It is understood that Mexican dollars to the value
of about £720,000 had arrived at Vera Cruz when
the last advices left, and that the larger portion
may be expected about the end of next week. Some
amounts may come by way of New York, the Ame-
rican steam companies having arranged to bring
bullion to London at a charge of only per cut.

The report of the Assam Company for the year
ending 31st December last has been issued. It
states that the estimated result of the year's opera-
tions exhibits a trifling profit, and that the esti-
mates for 1869 are sufficiently favourable to justify
the directors iu proposing an interim dividend of
2i per cent. on the paid-up capital.
Vice-Chancellor Malius has appointed the 12th
of July to settle the list of coatributori!s of the
Aberdare Merthyr Steam Coal Company, L'ruited,
creditors •of which are required to send in the par-
ticulars of their claims by the 10th of this mouth
to Mr. Henry Dever, of Lothbury, the official liqui •
dator.

A committee of Erie Railway shareholders has
been formed in London for the purpose of prose-
cuting their rights and taking proceedings against
the present directors, with the view of protecting
the interests of the property, and making the ma-
nagement responsible for their late conduct. The
committee are highly respectable, and a subscription
of ls. per share, it is thought, will be suflieient•to
provide the necessary funds for taking action in the
courts of New York.

The directors of the Crystal Palace Company
have issued their report in anticipation of the
meeting. They state that the first six mouths of
the financial year, terminating April 30, 1869,
show very satisfactory results, the receipts indi-
cating a perceptible improvement on the usual
winter revenue. The course taken by the pro-
prietors of ordinary stock in relinquishing their
dividend at the last meeting has materially
strengthened the financial position of the com-
pany by affording relief from the monetary obli-
gations which were from time to time forced upon
tile directors by the want of sufficient working
capital. The amount standing to the debit of the
Dulwich Wood eat de has been brought within
very small limits, while the ground rents will in a
short time cover the amount of rent payable to the
College. The report alludes to a rezolution which
will be proposed at the approaching meeting to the
effect that no money be hereafter borrowed for the
purpose of paying any dividend to the ordinary or
Preference shareholders, and states that the ques-
tion of suspending these payments is one entirely
for the decision of the proprietors, without whose
sanction the directors would not feel justified in
departing from
,the practice hitherto adopted of
paying the preference dividend half-yearly.
At a meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Felix
Leach and Co., of Enfield Mills, near Accrington,
the liabilities were stated at £83,972, with assts
valued at £23,353. A committee of five was ap-
pointed to investigate the accounts.
The suspension is announced of Messrs. Sutcliffe
and Holliorake, manufacturers, of Todmorden,
with insignificant liabilities.
A Mr. Hancox, of Newark, New York, is stated
to have obtained the privilege from the Govern-
ment of Venezuela of navigating the waters of that
country, and has sent a pioneer steamer, El Heroe,
from the Orinoco river, which is navigable from
Trinidad to Nuarias, a distance of 1,000 miles. He
is building several others, to be completed during
the present season.
