      Western" Bank of ScotxaivD . ^—Between £ 20 and ¦ JB 3 . 0 per share will be returned to those shareholders who paid in full the calls . Of course those who compromised will not participate in this return , On 'Change ; at Glasgow ; ori Wednesday , Western Bank shares were considered worth . £ 30 . — -North British Mail . American Grain . —A letter from Toronto says : — " It is estimated by our best judges that the stock of ilour and wheat on hand in the seaports of this continent ¦ will barelysuffice till the end of July ; and if there is nothing more to be expected from the interior , grain must bo imported from Europe . There is , however , no means of estimating what may yet come from Illinois ; Wisconsin , Indiana , and Ohio , all of which great grain states had , it appears , good crops of wheat ..

      Mediterranean Telegraph . —Letters received by the Mediterranean Extension Telegraph Company from their agents assume that the existing fracture to the cable bet ween Malta and Cagliari will be found off Trapani , on the coast of Sicily . The damaged portion , when discovered , will have to bo taken . up and a new piece spliced on , an operation which will probably not be completed , for at least five or six weeks to come . , Telegraphs a Part ojt our Postal System . —

      The Houso of Lords seems disposed to legislate upon telegraphs or , at all events , to take telegrams into their consideration . Various returns have been called for , and the attention of the House has been repeatedly drawn to the desirability of making the Inland and Submarine Telegraphs part and parcel of our postal system . It is thought that groater development of the telegraph system would result from this change than is possible under its existing conditions , while a low and uniform ratq of charge would probably take the place of the prpsent high

      rates . The Bankruptcy Law . — A meeting of merchants and other , traders took place on Tuesday , Mr . 11 W . Crawford , M . P ., in the chair , upon the question of the amendment of the law of Bankruptcy . At a meeting in November last a committee was appointed to consider the bills introduced in Parliament by the Lord Chancellor and Lord John Russell . After a careful examination of the provisions of the two Acts the committee are of opinion that tine Debtor « nd

      Creditor Bill of Lord Chelmsford exhibits many deficiencies , and should be firmly opposed , while they recommond a steady support to Lord John llusscll ' d scheme , which it was stated will receive some important additions . The committee also propose to refer the bill to a select committee , under whoso superintendence every proper amendment may be introduced . After a short discussion , in the course of which the evils of tho present system were forcibly pointed out by Mr . fe . Morley and other speakers a resolution was carried to present a petition to Parliament ; , embodying tho views of the committee .

      TiiE Mineral Trapes of South WALES .- ^ Bpth the iron and coal trades , the staple productions of South Wales , show increased firmness ^ several large Orders both for home and foreign consumption having been received . Railway iron continues steady , and various French orders are being supplied ; and as the stocks in the hands of the consumers have been reduced to the lowest point they are no w being compelled to buy . Steam coals meets with a steady sale at improving rates , and an increasing demand is appar rent owing partly to the satisfactory nature of the late experiments . Coal for house consumption is also sold freely * and in the Aberdare ¦ valley a move from the recent severe depression is apparent . The revival of trade is affording increased employment , and various improvements and extensions are being carried on at some of the works . The mineral field . at Penydarren lias been sold to the Dowlass Iron

      Company . Society ^ of Arts . —At the last weekly meeting the paper read was " On Trade Marks , " by Professor Leone Devi . The author pointed out the importance of the British manufacturer continuing to maintain the high character he had gained in the markets of the world , and for this purpose it was necessary not only that no deterioration should take place in the quality of the articles produced by him , but also that no ' idea should gain currency that such deterioration had taken place . It was / therer fore , of the first importance that their marks should never be placed upon . goods of an inferior quality ; but , unfortunately , though there was no fear of such a suicidal act upon the part of the manufacturer himself , others , in many instances , imitated his trade mark , and thus not only deprived him of the profits due to the merits of his production , but , by

      selling an inferior article under his name , tended gradually to destroy his commercial reputation . The imitation of a trade mark was illegal in this country , though there were cases in which thelaw had been evaded , some of which were mentioned . It did not appear , however , that any material alteration in the English law bearing upon this subject was wanted ; but in some foreign countries such palpable fraud took place , owing to the imitation of many of our trade marks , that serious loss , both of profit and character , was sustained by tire British manufacturer . The country where this might almost be said to have become a system was Prussia , and ^ the author showed various curious instances of the imitation of the niarks of She ffield manufacturers and others by their German imitators , the occasional mistakes in the spelling of English words and names making the inutation even more evident than it would otherwise have been .
