Middlesex Abcbjbouoo*Cak Society.— Hithe...
Middlesex Abcbjbouoo * cak Society . — Hitherto , so far as we remember , Middlesex , the metropolitan county—and certainly as rich in subjects of antiquarian ¦ and historical interest as any other county : nv Great Britain—^ has had no special body of archaeologists devoted -to the < care and" preservation of its monuments . A fact so curious is perhaps explained by the assumption that the . metropolitan county must necessarily-chum the chief care of the Royal Society » f Antiquaries , and its ^ Bubsiaiary bodies , the Archaeological Institute and the Archaeological Association . Such , however , is not the case . These Societies display a certain—or we may more truly say an uncertain— -activity in the investigation of historical
antiquities . generally ^ ibut we ^ are not -aware that they charge i-hemselves speciallywith any careof metrqpoUtan monujnents . For example : —there is the Tower . Of all the monuments of past times in England , the Tower of London is first in interest . Inaeedj it has no competitor . Ite story is the "history of England—a history of its court and of its people , oi its best men and most beautiful women —<> f its wars , its pageants , its insurrections , its conquests , its reverses—of its manners , its arts , its arms , its lawfi , 'itSTeligi 0 n , « lmoBt' © f its literature . EveryTOom in the - Tower is a record , -every , stone is monumentaL Yet in our own day parts of this precious edifice have been dug up , thrown down , carted away , and rebuiltwalls have 'been Bcrapea . amd inscriptions removed by ignorant-men , without-a woEd of protest , so iat ^ aswe the
know , from these learned bodies . Care of Tower would alone justify the establishment of a Middlesex Archaeological Society . Then , -there are—Brentford , a world in itself for-the antiquary—Crosby Hall— - 'the old prisons—Westminster -Abbey—Old Xondon Bridge—Old Change—Old St . Paul ' s—St . John ' s Gate—The CnaTterhotise—and a hundred others equally curious and important , most of which are stall open So a good deal * f documentary and other illustration . Such a work < demands earnest workers ; and we are glad to announce a proposal to establish a society for the purpose of assisting to investigate and preserve these Middlesex records of'Our -past life . Iiord LondesbOrough has accepted the office of President , and Mr . G . B . Webb that of provisional Secretary . "—Athenaeum .
"Mir . Croons , a Government contractor at Melbourne , has Tjeen dismissed from his appointment for "having , after drinking a . glass of his Excellency ' s beer , at a vice-regal ball , exclaimed "O Lord I" and walked out of the supper-room ' ? with one hand pressed on his external coating . " The Colonial Secretary , in a letter to the vict im , lays it down as a law that it is the "Soty of all contractors , more especially in public , " to support and countenance all articles of consumption * furnished by official contract .

COiRN MARKET . . Mark-lane , Friday Evening , September 7 , 1855 . A J ? AIB quantity of Foreign Wheat has arrived during the -week but unfavourable ^ reports of the yield of the new crop here and on the Continent , cause extreme firmness in 'the trade , and line conviction gains ground that present . prices . are safe , and may possibly be . greatly exceeded before another harvest . Wheat and Elour are held flcmlyior an sadvance of 1 b . per qr . and sack fromTiloiiday , and at this a fair amount of business has been done- Only a few sales of floating 'cargoes have been made . Galatz on passage has been sold » t ! 7 ls « 72 s ., 72 s . 6 d ., and 73 s ., and a mixed cargo of Egyptian at 4 . 7 s ., all cost , freight and insurance- A cargo of 'Galatz Maiae on passage has been sold at 41 s . 6 d . 03 ms description is held for 42 s ., and Ibrail 41 s . The supply of Barley is rather liberal , and , in the absence of much demand , prices must be noted nominally as on Monday . There is a large supply of Oats , yet with brisk demand , Mondays rates are well maintained .

Money Market And City Intelligence. Frid...
MONEY MARKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE . Friday Evening , September 7 , 1855 . Geeat inactivity still prevails on the Stock Exohange generally , and the English Stock Market continues heavy . Gold tias been in demand for exportation , and the remittances for the Turkish Loan and to pay for silver , which continues to be drawn from the Continent for exportation to India and China , tend to increase the scarcity of the metal . During the week it-was thought on the Stock Exchangejcnrohai ^ r , from the tightness of money , that the Bank of :
Englarid wouia raise Hts -rate of discount , although-a more favourable opinion was held among some bankers Thursday proved the former opinion to be 'correct , as the Bank of Eiwrland raised its minimum rate of discount from 8 J to 4 Dercent . ; but as the event ( had been-expected , and consequently discounted on the Stock Exchange , it did not operate there as a depressing influence ; on -the contrary , Consols closed that day at rather firmer quotations , as Bears , in anticipation of the measure , showed a disposition to buy back . The Lombard-street discount houses also raised on Thursday the rate for money " on call" irom 8 to . 34 per cent . __ j _ _ . ~ Cents
There is no improvement in Turkish "Six per . ; through the week the Stock has been depressed , closing this day at 92 i , 93 A- The New Turkish Four per Gents , also has been flatter , being much held by speculative buyers , like the Turkish Six per Cent . In its early career . Some time must be anticipated for this Stock to attain a firm footing . The Contango was 4 per cent ., no discount being allowed on payment of the instalments by anticipation , and the small amount already paid up renders dt not so much in favour with bankers and -permanent investors as the value of -tho security undoubtedly merits . On'Wednesday its settlement took place , and on Monday that of the . Ardennos Railway , of which company an extraordinary general meeting iaadvertised for tho Wth inat ., to -deliberate upon thejjroposed amalgamation . The receipts for tho week ending Sunday last wore 1007 Z . ; viz ., 814 ? . passengers , ' 28 SZ . goods . Yesterday the September oonsol account passed off quietJy .
