he Bank of England return, completed to the
bullion
ult., shows no very important alteration. The

demand for the Continent having been met by the
4*ral- from Australia and the United States. The

tation in the other securities of over a quarter of a

°wing to the active collection of the revenue, but
'lteprivate deposits exhibit a small falling off. The
