Railway Company, which is to be marked in the

The suspension has been announced of Messrs.
S. Isaac Campbell and Co., merchat ts, East India-
avenue. The firm have bad largo transactions,
but were understood to be in difficulties some
years ago from which they have never com-
pletely recovered. Their name bas been promi-
nent lately in connection with the reclamatio2s
against the Spanish Government for the capture
of the Tornado. The amount of outstanding liabi-
lities has not transpired, but they are probably
rather large. •
Concessions have been granted for a telegraph
scheme to connect the British India telegraphic
system with a line from Bangkok, through Siam
and Cambodia, to Saigon, and thence to Cape St.
James or Cape Padaran, from which a submarine
cable will be laid to Hongkong. The privileges
obtained include exclusive rights from the French
authorities at Saigon for 40 years, the exclusive
right of communication through Cambodia, and a
concession from Siam for 90 years. It is anticipated
to have Saigon in connexion with Europe before the
end of next year, and that the connexion between
Saigon and Hongkong may be established in the
summer of 1871.

A ttl.gram states that the Hull steamer with the
Black Sea cable on board arrived at Gibraltar yes-
terday (Sunday) morning, and was to leave in the
afternoon. The cable is 100 miles in length, and
forms a portion of the new telegraphic route be-
tween England and Inida, via Prussia, Russia, and
Persia, now in course of construction for the ludo-
European Telegraph Company by Messrs. Siemens,
a member of which firm, Mr. C. W. Siemens, has
gone out to superintend personally the operation of
submerging it. Two-thirds of the land lines through
Perkia have been completed, and the construction
of the remainder of the line through Russia, to
unite with the Prussian tel .graphs, is making rapid
progress.

At a meeting of the eredi!.ors of Mr. G. Mason,
manufacturer, of Caytou, near Bradford, on Satur-
day, the lial)ilities were shown to I,e £60,000, and
an agreement was adopted to accept a compo.-3.ition
of 7s. 6d. in the pound, provided that sum can be
guaranteed—a paint which will be determined at an
adjourned meeting in a week.
nefscs. John Clough and Co., machine wool-
combers, of Bradford, are aunounc.e.d to have failed,
With liabi i.ies fo: £5,000.

The gross liabili.it s of Messrs. Shore, Kirk, and
Hargreaves, who suspend,A oa the Manchester
Stock-Exchange on Thursday, are stated to amount
to about £150,000, but of these £120,000 will be
covered by securities. The circular issued attributes
the stoppage to default on the part of certain of
their principals. _ _

The report to be presentel at the meeting of the
Anglo-American Telegraph Company on the 14th
inst. recommends a dividend of 17s. per share,
making, with previous distributions, a little over
24 per cent. for the year. _ .

Iclesz.rs. J. Cooper and W. W. Urwick, the liqui-
dators of the General Exchange Bank, Limited,
have issue I a detailed report of their proceedings
for the past year, but the accounts pending are still
too uncertain and various to admit of a definite
calculation as tethe final result.
