FORTIFICATION OF FALMOUTH HARBOUR.—The at.
tention of her Majesty's Government having recently
been drawn to the desirability of preparing the valu-
able harbour of Falmouth for resisting any attack
it has at length been determined to carry out a series
of works on an extensive scale, which shall effectu-
ally guard the rights of vessels calling at that port as
well as protect the property along the coast. A contract
has just been entered into by the Board of Ordnance with
Messrs. Olver and Sons, involving an outlay of many
thousands, to erect a range of fortifications at St. Maw's
and PendennisCastle and tbe contractors, who are bound
to complete the whole in six months from the date of the
contract,have at once commenceddrawing materialsforthe
commencement of the undertaking. The same firm have
this week entered into a contract with the Lords of the
Admiralty to make a number of important alterations
and additions to the Government dockyard at Mylor.
LIABILTY OF MONEY CHANGERS. —MM. Spilmann
and Co., money-changers in the Rue Vivienne, received
from MM. Monteaux and Co., also money-changers in
Paris, in the course of business, an English note for
5001., which, when presented at the Bank of England,
was stopped, on the ground that notice had been lodged
not to pay its amount, the note having been stolen.
MM. Spilmann and Co. then applied to MM. Mon.
teaux and Co. for restitution of 12,497 f. 50c., which
they had given for the note. MM. Alonteaux and Co.
refused to pay the amount, alleging that bank-notes,
being payable to bearer, had all the character of current
money, and that, not being susceptible of endorsement
they were transmissible without any guarantee
of
of ori-
gin ; furthermore, they contested the identity the
note presented. The case was then brought before the
Tribunal of Commerce of the Seine, which, after
hear-
ing lengthened arguments on both aides, yesterdayde-
dared MM. Spilmann and Co. ill-founded in their de-
mand.—Octlignmi,
