MONEY MARKET.

WIDICEIDAT EVeNING.
The view we took yesterday of the appearances of
the *tut market, and the inference we drew, that
the upward tendency of the English funds would be
followed by a further advance, have been fully borne
out by the operations on the Stock Exchange to-day,
which were also carried out to a considerable extent.
The opening price for Consols was 971 to!, ex divi-
dend, both for money and the 16th inst., being an ad-
vance of 1 since yesterday. For cash they continued '
stationary to the close, being last marked 971; whilst 22‘
for the opening they advareed and retrograded be- s,;
tween the first and 971 to 1, the closing price. A 81
good deal of busicess was done in the Three
per Cent. Reduced, at an advance of 1
per cent. over yesterday's highest mark. This wa4 50
-caused by purchases to some extent by the broker 20
who usually manages the business of the government 131
in this department. The price of this stock varied su
from 97$ to I, but the greater part of the transac- to
tiers, and the last also,were marked at 971. The New irt,
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. were done to some sal
extent also, and variously, from 991 to 100, the latter 174
being the last price. et.
According to the official returns of the operations is
of the banks of Brussels, during the fortnight ending 51°31
the Is Lag., the total amount of notes in circulation so
in that city on the 31st Dee., sou 48,916,995 francs, 23
of which 36,368,995 francs were issued by the " So- It.
ciete Generale," and 10,558,000 francs by the Bunk st:
of Belgium. The amount of the discounts effected dur tH
-
ing the fortnight by the three discount establishments 65
was 6,833,272 francs, apportioned ss follows : Cen- 50
teal Decount office, 445,218 f. ; " Soc'ete Oenersle," ss
2,617,025 f. ; Bank of Belgium, 3,771,029 f.
The number of emigrants who left the port of An- ts,
twerp during the past year was 10,260 persons, in 61 20
vessels, of whom 9,154 persons were bound to New E
York, and 1,106 to New Orleans. In 1848 the num sl
-
ber was 11,073 emigrants, and 66 vessels. 25
During 1819, 203 emigrast yowls, conveying t,
28,629 passengers, sailed from Bremen. Of this to

NEWSPAPER MOVEMENTS.—Whitt several of the
protectionist papers in the provinces complain of want of
support, and others have stopped altogether, the free-trade
journals 'generally speak with confidence of their present
condition and future prospects, and some have enlarged their
pages. At Bristol, on Saturday, a new liberal paper was
started, under the title of the Bristol EZlMitler, to advocate
financial reform, extension of the suffrage, the ballot, separa-
Din of church and state, abolitton of taxes on knowledge,
and other reforms.
SUDDEN DEATEI.—FALMOUTII, JAN. B.—This af-
ternoon, Commander William Crook, R.N., of January 15,
1846, was taking horse exercise on the Penryn.road, near
Bayer's Cellars, and, finding himself unwell, dismounted,
and requested a little girl who was near to hold his hone.
Ste had scarcely taken the bridle, before he staggered, and
was assisted by some powers-by towards the hedge, when he
almost instantaneously died. A surgeon was in immediate
atti ',dance, but to no purpose. The deceased was for many
yeses a commander of her Majesty's packets on this station.
He had previously been attacked with apoplectic fits.
ATTEMPTED MURDER NEAR DRURY-LANE.—On
Tuesday night a case of the ass of the knife in passion took
place in the neighbourhood of Drury-lane. Two tailors, one
of them that and dumb, had been engaged at work, and from
some unknown cause Kseliair, the dumb man, elhthited
f. clings of anger towards the other, whose
. name is Levy. A
act Ms ensued between them, when Keeling took from one
of his pockets a painter's putty knife, and aimed at Levy's
throat. The knits entered the right side of the jugular
vein, and caused a frightful gash. An alarm was raised,
and after some difficulty Keeling was secured, and taken to
Bow-street Wiles, when Mr. Henry remanded him. The
prosecutor was conveyed to King's College Hospital, in a
very_precarious state.
MYSTERIOUS CASES AT LYNN.—An officer of tho
Metropolitan Detective Force has, in consequence of a com-
munication with the Secretary of State, gone to Lynn for the
purpose of making 'thorough invest,gatiox of the whole cir-
cumstances connected with the disappearance of the drover
Kirk aid of Bell. From the shortness of the time which
has elapsed since kis arrival in that town, nothing material
has yet been elicited ,• but there is every reason to believe
that a third individual has, it is said, lately disappeered in a
no less numerical manner.
