IYIONE y MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

There is a moderate business in th© general dis.
mount market, and the rates continuo firm.

About £5,000 in gold was taken into the Bank
yesterday.

A highly important undertaking has been an-
nounced to-day under the auspices of the General
Credit and Finance Company of London. It is
entitled the Land Mortgage Bank of India
(Ct Edit Foncier Indien), with a nominal capital of
£2,000,000 in shares of £2O each. The company
will grant loans on land, either for fixed periods, or
upon tenures that will extinguish the debt during
the currency of the mortgage, or the paymentiof an
annual instalment on account of the principal, in
addition to the annual interest, thus conferring on
the borrowers the benefit of an eventual liquida-
tion of their debts. There is an extensive field
for the operations of the company; and as the
directors, who are sufficiently influential to cam-
_
mand ample support in any direction they require,
will issue debentures for fixed periods, the resources
at their command for enlarged enterprise will be in
a measure unlimited. The board comprises Mr. S.
Laing, Colonel Balfour, C. 8., Mr. H. L. Bischoff.
sheim, Hon.. W. S. Fitzwilliam, Sir J. P. Grant,
K.C.8., P. Northall Laurie, and others. The re-
markable success of the French Credit Foncier is
referred to in illustration of the system it is pro-
posed to adopt, and the prospectus, which appears
in another column, gives ample information with
regard to the details of the project. It is under-
stood that a large proportion of the capital has been
already arranged for, and the undertaking has met
with a very favourable reception, the shares being
3 to 31 prem.

Two O'CLOCK.

At Paris this day, according to Mr. Renter's tele
gram, the 3 per Cent. Reates were at 67f. 75c.
—Better.

The directors of the Port Philip and Colonial
Gold Mining Company have received, per telegram
from Melbourne via Suez, the results of the opera-
tions for the month of July, and of the quantity of
quartz crushed during the four weeks in August in
anticipation of the Australian mails. Quantity of
quartz crushed, 3,132 tons, yielding 8 dwts. 22 grs.
per ton ; receipts, £2,400 ; ordinary expenditure,
£B5O ;on account new stamps, £6GO ; showing a
profit of £B9O. The amount of the remittance is
£1,250. Quantity of quartz crushed in the four
weeks in August, 3,150 tons, yielding 10 dwts. 19
grs. per ton.

Speculative business has continued very quiet in
the Market for Public Securities, which are also but
little resorted to by the investing classes. An
extreme degree of dulness is consequently
experienced. Consols remain flat at 931 .7, for money
and account. The French Rentes are telegraphed
at a alight advance, but it has had no effect on the
markets here. The New 3 per Cent. and the
Reduced Annuities are 911- 92 ; India Bonds,
108; tb ; Enfaced 5 per Cent., 1171, and Ex-
chequer Bills are marked par, 33. prem.; Bauk
stock for account has been dealt in at 237.

Although the movements in the Foreign Market
have not been extensive, prices have generally tended
downwards. Turkish 6 per Cents., 1858, are 70 ;
do., 1862, 70-1-, 71; do., Consolides, 53/ ; Mexi-
can, 44/ e ; Greek, 371 ce ; do., Coupons, 181 11;

481 491 ; Russian, 93/ ; Equador, 16/ ; the Confe-
derate Loan, 25 23 dis.; and the Columbian Loan,
1, dis.
Business in the Railway Market has been rather
inactive, but in one or two instances there has been
a slight advance. London, Chatham, and Dover
have improved £2 10a., and Great Eastern and
Great Western 55.; South Eastern have declined
10s., and Metropolitan £l.
The Foreign and Colonial linen continue in
moderate request, without any material change to
note in values.

Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have been dealt
in to some extent, and in several instances a slight
decline has taken place in prices.
The Land Mortgage Bank of India shares are
31- I prem.

LORD LYNDHURST, we are happy to say, is better
to-day.
THE FOUNTAINS IN TRAFALGAR SQUARE are to
disappear, and something worthy of the spot erected in
their place.
THE AUSTRIANS IN LONDON have sent an address
to their Emperor, thanking him earnestly for the reforms
he has granted.

ST. JAMES'S HALL—This evening, Mr. John
Caulfield, for• many years a member of the Hay-
market company, and now chairman at the Oxford Music
Hall, takes his benefit at the above hall. Mr. Caulfield
has recently been ill, and many professional friends have
rallied round him in response to his appeal for their co-
operation. A first rate list of vocal, instrumental, and
miscellaneous talent is announced for the occasion.

THE SKELETON OF A WHALE caught at Cadg-
with, has been cleaned and forwarded to London, having
been sold to the Crystal Palace Company to be set up in
their grounds.

It was announced yesterday that Mr. George
Thomson, of the firm of Catto, Thomson, and Co.,
shipowners, of Aberdeen, had absconded, leaving
defalcations to a very large extent. The firm are
stated to be perfectly solvent, and will consequently
carry on their business as usual.

Daring the last few days there has been very
little animation exhibited in the Foreign and
Colonial Produce Markets. The dealings in tea
have been deferred until the public sales, which
commence to-day. Sugars have been, however, in
better demand, and good qualities have advanced
6d. to is. per cwt. Coffee, rice, fruit, and spices
have remained at about previous rates. In the
Tallow Market there has been a more cheerful tone,
and prices have shown an upward movement for
both present and forward delivery.

CONFEDERATE REVIEW.—The Southern papers
bring an account of a review of General Ewell's
corps by Gen. Lee. A correspondent of the Petersburgh
Express gives a description of the scene :—" The bugle
soon announced all in readiness, and Gen. Lee soon came
riding up, and now the cavalcade, composed of Gen. Lee
and staff, Gen. Ewell and staff, and the division commanders
started off at a swift gallop to the right of the first division,
and soon they are seen coming down the front of the line,
each brigade coming to a • present' as the cavalcade passed,
and as they swept by us the strains of music were swelling
up along the line. They passed around the left of the line,
dashed back to the right of the second division, and re •
viewed the second and third divisions in the same manner
as the first, and once more came back to the original start-
ing point, the riders and horses both looking much
jaded, the distance they had gone so swiftly over being
fully nine miles. General Leo immediately dismounted
and came to his carriage, which was only a few steps dis-
tant, and in which were two of his daughters, and in a few
minutes he called to his side many of his generals, among
them Generals Ewell, Longstreet, Hill, Stuart, Wilcox, and
others, and gave his daughters an introduction to them. The
Generals now took a stand just by the flag, and the troops
commenced passing in review before Gen. Lee, and as each
flag, in passing, would be lowered as a salute, the General,
in response, would take his hat off. And now I got a close
view
of the men composing this gallant corps. here passed
those men who had so often followed General Jackson in
his numerous battles, and who had won for him that re-
nown which will live through ages to come ; and now passes
Jackson's old division, at present commanded by the gallant
General Johnston, and here comes the' Stonewall brigade,'
which was composed of veteran-looking soldiers. Many of
the banners of the corps bore evidence of having been oft
borne to the broza amid the whistling of bullets, and all of
them contained some dozen or 15 names to mark the diffe-
rent battles the respective regiments had distinguished
themselves in. Onegiment, tawsasncd faorriceodlobuyrs b,

mentioned to General Johnstone, he took the colours and
presented them to the young man in person as a reward for
the noble patriotism which prompted him to such an act of
self-denial and love of country. The review being now
over, the crowd of spectators dispersed, and the troops, with
three hearty cheers for General Lee, commenced wending
their way back to their camps."
