ATTNYPT TO LAUNCH THE Wadi

148110.11.—(rare DAY.)

At the isoment we were going to press, the most it
active 'intim* were being made to launch the sat
giant ship with prospect of a partial sun- eh.
ems. Ileum Brunel and Yates were on the 1.2.
groand at an early boar, and strong gangs of ;
experienced man were stationed at every windlass. is
An important alteration bad been made In the tree- .14
the arrangements ; the chains which, at the former 11,
launch, were rove round blocks placed on barges in S.
the middle of the river, being now secured to the K.
Admiralty moorings an the opposite aide, and the x.
cranks by which they worked being placed on Sit
shore, so as to avoid all risk of panic on the part to
of the men. The prooladiage were much delayed at•
by a collier brig, which during the night es„
dropped anchor right across the ways. In any case et.
the vessel cannot Boat until the 2nd of December, ir
so that there can be only a partial launch to-day. :4

The funds to day are very quiet, but firm. Prima

Speculative operations aro deterred, pending

before them an application for assistance from a
large firm.
Consols are quiet, at 89,1 to for the

,itying back a portion for the account. Con-
sidering the magnitude of the recent bond fide
sales on banking account, the firmness of
the funds exciter surprise in many quarters.
It most be remembered, however, that the greater

the distrust in canireercial and monitory circles,
the more tempting is the security of the British
Three per Cents. The public continue to invest
steadily, as is always the case when the price of
Consols. is below 90. The approach of the dividend
period also tends to support the market. A rumour
that the providing of money for the service of the
Indian government will not form one of the first
duties of parliament, on its approaching meeting,
likewise exercises a favourable influence.

The aspect of the money market continue very
unsatisfactory. The numerous cues of embarrass-
ment which are now nparted from day to day tend
to increase the caution of discounter.. Great diffi-
culty is consequently experienced in procuring ac-
commodation, and we hear of many instances of
cruel diaappointmennt owing to the extent to which
resources previously confidently relied upon have
been suddenly rendered unavailable. At the lame
time, owing to the caution evinced " out of doors"
the demand is thrown more than ever upon the
Bank of England.
The foreign bullion movement presents several
bnportant and satisfactory features. The Bank of
England yesterday purchased 156,0001. in newly
imported gold, viz., 92,0001. in bar., ex the Avon,
from Australia, and 53,0001. in Russian coin, ex the
Brenda, from St. Petersburg. Some further consi-
derable amounts of gold are likewise expected from
the United States, policies of insurance to some ex-
tent having been opened. Meanwhile, as shown
below, the drain of silver to the East has dwindled
to comparatively small proportions.
Several fresh mercantile failures are mummy

Tha moat important was that of Mews. C.
Bieeeking and 800, an old-mtablished house engaged
in trade with Bweden, the Mediterranean,l'Mto
Rico, and other parts. The liabilities may perhaps
range from 300,0001. to 400,0001. Subjoined is the

Messrs. Clorruren, Hiiffel, aad Co., foreign mer-
chants, chiefly in the American trade, have also
stopped. In this case the amount of liabilities has
not yet been ascertained. The circular issued is as
follows :

1, Rays' Exchange-buildings, London, Nov. 18.
With deep regret we have to acquaint you that we are
compelled to =spa laymen; and have in oonmequence to
request the indulgence of our creditors. Heavy cash ad-
vances to parties in the United States who are at
unable to meet their engagements, the effect of recent Coat
in this country in suddenly rendering unavailablereteithancee
already received, together with the uncertainty which exists
respecting future remittances, are the causes which have
neesesitated the Map on our part. Our books are placed in
the heads of Messrs. Outlier, Ball, and Co., with instructions
to investigate our affairs and to prepare • fall statement of
than for submieinn to our creditors, at a meeting to be con-
vened with the least poseible delay, and of which due notice
will be given.—We remain your most obedient 'arm*
(Sigma) Ciozaissix, Harm., sad Co.

The next name is that of Mesas. Brocklesbf and
Wessels, in the corn and seed trade. It is thought
that the liabilities in this case will not exceed
70,0001. They address their creditors as follows:

3111.007.47011ri, Nov. 18, 1887.
Gentlemen,—We deeply regret being obliged to announce 1
to you, that owing to the depressod state of the corn trade,
and the Inman unaatisfactory condition of the money
market, we have been compelled to suspend payment.
A statement of oar affairs, which is now being prepared by
Mr. O. H. Jay, of Old Jewry-chambers, will be submitted to 1
you at an early period, and in the meantime we have to
solicit your kind indulgence.—We are, gentlemen, your ;
obedient servants, BILOCILLUBT and Wgesam.
Several other suspensions have taken place, but
are of minor importance.
Annexed is the circular sent out yesterday by
Mean. Hoare, Buxton, and Co. The liabilities of
this house are considerable :
23 Old Broad-street, London, No. 18, 1857.
Gentletrink—The unprecedented state of the money mar-
ket having thrown unexpected liabilities upon us, the result
of which we ire at prevent unable to estimate, we have been
under the painful necessity of suspending our payments.
Our dependencies ere principally with Sweden; and, relying
on the good faith and stability of our correspondents there
which has hitherto ettarecterised their commercial transac-
tions with no, we trust that we shell be enabled to discharge
our liabilities Ina comparatively limited period. We have
placed our affairs in the hands of Mears. J. B. Coleman and
Co, the accountants, and propoes to have meeting of our
creditors at the earliest day pesible. In the mealtime we
shall adopt measures for the most speedy realisation of assets
for division, in order to obviate as fa as possible the incon-
venience which our suspension may have caused. The Cal-
cutta and Manchester firms of Hoare, Miller, end Co., are in
no way affected by our suspension.—Yours very obediently,
Hour, BtxtoN, and Co.
Messrs. Edwards and Matthie, in the East India
and colonial produce trade, who also suspended with
liabilities to a considerable amount, address their
creditors as follows :
(Copy.)
17, Mincing-lane, Nov. 18, 1857.
It is with feelings of deep regret that we have felt it neces-
sary to suspend uur payments. The failure of houses in this
country connected with the United States. combined with the
serious fall in produce, has caused us to take this step et once
in order to avoid detriment to our estate.
We have placed our affairs in the hands of Mame. Tor-
quand, Young, and C 0.., who will call a meeting of our Cre-
am as soca ea practicable.
La the meantime we have made arrangements for transfer-
