
Tho amount of government bills on India, for
which tenders will be received at the Bank of Eng-
land on the 4th July, will be 35,00,000 rupees
(35.0,000/.)
It appears that the announcement of the failure
in London of the Agra and Masterman's Bank
reached Bombay by telegram on the evening of the
13th inst., and that the doors of that establishment
there were closed on the following morning. The
stoppage in London occurred on the 6th inst.
The Vice Chancellor Kinderaley has confirmed
the appointment of Mr. R. P. Harding and of Mr.
W. Turquand as joint liquidators of Overend,
Gurney, and Company (Limited).

meeting of the shareholders of the Imperial Otto-
man Bank on Wednesday, the 27th inst., can now

don agency, New Bank-buildings.

City of Moscow Gas Company (Limited) by the

An advertisement from the Ottoman Railway
Company states as follows :
The directors have to inform the shareholders that the
advices they have received from Smyrna leave no doubt as
to the opening of the through line to Aidin within the speci-
fied time, viz., the Ist July. The directors, however. re-
gret that, on account of the increased outlay occasioned
by the unavoidable delays in completing the works, and
the necessity of providing for the payment of the overdue
debentures, the share coupons of the lit July
be met.
The San Paulo (Brazilian) Railway Company
(Limited) have notified that the transfer books will
