hour as a spy upon another, and tempt hi
by the hope of gain to become
19e-ople of Michigan in expelling the Canada money? Is
it not 'as good at least as the Locofoco-Wild-Cat Cur-
rency of 1838 and 1839? But the law is void, mani-
festly void, and we hesitate not to assure our readers
that it will be so determined by the Courts."
A table, published in the Herald, shows that in the
years 1841 to 1847, 2,690 buildings were erected in
Montreal, of which were of wood-1 story, 1,071; l 3
story, 6; 2 story, 558; 2i story, 3; 3 story, 2—of brick,
1. story, 72; 2 story, 381; three story, 21; 4 story, I—.
of stone, 1 story, 22; 2 story, 359; 3 story, 145; 4 story,
82—of brick and wood, 1 story, 3; 2 story, 10—of atone
and wood, 2 story, 4—erected in 1841, 147; in 1842,
471; in 1843, 454; in 1844, 587; in 1845, 460; in 1846,
375; in 1847, 196.
The value of money in the Stock Exchange has been
very low since the dividends were paid, say lf to 2 per
cent., where the loans are for short periods,
but it is evident that in the face of ex-
isting political difficulties abroad, very few invest-
ments have recently been made in the Public Securities;
and yet events rather favour the impression that higher
values will obtain. The Vienna insurrection is a great
drawback, certainly, but against this we may
place the strength of the French Ministry, the
large specie arrivals, the last revenue stateinent
&c., allowing even for the admitted decay in our export
trade. The indisposition lately evinced to invest in
Shares should also throw surplus capital upon the Stock
Market. Consols have been 844 to 85 • the New Three-
and-a- Quarter per Cents. 84* to I ; and the Three per
Cents. 83* to 84. Bank Stock has been at 180 to 183.
Exchequer.-bills are 375. to 38s. premium for those of
March.
The Foreign Stock Market is very dull again. Mexi-
can Bonds are 19/ to I, Spanish Three per Cents. 21i,
and Brazilian 71. Equador Stock is marked 2. Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have been 44 to 44k, Por-
tuguese Four per Cents, have been 22k to 23k.
The Railway Share Market is very dull, but prices
continue about the same except in the instance of York
and North Midland, and the other York lines and North
British, which are affected by the report that no arrange•
ment has been come to with Mr. Hudson for leasing the
latter.
