MONEY HARKE

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

No abatement of the recent activity displayed in
discount circles is perceptible this morning. Out
of doors the rate for first-class paper rules in many
cases even higher than at the Bank of England,
and the authorities are consequently experiencing
a very large demand for money.
A further sum of £68,000 in gold was taken in,
and £21,000 withdrawn from the Bank yesterday.

The prospectus has appeared of the Prince of
Wales Hotel Company, Upper Norwood, with a
capital of £lOO,OOO in shares of £lO each. The
directors,who are highly respectable, and possess for
their chairman Viscount Ranelagh, have made a
conditional purchase of some eligible property known
as the Mount, situated on Westow-hill. The mansion
and its ornamental grounds will remain intact, and
form an adjunct to the intended hotel structure.
By this arrangement a large amount of building
expenses will be avoided, and the proprietors en-
abled to commence business at an earlier day. The
grounds cover nearly 10 acres in extent, are mostly
freehold, only a very small portion of the land being
leasehold, but which has nevertheless been secured
at a nominal cost for a lengthened period. The new
establishment will afford ample accommodation,
containing about 250 apartments, with suites for
families. One other feature which this undertak-
ing possesses is that no promoters' fees or any pre-
liminary expenses are to be paid. A considerable
portion of the required capital is understood to have
been privately subscribed.

The last week's railway receipts ascertained up
to this day are in round figures as under :

1863. 1862.

North Eastern 58,710 65.344

The English Stock Market has not undergone
any change this morning. Affairs remain in a very
quiescent state with little business in progress.

Continuing at 93! for money, and at 931 for the
account. The New Three per Cent. Annuities are
91; 921-; the Reduced, 91; ; and the New 24 per
Cents., 77; Exchequer Bills are firm at par; Bank
stock for the Account is 238; and the India 5 per

bian do., 1 to 11 prem.

have been very limited, and prices have not varied
to any important extent. Great Westerns have

chester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, Os.

LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

BANKRUPTCY COURT.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.)
The vacation, as it is termed, having closed yesterday,
his Honour now sat to hear some of the very numerous cases
in arrear for last examination and discharge, but in a num-
ber of cases their accounts had not been filed, no doubt
through the uncertainty when the meetings for discharge
would be held, as none had been heard during the vacation,
except those belonging to the Court of the Commission
sitting on the day, consequently there is a great arrear of
cases.
39k I The first case called was

W. D. APPLEYARD.

This bankrupt was a grocer at Foots Cray. This was a
meeting for last examination.
Mr. W. R. Buchanan was for the bankrupt.
Mr.W. Sargood said that the accounts had not been filed,
but the cause was the illness of the bankrupt's wife.
His Honour said that the bankrupt must pay the costs.
Mr. Sargood said he was prepared to do so now.
_ _

Hie Honour said that an adjournment might be Taken,
but it had better be fixed for a day after Mr. Commis-
sioner Fane's return, as Mr. Commissioner Holroyd
would, on his return, not take Mr. Fane's cases.
The adjournment was taken accordingly,
IN RE FEARNLEY.

This bankrupt was a coffee-house keeper at Camden-
town, and this was a meeting for last examination and dis-
charge.
Mr. Bazley applied for an adjournment, no accounts
having been filed.
His Honour said it must be on the same terms as the last,
the payment of costs, and the case would therefore be
adjourned sine die, with liberty to apply.
Mr. Bazley said the bankrupt was prepared to pay the
costs into court, and asked for a day to be fixed, or it would
be necessary to readvertise.
His Honour said on the costs being paid he would fix
a day. He did not like risking costs in such cases.
