CITY NEWS—SATURDAY.
Tan shipments of silver by the next two India
steamers will again be large, but the principal part
of the amount has already been paid for, and the
suPPIY of £486,000 by the Tasmania, coupled with
the X 300,000 in hills of exchange to be tendered
for at the Bank on Wednesday, will probably satisfy
any further immediate demand for means of re-
mittance.
The advices from Venezuela state that General
Ilatz bad signed the decree fully confirming the
nentract for the loan recently negotiated by Messrs.
Boring. The 55 per cent of the Customs belong-
ing to the bondholders is to be collected separately,
and to be paid in hard cash to the agents of Messrs.
Being immediately on collection. The raising of
blockade of Maracaibo would take place imme-
diately,
the Government having satisfactorily ad-
justed the question which necessitated that measure.
"rnmercial matters were improving daily under
the influence of the increased stability of the Go-
vernment and the more plentiful supply of money.
hThe range of Consols, which was 1 per cent. in
ctuber has been only three-quarters per cent. in
e month just ended, the lowest and highest prices
bu'ling been 931 and 94. The price at the corn-
uleneement was 9312., and this evening it was 93Z,
80 that, reckoning a quarter per cent. for accrued
dividend, the operations of the month have resulted
10 establishing only a fractional advance. On the
Paris Bourse there has been a fall since the cora-
megeeenent of November of more than three-quar-
per cent.
Considering that the Exhibition traffic is now
entirely ended, the railway receipts for the week
nnlSaturday last were very satisfactory, since
show an increase of about 3'4 per cent., while the
been in the mileage during the 12 months has
be,e; not

CURIOUS CASE.-BANFIELD V. WALTERS.
This was a judgment summons, plaintiff and defendant
being both employed in the Times office.

Plaintiff's agent (also employed in the office) said this
was the balance of a loan. They had a kind of loan society
amongst the men. (Laughter.)
His Honour—And does Mr. Macdonald know of the
existence of this kind of thing ?
Witness—lt is quite a friendly affair.
His Honour—lt would not be a very friendly thing to
lock this man up in Whitecross-street. Is your society
enrolled ?

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.
There was only a moderate supply of foreign stook on
offer in to-day's market, and its general quality was but
middling. The demand ruled very inactive, at about pre-
vious quotations.

Witness—No. We subscribe our money and lend it out
to each other. Here is the promissory note.
His Honour found that the note was informal under the
statute of Geo. 111., and asked what interest was cbarged.
Witness—This society was got up amongst the men in
order to check the enormous rate of interest charged by
outside societies. We charge Is. per week in the pound.
Mr. Buchanan (amicus causev)—Only 60 per cent.
Defendant—And they charge ls. for £1 for only one
week. (Laughter.)

From our own grazing districts the receipts of beasts,
fresh up: were rather limited for the time of year, but the
weight and condition of most breeds were tolerably good.
There was a fair average number of beasts in the market
both from Ireland and Scotland. The attendance of buyers
was far from numerous ; and the beef trade ruled inactive.

Owing to the falling off in the arrivals from abroad the
show of sheep was rather limited. The Downs and half-
breds appeared in good saleab'e condition; but most other
breeds exhibited a want of quality. Newgate and Leaden-
hall markets, being heavily supplied, the mutton trade was
by no means brisk; nevertheless, a fair clearance was
effected, at previous rates. The top figure for mutton was
ss. Bd. per 81bs.
Calves were in moderate supply, and slow request, on
former terms. The highest quotation was 4s. per 81bs.
Prime small pigs were firm in price; but large hogs were
very dull, at late rates.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire we received 2,600 short-horns, dco. ; from other parts
of England, 800 various breeds; from Scotland, 110 Scots
and crosses; and from Ireland, 700 oxen and heifers.

Mr. Buchanan-240 per cent. (Laughter.)
His Honour—How many borrowers have you ?
Witness—About 60, and 30 lenders or capitalists. (Great
laughter.) We lend to each other. Banfield was treasurer.
Defendant—He is not now. He backed out of it because
he didn't like it. (Laughter.)
His Honour—And besides Banfield cannot sue as trea-
surer of an unenrolled society. As a Friendly Loan So-
ciety you should be enrolled under the 3d and 4th Vic., and
as you are not Banfield cannot sue as your officer. You
ought to sue in the name of the 30 capitalists, (Laughter.)
There are two fatal objections in this case. One is the in-
formality of the note, and the other the absence of the other
29 capitalists. I do not see,how you can be hurt by losing
this, as your society is like a-man lending one pocket money
out of the other. If defendant goes back to the times and
tells the borrowers the capital will be exhausted. I cannot
help you, and there will be no order.
The parties then withdrew.

SERIOUS TIR' IN MANCRESIER-LOSS
OF THREE LIVES.

Saturday morning, about a quarter to two o'clock, a fire
was discovered in the shop occupied by Mr. George Pates,
hosier, 131, Stretford New-road, Hulme. On discovering
the fire the police officers on duty gave the alarm, and im-
mediately despatched two engines and a body of firemen.
In the meantime the police officers aroused the inmates,
who were in bed at the time. These were Mr. and Mrs.
Pates and two children—Frederick Pates, aged nine years,
and Amelia Pates, aged seven years. Mrs. Pates hearing
the alarm of fire proceeded to the back bed-room window
on the second storey, and called for help. Police Sergeant
Pearson and two neighbours went to the back of the house,
and got on the yard wall, and thence to the roof of a shed
in the yard belonging to Mr. Pember. Here there were
a number of long planks, one of which they put up to the
window where Mrs. Pates was standing. Mrs. Pates, in
getting on the plank, fell into the yard, and was taken up.
insensible. She was attended by Messrs. Fisher and Pet-
tinger, surgeons, who found that she had sustained a frac-
ture of three or four ribs, and a concussion of the spine. She
died shortly after noon. The boy slept in a room at the
back of the house, which is approached by a staircase from
the yard. The room does not communicate by any doors
with any other part of the house, In coming down stairs
he fell and knocked nine of his front teeth out, but other-
wise escaped uninjured. When the fire brigade arrived the
whole building was in flames from the basement to the roof.
Two jets were attached to the mains, and there being a good
supply of water, the fire was soon subdued. The utmost
consternation prevailed throughout the whole of this time
consequent on the belief that Mr. Pates and the other child
were in the burning building. The last that was seen of
the unfortunate man was by his wife, who states that on
the alarm being given he ran up the stairs to the front room,
where the little girl was sleeping, but the smoke and flames
separated her (Mrs. Pates) from him, and she neither saw
him nor the child afterwards. The whole of the building
and its contents were totally destroyed. A careful search
was made in the cellar and in all the rooms to which access
could be obtained, but no traces were found of the missing
ones, until about noon, when a fire-escape was brought to
the spot, and near the doorway of the child's bed-room the
body of the man was found, with the body of the child
clasped in his arms. The unfortunate man had perished
in the attempt to save his daughter. The bodies presented
a frightful spectacle. The fire is supposed to have originated
in the shop.
