MONEY MARKET

AIM
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The condition of monetary affairs continues un-
changed. The brokers have a full supply of money
cn hand, but are unwilling to lend it out under 7}
per cent. for short-dated paper. Perhaps the aspect
is not so unfavourable, but recent revelations re-
specting the operations of some of the finance
companies have occasioned anxiety and a rather
exaggerated idea of the future.
At the third ordinary general meeting to-day of
the shareholders of the English Joint stock Bank a
dividend of 6 per cent. was declared.
At the tenth annual general meeting to-day of the
shareholders of the Bank of Egypt a dividend was
declared of 10 per cent. and a bonus of 10s. per
share.
The changes in the principal items of the Bank of
England return are comparatively unimportant, and
the authorities have failed to obtain the requisite
increase in their reserves. Annexed are the parti-

The Price of Gold.

rh e quotation of gold at Paris is about 14 per mille prn., and
the short exchange on London is 25.15 per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of
178. mid. per ounce for standard gold, it appe,..'s that Itold is
about the per cent. dearer iu Paris than in London.

By advic,s from Hamburg the price of gold is 424 per mark
and the short exchange on London is 13.41 per .£1 stcrlin .
Standard gold at the Engll.ll Mint price is, theret9re, at
about the time price in London and Limburg.

Miss Wolfe's Concert.

A concert was given on Friday last, at St. James's
Hall, at which Miss Wolfe, a pupil, we believe, f
Madame Sainton-Dolby, made her first appearance
in public. Miss Wolfe has a mezzo-soprano voice
of fine quality and extensive compass. She has
evidently been well taught ; and while she executes
difficult passages with neatness and finish, she sings
simple expressive music with a great deal of hat°,
feeling. At yesterday's concert Miss Wolfe sans
two Italian airs, and was afterwards heard in an
English ballad. In the romance by Signor Marras'
" 0 vago fior," her brilliant vocalisation gained her
considerable applause ; and she was still more fez;
tunate in " The Bridge," by Miss Lindsay,
was encored. Instead of repeating " The Bridge,,,
Miss Wolfe substituted for it, " 0 Bay of Dublin/8
which was also most favourably received. i‘list
Wolfe may be congratulated on having made a Incs
successful debut. On this occasion she was assisted
Iby Madame Sainton-Dolby, who sang some of 11,e1
most popular ballads (among others, Claribels
cannot sing the old songs," in which she was encored),
Miss Cecilia Westbrook, Mrs. Osborne Williams'
Mr. Perren, Mr. Patey, M. Adolphe Ries, „d other
vocalists and instrumentalists of distinction.

COCKERMOUTH AND WORKINGTON.

The half-yearlymeeting was held at Cockermouth
on Wednesday, Mr. J. Steel, M.P., in the chair.
The report stated that a bill would be introduced
into Parliament by the London and North-Western
Railway Company, to give effect to the arrangement

come to on the 29th August last, to transfer this
line by lease to the London and North-Western.
Pending the sanction of the arrangement the direc-
tors had continued their attention to the manage-
ment of the line, the whole of which, with the roll-
ing stock, was in an efficient state. The traffic con-
tinued very satisfactory, the receipts showing a
considerable increase. In accordance with the terms
of the agreement entered into with the London and
North-Western Railway Company, the share olders
of this company would be paid a dividend at the rate
of 7 per cent. per annum, the first half being due on
the 10th of February.
The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the report.
He was happy to inform the shareholders the line
was in a satisfactory state. The London and North
Western Company had prepared a bill for the trans-
fer of this line to them, which would be submitted
I to Parliament for its sanction as speedily as possible.
The report was adopted, and a dividend of 14s.
per share, less income-tax, on the ordinary shares of
the company was declared.
_ _ _ _

The CHAIRMAN stated that the dividend would be
increased to 8, and then 9, and finally 10 per cent.
in perpetuity.
A vote of thanks to the chairman and directors
concluded the proceedings.

CUMBERLAND.

A large meeting of farmers washeld at Brampton,
Cumberland, on Wednesday, for the purpose of or-
ganising an association for checking the spread of
the cattle plague in Brampton Union and stamping
it out wherever it appears. The chair was taken by
Mr. Dacre, of Kirklinton Hall. It was reported that
during the past week the overseers had commenced
to collect the voluntary rate resolvedupon last week,
and had met with a ready consent to pay it in al-
most every instance. The chairman stated, how-
ever, that in the case of the county association
which he had pro.noted at the Quarter Sessions, he
had only met with coldness at Penrith and in other
places where the plague had not yet appeared. After
a short discussion a series of resolutions was car-
ried, adopting for Brampton Union the system pur-
sued in Aberdeenshire. It was stated that in the
case of stamping out at Swaites, near Brampton,
last week, a mistake had been committed. Both
diseased and healthy stock were destroyed. In fu-
ture only those will be killed that show symptoms of
disease. A cattle plague association has been formed
on the Netherby estate (Sir F. Graham's) for the
purpose of putting down the disease if it should
make its appearance, and for compensating persons
for cattle killed or destroyed on account thereof. A
rate of 6d. in the pound has been made on the rate-
able value of the farm—one-half paid by the land-
lord and the other half by the tenants, the rate to
be extended to ls. in the pound if required.

