THE RAILWAY SUN MAP.

The Map is produced by a new mode of stereotyping,
called the Gypsographic process, which has been patented
by Mr. Woone, a native of Exeter. It has a great ad-
vantage over the ordinary mode, inasmuch as the artist
can draw upon a plate, and this orginal sketch is cast
and printed at the ordinary printing machine. In our
endeavour to produce a design worthy of public patron-
age, we have tried many experiments, at a considerable
expense, and we trust that the Map now given, although
we may hereafter much improve it, will be found to be
a very great advance in the.art of surface printing. It
is the largest cast plate ever yet printed by the ordinary
process.

MONEY MA RS ET. - The Committee appointed to cowide,
the means best calculated to meet the wants of Government
without detriment to the interest of c9mmerce, presented their
report on the 7th inst. The Committee recommend the course
suggested by us, viz, that the amount required be paid by the
sale of 6 per Cent. Stock, and offered to take the whole sum at
71, but suggested that better terms be obtained by public com-
petition. In pursuance of this Report the Treasury ad-
vertised to receive tenders on the 12th instant, when Messrs.
Samuel Phillips were declared the highest bidders.
they offered to take 4,500 apolsces of 1,000 dol. each at 72 pet
cent., payable in the months of May, June, and July, but the
Ministers here offer to the extent only of 3,600 apolices, equal
to 72 per cent.,2,592,000 dol., and value en sterling, ex at 30}
340,200.

Thus are the wants of the Treasury supplied until the month
of July inclusive, and the weight being removed, we confid, ntly
look for a gradual ame!irration of the Aloney Market.
Exchange—The first rate of London was 30i, and at this and
30i bills to a fair amount were passed on the Ist instant ; until
the 12th there was no feature in the Market, and on this and
the following day 31i and 31a were the rates taken, the former
rates the River Plata bills.
Yesterday the transactions were to some extent; a larEe
amount of bills from the River Plata was expected to arrive, but
the quantity received was very limited. The first rate of the
morning was 311, and at this several bills, including some from
the River Plata, were negotiated at 31i and 31i. To-day a
fair amount of business has been done at Sli and 31 ; at the
close 31 was the rate.

STOCICS.—The fir;t price after the meeting upon the fir.ances
on the Ist inst., was 74, and since the 3d several sales were
made at 73 73k, 721 73. On the 13th, after the terms or the
loan had become known, it was more in demand, and some
large amounts were placed at 74, and on the 14th, 74i and
75 ; at the last quotation it closed firm.
The only transactions in shares were in those of the Com-
mercial bank, which were sold on the lUh at 460 dol., and
465, and
,470, the Steam-packets at 140 dol.
P. S.—Rio, Moir 17, 2, r.M.—EXCLIANGE: Some amounts
have been passed on London at 31 dol. and at 31i ; the Market
has a firmer appearance, Bills have been negotiated on Paris
at 310.
Nothing done in produce, in consequence of the state of the
weather ; no Coffee has been shipped to-day.
Buenos Ayres papers received to the 25th April. From the
interior, we learn that Tucuman, the last strong hold of the

the other by the forces of General Ibana.

ST. PETERSEURGH, JUNE 26.—The grand re-
view of the Guards will begin next week ; they
are now going into their usual camp at Zarskoje-
seto. On the 10th great damage was done at
Moscow by a great thunderstorm and hurricane.
In a quarter of an hour 250 buildings were un-
roofed, fences destroyed, and chimneys thrown
down. Among the public buildings.that have
suffered most are the great Theatre, the Exer-
cise-house, and St. Mary's Hospital.- The
amount of the damage cannot yet be estimated,
but it is thought to be very considerable.
FRANKFORT, JUNE 27.—His Majesty the King
of the Belgians will pass through this city next
month on his way to Cobay. It is probable that
he will go, at the end of the summer,. to Wies-
baden for the benefit of the waters.
HANOVER, JULY 6.—The Hanover Gazette
has given for some days past reports of the sit-
tings of the Chamber, which, with respect to the
Second Chamber, are little more than extracts
from the protocols. The discussions of the First
Chamber, on the Address, or rather the refusal
in the first and second debate to accede to the
Address of the Second Chamber are more in-
teresting. After the vote, the Crown Prince
rose, and spoke as follows :-
4, Much has been said of 'constitutional ques-
tions, and it has even been mentioned that doubts
are here and there entertained respecting the
validity of the Constitution; it seems that in the
Second Chamber allusions have been made to
the incompetency of the present Assembly of
the States. As an opportunity now offers to ex-
press my sentiments on this subject, and I wish
it may be for the last time, I embrace it, and
declare that though I take it for granted
that nobody believes that I dO not con-
sider myself strictly bound to maintain
the present constitution, under all the circuit]
stances, it is my firm and unalterable opinion
that I, as well as my Royal father, am bound to
maintain the present constitution, as well the
right of the Crown as those of the Estates.
Every individual paragraph of the constitution
was carefully weighed by , the King my father
and me, and no new paragraph was ever exa-
mined till the preceding had been thoroughly
discussed and approved. On occasion of this
business, as well as in discussion on other State
affairs, I have acquired the conviction that his
Majesty the King personally examines evert•
matter brought before him, and that the decree
issued by the Cabinet received the King's special
apixobation, and cannot be issued before they
are folly examined by his Majesty."
HANOVER, JULY 3.—Persons who are likely to
be well informed of the intention of the cabinet,
affirm that tho next Assembly of the States wit:
not be convoked till the autumn of this year. The
funieral of the Queen will take place on the 7th
of this month.—Hamburgh Paper, July 6.

VETERAN REFORMER.—At the ',ate elec-
tion for Greenwich, a staunch Reformer,
man who has attained his 93d year it:r.r. Gill, a gentle-
, came up to the poll and
gave his vote for the two
tions of the peon' eral candidates amid the acclamar-
.e. It is pleasant to find a man who has
reached . such an advanced age acting on the principles of his
youth, and showing that he still sympathises with his fellow.
men, and is willing to aid as far as he can in promoting the
cause of liberty and improvement. Honour to such a man.—
Kent Herald.
