The Bank of France has lowered the minimum
r ,te of diseount for commercial bills from six per
rout, at which it has stood since 25th September,
1856, to five-and-a-half per cent. The rates for
•advances upon stock and shares remains, however,
at six per cent. This decision has been received
with disappointment by the speculators, and has
led io a decided fall on the Bourse ; neverthe-
less, most persons of judgment will be inclined
to r' joice at finding that the new governor, M. de
Gertnany, has the courage to inaugurate his acces-
sion to office by thus disregarding interested rep-
resentations and clamour. In some quarters,
however, it is whispered that the council, in
reducing the rate at all, has been subjected to

toiluence from a high quarter. The 'tank of
France has rarely announced an alteration of less
than 1 per cent in its rates, and the adoption of a
species of half measure at the present moment is
considered to give some colour to the suspicion
that a political object is•in view.

or 1855.
