^~ London , Friday Evening , January 22 . Tub funds remain at about 05 . It was confidently asserted that the Bank directors would alter the rate of discount to 4 per cent , this last Thursday , and the state of the money market would seem to justify such a step ; but the numerous new schemes , Brazilian , I ndian , Australian , and Cape of Good Hope railways , that are being announced every day , ' must make the directors , oven against their own interests , exceedingly careful not to give too much play to the speculators . The arrivals of gold have been numerous and heavy , and the bullion will bo probably fourteen millions by this week's return . The French market is watched with anxiety , as the suppression of two journals , and the strong language employed by the Emperor's adherents on the subject of refugees in . England , has frightened the French speculators more than ours . Foreign stooks are at the same prices as last week . Joint Stock Banks have improved in value ; the meetings that have taken place , with but one exception , show the different establishments to bo in a very healthy condition . In French railways there has been a disposition to sell . East Indians guaranteed are firm , excepting some of the smaller shares that stood at very high premiums . Viotor Eramfwuol Loan Is at a discount of two per cent ., and the whole business , it Is feared by some , will prove a Job . There h » Q beon a new Brazilian xaU ww ^ ftaM * .. an 4 . ^ under distinguished patronage—the Rothschilds and Mr Weguelin ; the application for shares has been considerable . Grand Trunk of Oanadas and Groa-t Western of Onnadaa aro slightly firmer . In the homo railway market amongst the heavy shares there has been but little doing . Great Westerns are about ono per rent lower i Brighton stock is lower ; Caledonian ! that will divide C per cent , and carry over a good sum , has Improved ) Covers , and York ana North are also very firm s Great Northern stock , also the A and B of above lino , is iu demand \ IJorwlokn are 084 , and well hold .

Fzbk . —A fire of an alarming character broke out last Sunday , at the Old Lodge , in the county of Surrey , the property of W . Kinnaird Gibbons , Esq .

M ., at which hour two large wheat stacks -were burning , and four others were soon ignited .

P ., presiding . The body was origina ll y formed by separation from the Manchester Chamber of Commerce , owing to some disagreements during the Free-trade struggle . It is now about to reunite with that body . The Surrey Gardens Compajtt . —It was resolved , at an extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders of this company , held on Tuesday in the Music Hall of the gardens , that the affairs of the corporation be wound up voluntarily nnder the Joint-Stock Company Act , 1856 . India and the Opium Trade- —A meeting of the inhabitants of St . Pancras , on the subject of the opium trade , was held on Tuesday evening .

Regis ' s African emigrants , recently arrived at Martinique , made an attempt to escape ; and a plot to the same end among some of the other African labourers has also been discovered .
