Loxpon, Oct. 17, 1878. The Henatp correspondent in Paris tele- graphs under date of yesterday as fol- lows:—“‘The Bourse was agitated to-day, and the variations in quotations were inces- sant from the opening to the close. This ‘was caused by the fall of the German mar- kets and the announcement that the Bank of France had raised the rate of discount to three per cent. The liquidation of the fortnight was effected under unsatisfactory conditions. The closing prices were:— Five per cent rentes, 112f. 50c.; do. threes, TAf. 80c.; Italian fives, 72f. 70c.” CONDITION OF GLASGOW YESTEEDAY. From Glasgow the Hanaup correspondent reports as follows :—‘‘Another local failure to-day swells the list of disasters in this afflicted city—viz, Brown, McLeod & Adam, fancy goods manufacturers. ‘Their liabilities are £16,000. Other failures were freely rumored during the day, but none were definitely announced, owing to this (Wednesday) being settling day. Business at the Glasgow Stock Exchange was’ re- stricted and. prices were steadier and even Pig iron quotations were slightly improved. THE COMING OFFICIAL STATEMERT. “The official statement ofthe affairs of the broken Glasgow Bank is in course of prep- aration by Dr. McGregor and Mr. Anderson, and is expected to be submitted to the di- rectors on Friday. It is uncertain whether the document will be published previous to the meeting of shareholders, which has been called for Tuceday, the 22d. A HARVEST FOR THE LAWYERS. “The bank catastrophe promises to afford a golden opportunity for the lawyers, P. Abernethy & Son, warehousemen and manu- facturers, bring an action against the City of Glasgow Bank for the delivery of bills amounting to three hundred and odd in number. Abernethy & Son had an account current, with s considerable balance, but the bank refused to retire the bills out of the fands in its possession.” POTTER, WILSON & CO,’S AFFAIRS, Statements have been prepared of the affairs of Potter, Wilson & Co. Their liabilities are £216,167; assets, £162,039. On the debt side, and not included in the above totals, appear the following items:— “Obligations on account of City of Glas- gow Bank, bills and credits for third par- ties, wholly or partially secured, £155,870. “Contingent liabilities on consignment and other bills estimated to be fully cov- ered, £32,492.” In the same way on the credit side is the item:—‘‘Securities held as trust for the City of Glasgow Bank, credits and other guarantees, £184,956.” POTTER'S PERSONAL ESTATE. Lewis Potter’s personal estate shows, liabilities, £16,451; assets, £144,825.

THB GEXERAL FEELING. A firm of local iron brokers failed at Gias- gow on Tuesdsy. Their abilities are $50,000. Two other ifailures, said to be heavy, have occurred, but they have not yet been oMoially announced. The gen- eral feeling is more quiet, but private and joint stock banks still reuse accommodations, and throw this class of business entirely upon the Bank of England, where as much as eight per cent was charged ‘or loans yesterday. Should the Bank of France raise its rate of discount to-morrow, as predicted in some quarters, a further advance in the Bank of Engiand’s rate is deemed inevitabie.

At Preston, Ninemo’s mills, with 30,000 spindles, and Sharple’s milis, with 32,500 have ceased running.

Business in the Excnange is, however, very flat; in tact, almost paralyzed, and apprehensions are ireely expressed that @ panic may tuke place ‘The low prices quoted for securities are in sympa- thy witn the disturbing reports from Paris. THE DISCOUNT HOVERS. A qgieam of comiort has been found in the fact that banks and discount houses are to-day some- what more accommodating with advances and less exacting in the matter of collateral securities. THE BANK OF FRANCE ‘The Bank of France has this aiternoon ratsed its Fate of discount to three per cent, and money will become much dearer forthwith in this city. THE CONTINBNTAL BXCHANGES. Despatches recetved irom the Continental Ex- changes show continued dulness and want of con- fidence. THE PANIO IN GLASGOW.

Three fatlures are an- nounced there this morning, one of which is an old established and respected firm of iron brokers, THE BANK OF THE CITY OF GLASGOW. ‘These failures are said to be directly attributable to the recent suspension of the Bank of the City of Glasgow. The panic is playing sad havoc with the Teputations for stability of the leading iron mer- chants in and around Glasgow.
