The principal characteristic of those returns is
the large increase in the discount accommodation,
namely 82 millions, of which 48 are in Paris and 34
in the provinces. Such an amount of money
advanced on commercial bills would seem to imply
a very considerable revival in general business.
The metallic reserve has declined 461 millions,
nearly the whole diminution taking place in the
branch-banks, as the falling off in Paris is only
half a million. The advances on bullion show a
reduction of 51 millions, those on railway securities
an increase of 9 millions, and those on French rente
also an augmentation of 9 millions. On the side of
the liabilities, the notes in circulation present an
augmentation of 411 millions. The account-current
of the Treasury has fallen off 7 millions ; private
accounts-current have advanced 121 millions in
Paris and declined of a million in the depart-
ments. The whole amount of the metallic reserve
at present is 2951 millions to 8381 millions of notes
in circulation.

IMPORTANT LIFEBOAT SERVICES.

BUDE HAVEN, FRIDA.T NIGHT.

This morning intelligence was received that a vessel
was dismasted and drifting on shore near this place. The
lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution was immedi-
ately launched, and after pulling a distance of two miles,
in a heavy sea and strong wind, along a lee shore, reached
the vessel, and succeeded in rescuing the crews, two men
and a boy, and afterwards landing them in safety. The
sloop proved to be the Elizabeth and Mary, of Porthleven.
The lifeboat and crew were reported to have behaved ad-
mirably on this occasion. The vessel afterwards drifted
ashore in fragments.

KIRKCUDBRIGHT, Nov. 13.

Early this morning the brig Ellen, of Liverpool, went
ashore on the bar at the mouth of the river Dee, and was
in a very critical position. A strong breeze from the
S.S.E. was blowing, and a heavy sea running at the time.
As soon as the vessel was observed, the lifeboat of the
National Institution at this place was at once got out, and
proceeded to her assistance. Upon arriving alongside the
vessel's crew appeared to be quite ignorant of their position.
After some hours' exertion on the part of the liteboat's
crew, ably assisted by Captain Candlish of this place, who
had gone off in the lifeboat, they succeeded in getting the
vessel off, and bringing her and the crew of three men
safely into harbour. But for the assistance thus rendered
by the lifeboat the vessel would, in all probability, have
beaten over the bar and Melton Sands, and become a total
wreck.

ENGLIsii AND IRISH CRIMINALS.society is relieved of its criminals and of the dread of them,
while in England our suffering from them is what we have
seen. The reason of the contrast is that in England those
provisions of the act which relate to teland they have been taken
he security of society
are grossly neglected, while in Ireland
to heart, and fulfilled with eminent wisdom
ointand conscien-
tiousness. Here we reach the practical p. We, in
England, must get its full worth out of the act,asthefaiardly-
ministrator. at Dublin have done. Instead of crying out
against the ticket-of-leave system, we must see that it is
faithfully administered, according to law, and
brought into use.—Onee a Week
