The Bank of England returns to the 7th instant, on a
comparison with the previous weekly statement, offers
the following features only deserving special allusion:—
A restriction in the paper circulation of 279,9251., as
regards the issue department ; a further increase in the
public deposits, under the banking department ; but a
slight decrease in the general lodgments, a trifling re-
duction in the rest, and a diminution in the bullion, to
the total amount of 319,9491.
There are no later arrivals to-day from any quarter.
A fair business has been done this week in the general
produce markets ; and the same satisfactory feature
distinguishes them ; viz., an absence of speculation.
Indigo has improved within the last two days ; and the
lorge Colonial Wool sales have gone off favourably.
The Public Securities have been firm to-day. The
purchases on account of the Sinking Fund will
be limited to 43,5191, as regards Stock, but
there will be again 400,0001. invested in the Exchequer
Bills, made out pursuant to the Act 57 Geo. 111., cap.
48. Consols are 1001 to 1 for Money, and the same for
Account. Exchequer Bills realise 755. to 775. premium.
The New Three-and-a-Half per Cents. obtain 102 i to
1021 ; Bank Stock is worth 206 ex-div. ; and India
Stock, 289.

being almost nominal. Portugues Converted are
marked 51 ; Mexican bring 341 ; and Peruvian, 25
to ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are 621 to 1.
The Railway Shares have been quiet, and buyers are
still rather too freely met to allow of the market being
called very firm. The French lines continue an excel).
tion, as they attract more notice at improving rates.
Banks and Mines are dull.

Old Vauxhall has closed its career for ever; but a
new one, in a more elevated spot, amid the fashionable
world, is preparing to take its place, and entirely put
in the shade ail the former great doings of the old
school. Littlejohn, long famed for his great tact,
has added another and important wreath to his laurels
by the style in which he has opened the Rosherville
Gardens. By this enterprise he has this season put
seven thousand pounds of clear gain into his pocket.
Next year he intends that Cremorne House (near the site
of the Ranelagh Gardens in the olden time) shall
eclipse even the transcendant fame of Rosherville. We
see in our columns the miscellaneous appendages
about these beautiful grounds do not accord with his
views of the present times, and are consequently con-
signed to the hammer this month, in order that
the approaching season may open with all the eclat I
which novelty and splendour combined will neces-
sarily ensure.
Earl Fitzhardinge intends to commence the hunting
