MONEY MARKET.

ITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The operations in the Foreign and Colonial Pro-
duce Markets during the last few days have been
limited, and little change of importance has taken
place in the value of most principal staples. Tea,
however, has been in steady request, while sugars
have shown a downward tendency as regards in-
ferior descriptions. Coffee has been in moderate
favour, good and fine qualities of plantation Ceylon
fully maintaining previous rates. Rice, spices, and
fruit have been without alteration, but an increased
demand has been experienced for saltpetre, and
quotations tend upwards. Tallow continues dull
for both present and forward delivery, P.Y.C. on
the spot beitg quoted 465. 3d. ; and last three
months' delivery, 48s. 3d. per cwt.
There is a decrease of £3,778 in the traffic receipts
of the Brighton railway, and of £3,898 on the South
Eastern for the past week.

Money continues plentiful; and the rates are con-
sequently very easy, 21 per cent. being asked for
first-class bills, and in some instances business is ne-
gotiated even per cent. lower.

A fair amount of business was again transacted
in the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, and
prices tended upwards. The sales were 7,000 bales.
A further supply of £65,000 was taken into the
Bank or England yesterday.

The Tagus has conveyed £20,000 in specie for
Lisbon.

Notice has been given by the Spanish Financial
Commission that,the auction of the Foreign Redeem-
able debt will take place at Madrid on the 29th
inst., for which purpose 5,921,072 reals have been
assigned by the Government.
No fluctuation of importance has taken place to
day in the market for the English Funds, which
are now comparatively neglected for other descrip•
tions of securities. Upou the whole, however, the
quotations are well maintained, the speculators being
evidently disinclined to enter into extensive
engagements for a fall, while affairs at home re-
main in their present unfavourable position.
Consols are 93 I I for transfer and the 10th
instant, and 93i 94 for the Bth proximo.
The New Threes and the Reduced are steady at
929 1. Exchequer Bills are firm at 18s. to 21s. pre-
Miln. Bank Stock is 23 6 and India 5 per cents.
1081
There has been little animation in the Foreign
Market, and prices have not varied to any impor-
tant extent. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 831 a ; ditto
1858, 691 ; Mexican are steady at 3314 ; Italian 5
per Cents. are 661; Russian have improved to 991
100 i, and Portuguese to 461 ; but Sardinian are
ilat at 81-t, and Spanish at 52-/, but the Certificates

REGISTRY OF DEEDS OFFICE (DUBLIN).

Sir E. GROGAN asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland
if he intended to introduce any bill dining the present ses-
sion to regulate the Registry of Deeds-office Dublin ?

Sir R. PEEL said it was the intention of the Govern-
ment to lay the bill in question on the table before the
Easter recess.

TRICENTENARY CELEBRATION OP
MASSACRE.

1 The Debuts of yesterday has the following akticha
upon a fact which was-alluded to in our Paris letter
on Saturday :
The Archbishop of Toulouse, in a pastoral letter
addressed to the faithful of his diocese, announces a
jubilee which is to commence in that city on the 16th
of next May. We observe that this local fete is in-
tended to celebrate the secular anniversary " of o
glorious deed which iias accomplished at Toulouso
300 years ago." In reading this pastoral letter wo
i naturally ask, What is the glorious deed of which
I the archbishop speaks with so much enthusiasm,
and which, moreover, he so carefully avoids ex.
plaining ? This reticence, evidently intentional,
conceals an enigma, the solution of which is suffi-
ciently know❑ to the Toulonaise, and this solu-
tion is as follows • Three hundred years ago
war waa declared at Toulouse between the
catholics and the Huguenots. The two sides fought
desperately with arms in their hands. On the 16th.
of May, 1652, the catholics compelled the pro-
testants to accept a capitulation, by the terms of
which the protestants were to leave the city is
safety on the condition that they laid down their
arms at the Hotel de Ville. The Protestants hav-
ing no distrust, began at once to lay down their
arms; but by virtue of a maxim then generally ad-
mitted, that the faithful were not bound to keep
sworn faith with heretics, the capitulation was
shamefully violated, and the disarmed Huguenots
were massacred to the last man. This event is re-
corded by all the historians of the time, De Thou,
Mezerai, La Popeliniere, in the memoirs of Conde
and of Montluc—above all, there is to be found a
very detailed account of it in the general history of
Languedoc of Don Vaisette, Vol. 5, p. 217 to 226
and p. 631. Some of these historians state that as
many as 4,000 Huguenots perished in this horrible
butchery. The municipal officers of the city and
the parliament, who took so sad a part in the re-
ligious struggles of that epoch, wished to perpetuate
the recollections of this glorious day by the institu-
tion of a secular fete which was celebrated on the
two past anniversaries of the 16th of May, 1662, and.
the 16th of May, 1762. One might naturally sup..
pose that the revolutions which have taken place
since this date, creating an abyss between the gene-
rations who were witnesses of these odious acts or
associated with them, and modern generations would.
have effaced for ever the recollection of them and.
abolished the fete instituted to glorify them. It is,
however, this very fete that the Archbishop of
Toulouse has conceived the project of reviving, and
of which he prescribes the celebration on the 16th
of next May.

