AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.
In the general Discount Market there is rather
more inquiry for accommodation. The rates cur -
rent, however, remained unaltered.
The Union, from New York, has arrived with
sPecie amounting to £14,625 for England, and
£5OO for Bremen.
In the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets,
during the last few days there has been a fair
amount of business transacted ; no change can be
reported in the value of tea, but sugars have brought
full rates. Coffee has been in fair request at steady
prices, while in rice, fruit, spices, and tallow no mate-
rial Change can be reported in the rates current.
At a meeting of the shareholders of the Royal
"lank of Liverpool, held there yesterday, state-
ments of a very extraordinary kind were made re-
specting the management of the bank, some of which
it is deemed probable may be the subject of investi-
gation in a court of law. It was unanimously' re-
solved that the bank should be voluntarily wound
fl, and that, as the position of the bank required
) a call of £lO on each share should be made.
Of the £251,000 in Australian gold just arrived
by the Sir John Lawrence, £11,400 is for the Bank
of New South Wales, £120,000 for the Commercial
Bank of Sydney, and £120,000 for the London
Chartered Bank. This reduces the amount of Aus-
tralian gold known to be on its way to this country
to £631,000. The Persia and the Union, both from
New York, have arrived, the former with specie
ani°4oting to £17,500, and the latter with £14,625,
for England, and £5OO for Bremen. The Louisiana
has arrived at St. Nazaire from Vera Cruz with
£240,000 in specie.
The laying down of the Submarine Telegraph
Company's new cable, from the South Foreland to
La Panne, a small fishing village in Belgium, close
to the French frontier, has been successfully com-
pleted by Mr. W. T. Henley of North Woolwich.
The cable is a very heavy one, containing four con-
ducting wires.
Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures
are steady at 24} 25i, and the Consolidated Mort-
gage Bonds at 19 20.
Dealings in the New Honduras Loan have been
Active, and the quotation has advancod to 2i 3 prem.
It is understood that the reply of the Greek Mi-
31i8ter for Foreign Affairs has arrived relative to
4
Proposed arrangement of the Greek Debt of
1821'5. At the last meeting of the bondholders an
adjournment was decided upon, so that the commit-
tee 'night forward to Athens some proposal for the
;Melioration of the terms then submitted to them.
tt appears that the reply consists, in effect, that the
"tldget for the year is framed upon the £55,000 a
sear, as offered. We may remind our readers that
ladjourned meeting of the bondholders will be
d on Wednesday, 13th inst.

The official liquidators of Overend, Gurney, and
(Limited) have arranged for the payment forth-
with of a further dividend of ls. in the pound,
Ilicia will raise the total thus far to 13s. It ap-
:ears that, instead of waiting until they could
:alise a lerger sum, they haVe thought it better, in
the absence of employment for money, to distribute
dB°°o, as possible the receipts in hand. Each Is.
tributed cancels £200,000 of debt, and checks
