From the evidence of ono of the railway watchmen and
other witnesses, it appeared that on the proceedings afternoon
the pi Moner had got ilown on the hanks of the railway near
the footpath bridge between II ighbury and the Graen.lauss,
one of the most dangerous k tines on the whole line. He

returned, and not content with putting small atones la
on the line, got • number of bricks, which wan Ift
cut in half by the Moine going over them, and which mused LS

The railway, share market to-day is generally
flatter. London and South-Western stock has
fallen to 90 to 1 ; and Great Western to 631
to 64. London sad North-Western is a
little lower, at 961 to 96. Berwick, Cale-
donian, and Edinburgh, Perth, and Dundee
stocks are all worse. Midland is quoted 80 to 1 ;
and Eastern Counties 11 5-16 to 7-16 per share.
Great Northern has receded to 24 to 1 per share,
after touching 241, " buyers," late yesterday after-
noon. Canadian railway shares meet with a little
more inquiry at the recent reduction.

AIONBY MARKET.-THIS DAY.

Two &Moot.

The funds remain dal', with a dwindling tendency.
Prices are now quoted 4 per cent lower than at four
o'clock yesterday. English railway stocks con-
tinue to decline. Bulimia throughout the Stock
Exchange exhibits no symptom of revival.
Consols stood during the greater part of the day
at 00l to 4 for the 14th of October, and are now
quoted exactly 901. For money the present price
is 90 to 4. The New Three per Cents. (shut) have
been dealt in at 901 with div. ; Exchequer Bills
at Bs. dii.; Bank Stock, for account, at 2184; and
India Bonds, at 235. die.
Turkish Six per Cents. arc a little flatter, at 944
to t. Other foreign stocks are fairly supported. The
sales include Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. at
981 to 974 (exch. 26fr.); Dutch Two-and-a-Half
per Cents. at 641 ; ditto, Four per Cent. Certifia
at 991 ; Mexican Bonds at 211 ; Russian Five per
Cents. at 1094 to 1091; ditto Four-and-a-Half
per Cents. at 981 ; Sardinian Five per Cents., at
894; Spanish Old Three per Cents., for account, at
401 ; ditto, Deferred, at 251; and Turkish Guaran-
teed Four per Cents., at 991 for account.
It is considered possible that news of the next
mail from India may be received by Friday next. It
is idle, however, to attempt to fix any date for the
arrival of the mail, since the monsoon, though pro-
bably diminished in force, would still be blowing,
and the steamers rarely leave the Indian ports on
the days fixed for their departure.
The Montmorency arrived at Liverpool yester-
day from Melbourne, with 50,196 ounces of gold on
freight, worth about 200,8001. This remittance ie
expected to reach London in a day or two. The ad-
vices have been anticipated.
The 343,8001. in gold and 80,000 sovereigns, ex
the Norfolk, from Melbourne, reached London yes-
terday. A sum of 50,0001. has already been sold for
exportation to the Continent, and further large
amounts will be purchased to-day for the same
quarter. The sovereigns, being of English coinage,
go into the Bank.
It was announced yesterday that the steamer Van-
derbilt has arrived at Southampton from New York,'
with three days later advices and the trifling sum of,
about 2,4001. in specie on freight.
Advice' from San Francisco mention the arrival
of 80,0001. in dollars from Mexico, destined for ex-1
portation to China. Mexican dollars are constantly
flowing to China from various points of the American
coast, in addition to the large amounts remitted',
from England.
Telegraphic advices, dated St. Petersburg, Satur-
day, report a great storm and fire on the Ladoga
Canal. Two -hundred " barks," or country craft,
laden with produce destined for shipment, including
flour, timber, &c., were wrecked. The damage, how-
ever, does not appear to represent any serious aggre-
gate, and the quantity of tallow lost is believed to
be comparatively small. The price of tallow was
quoted from 179 to 182 ro. on the spot. The ex-
change on London stood at the low quotation of
371 d., which shows a large profit on remittances of
gold to this aide, provided that gold could be pro-
cured in Russia.
The Liverpool Dock Committee invite tenders for
the construction of a line of electric telegraph from
Liverpool to Holyhead, " including communications
with the necessary semaphore stations."
At the adjourned meeting of proprietors of the
Bank of England yesterday, the proposal for a divi-
dend of 64 per cent. for the half year was duly
oonfirmed by ballot. The proceedings were purely
formal.
The first call of 51., making 71. 2a. paid, is to be
paid on the shares of the Wimbledon and Dorking
Railway Company (Wimbledon to Epsom line) by
the 17th Oct. The third call of 21. 10s. making
71. 10s. paid, is also to be paid on the shares of the
Epsom and Leatherheed Railway Company as f0110w.5,27.i5.,
low.s,27.is., 1!. Se. by the 17th Oct., and 11. ss, by the

17th Nov.
The half-yearly meeting of the Imperial Gas Com-
pany is called for the Bth October, and that of the
South Metropolitan Gas Company for the 14th Oc-
tober, when a dividend is to be declared.
A payment of 11. per share being the fourth
tenth of the capital, is to be effected on the shares of
the Sardinian Credit Mobilier Society by the 30th
instant.
Several descriptions of American railway securi-
ties were flatter yesterday, including Illinois Central
sharer, which have again declined to a discount-
The Admiralty have accepted the ships Damietta,
Dauntless, and Isabella Blyth, for the conveyance of
stores respectively to Simon's Town, Malta, and the
Mauritius. The following are to be surveyed, pre-
vious to being taken up for the conveyance of stores
—viz., the British Tar, for Ascension ; Margaret
Thomson, for Bermuda ; Albion, for Jamaica •, Bri-
tannia, for Gibraltar; and the New Great Britain,
for Hong Kong.