-~-

Mr. DENISON may be congratulated upon his re-
election to the Chair the second time, and the com-
pliments and congratulations which he received on
all sides must have been very gratifying to him. As
Mr. DISRAELI truly observed, a re-election to the
Chair is a greater distinction than the original
choice. " Political manoeuvres and Parliamentary
passions may contrive to raise an individual to the
elevated post, but they cannot keep him there. For
that result the possession of great, general, and
personal qualities are necessary, amiable courtesy,
adequate learning, firmness, impartiality; and, above
all, that inspiring sense of honour which is our
surest guide in the perplexities of public life, and
which ever has been, and, I trust, ever will be, the
characteristic of English gentlemen." Under the
circumstances of the case, the tribute of respect and
congratulation which the leader of the Opposition
offered to the newly-elected Speaker was of more
worth than the compliments he received from the
Ministerial side of the house. Mr. GLADSTONE, in
appropriate terms, congratulated the Speaker on
having been for the third time, by a unanimous vote
of the house, placed at the head of the Commons of
England. As the right hon. gentleman truly
observed, the duties of the Speaker at the
present time are very arduous. " The wants
of modern society make themselves felt within
these walls, both by the increasing amount
of public business, and by the increasing amount
also of what we term private business." Mr.
MONSELL and Earl GROSVENOR acquitted them-
selves admirably of their several tasks as proposer
and seconder, and the speech of the Speaker himself
was all that could be desired. He declared that
he had always endeavoured to do his duty as a
zealous and faithful servant of the house. Some
tinge of sadness almost always accompanies all
human ceremonies however great or grand, and it
is not surprising that the Speaker, in looking round
Position, should miss a
the house from his old
familiar face. "We have lost him who was the
foremost man among us, the leader of this house,
who by his great abilities, his long experience, and
a rare combination of qualities, had conciliated to
himself in a remarkable degree the confidence of
this house. Perhaps no one better than the Speaker
could appreciate the rare tact with which the late
Premier conducted the business of the house, and
conciliated angry or irritated feelings with his
happy and dexterous management.
Notwithstanding the many tributes of respect
and regard which have been paid to Lord PALMER-
STON, it may safely be said that nowhere would he
more earnestly have desired to be held in grateful
thought, and regretful memory, than iu that house
-where he passed so many long and eventful years.
The House of Commons was his congenial sphere
and the scene of his congenial triumphs. lie was

CUMBERLAND.

A large meeting of farmers was held at Brampton,
Cumberland, on Wednesday, for the purpose of or-
ganising an association for checking the spread of
the cattle plague in Brampton Union and stamping
it out wherever it appears. The chair was taken by
Mr. Dacre, of Kirklinton Hall. It was reported that
during the past week the overseers had commenced
to collect the voluntary rate resolved upon last week,
and had met with a ready consent to pay it in al-
most every instance. The chairman stated, how-
ever, that in thp case of the county association
which he had pro.noted at the Quarter Sessions, he
had only met with coldness at Penrith and in other
places where the plague had notyet appeared. After
a short discussion a series of resolutions was car-
ried, adopting for Brampton Union the system pur-
sued in Aberdeenshire. It was stated that in the
case of stamping out at Swaites, near Br tmpton,
last week, a mistake had been committed. Both
diseased and healthy stock were destroyed. In fu-
ture only those will be killed that show symptoms of
disease. A cattle plague association has been formed
on the Netherby estate (Sir F. Graham's) for the
purpose of putting down the disease if it should
make its appearance, and for compensating persons
for cattle killed or destroyed on account thereof. A
rate of 6d. in the pound has been made on the rate-
able value of the farm—one-half paid by the land-
lord and the other half by the tenants, the rate to
be extended to is. in the pound if required.

CHARING-CROSS HOTEL (LIMITED).

The report of the directors of this company states'
that without any confusion upwards of 200 guests
slept in the hotel the first night it was opened, and
it had since been admirably conducted by the
manager. The house had been well filled from the
beginning, and numerous applications for apart-
ments had constantly been declined. During the
winter months a slackness of business might have
been anticipated, but, on the contrary, the demand
had frequently exceeded the amount of accommoda-
tion the hotel was capable of affording. The trade
receipts from all sources during the seven months
and a half ending Dec. 311ast amounted to £46,482,
and, after placing £2,000 to the credit of the reserve
fund for depreciation and renewals, there remained
a balance of £13,265, and the directors recommended
that a dividend be declared at the rate of 12 per cent.
per annum, of 15s. per £lO share, free of income-
tax, for the seven months and a half, leaving £1,265.

much

long war, with the chances, however
in their favour. We trust that if the Chiliana
should be compelled still to combat their assailant,
the advantages they have already won may prove
only the earnest of others yet more signal that re-
main to be .reaped. But experience shows that
when two Powers are unequally matched, the bril-
liant exploits of the weaker, far from having a de-
cisive character or hastening the end of the contest,
only intensify the quarrel, and by provoking the
stronger to a greater development of energy make
the final issue the more certain. We saw this truth
of experience illustrated anew in the American war,
and we shall be glad if the lesson is not repeated in
the case of Chili and Spain. We fear that the effect
of recent events will be to render each party less in-
clined than before to accept the good offices which the
Governments of England and France desire to employ
in favour of peace. Chili and Peru are ready to incur
a considerable amount of risk for the sake of teach-
ing Spain to mind its own business in future, and
already fancy themselves well able to do so ; while
Castilian pride burns for revenge, even more than
for the dollars which were probably the primal/
object of the original expedition. If the neutral
Powers of Europe cannot mediate between the
belligerents with effect, the next best thing We call
wish is, that the American Republics on the one
hand, and Spain on the other, may have a fair field
and no favour. From this point a view of it seeing
desirable that some explanation should be
given of
a report published by the Patrie, to the effect that
" the iron-clad frigate Huascar, built in Englail,
upon the order of the Peruvian Government, will
be detained at Brest until the settlement of the
difference between Spain and Peru." The deten-
tion of a ship of war belonging to an independent
and Sovereign Power is an act so contrary tointer-
national law, and so purely arbitrary in its charac-
ter, that we are bound to suppose that the report
must be inaccurate: The subject, however, is one
upon which further information is urgently re-
quired.
