IOMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE

TWErLVE O'CLOCK.
In the general discount market to-day the trans-
actions have been limited, and the rates remain
steady.
There was an influx of £7,000 at the Bank of
England on Saturday afternoon.
Notice has been given that it is necessary the
holders of Exchequer Bills, dated 11th March, 186'2,
who desire to have them exchanged for new bills,
should deposit them with the Bank of England to-
day.

Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co. have received
a remittance on account of the New Granada Debt
of £1,560 11s. 10d. from the Custom House of
Cartagena.
The progress of business in the manufacturing
districts during the past week has been very in-
active, and little improvement can be reported. At
Manchester cloths and yarns have barely maintained
former prices, although manufacturers and spinners
do not press sales. In the woollen districts of Leeds,
Bradford, and Huddersfield only a moderate in-
quiry has prevailed for goods suitable for immediate
home requirements. The hosiery and lace depart-
ments of Leicester and Nottingham have remained
Without change of importance, while at Birming-
ham dullness has been the prevailing feature in most
departments. The iron trade of Wolverhampton
and its immediate neighbourhood, however, has
shown symptoms of improvement, and the opera-
tives generally are now well employed.
Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures
have declined 1, to 29 31, and tha Consolidated
Mortgage Bonds 1, to 23i 24g.
The Marequeta and New Granada Mining Com-
pany (Limited) have received advices, of which the
following is an abstract :—" Santa Anna Mines for
the month of December. Amount of ore produced
for amalgamation, 50 tons. No profit and loss ac-
count received. The Superintendent writes under
date January 22, 1867 :—Mines. I despatch by
the present mail an average sample of the lode on
the 120 stopes. I also send you some specimens
from the veins in the lode. The vein of red silver
ore is on the eastern wall, and appeared first in the
back stopes south. It has widened considerably, and
appears now in No. 1 slope north, nearly a foot in
Width. The stones of grey silver and pyrites are also
from the eastern wall of stope No. 2. These veins
would seem to confirm the general opinion that silver
lodes increase in richness in depth. The new skips
Ste now working well. Marinate. mines for the
Month of December, 1866, cost $9,400 ; returns,
$10,567. Less gold was produced during this month,
owing to the mineral having been of poorer quality,
and the Christmas holidays and the shortness of
Water during repairs to San Josye Acpquia. The
(thief mechanic writes, under date 12th January,
1867, Aquas Claras.—" The barrel machinery is
very nearly ready. I sincerely hope that we shall
be able to begin to reduce mineral before this time
text month."

The market for Consols continues to vary about

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Beforo Mr. Commissioner Kerr.)
GAY V. PICARD.

This was a writ of ejectment under which the plaintiff
sought to recover possession of a certain coffee-shop.
Mr. Steadman appeared for the plaintiff, Mr. Green re-
presenting defendant.
It appeared that plaintiff had taken the premises in 1863
under an agreement that the rent was to be £3 Os. Bd. per
month, payable monthly, with a month's notice, such
notice to be put in force unless the defendant failed to pay
the rent or conducted tho house in an improper manner.
Defendant's counsel called upon Mr. Steadman to produce
the agreement, but Mr. Steadman said the document he
held was simply a counterpart of which defendant had the
original. After some delay, and the production of a wrong
agreement, defendant's counsel produced the original, which
fully made out the defendant's case. It was contended
that so long as the defendant paid the rent and conducted
the house properly, she was a yearly tenant, and there-
fore must have more than a month's notice.

His Honour ruled that the tenantcy was monthly, and
that a proper notice had been given. The defendant must
move out in ten days.
Mr. Green asked if he could not appeal ?
His Honour—ln this court there is no appeal in eject-
ment casos nor yet in equity. The usual order was then
made.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.--This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ABUSING THE KINDNESS OF TILE GUARDIANS OF ST
GEORGE'S, ITANOTER-SQUARE.—Thomas Wood, an inmate
of the workhouse of St. George, Hanover-square, Mount-
street, was chcarged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a
suit of clothes of tho value of £2 Os. 3d., the property of
the guardians of the poor of St. George's, Hanover-square.
Robert Plowright, porter at the workhouse, said that
on the 30th January the prisoner, who was an inmate of
the workhouse, went out wearing a new suit of clothes,
and nothing more was seen of him till Saturday evening
last, when he came to the workhouse and asked to be ad-
mitted as a tramp. He was admitted, and afterwards
given into custody by order of the master.
In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the witness stated that when
he asked the prisoner what he had done with the clothes
he made no reply.
Mr. George Cole, the master of the workhouse, explained
that the guardians provided each of the inmates with a
respectable suit of clothes, different to the usual work-
house clothing,:that when they went to visit their friends
it should not be known they were inmates of a workhouse.
On asking the prisoner what he had done with the clothes
he stated that he got drunk and lost them.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said ho had no doubt the prisoner had
pledged the clothes, and he would remand him to give an
opportunity of making inquiries respecting them.
