There are no arrivals to-day.
The Bank of England has not materially varied its cir-
culation in the week to Saturday last, the amount being
30,047,470/., or a deem ease of 4,1401. The Rest has been in-
creased by 3.2841. The public deposits have been augs
mented by 446,647/. The bullion is 16,639,315/., a decrease
of 37,4141.
The Scotch Banks increased their circulation in the four
weeks to June 21 by 128,280/., but the Irish establishments
lessened theirs by 308,330/., no doubt in order to meet any
particular effect that may be produced by the new cur-
rency Bill.
The meeting yesterday at the London Tavern, in aid of the
sufferers by the calamitous fire at Quebec, resulted in a large
subscription, about 2,700/., made in the room itself, and this
before the arrangements of the committee were even made.
Now that publicity to the matter is given in the advertising
columns of The Sun, and other journals, we shall, no doubt.,
have soon to notice that the above amount has been doubled
and trebled.
The Public Securities have been rising again to-day.
Consols are 99% % for the opening. The New Three-and-
a Quarter per Cents. have realised 1021/2 %, and the Three
per Cents. 991/2 to %. Bank Stock has been firm at 211%.
The Foreign Investments are quiet, but, except Spanish,
they maintain about previous rates. This security has
been 27% for the Five per Cents., and 38% 38% for the
Three per Cents. Mexican Bonds ave been 37% to 37%,
being a decided improvement since the meeting of Bond-
holders. Dutch Two-and-a• Half per Cents. are 62%.
Brazil Stock has been at 90%.
The Share market is very good for some of the old lines
which benefit by the diminished speculation in new and
foreign pi-ejects.

THE VOTES OF FREEMEN iN THE CITY OF LONDON.
—We beg to remind our readers, that after the close of the present
month, persons wishing to acquire votes for the City of London at
the ensuing general election, v,lll be precluded from doing so. The
Reform Act requires that they slia,l have been freemen and livery-
men twelve months before they can be placed on the registry list,
and as this list will Ise made up to the 31st day of July, 1846, no
person taking up his freedom and livery after the 31st day of July,
1845, can be placed upon it. All persons, therefore, wishing to
obtain votes should make an inquiry at the Chamberlain's-office,
Guildhall, concerning the process, without further delay, as the
formalities of their admission must necessarily occupy some

time.
Yesterday morning, at eight o'clock, a new and
large royal standard was hoisted on the triumphal arch in front of
Buckingham Palace, in lieu of the one that was nearly demolished
by the wind on Wednesday last.
STATUE OF JAMES H. IN WHITEHALL-GARDENS.—
_ _ _

The doubt which has long prevailed respecting the artist of this
statue has recently been cleared up by the appearance of a work
entitled " The Autobiography of Sir John Bramaton," printed by
the Camden Society. The passage is as follows :—" On New Year's
day, 1686, a statue in brass was to be seen (placed the day before)
in the yard at Whitehall, made by Gibbons, at the charge of Toby
Rustick, of the present King James II." It thus turns out that
Walpole had a correct impression of the truth when he wrote—" I
am the rather inclined to attribute the statue at Whitehall to
Gibbons, because I know no other artist of that time capable of it."
