The dealings in the Railway Share Market hive
been unusually limited, and prices in most instances
have exhibited a downward tendency. South
Western, Great Western, and Midland each de-
clined about 55., but North Eastern, Berwick, and
North Eastern, York, advanced ss. Great Western,
Eastern Counties, Chester and Holyhead, and
South Wales realised yesterday's quotations. In
the French lines no transactions have been reported
and prices are nomiAlly unaltered. The Canadian
lines rule flat, Great Canada declined 10s. East
Indian, Namur And Liege, and West Flanders
were steady.
Mining Shares are at nominal values, no busi-
ness having been done.
For Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares

there was very little inquiry. London and West-
minster Bank advanced ss. European and Ame-
rican Steam declined about 55., and Netherlands
Land paid-up shares improved ss.

THE CHOLFEA.—Accounts !just received lead to the
fear that St. Petersburg is threatened with a fresh out-
break of cholera.

THE CONDEMNED CONVICT BAVE.—The execution of
George Bave, for the murder of a corporal of marines at
Woolwich, is now fixed to take place at Maidstone gaol,
on Thursday next, the 4th proximo.
INFANTICIDE AT BALING.—The inquest in this matter
was resumed yesterday, and medical evidence having
been given, the jury returned an open verdict, to the
effect that there was not sufficient evidence of the cause
of death.
The telegraphic quotations of the rates of exchange
from China yesterday show no alteration at Hong Kong,
but an advance of 5 per cent. at Shanghai—the rate,
which was 6s. lid, to 7s. by the last packet, being now
7s. 31d. to 7e. 4d.

Shakespeare, edited by Howard Staunton, and illus-
trated by John Gilbert ; comprising " King John" and
" Midsummer Night's Dream," with 35 illustrations by
John Gilbert. "Every number that is published of this
edition appears to be an improvement on the preceding
one. Routledge's Shakespeate is the most attractive
and valuable edition which has yet made its appear-
ance, and should be in the hands of every admirer of
the great master."—Doncaster Gazette. Advertisements
