The Ilolsatia, from New York, has brought
£28,000 in gold, which was delivered at the Rink

brought £9,200.
Advices from Madrid gives very satisfactory ac-
counts with regard to the subscription of the Na-
tional Loan.

A remittance of £686 9s. 6d., at 90 days' sight,
on account of the dividend on the debt of Ecuador,

deposited in Paris, at 5, Rue Scribe, and in Lon-
don, at 178, Gresham House; and the payment will
be made five days afterward=, on the production of
the receipts.
With 'respect to the appeal to the Committee of
the Stock Exchange against the settlement of the
Italian Tobacco Loan, on the ground of repudi t-
tion, the question arises whether it would not be
the best course for the bondholders in the Cavo.ur
Canal as well as the parties interested in the Sar-
dinian Railway, to forego their proposed opposition
to the settlement of the Tobacco Loan, the result of
which might be doubtful, and to lay their grievances
before the Council of Foreign BandholderS about
to be formed, with the view of obtaining thence-
forth a permanent ban against all ne,,v Italian
securities until they shall have attained redress.
Sir Charles Jackson, Chief Commissioner, Major
M. C. Lead Innes, and Commissioner Melville
resumed the Government inquiry yesterday into
the failure of the Bank of Bombay. Mr. New-
march, the barrister, who represented a body of
shareholders residing in England, was not present,
and had retired from the investigation, the Com-
missioners having declined to accede to the request
made to allow him to cross-examine the witnesses.
Mr. Archibald Robinson, who had been Chief Se-
cretary of the Presidency of Bombay, was examined
yesterday. The inquiry must necessarily occupy
some time longer.
A circular has been issued in Re Bank of Lon-
don warning shareholders not to dispose of their
shares on the unfavourable terms on which they
have lately been sold, and calling upon them to
retain their property in the stock of the bank until
in a few weeks a general meeting shall pronounce
Upon what is expedient as to the future.
Telegrams from Frankfort state that subscrip-
tions have been opened at Messrs. Remach's,
bankers, for a Neapolitan loan. It is issued in
183,000 bonds, the nominal value 150 f., at the
price of 1161, bearing interest at 7f. per bond, to
be paid in gold. The loan is to be redeemed
by drawings. Subscription lists have also been
Opened at Paris, Berlin, Hamburgh, Leipsic,
Breslau, and Geneva, between the 18th and 21st
instant.

After the Ist of January next, the tariff of the
Austrian and Hungarian railways for the transmis-
sion of goods will be considerably modified by the
abolition of the percentages hitherto exclusively
granted to large commission houses, so that all
parties will henceforth be on the same footing. The
Berlin Stettin Railway will likewise adopt the same
free trade principle.

7HE MUSICAL MONTHLIES.

HANOVER-SQUARE.—Tbe current number of this
excellent magazine opens with a very spirited com-
position by Sydney Smith, entitled " Happy Me-
mories," which, in the hands of ordinary players,
will well repay de study. Virginia Gabriel's
sot,g, "A Farewell," is plaiutite and pretty,
but with respect to Mr. Cooper's new
air to Moore's, " Nora Creina," we don't think it
an improvement on the original. M. Bergson con-
tributes a dishing piece, " Bergeronnette," which
will find particular favour with those who admire
foreig❑ dance music. The number is a very good
one, and shows that the untiring editor, Mr. Lindsay
Sloper, is ever on the search for novelty for his
patrons.
BOND-STREET—CO:AtdOS Jesse Williatnes"Niblo"
Waltz, and Mr. F. MuSgrave.'s " Tournammt"
Galop DA the instrumental portion, the remaining
pagas being occupied with a pretty song, entitled
"Sweet Echos" by Douglas Murray, and " The
Sister's Parting" by Mr. Charles Blamphin. The
ballads this month are of more than average exca-
leuce, and besid3s being particul.►rly good, they are
so arranged that a moderate register of voice is
only required to zing them, a virtue of rather rare
occurrence at the present day.
EXETER lIALL.---1 he pianoforte Om this month
is by W. F. Taylor. It is entitled " Reverie Re-
ligieuse," and is marked by 'careful study and
graceful melody. The new hymn is entitled " God
of Israel," .he composer being Mr. C. Barry ;
and Mr. G. A. Osborne contributes a beauti-
ful song, " Let me be remembered for what
I have done." Stephen Glover enriches the num-
ber with a duet, " The Life Stream and the River,"
which, with an effective piece for the harmonium,
make up a very attractive number.

BEETHOVEN'S SONATAS. —The complete and beau-
tiful edition of the sonatas of the great composer,
edited by ratter, and published by Messrs Angeuer,
of Newgate-street, has already reached a third
edition, but that is but a very small criterion of
the extent the actual circulation will be, as it is
without doubt the best and most conve-
nient volume of Beethoven's sonata's yet issued.
It is so admirably printed that it is much
to be preferred to the ordinary sized score, as by a
judicious arrangement of space the size of the
notes are not diminished, and by the adoption of
the large Bvo. size more than the usual quantity of
staves are printed on each page so that the per-
former is not called upon to turn the leaves so fre-
quently, an arrangement that all players will highly
appreciate. The price for the volume compared
to that usually charged for the sonatas singly
is wonderfully cheap, as for half a dozen shillings
a volume of music of one of the greatest com-
posers that ever lived can now be obtained, an
opportunity of which thousands will take ad-
vantage.
