shire and Yorkshire of £1,670, on the North

ing off of £1,918, the Midland of £862, the Great
Northern of £1,690, and the South Eastern of £4l.
The dealings in, the Railway Share Market

ment may be noticed in the rates current for seve-
ral of the principal British undertakings. Caledo-
nians and Great Westerns have advanced ss. ;
Eastern Counties, 10s. ; and Manchester, Sheffield,
and Lincoln, £1 ; Great Northerns, Lancashire and
Yorkshire, and South Westerns declined 55., South
Wales 10s., and North Staffordshire 15s.

portance. Bahia and San Francisco brought 10;
and Antwerp and Rotterdam, 5! 51.
For the Colonial undertakings prices were de-
pressed. Eest Indian declined to 100! ; and Great
Indian Peninsula to 981.
Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous shares have

Australia declined 55., and Australian Agricultu-
ral, ss.

WESTERN BANK--We understand that the com-
promise between the liquidators of the Western Bank and
those of the directors who were pasties to the agreement
submitted to the recent meetings of the shareholders was
concluded in Glasgow on Monday. The immediate conse-
quence of this is the cessation of the actions raised by the
liquidators at the instance of the shareholders and by in-
dividual partners against the directors, and the return in a
week or two, of £25 per share to each partner who has
paid the calls in full. It is also expected that another re-
turn, to a similar extent, will afterwards be made. Under
the compromise, the directors, with the exception of
Messrs. William and James Baird, who are not parties
to the arrangement—assign their shares to the bank,
numbering 812, and, besides make a payment in cash
to the amount of £162,900—making altogether a
total contribution equal to £200,000. From this sum,
however, there will be deducted £lOO per share, which
is to be allowed to Messrs. Inglis and Langdale,
"in respect of security acquired by diligence used prior to
that at the bank's instance." The legal expenses incurred
in the prosecution of the cases of these gentlemen, amount-
ing to ,£6,000, are to be paid separately. Those partners
also, who acquired their shares subsequent to June, 1857,
when the bank was in a perilous condition, are to be
allowed £2O per share over and above receiving their pro-
portion along with the rest of the shareholders. These
preferential claims, amounting to £25,500, leave a sum of
nearly £175,000 to be divided among the other and larger
body of shareholders, irrespective of the large amount of
funds belonging to the bank, arising from the surplus of
the call.—&otsillan.
