MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.
TUSEVKVING.
TIMES.—The news from America, published thinsAY morning, took the
City completely by surprise, and produced a fall of almost 1 per cent.
lu.Consols, from which they but slightly recovered at all in the course
of the day. The closing price of ye,terday for the Account was 961;
to 97, and the concluding price of to-day 96% to %, but they were
done at 9b MB. With the exception of this very marked effect, it has
been unusually difficult to collect in detail any opinions respecting
this news. People here are mostly disposed to regard the wto'e as a
continuation of that thee of bravado which the House of Representa-
tives, under the auspices of the President, Mr. Polk, has hitherto
maintained ; sad to hope, therefore, that the same feeling will not
be exhibited in the Senate. But the most anxious question discussed
here to-day has turned upon what course is likely to be taken by our
Government, should the notice to abandon the Oregon territory be
actually given—that is, whether such notice would be followed by an
immediate hostile manifestation, or whether that would be reserved
till the twelve months had expired. From observations that have
dropped from Sir Robert Peel it is errormusly inferred, that, in how-
ever courteous a manner this notice might be conveyed, it would be
Immediately resented ; and therefore the feeling which the news has
produced was, on the whole, a very uneasy one.
The premium on gold at Paris is 1234 per ratite, which, at the
English Mint price of 31. 17s. 1034 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives
an exchange of 93 46 ; and the exchange at Paris en London at short
being 25 65, it follows that gold is 0.74 per cent. dearer in Loudon
than in Paris.
By advlces from Ilamburgh the price of gold is 434% per mart,
which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 1934 d. per ounce for
standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 9%; and the exchange at
Hamburgh on London at short being 13 1134, it follows that geld la
0.60 per cent. dearer ha London than in Hamburgh.
The course of exchange at New York on London is 10134 per cent.,
and the par of exchange between England and America being •
109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 1.08 per cent.
against England. But the quoted exchange at New York being for
bills at 60 days sight, the interest must be deducted from the above
difference.

DOVER, MARCH 3.—Yesterday evening a great ban-
quet was given at Ostend by the Belgian Minister of Foreign Afters,
at the Town-hall, in honour of the inauguration of their post-effice
packet service between Ostend and Dover. Visitations were kindly
sent to the Mayor and Aldermen of Dover, thla Belgian Consul, toile
collector of customs and others, also to the directors of the South-East-
ern Railway Company. His to be regretted, however, that from un-
avoidable circumstances none of the members of the corporation were
enabled to attend ; and absence from Dover on official business pre-
vented the collector of the customs from attending the summons.
The Belgian Consul, with some few others, among whom was Mr. Waghorn, crossed the water yesterday, and had the honour of being-
present at a most sumptuous and hospitable entertainment. The
Town-hall was handsomely decorated, and the spacious and elegant
suite of apartments which it contains brilliantly lighted up. About
sixty sat down to dinner at half-past six o'clock, at which the Baron
Serclaas, Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, presided.
The company comprised the heads of the several public departments,
in the town, naval and military officers, the Mayor of Ostend, and
tended in an adjoining apartment duringhtehe

STRANGE AFFAIR ON THE SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY.
—At about midnight on Monday the policeman who has charge of
the Abbott's Cliff tunnel, near Folkstene, in passing through toward*
Dover, was startled on seeing a white figure about the centre of the •
tunnel. He immediately hastened to the spot, and on coming up to it
discovered it to be a female, standing between the rails on the down
side of the line. For some time she refitsed to answer any questions
as to how she became in so dangerous a situation, and appeared to be
in a very desponding state of mind. .Eventually, however, on her
way to Folkstones she stated that she had gone into the tunnel to be
killed by the train. It has since been ascertained that she is of
weak intellect, and had escaped from some private lunatic asylum in
the vicinity of Folkstene. It was a fortunate circumstance that the
policeman discovered her at the time he did, as the up train from
Dover shortly afterwards passed, and from the position she was found
In, had she remained, she would have been cut to pieces. It is sup.posed that she must have got access to the tunnel by climbing up, the
sea wall Nom the beach. Her friends are said to live at Dovez.
We are authorised to state that a vote of censure has
been passed by the Council of the College of Surgeons upon lee Law-
rence for the intemperate expressions made use of by him in his
late Hunterian oration.—Times. •
