Tag Flux BALLOON ANCLICI OF TEL BLAZON.—
Mr. Coxwell, the celebrated aeronaut, is engaged to ascend
from the Crystal Palace grounds on Whit-Moaday, when
he will make short return purveys (or partial escalate with
• rope), besides the mod fiord anent, which will take
place with a full party of aerial travellers. Mr. Carvell
will ascend also durum the Whit-week from Dudley Castle,
and some other favourite provincial resorts. Last summer,
notwithstanding the boisterous weather, Mr. Coxwell con.
tamed his enterprises with the same undaunted spirit as
ever, and accomplished thirty-six ascents in four menthe,
which were unprecedented fur wind sod nice—Ere.
Tug WEATHER AHD THZ GAZDZN. —This thirst
ungenial weather almost puts • stop to vegetation, sad in-
doors tires are needed as much as they were in December.
The wind has been east and north-east for • long time pest ;
and this we believe is the eighth season in succession when
we have bad • bitter cold spring, • north east wind, and
frosty eighth The wall fruit is entirely gone ; the goose-
berries acd current., of which there was a capital show, are
fast falling off the trees ; the early peas and potatoes are
nipped, end indeed all vegetation u in a deplorable condi-
, ties. The nightingale charms us with his song as usual at
this period ; but the nightiagale's song in the tree, and the
lawn white with frost at the same time, are rather an
anoinaly.—Glassbriripe Independent.
RAILWAY AVI7IDENT AT MANCHE:ITER. —An
alarming accident took place yesterday morning at the Vie.
toria railway station, Manchester. The train front York-
shire which leaves Norrnanton at six a.m. ran down the
steep incline from Miles Platting into the )(enchanter ter-
minus at • greater speed than was usual or Oafe, and could
not be checked before it had come in violent contact with
the stationary buffers, and then rebounded. One of the
buffers was broken and the other damaged, and several pas-
ser/gen have suffered by the concussion. The trains de-
w:eat this incline without steam power being need ; the
break has to be freely applied to hold them in cheek, and in
this instance evidently del not answer its . Only
one person wan very eeriously hurt ; this was r. Thomas
Howarth, of Oldham-road, Manchester, who has concussion
of the brain. _ _

tfE---kORLIGN BILL Foßomo SYSTEM.-John
Solomon, who was brought before the Liverpool magistrates
last week on the charge of forging bills of exchange, again
appear.] yesterday under remand. The accusation was
that the prisoner had tittered two forged bills of exchange,
one for 1371. the other for 300 f.. purporting to be drawn
upon Richardson Brothers and Co., of London. Mr. Richard.
son was called to state that there was no other firm than his
of that name iu London, and that they had not signed
the hills above mentioned. and by means of which the pri-
soner had defrauded a Prussian merchant of goods. It wae
elicited thstthe hills had been uttered in Prussia, and there-
upon Mr. Cobb (the prisoner's solicitor) started the objec-
tion that as the offence took place without the British
realms there could be no prosecution in this country. The
court could not get over the objection, and the ease, with
several others of a similar character, was dismissed.
One of the nun of "gentlemen whips," Mr.
Rowland Berkeley, dial in Jersey on the Ist instant. He
was a sou of Rowland Berkeley, Esq., of Beirefield, North-
amptonshire. When Sir Vincent Cotton, Bart., handled
the " ribbons" on the box of the Age Brighton coach, Mr.
lierkeley was similarly employed on the Great North-road.
A large number of envelopes of letters now used
in the northern states of Amara* bare "Gest blew the ,
UnMo" printed on them. Many have on them also the
flag •.f the United States, the seers and stripes printed in
colours, with transverse black stripes to represent the
reereaut states. Envelopes used in the south have also the
Union flag, with the stars reduced to the number of the
confederated states.

MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAL)

Two o'Cvaei.

The funds remain very inactive at the slight re-
duction in prices which took place yesterday after-
noon. The Bank of England return is of a charac-
ter to allay anxiety, but has not exercised any '
marked influence. The return of the Bank of
France (given in another column) is favourable.
In the share markets there is no variation of im-
portance, owing to the almost complete absence of
business.

