It- is reported that the Dutch Government yes-
terday applied to the Chambers for a credit of 6,000,000
guilders (L 500,000) for defensive purposes.
The advices from Paris ptate that during the past
week several foreign banking houses have failed. The
Credit Mobilier, at their meeting on Saturday, decided on
making no further distribution for the year 1858. The
total profits dUrincr that period have been about £450,000,
of which £120,000 was divided at £1 a share in January
last. The remaining £360,000 is carried to the reserve to
meet losses by depreciation since the commencement of the
Present year.
THE NEW NOVEL, " WOODLEIGH." By the
author of "Wildflower," "One and Twenty," &c. 3 vols.
---•" The very agreeable impression which this writer has
left upon the public mind will not be diminished by Wood-
leigh. Here we find the same felicitous portraiture of
character; the same power of extracting its romance from
ordinary life • and the same skill in story-telling which
were admired in his previous novels. We find also closer
adherence to the probabilities of life than in Wildflower,'
while the author dives deeper into the human passions. The
book has sterling merit. It is likely to sustain and extend
an already high reputation."—Tho.Press.
