"NOTICE

The minimum rate of interest on bills discounted at the
Bank of England not having more than 95 days to run is
£5 per cent. • - •
April 8, 1847."

As such a step had been very generally anticipated, the
effect upon the market for public securities was not at
first materially felt. At a subsequent period of the day,
however, prices began to decline; and on Friday a very
severe depreciation occurred, consols at the close of the
market having been done as low as 86. The demand for
railway and other securities continues to decline day by
day ; and holders for speculation see little short of ruin
before them, all chance of escape being cut off by the im-
possibility to realize in the present state of the money
markets. • It seems to be generally admitted that a severe
crisis is approaching.
Our market for Cotton continues firm, being influenced
by the accounts brought by the last arrival from the
United States ; and in some cases an advance of id. per
lb. has been obtained. Speculation however is checked
by the pressure for money; and the diminished consump-
tion contributes to forward this very desirable end. There
seems at present little likelihood of any great increase in
the present demand. Some fabrics it is true are begin-
ning to be moved off by the manufacturers at prices more
nearly approaching the rates paid for the raw material
than were obtainable a few weeks ago. But buyers ope-
rate very sparingly and with great caution. The working
of short time is still adhered to ; and the sufferings of the
operative classes are daily becoming more severe.

REDUCTION OF PREMIUMS.

The DIRECTORS beg to inform the Public, that, in pursu-
ance of the intimation conveyed in their Annual Report for
the year 1845, they have taken the earliest opportunity, after
the new Water Works were completed, to secure for the town
the benefit of that reduction in the Premiums for the Insurance
of its Mercantile Property which the want of water for extin-
guishing fires has so long delayed.
The nature and extent of the proposed changes are now under
consideration, and will shortly be published ; in the meantime
all orders for the Insurance of Property of that description will
be taken at the reduced rates.

LIFE INSURANCE.—Theattention of the Public is requested
to the Company's new scheme of Guaranteed Bonuses, as af-
fording important advantages to the Insured.

"No wonder the French make good Coffee, for this Cafetiere
is the most simple, economical, and perfect machine ever
invented for the purpose."

DIRECTIONS FOR MAKING FRENCH COFFEE BY THE
NEW CAFETIERES.
Scald out with hot water, and put in fresh ground Coffee
over the fine strainer in the middle of the Cafetiere. Then
press it down flat with the little tin stamper. Pour on boiling
water through the top strainer, and the Coffee will drain through
in half a minute, hot, and bright as brandy.
N.B.—The French always boil their milk for Coffee in the
morning, and they generally use more Coffee than is usual in.
England.

BENJAMIN HIGGS respectfully invites Head of Families,
the Public in general, and Ladies in particular, to INSPECT a
much improved WASHING, WRINGING, and MANGLING
MACHINE, which has given very general satisfaction. By
this Machine three-fourths of the wear, labour, and time usually
occupied will be saved; the Clothes are better washed, conse-
quently have a much better colour; the injury done to Clothes,
by twisting to wring the wet out, is entirely avoided; and,
finally, they are smoothed by the Mangling process in the very
best manner. The whole Machine is so compact as to take up
only half the room of a common mangle. It may be seen is
constant use at the Northern Hospital, and in various public
and private establishments in the town, and at his Furnishing.

At this day's market the supply of Wheat has again been to
a fair extent; the farmers asked higher rates, which in some

the quantity on sale exceedingly limited. Barley may be con-
sidered firmer, being in short supply. Oats and other Spring

FOR NOTHING.

A PAMPHLET "On the GREATEST DISCOVERY
1-1. of the AGE," (says Coordnn,) that is, "that the BRAIN
is the seat of all Nervous or Mental Complaints." This was
made by Dr. Willis Moseley, (of Cambridge University,) before
Gall, and on his successful treatment of these complaints, with
cases, testimonials, &c., and will frank it to every address if a
stamp is enclosed to IS, Bloomsbury-street, Bedford-square,
London.

And if 16 stamps are sent, he will return the sth edition of
his large work, 12 CHAPTERS on the CURE of NERVOUS or
MIND COMPLAINTS, with a Chapter on Self-management.
This work is declared by Professor Savage, Surgeon, to be the
best book we have on Nervousness. At home from 11 to 3. .."
This GREAT ANATOMICAL DISCOVERY was followed by
his second great discovery. The means of removing all Ner-
vous or Mental Disease. By these discoveries he cured himself
of a deep rooted Nervous Complaint of 14 years duration. And,
as 30 years ago nobody could cure these complaints, or can
now, but himself, he has for 30 years cured them from benevo-
lence rather than gain; and, out of 14,000 nobles, nobleses,
M.P.'s, admirals, generals, barristers, clergymen, physicians,
surgeons, tradesmen, &c. &c., he knows not 20 uncured who
have followed his advice. AU therefore may now apply per-
sonally, or by letter, with more confidence of a cure than of
tooth ache, and especially of mental depression, debility and
exhaustion, delusions, blood to the head, vertigo, groundless
fear, failure of memory, incapacity for study, business, &c.,
inquietude, wretchedness, indecision, melancholy, thoughts of
self-destruction, involuntary blushing, blasphemous thoughts,
sleeplessness, &c. Insanity can be cured with almost equal
certainty.
"THE GREATEST BENEFIT MAN CAN BESTOW ON MAN IS
TO EASE AND HEAL HIS DISTRESSED MIND."

This has been the delightful employment of the Rev. Dr.
Willis Mosely for 30 years ; and among the thousands he has
cured of Nervousness, he with pleasure names a late Member
of Parliament, who after having 30 physicians in vain for five
years, avowed his cure, and presented the Doctor with a check
of £250, and a niece of the late Lord Hill, who had been ner-
vous 30 years, Sir J. B—, the wife of Capt. 5- d, Sir David
L—, Mr. B—, of Luton, Miss J—, of Dublin, and Lady Hart-
land after Marsh, Crampton, Esquerol, and Penel tried six
years in vain; Admiral P—, Plymouth, Rev. W. P. and Rev.
D—, rector of Rev. J—, curate of —, Yorkshire ; J. V.,
Esq., barrister, Mrs. D. Stockton-on-Tees, &c. &c. On appli-
cation, addresses can be obtained and reference given, and
every statement borne out by facts.
Terms :—Means of cure sent to all parts. A majority are
cured in six weeks. The extra means of cure are used here.