PRUSSIA.

A Brussels letter, in the Journal de Liege, says :
—" The King is getting better ; he has resumed his
ordinary occupation, and takes long walks in the
Park of Laeken every morning. No surgical
operations ever succeeded better, nor has any
operator ever had a patient evincing greater
courage and firmness. A man in the prime of
life could not have shown more. During the
whole treatment, his Majesty attended to public
business, as may be seen by the date of the laws
and decrees in the official journal. Dr. Civiale,
who so successfully performed the operation on
his Majesty, received the decoration of the Order
of Leopold before he left for Paris, about ten
days since."

nN THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
s•-•• STRICTURES of the URETHRA; showing why they
so often appear Incurable, when in reality -they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E.,
And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.
" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—Medical Circular.

CLERICAL. MFDICIAT„ and CIENERAL LIFE
ASSURANCE SOCIETY,
13, St. James's-square, London, S.W.
Established 1824. Empowered blr Special Act of Parliament.
BONUS MEETING, 1862.
The Report presented at a Meeting held on the 2d January
last, for the declaration of the Seventh Bonus, showed, in
evidence of the progress of the Society, that during the quin-
quennial period which terminated on the 30th of June, 1861,
New Assurances for a total sum of £1,486,370 had been
effected, being an increase of £62,215 on those of the previous
five years ; that
The Income had increased from £166,800 to £195,400 per
annum; that
The Assurance Fund had risen from £1,154,276 to
£1,422,191; and that a
Reversionary Addition to the Policies of £275,077 was then
made, as against £232,479 at the prior division.
In illustration of the results of the Division, that the
Reversionary Addition above named averaged 48 per cent., or
varied with the different ages from 33 to 89 per cent. on the
Premiums paid in the five years; and that the
Cash Bonus averaged 23 per cent. on the like Premiums,
being amongst the largest ever declared by any office.
The Report explained at length the nature of the invest-
ments, and the bases of the calculations, the results of which,
as above shown, are eminently favourable.

The following are among the distinctive features of the
Society:—
I Credit System.—On Policies for the whole of life, one half of
the Annual Premiums during the first five years may remain
on credit, and may either continue as a debt on the Policy, or
be paid off at any time.
Policies for Terms of Years may be effected at rates pecu-
liarly favourable to Assurers.
Invalid Lives may be assured at Premiums proportioned to
the increased risk.
Prompt Settlement of Claims.—Claims paid thirty days
after proof of death.
The Accounts and Balance Sheets are at all times open to
the inspection of the Assured, or of persons proposing to
assure.
Tables of Rates, Forms of Proposal, the Report above men-
tioned, and a detailed account of the proceedings of the Bonus
Meeting, can be obtained from any of the Society's Agents,

additional share of profits over later Assurers.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 3d state that 20
millions of reals have been paid at Tangiers
by the Emperor of Morocco, which, with the 40
millions at London, make the sum of 60 millions
stipulated by the last convention. The Epoe'a
says :—" We have always asserted that the Cronica
gave way to passion in its news from Paris. What
proves this is the fact that in giving the note of the
Moniteur, stating that the Emperor regarded the
convention of Soledad as contrary to the dignity of
France, the Cronica says the Emperor disapproved of
the treaty as contrary to the dignity of the Allies.
The Emperor had a perfect right to judge the con-
vention as it regarded France, but he could have
no right to judge of the dignity of other
nations. The Emperor did not say what the Cronica
supposes, and we take the liberty of asking whether
it thinks itself justified in thus mis-stating the ex-
pressions of an official note."

TitANSIT OF SALT INTO POLAND AND
RUSSIA,
Mr. J. TOLLEMACIIE asked the President of the

the transit of salt through the territory of the Zollverein,
with bonding facilities in the Zollverein ports, so as to
enable this country to send that article into Poland and
Russia, which countries were now, to a great extent, sup-
plied with Austrian salt.
Mr. M. GIBSON said that the attention of the Board of
Trade had been called to the transit of salt through the
territory of the Zollverein, and it was thought desirable that
steps should be adopted in reference to this subject, and
they had entered into negotiations on the matter.

LAW-THIS D.Y.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before 111 r. Registrar Roche.)
IN RE BONNEY.

