Novel Method Of Connecting And Filing Pa...
Novel Method of Connecting and Filing Papers , & c . Mr . A . F . Walden , of 2 , Stratford-place , Camden-square , a gentleman well known among the prinr cipal Assurance Societies for his inquiries into doubtful , and his successful , detection . of fraudulent , claims , has just brought out a small and very neat machine , by means of which and metal eyelets ( similar to those used for making the brass holes in stays and boots ) « very description of papers and documents , & c , can be neatly and firmly connected in a quick and easy manner . This machine will prove a great acquisition to the office . and the counting-house , and from its manifold uses , as ¦ well as its cheapness , will ere long get into general requisition . " We particularly recommend it to managers ¦ of Assurance Societies and lawyers , and it -will be especially serviceable to public offices .
The Hop DuTY .- ^ -The Excise Hop Duty Kepeal Association have called a meeting of the planters and others , to be held at Tunbridge Wells , on November 5 . The Sussex A dvertiser says that the necessity of an early appeal to the Chancellor of the Exchequer is painfully apparent . The low price realised for any "but hops of the choicest growths , and from the most favoured ¦ districts , and the accumulated pressure of the heavy dnties of the last few years , are rapidly bringing on a crisis in the affairs of a large section of the planters . The duties of a year and a half have to be paid in the next few months , and the utter inability of a numerous Ijody of growers to raise the sum due to the excise is a matter of universal assertion .
The Western Bank .: —The / Scottish Press says : — " We understand that an influential section of the shareholders have had repeated consultations during the past week with eminent counsel . The result is , that they Lave resolved to take immediate steps to apply to the Court of Session for a suspension of the recent call of 100 ? . per share made by the liquidators . Meanwhile , the liquidators have resolved to avail themselves of the recent amendment of the Joint-Stock Companies Act ,
and have instructed their lawyers to institute an action against the directors of the Western Bank for the last ten years — a period which embraces the names of Messrs . Baird , and other gentlemen of great wealth and influence . " The Glasgow Morning Journal says : —¦ " We understand that a summons of reduction , repetition , and damages has been raised and executed by ' one of the shareholders , a lady resident in the east country , against the directors of the Western Bank . This will practically test the question of their liability . "
Gold ik Canada . —Reports of the discovery of gold are again prevalent . The ore , it is said , has been found in small quantities upon the Eagle River , about 100 miles from Ottawa city , up the Gatineau River . The report adds that some Indians made the discovery . How much reliance is to be placed on these rumours it is impossible to say at present . It is also said that lead in a pure state , with zinc , have been found in the same districts . —Canadian News . Spanish Finances . — The Madrid Gazette of the 23 rd contains an order of the Minister of Finance to the effect that whenever a supplementary or extraordinary credit
is granted , the decree making the grant shall set forth by what means the credit is to be paid ; also , if the credit be required at a time at which the Cortes are not Bitting , the Council of State shall report on the urgency and necessity of it . Another order of the same Minister directs that the payment of the coupons of the public debt , both Consols and Deferred , also the dividends on road and railway shares , and on nil kinds of public scrip , shall bo made in the provincial chief towns at tho provincial treasuries . This measure , by encouraging the investment of provincial capital in the public funds , will , it is said , probably increase the upward tendency whioh has been lately manifested in the money-market .
The Soez Canal . —At Marseilles , on Wednesday night , at the banquet given to M . do Lessepa , that gentleman stated : — *? That tho works of the Suez Canal will commence in three months , and that the canal shall be opened in three years . " Telegraph Communication axong tiie Liverpool Dooks . —At the weekly meeting of tho Mersey Dock Board , a letter was reported to have been received from a " Mr . Belcher , hon . secrotary of tho Liverpool Docks Telegraph Company , " in wliich the writer asked if the board would bo inclined to afford any assistance to tho company in constructing a lino of telegraphs along tho docks . Tho chairman said that there would bo no need of any publio company , as tho board tuomsolvoa would of course have telegraphic communication along tho docks and quay aa soon ae their lino to Holybead was completed .
Scottish Australian Investment Company .- ~ -A special meeeting of the Company was hold yesterday . Mr . Dickson in the chair ; the object being to confirm tho conversion of tho shares Into stock , agreed to at a previous mooting , which having been passed , tho mooting adjourned . The prospootua lms also boon Issued of the Scottish Australian Mining Company , with a . capital of 80 , 0007 . in 1 / . shares . Tho object la to work certain mineral proportlos in New South Wales acquired by the Scottish Investment Company , and of which , very favourable roporta have boon received .

This disease , in its first stage , seems oven more amenable to Holloway ' s Ointment and Pills than the simpler forms of imllammatory sore throat .
