The Great Western Company of Canada to--day
declared a dividend at the rate of three per cent.
per annum.
The Royal Charter, off Cork to-day, has on freight
gold valued at 104,000/.
The Paris Bourse rose one-fourth per cent. to day.
A full demand for Money was yesterday experien-
ced ; terms do not at present exceed the Bank
minimum of 21 per cent. The brokers were free
borrowers, both at
,the Bank of England and at the
joint-stock banks rand at some of the latter 21
per cent. was paid for the use of 'the funds from day
to day. This circumstance shows that the inquiry
is on the increase, and that up to the actual pay-
ment of the dividends there will be no diminution in
the requirements. The influx of capital into the
open market through, this distribution will not
produce any great effect, especially as there is the
prospect of the immediate negotiation of the Indian
and RaSsian loans.

The English Funds continue to show uninterrupted
heaviness. In the face of the forthcoming India and
Russian loans, and of the drain of silver, few persons
contemplate the possibility, under any circumstances, of an
early return of buoyancy. An opinion seems to be enter-
tained, from the proportion of long dated paper now
offering, that after the momentary increase of ease that
may arise from the payment of the dividends, the tendency
will be towards an increase in rates. In the Foreign
Exchanges this afternoon there was an adVance in the rates
on Vienna and Trieste. The London and North-Western
Railway Company have notified that they are ready to
renew their bonds falling due at 4 per cent., for five, seven,
or ten years. The American ship Florence, of 1,000 tons,
has arrived in the London Docks, from Japan, with a cargo
consisting chiefly of vegetable wax. This is the first cargo
from that country. Times City Article, Tuesday Evening.
The announcement of the impending dissolution of
Parliament has been unfavourably received in the city, as
involving an interruption to business. The consequence has
been a fresh decline of about 4 per cent. in the Funds. The
continuance of investments tended to support the market.
In the other departments of the Stock ',Exchange heaviness
prevailed. The demand for money in commercial channels
continues active, and little or no business is done below 2
per cent. The punctuality with which the heavy payments
matured yesterday have been met, is regarded with much
satisfaction, as proving the soundness of the internal trade
of the country. A further sum of £65,000 in gold, making
a total of £250;000 since the date of the last return, was
this day withdrawn from the Bank for exportation. An
aggregate of £1,127,000 in Australian gold is known to be
on the way to this country, of which about £413,000 is now
due or nearly due. The steamer Parana, from the West
Indies and Mexico, has brought £129,800 in gold, and
n 12,200 in silver. At Vienna, yesterday, the Austrian
Funds fell I to 1 per cent., and the Exchange on London
rose 13,-, per cent. At Frakfort and Amsterdam there was
also a fall of 1 per cent. in the Austrian metaliques,—Da ily

BRIGHT AND " THE " BUTTERMAN
(Air—" Villains and his Dinah.")
Oh !Us of a famed merchant who in Liverpool-does dwell,
Who supply folks with Butter who wan it to sell ;
Isis name it is Kelly, 'you scarce need be told,
Whose Butter is worth all your silver r.nd gold,
Singin' —Butter-li—Butter-11—Butter-li-day.
As Kelly was weighing out Butter one day,
In walks REFORM BRIGHT, and to him did say,
Come leave your shop Kelly, and with me away,
And I'll find you a place with no Work and good pay.
Singur'—Butter-li—Butter-li—Butter-li-duy.
Ohl no, my bravo BRIGHT, that wont suit my mind,
" For to" cut my " old place" I do trot feel inclined,
So to you the good pay I will gladly make o'er,
To serve England-with Butter a year or two more,
Singin'—Butter-h—Butter-li—Butter-li-day.
That's a goodnoble Relly—then John Bright replied,
You're a Brick," my " old buck," and not to be-bribed;
So, in order your Butter to pw. to.the test,
Send =Weekly, henceforward a ton of 'your best.
Singin'— butter-li—Butter-Z—Butter-li-day.
MORAL.
Now. all you who wank butter, you know,where to buy it,
So never don't by no means be persuaded to "shy" it,
And as all want full, value for their "tin," and quite right,
Think of Kelly tknßUtterman, and Reformer John Bright