TUESDAY Evisixi.

In the funds to-day business was again excessively
dull, and prices were nearly stationary. The closing
quotations were about 1-16 per cent. below those of
yesterday. Considering the importance of the crisis
in India, and the prospect of a government loan,
prices seem too high to tempt extensive investments,
yet not high enough to encourage speculation for a
fall, since operators in an adverse direction reason-
ably apprehend that any material reduction would
stimulate the bowl file absorption of stock. The
market thus remains stagnant. Meanwhile atten-
tion is principally diverted to the market for Eng-
lish railway shares, which is decidedly heavy in
character, and droops daily. This seems to be occa-
stoned rather by the absence of demand than by any
sales of magnitude. At this season, when the ma-
jority of the dealers and speculators are out of town,
a few realisations of comparatively unimportant
amount are sufficient to determine the tendency of
the market. London and North Western stock still
exhibits chief heaviness, although the late consi-
derable fall has induced some purchases, moderate
in amount but good in character. It would appear
that the competition for traffic which is at present
eagerly carried on by some of the leading companies
tends to aggravate the heaviness of the market, for
such rivalry is rarely found remunerative to any of
the parties engaged in it. Great Northern Railway
stock, however, formed en exception to the general
gloom, rising upwards of 1 per cent. This stock,
which from half-year to half-year has experienced a
steady advance, stands now, for the first time, higher
than London and North Western. Another feature
of the share market was the increased depression of
Canadian railway securities.
In the discount market the demand continues good,
and the supply of money in the open market being
limited, there are a fair number of applications at
the Bank. _ . .

At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Rentes ex-
perienced a fall of about 3 per cent., closing at 68.96
for money, and 66.90 for the end of September.
It appears that the recent rally in the shares of the
Credit Mobilier Society, and of some of the railways,
has been materially promoted by the scarcity of
stock in the market, coupled with the privileges
which are placed at the command of a buyer by the
regulations of the Paris Bourse. By these it is pro-
vi&d that a buyer of securities, whether for
the fortnightly settlement in shares or for
the monthly settlement in the Rentes, may
at any period during the account summon
the seller to deliver the stock, and the latter must
do so within five days after the receipt of the noti-
fication. The option thus given to the buyer, of
forestalling the date of his bargain, is withheld,
however, from the seller ; i. e., the latter cannot com-
pel the buyer to take up and pay for stock until the
usual settling day. This regulation, which is
levelled against the practice of effecting merely spe-
culative sales of stock, seems to have been turned to
advantage by some of the parties interested

in the Credo 51uhi.lier, who on __Saturday
" discounted" (as the proms of demanding name-
diate delivery of the stock is termed) 600 shares
of the society, and yesterday 1,200 shares more.
Yesterday 250 shares in the Northern of France
Railway, and 23 in the Paris and Orleans Railway,
were in like manner " discounted ;" but it is re-
marked that the market, for a moment exceptionally
supported, always relapses as soon as the operation
is completed. Speculation on the Bourse is stated
to be almost exclusively confined at present to the
shares of the Cr4dit Mobilier, and Lyons, Southern
and Northern Railway Companies.
At Hamburg the rate of discount is 5; per cent.
Consols, which closed yesterday at 901 to for
the 14th October, were supported at that quotation
during the greater part of this day, and at the close
of the Stock Exchange were just a shade flatter, at
901, " buyers," the price for money being at the
same time 901 to 1. At a quarter past 4 the quota-
tion for the account was scarcely so good, viz.,
exactly 901. The official business report is as fol-
lows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 904,
901 ; ditto, for account (14th Ont.), 901, 9dl; the
New Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 75; Thirty Years
Annuities, expiring in Jan., 1860, 2 3-16 ; India
Stock, 2101, 210, 2121; India Bonds, 235. dis.
Exchequer Bills remain quoted Be. to 4s. dia.
There was no variation of importance in foreign
stocks. Turkish Six per Cents. closed at 941 to
95, and the Guaranteed Four per Cents. at 991 to 1.
Sales are recorded as follows :—Chilian Six per
Cents.,los. Dutch Four per Cent. Certificates, 100.
Mexican Three per Cents., 211, 4, 4. Peruvian
Four-and-a-Half per Cents., for account (30th
Sept.), 79 ex div. ; ditto Three per Cents., for ao-
