THE POLISH INSURRECTION..

BRESLAU, Jan. 21.—The Gazette says—" A fresh
convoy of 500 exiles left Warsaw yesterday by
railway. A new rescript orders that nobles and
ether citizens must provide themselves with a ape-
oial permission when they wish to go to a distanc3
of more than 12 miles from their homes. The pea
sants and Jaws are subjected to the same formality,
however small the distance may be. The Russians
have hanged four insurgents at Kocklawek. Among
hem was a German named Ludke.',

Alliance Bank of London and Liverpool

MEETING THIS DAY.

The half-yearly meeting of the Alliance Bank of London
and Liverpool took place this day, Mr. .1. N. Daniel in the
chair. The report, which was unanimously adopted, stated
the accounts showed an available balance for the half-year
ending the 31st December last, of £6,689 15s. 5d.,
which with the addition of £243 16s. 11d., brought
forward from the previous half-year, made a total
of £26,933 12s. 4d. The directors proposed to apply
£16,000 in paying a dividend at the rate of 6 per cent, per
annum, for the half-year, free of income tax, which gives
15s. per share on the original 20,000 shares, and 2s. per
share on the new shares issued in July last, and after
placing £2,000 to the reserve fund there will remain £8,933
12s. 4d. to be carried forward to the next account. The
directors had to report that the whole of :he new capital of
£1,000,000, in 10,000 shares resolved in July last, to be
issued at a premium of £5 per share, had been subscribed
for, and was proposed that the £50,000 received for the pro-
miums be tranferred to the reserve fund.

The CHAIRMAN stated that, as would be seen by tha
large balance carried over to the next account, the directors
could have increased the dividend, but they considered it
prudent to build up a reserve fund before allowing the share-
holders to participate fully in the profits. The remunera-
tion of the directors was fixed at £4,000 a year, and that of
the auditors at £5O each. According to a notice, it was re-
solved to change the name of the company, calling it in
future "The Alliance Bank Limited," and omitting the
words "of London and Liverpool." The dividend warrants
were made payable on and after the 2Sth inst.

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.

A very moderate supply of home-grown wheat was re.
ceived at our market to-day, and several samples came to
hand in poor condition. The demand for all qualities was
in a sluggish state, at Monday's fall in the currency. With
foreign wheat, the market was fairly supplied. The inquiry
for all descriptions was, however, much restricted, yet no
quotable change took place in prices, compared with
Monday.
Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request, on former
terms. _ _

The supply of barley on sale was tolerably large. Good
and fine malting qualities were firm in price ; otherwise,
the trade ruled heavy, at late rates.

Most kinds of malt sold slowly, at late currencies.
The supply of oats on sale was moderately extensive.
Generally speaking, the trade was quiet, but at full prices,
for good and fine corn.
For beans and peas there was a moderate inquiry, and
the quotations were steadily supported.
The trade for flour was in a sluggish state, at about
stationary prices. The market was well supplied with
English and foreign descriptions.