At Paris this morning, according to Mr.
Reuter 's telegram, the Three per Cent. Renters
were quoted li9fr. 40c., being sc. better than
yereterday.

Consols are officially marked 91f and 1 for
money, and 92 and 912 for the account. The
present quotations are 91i; to 2 for cash, and 912
to 92 for the Gth of June. The official
business report is as follows :—Three per
Cents. Reduced, 891, 3 ; New Three per
Cents., 892, 2, ; India Five per Cent. Stock,
101} ; Five-and-a-Half per Cent. " enfaced" rupee
paper, 100 ; Exchequer Bills, ss, 9a die.
Scarcely any business has been done in the foreign
stock market. Prices are nominally unaltered.
The Turkish Loan of 1854 is quoted 702 to 712, and
that of 1868, 56} to 56. Sales are recorded as
follows :—Mexican Three per Cents., for account,
221 ; Portuguese Three per Cents., 1853, for ac-
count, ; Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents.,
91i.
The exact amount of specie shipped to-day for
New York by the Persia is 236,0001.
The mails from Calcutta, China, and Australia
will be delivered in London on Monday morning.
HALF-run Two &Cram.
Consols show no change, being still quoted 912
to 3 for money, and 912 to 92 for the account.
The discount market continues active, and, as
the lowest terms for the best bills in other quarters
were sto 51 per cent., a rather heavy amount of
business was again done at the Bank yesterday.
About 8,0001. in bar gold was bought by the
Bank yesterday, while 100,000 sovereigns were
withdrawn for transmission to-day to New York by
the Persia.

The Ellora will take to-morrow 94,5441. in
silver, and 38,0001. in gold for Bombay, and
9,5001. in gold for Alexandria, making altogether
142,0 W. ; 50,4741. of the silver is on government
aooount.

In the absence of demand for the East, partly oc-
casioned by the tightness in the money market, it
is anticipated that the large supplies of silver at
present on offer will be sold for the Continent. To
make this transaction profitable, however, to ex-
porters a considerable reduction must take place in
the price here. Mexican dollars are also very fiat,
but are leas pressed for sale. As the Eastern tele-
grams received yesterday report a favourable move-
ment in the exchanges, the exportation of silver
and dollars to India and China on mercantile ac-
count will probably be further checked.
The continental exchanges yesterday afternoon
were again firm, with is favourable tendency, except
as regards paper on Austria. Subjoined is our
usual list :

---iitn-stnisin, 3 months, 11.191 to 1 ; ditto 3 days, 11.17

reached Malta on Wednesday, and are expected to
be distributed in London early next week. The
dates are : Calcutta, April 9 ; Hong Kong, April
1; Shaughae, March 24 ; and Melbourne, March 25.
The subjoined telegram, dated Canton, April 1,

Messrs. Theodore Belli, Sons, and Co. have
placed their affairs in the hands of Messrs. Cole-
man, Turquand, Young., and CO., the accountants,
who will prepare a statement and convene a meet-
ing as soon as possible.
The prospectus of the China and Japan (Coast
and River) Steam Navigation Company (limited)
was issuedyesterdayafternoon. The names attached
to this undertaking are highly respectable, and are
for the snout part identified with Eastern enter-
prise. Wo notice on the board, besides the com-
mercial names, that of the lion. T. C. Bruce,
brother to the Earl of Elgin. It is proposed tr
establish a regular and speedy communication by
steam along the coasts and in the rivers of China,
and ultimately to extend the company's ope-
rations so as to embrace the trade be-
tween China and Japan. It is contended that
the China junks and European sailing vessels
now employed in the trade will soon be at least
partially superseded. The capital is 300,000(., but
the first issue will be limited to 150,000!., in shares
of 10/ each, of which 2,500 will be reserved for
China. _ _ _

for the previous week, shows the following changes :

The increase of a million and a quarter in the
private securities proves the severity of the pres-
sure at the discount office on Wednesday. Never-
theless, both the public and private deposits having
largely increased, there is an addition to the re-
serve. The coin and bullion have been slightly
augmented.
The Gazette specie statement for the week end-
ing Wednesday last gives the following totals,
viz.:—lmports of gold, 272,5331. ; exports of gold,
184,9991. ; imports of silver, 78,:2951. ; exports of
silver, 187,7731.
