COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
A firmer tone now pervades the general discount
market, which is temporarily influenced by the
necessary provision for the bills falling due to-mor-
row, the 4th of the month. Owing to the aug-
mented demand the public are now enabled to nego-
tiate their paper at the Bank of England on terms
nearly as favourable as those required in other
quarters.

A further sum of £24,030 in gold was taken into
the Bank on Saturday.
The arrivals of specie announced to-day comprise
£42.471 by the Asia, from New York, £150,074 by
the Vlagdalena, from the Brazils.
The amount of specie to be taken out by the
Poonah, which leaves to-morrow for the East, is
£15,074.
The accounts from the manufacturing districts,
for the past week, have been generally satisfactory.
A fair amount of business has been done in both
cloths and yarns at Manchester, while increased
activity has prevailed in the woollen districts of
Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield. In the hosiery
and lace department of Leicester and Nottingham E
there has been more animation, while a more cheer-
ful tone has prevailed in the hardware districts of
Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton.

At Paris, this day, according to Mr. Renter's
telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes were 66f. 90c.

pose of confirming the resolutions passed at the last

At the fifth ordinary general meeting of the At.
lantic Royal Mail Steam Navigation Company,
held to-day, Mr. John Chapman in the chair, the ,
report stated that the renewal of the contract be-
tween her Majesty's Government and the company
had been confirmed by the House of Commons, for
the performance of the postal service between
Galway and North America, for the annual subsidy
of £78,000, the 18th inst. being fixed as the day for
the first ship to leave Gal way.

The heat has returned in Paris, Yesterday at
noon M. Chevallier's thermometer marked 23 4-10ths C.
(74 F.) ; at two o'clock, 24 8-ths C. (76 2-d F.) and at four,
26 5-10ths C. (80 F.)

M. Sarcey, the theatrical critic of the Opinion
Nationale, and M. Gueroult, the director of
that journal, yesterday appeared before the Correc•
tional Tribunal, charged with having published
an unfaithful and defamatory report of a recent
trial in which they were condemned for a libel
on Mlle. Pauline de Melin, an actress at the Odeon. The
Tribunal declared the charge proved, and condemned each
of them to a fine of 100 fr., conjointly to pay 200 fr. damages
to the complainant. They were also condemned to pay all
expenses, and to insert the present judgment in the Opinion
Nationale within a fortnight.
