A circular has been issued by the various docks
of London announcing a reduction in the charges
for warehousing tea equal to about 15 per cent.
The reduction is to be applied to all tea warehoused
since the Ist September.

At the meeting held to-day of the proprietors of
the Upper Assarn Tea Company the accounts sub-
mitted show a loss of £20,022 on the operations of
1865-66, and to this amount there will have to
be added a further deficiency estimated at
£6,000 or £7,000. The causes of this
result are chiefly found in the wasteful
expenditure which prevailed in every department of
the management of the company, and partly to the
consequences of the final act of the late board in
Placing the affairs under the control of the Court of
Chancery. When the present directors took
Charge the liabilities in London were £31,395,
'which to date, Oct. 1, are reduced to £7,517, and
now stand at £6,206. The directors state, in their
endeavours to re-establish the company, they have
had to contend with many difficulties and unforeseen
disappointments. These have been so far successfully
Inet, and nothing in regard to the financial position
of the company has been kept back. The home ex-
Penditure has been reduced from £2,000 to £4OO
Per annum, including directors' fees.
The report of the directors of the United Mexican
11lining Company was submitted at the meeting
ueld to-day. It stated that the expenditure in
the six months ending 30th June last exceeded the
returns by the sum of $12,613, besides $1,900, the
balance of loans to the Government. The general
expenditure has amounted to $28,589, and the re-
turns have been $15,976, leaving a loss of
$12,613. Mr. Furber has not had occasion to
draw more than the £1,200 against the credit of
£3,000 given him, as stated in the Directors' Report
of May last. On the other hand, his financial posi-
tion has since enabled him to send home nearly
£l,OOO, a portion of which was remitted to pay for
goods ordered from this country, to the value of
about £350. During the half-year forced loans to
the extent of 3,200 dollars have been levied on the
company in Mexico, but 1,300 dollars of that
amount have been repaid, and since June the fur-
ther sum of 500 dollars has been received. The
amount of available cash assets on 16th September,
1867, the latest date received, was 22,667 dollars,
and the approximate value of ores on hand and under
reduction 43,600 dollars.
The Manchester markets are thus commented on
by Messrs. A. Collie and Co. :—Since last Tuesday
the demand for goods and yarns has decidedly
diminished, and to-day we have to report a still
weaker tone and rather lower quotations for all
kinds. The dullness has no doubt been intensified
11 the still unceriain condition of Italian affairs,
but, apart from these, not much animation could
have been expected, as there are already fair sup-
ies of goods in process for the larger markets.
Producers, being still well engaged, are not eager
for further orders at less than our quotations sub-
joined.