This was a meeting for choice of assignees, &c., in the
case of this bankrupt, Rebecca Bonney, who carried on
business as a wholesale confectioner, at Riegate. The
accounts by Mr. M. Thomas, Gresham-street, shows debtor
to creditors, £1,133, to ditto holding security, £230 ; assets,
good debts, £45; property given up, £265; ditto in the
hands of creditors, £400; debts, £45.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Evans.)
IN RE THE CUMBERLAND LEAD MINING COMPANY.

This was a petition to wind up the affairs of this com-
pany, which was formed in December, 1858, for the pur-
pose of working a lead mine in Cumberland, and were duly
incorporated. The nominal capital was £20,000, in 4,000
shares of £5 each. 3,356 shares were subscribed for, and
business was carried on until September, 1861. The whole
of the capital had been absorbed, and a resolution had
been passed for winding up voluntarily.

The petitioners are Mr. Thomas Bell, of Headingham.
Essex, the holder of 200 shares ; and Mr. N. Linds,
Moorgate-street, gentleman, holder of 580 shares.

IN RE HALL.-APPLICATION FOR RELEASE.

This bankrupt came up from Horsemonger-lane Gaol,
on an application to be discharged from custody.
Mr. G. Lewis, Hatton-garden, opposed, on the ground
that the notice was insufficient, having only reached him
by post last evening at seven o'clock; besides which there
was no affidavit.
Mr. Aldridge said that one had been sworn.

Mr. Lewis—lt is not in the proceedings, and until it is I
can't be supposed to know it. I cannot know what is in
your office.

Mr. Aldridge—The non-delivery of the notice is the fault
of the post office. I believe the letter was posted in time.
Mr. Lewis—You can see by the post-mark I could not
have received it till after seven last night.
Mr. Roche—That is a matter for the Postmaster-General
—you must apply to him.

Mr. Lewis—Eight and forty hours is absolutely requisite
and in Mr. Commissioner Goulburn's Court three days'
notice is required.

Mr. Aldridge—in some cases another detainer is lodged
after notice—is this one?

Mr. Lewis—No ; this is a very different thing, there is
only one detained; he would, to save trouble, take notice
for Friday next.

The Registrar said, after the case of Newton, before the
Lords' Justices, it was better to keep to the full time.
=-; Mr. Lewis proposed to examine the bankrupt, which was
objected to until the question of release was argued. The
case was therefore adjourned until Friday.

1) N THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
STRICTURES of the URETHRA ; showing why they
so often appear Incurable, when in reality they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E.,
_ _

•
And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—'Aledical Circular.

CLERKENWELL.—CONTICTION OF A WHOLE-
SALE MANUFACTURER OF COUNTERFEIT SOVE-
REIGNS—EXTENSIVE SEIZURE.---John Bryan alias
John Burns alias the Artful Card, who described
himself as an ivory turner, and who gave a false
address, was charged before Mr. Barker with hav-
ing in his possession several counterfeit sovereigns,
and two crown pieces, one half-crown, 32 florins,
and 14 shillings—all counterfeit—at St. Andrews,
Holborn, with intent feloniously to circulate the
same.
Mr. Bellamy, from the office of the solicitor to
the Mint, attended to prosecute.
This prisoner has for years been under the
surveillance of Mr. Brannan (late an inspector of
the police, but now appointed as Mint agent), he
being known as one of the largest manu-
facturers of counterfeit sovereigns and other
coins in and around the metropolis. So well were
his schemes laid and his plans carried out that he
had earned for himself the soubriquet of The Artful
Card. When he has been stopped and searched, or
when his residence has been ransacked, nothing has
been found on him which would warrant the otfi_cerr
.
in taking him into custody. On this occasion M
Allen,
Brannan, accompanied by Inspectors Fife,
and Brannan, and Sergeant Elliott,

not got me to rights this time." Mr.
Brannan replied, i " I think we have, but we shall
see who is right." A further search was made, and
in the prisoner's pocket, amongst a quantity of
good coin, was found a packet containing 14 coun-
terfeit shillings, all of them being wrapped sepa-
rately in pieces of tissue paper to prevent them
from scratching, and behind the skittle-ground
door was found a bag containing counterfeit sove-
reigns and other base coin. On the way to the,

police-station the officers were surrounded and a.
desperate effort was made to rescue the prisoner.
The Prisoner said he did not at present wish to
ask the officers any questions, as he should reserve
his defence for a higher tribunal than a police
court.
Mr. Brannan said the prisoner had been the
cause of getting more persons taken into custody and
convicted of uttering counterfeit coin than any half
dozen of men of the same class as the prisoner whom
he knew. He was a very bad and desperate fellow.
Mr. Barker fully committed the prisoner to No"
gate for trial.
