HALF-PAST ONE.

The advestisement of the payment of the Brazilian
dividends, duo to-morrow, has given• much satisfaction
in the City. The non•appearance of that notice at an
earlier period is said to have had its origin in the recent
change of the Brazilian EmbasSy. The transfer of full
powers by the retiring Minister to the Chevalier de
Lisboa was only completed on Wednesday, by the ex-
change of their respective credentials at tho Foreign-
office.

There is still the same degree of inactivity in both
the English and Foreign Stock Markets that has pre-
vailed for several days.

QUARTER TO THREE.
A good deal of controversy has been going on in the
City during the last few days on 'aecount of the non-ap-
pearance of any advertisement respecting the payment
of the dividends on the Brazilian Foreign loan.
The change of Ministry .at Rio de Janeiro has led
to the recal of the A.mbassador here, M. Mon-
tezuma. His successor is,, however, in this cOun-
try, but . until M. Montezuma , could take formal
leave. of her Majesty the new-Envoy, • it, is.said, was
unable to take upon himself any diplomatic act; and he
alone haiing the necessary funds and authorityifor paying
the dividends, Montezuma could `riot well advertise it.
At all events, however,' the public,' should- have had some
intimation Of thesepeculiar cireutnstatices, by which the
credit of the Brazilian Goierranent wouldueier have
been called int6"questiod.
