The settling of the Consol Account is going off well to the
present. In the early part of the morning it had every ap-
pearance of its being a Bear one, but contrary to the general
expectation it has since turned out to be a Bull Account ; the
continuation has increased from 1 to 2 per cent., which de-
notes that the parties are going for a rise.
According to report in the City the revenue is going on
favourably, and there appears to be an increase of 600,0001. on
the two months of the quarter.

quer Bills, 72 74 prem. ; India Bonds, 72 74 prep[. ; Bank

At a General Quarterly Meeting of the Provident
Friend Society, on Friday, Aug. 24, held at Mr. Bullock's,
the Rising Sun, Waterloo-town, Bethnal-green, the Chair-
man, in concluling his rAtiress to the members, delivered
birmelf to the following effect :—" Gentlemen, in saying this
much, I will conclude by calling your attention to another
;sell-known fact—that so as the small acorn produces the laity
and majestic oak, so may this our small beginning- go on in-
creasing, that like the branches of the oak it may spread its
benign influence far and wide, and that whilst it offers shelter
and assistance to the less fortunate in health and circumstances,
it will be a matter of proud satisfaction to the more fortunate
part of its melnbers to find their labcurs so well rewarded in
tieing enablad to oEr an helping hand to their fellow man.'
