A public meeting of the
county is to be hell here
(Paisley) on Thursday next week, to consider on some
mode of relief for the suffering and unemployed work-
men. Air. Wallace has published a letter on the sub-
ject. The proceedings. are likely to be of great'inte-
rest.—ReVrewshire Reformer.
There are said to be '3O tutors in Oxford, 50 of
whom are Puseyites, and only 30 Protestants ; for a
Puseyist can hardly be considered a protester against
the Roman Church. Arid it is apprehended that
nearly the whole of the parochial clergy, all of whom
have graduated or will graduate at one of the Univer -
sales, will in time be brought under the influence of
Puseyism,
glican Church ; but how will the people like it ?
This is a pleasant prospect for the An-
There are, we believe, secret influences at work in
this matter to which we do not care at present more
particularly
enough; and when known, there will be doings be.

tween High Church and ' Low Church which may
pave the way, if properly managed, to the " volur.-

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. I

CITY, MONDAY EVENING.
Stocks closed firmly this afternoon, a fair busi-
ness having been done. Consols for Money left off
at 94 to*, and for Time at 94* to I. Exchequer Bills
were again 58s. to
.60s. premium, New Three-and-a-
Half per Cents. 101* to -a, Reduced Ditto 100 f tot
and Old Three-and-a-Half per Cents. 1001. Bank
Stock continues slowly to advance. This afternoon
it reached 169 to 170, since, in the event of a conver-
sion, there would be some little profit on management
for the Corporation. India Stock also improved, being
at 255 to 256. India Bonds were not dealt in.
The additional transactions in the Foreign Market
this afternoon were limited to Colombian at an advance
to 21*, to Mexican at 33-1 *, to Brazilian at 634, to
Portuguese Converted, for Account, at 33, and to Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 52* *.
Shares were rather firmer this afternoon. Bir-
mingham and Gloucester Railway at 59i ; Brighton
at 14 to 13* ; Blackwall at 10* ; and South Eastern
at 27/ discount. Birmingham were 91*; Great
Western, 191 ; and Northern and Eastern Scrip at 14
premium. National Bank of Ireland Shares were 14
discount; Union of Australia, 84 premium; and
Union of London, 'par. -

We have no further neves this afternoon.
(From The Sun of Last Night.)
In the Liverpool Cotton Market the sales on Satur-
day were 4,900 bales at steady prices. Railway Shares
were quiet, and no material alteration had occurred, in
prices. Eastern Counties were ik; Edinburgh and
Glasgow, New, 44; -Grand Junction, 174; Birmingham,
181 •, Brighton, 36k; and Paris and Rouen, 221-.7
The arrival of the express in anticipation of the gene-
ral Overland Mail, furnishes very interesting accounts.
from India and China, for the consideration of our City
politicians. The movements of the army in Affghanistan
are looked upon as favourable, and in China, also, our
progress is believed to be lastly bringing matters to a
crisis. The state of the commercial markets in India
is certainly not worse as regards Calcutta than by the
previous letters, and at Bombay there was an improve-
ment in the demand for British manufactures. The In-
digo planters are stated to be severely crippled by the
short crops and the low price of their staple, while of raw
silk the yield also appears to be limited.
The Minister of Finance is stated in the accounts re-
ceived from Antwerp,qo have returned to Brussels, and
the speedy exchange of the treaty between . Belgium
and Holland was, therefore, anticipated. The British
Queen had brought the satisfactory intelligence to Ant-
werp, of the intention of the United States Go-
vernment to remit the heavy charges upon Belgian
vessels arriving in the ports of the republic, and should
this be established -as a precedent, we suppose the Mi-
nistry of Leopold will also revoke the order for extra
tonnage being levied upon American ships entering into
the Belgian harbours. Insurances had been done on the
British Queen at 25 per cent., and one journalist inte-
rested in commercial matters is accused of having in-
serted gloomy predictions with the view to profit by the
alarm, and secure this high premium.
The accounts from Lisbon are satisfactory in regard
to the advances obtained from the Bank by the Govern-
ment. _ _

Froni Hamburgh the exchange comes * mark lower,
viz., 13 8, and the price of gold had dropped to 4321.
We have an arrival from New York by packet ship,
but the dates are only to the 10th instant.
The favourable intelligence received from India and
China this morning has had a beneficial effect upon the
market for the public securities. Consuls for Account,
which left off on Saturday all but nominally at 9311 94,
have touched 94*, and up to the present
hour the advance has been well maintained.
The great abundance of money continues to be
a matter of conversation in the City ; but how should it
be otherwise ? The accumulations of capital are rapidly
progressing without any corresponding vent for it
in the shape of trade and commercial operations
of any importance. Consols for Money have
obtained precisely the same value as Consuls for
time. There is, however, no movement upwards in the
Three-and-a-Half per Cents. Reduced.• This shows that
a belief is entertained that the reduction of the interest
will, at no very distant period be announced. The-pre-
mium upon Exchequer Bills remains firm at 58s. 60s.
Bank Stock has advanced to 170, and India Stock is
firm, at 255. The Old Three-and-half per Cents.
of 1818, have been quoted this morning at 100 1.
The Brokers for the Savings Banks bought about
10,0000 stock (Three -per Cents,Y ikia morning.
There has been a good demand fu's' Foreign Bonds to-
day, and at unvariedprices. Mexican Stock has reached
331 1, (a further remittance having been received for
the next dividend.) Peruvian, 171 ; Colombian,
21 : Spanish Three per Cents, 221 ; Dutch- Five per
Cents., 1001 ; Belgian, 102 ; and Spanish Consols, 18 to
18*. The New Three per Cent. Spanish Bonds have
. been in.demand at 221 ; Deferred Stock wa slast done
at 10*.
Not many transactions were reported in the Railway.
Shares to-day, but, taken on the whole, we cannot quote
an improved Market. The Birmingham and Gloucester
have realized 59 discount ; the Eastern Counties, 141 ;
dis. ; Gmt 'Western, 19 prem. ; New Ditto, 111 ;
prom., they London and Brighton, 14* dis. ; the South
Western, 181 prem. ; the South Enstern Scrip, 21 dis. ;
and the York and North Midland, New, 171 prem. In
the Joint-stock Bank-houses, Only a few transactions
have occurred.
