of yesterday

THE MONEY MARKET. •
(Fvm .the Daily. Hews City Article.)

SATURDAY EVENING.—A fresh advance of k per cent.
was followed, late in the afternoon, by a sudden relapse,
and Consols closed 18 per cent. lower than on Friday.
The movements of the Funds on Saturday, however,
afford little index to the oourse of affairs, either finan-
cial or political, as businessis confined within such nar-
row limits. Demand foi money slack. There were no
bullion operations at the Bank to-day.
(From the Times City Article.)

SATURDAY EVENING.—The increase of bullion shown
in the Bank returni-although not larger than was gene-
rally anticipated, caused Consols to open this morning
at a further advance of 4, but the market was less firm
at the close. The stagnation of business, both in Lon-
don and Paris, is more remarkable than any previous
autumn. The demand for money has been very
moderate.

THE DAY'S NEWS.

IT will be •seen by some further details of the
latest news from America, that another boundary
dispute has arisen between the United States and

this country. It has been evident for some time
that the Americans were looking with jealousy
upon our possession of British Columbia, since
it has become so valuable for its gold fields ;

and it is now pretended that, according to tLe

boundary treaty of 1846, the line of demarcation
between the British and American dominions
would_ give to the latter a larger portion of the
channel, in which lies St. Juan Island, than the

British authorities upon the, spot have admitted

By this new interpretation of the treaty, the
Americans claim St. Juan Island, where the com-

mander of a detachment of American soldiers has
The

effected the establishment of .a military post

governor of British Columbia and Vancouver's
Island, as in duty bound, has taken measures to

resist this assumption of authority ; and there is

home ground for ap'prehending that hostilities

may arise out of it

.--,-We-:we-te enabled -to announce, 'in: part of our
iinpres.sion of yesterday, that Lord Olive will now
shortly retire from the command of the Indian

army, and that he is to be succeeded by General

Sir Hugh H. Rose.

Constantinople has been thrown into a state of

commotion by

the discovery of a conspiracy to

assassinate the Sultan, in which some of the

troops are,said to be implicated. Xumerous

rests have taken place, and amongst them that of

no less a personage than the Pasha of Albania,
who is said to have been its chief abettor.

The London Builders' Strike is at length.realls

manlier entirely satisfactory to the masters,

any more than to the men. The former are get-
ting to work with new hands ; but they are said
to be very inferior to those who struck, the most
of whom still refuse to return until their whole
point is gained.

It is but a few weeks since we were called on,

as public journalists, to record-the sudden death

of one Member of our Town Council; and to-da3'

it becomes our duty once more to chronicle another

and similar visitation. In the present instance

a large body of our fellow-town'smen will recog-
nise, in the unexpectel death of Mr. Alderman

Chilton, a public bereavement of no ordinary
Mr. Chilton was an old member of

character

the Corporation, and in that capacity is well

munity, particularly in regard to financial ar-
rangements, his extensive practical knowledge
rendering him peculiarly useful in that depart-

meat of municipal business

The Calcutta Mail has arrived at Alexandria

and from the scanty details furnished by the tele-
graph, we learn that a bill had been introduced
in the Legislative Council to tax all trades and

professions in India, with the exception of the
land cultivators. The House' of Delhi has been
deprived of all titular distinctions and privileges

looked upon as complimentary. Nor does it

serve any humble but useful purpose, like the

salutary scratching rhich some optimist philo-
sophers have assigneti as the final cause of fleas.

"And yet, disliked by everybody-, detested by
" most people, and useful to nobody, it is so uni-
" versa' as to constitute the prevailing impression
" which all but a few highly spiritualized minds

" bring back with them from a foreign tour

Now, if instead of a foreign tour it were a home

—if it were a tour, for instance, of this very

town of Liverpool, to go no further,-

—such remarks

as these would be found to have quite' as

close an. application, upon the whole, as they bear
in reference to any- foreign land whatever. The

Tofibgraphy of Dirt is really quite as "curious a
