CITY , Friday Evening . The returns of . the Bank of Prance , which we announced last week to be very satisfactory , have tins week led to the reduction of its minimum rate ol discount from 3 £ to 3 per cent . The alteration , was expected , and has had no conspicuous effect on the value of securities , though it has increased conjectures as to the period when the Bank of England will further reduce its rate of discount . The gold continues to increase in this establishment as well
as in the Bank of France , and the general abundance Of the metal in the reserves of all the banking establishments of Europe assures us that here and elsewhere the owners of money will lower their terms for loans . Till the dividends are paid , probably the Bank of England will make no alteration , but that payment which will p lace some six millions in the hands of the public will tend to make money cheaper and bring about a further reduction in the rate . The only chance of arresting the fall is a great demand for the purposes of trade , of which we see no si ^ ils . Trade is everywhere healthy , is steadily progressive , and not likely to expand suddenly . Nor is-there a ripple more speculation crossing the quiet ocean of trade than there was last week . xxr ~ * . «« ,-. /» ¦ ' cJo-ne up ± of the inflation with
which a contemporary has threatened us , and a considerable time must elapse before even a preternatural cheapness of money can restore the confidence and the hopes which are essential to a great increase of credit . .... The delay in giving the public official information of the exact terms of the treaty with China naturally excites some discontent . In Russia and Erance the Governments have not allowed their subjects to be dependent merely on newspaper reports ; but our people , who have a far deeper interest on the terms of the treaty than either the Russians or French , are not informed of them . A poor and short summary of some of the principal conditions is all that has vet reached the English public .
We believe that they anticipate too much from the treaty ; we know that its presumed effects on opening China to our trade are much exaggerated ; but erroneous notions in the people can be no justification of the M inistry for withholding from the public the official document . When it comes it will not immediately increase our exports to China , for experience has clearly taught our merchants that something more than treaties—their own exertions and sagacity—are necessary to extend trade . The treaty is one of the circumstances which will probably contribute to increase our prosperityi but only in a trifling degree . We must not forget that part of the present quietness of the market is due to the absence from iiiwuuau oiwiv
. London ot many 01 me prmuiniu w , - brokers , and speculators . . There is nothing to tempt them to come to town , and they are prolonging their customary holidays . In the mean time , however , the great work of production is actively going on throughout the country , and the not less important business of consumption , for which alone production takes jrlaco , is in no degree suspended . Qri the contrary , it is as active as ever , and is daily becoming more active . We may look , thorcforo , for somewhat more activity in tho City when the holidays have come finally to an end . ... . .- ¦ ¦ ¦¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ' ¦•¦¦¦ ¦ Consols , after remaining 97 f to \ all day , after business hours loft off P 7 f ; and railways wory all bettor at the olose about \ to A per cent .

The Spezzia-Cagliari Telegraph . —The Tnest Zeitunq learns from Turin that there is a lawsuit pending between the Spezzia-Oagliari Telegraph Company and Mr . Brett . The company demands from the engineer 1 600 OOOf . as an indemnification for the loss it sustained by the two unsuccessful attempts to lay the cable , and Mr . Brett claims from the company a further payment of 400 , 000 f . The process is likely to be a lengthy one . Danube Steam Servtck . —According to letters from Lyons , the French company of the Rhone hopes it will be able next spring to open a service of steamers on the Danube . It is thought that , before that period , all the difficulties raised by the hostile feeling of Austria will be completely removed . Agents of the company are at this moment engaged in establishing at Pesth and Presburg the stations required for the undertaking .
Trade in France—There was no improvement in the trade of Paris or the departments during the last week . Considerable distress prevails among the tradesmen of Paris , a fact proved by the number of sales by execution which take place every day . Sales by auction have become so numerous that the public saleroom is being for the second time enlarged . Accounts from the departments speak of dull markets , and the last weekly returns of the receipts of the railway-companies show a falling off in the majority of them . Dock Extension at Liverpool . —It is again announced that the dock accommodation of Liverpool is inadequate to her rapidly increasing shipping trade . Mr . Rankin , Chairman of the Finance Committee of the Mersey Dock Board , has laid before his colleagues a statement , at considerable length , of the additional dock be
and street space , which he considers to imperatively demanded . This comprises the construction at the north of the present dock-range of a half-tide basin , with slips , quays , and locks , in connexion with the inland navigation , a timber dock of 20 acres , and two new streets , 60 feet in width . The estimated cost of this portion of the scheme to be 165 , 000 * . At the south of the dock range Mr . Rankin proposes to improve tho Harrington and Herculaneum Dock sections at the cost of 187 , 000 / . and 500 , 000 / . respectively . Mr . Rankin shows clearly enough that the resources of the estate warrant the trustees in an application to Parliament for power to raise 600 , 000 ? . for these purposes , besides some 250 , 000 / . for extra warehouses and sheds . A fresh issue of Liverpool bonds may therefore be looked for in tho courso of the spring .
Pkrsecutiox of Jews in Persia . —It was announced aomo months ugo that oil the Jewish inhabitants of Herat had been deported to Meahed , on tho plea that they had assisted the Horatecs in their opposition to Poraia . nnd that they wore iu the pay of the English . Tho Bombay Gazette publishes a letter from Teheran , dated tho ' l 3 th April , 1858 . This letter reports tho Jews to bo in a most grievous plight . All thoir young women have boon violated , they are allowed no food , and numbers perish daily from exhaustion . Colonel Taylor , during his » tn . v at Meshed , gave tho Jews provisions , and remonstrated with tho loonl authorities . Directly alter his departure , however , tho Jews wore trautud with as groat rigour us formerly .

Tho shareholders , Uo « - evGr , vutod ouo hundred guineas to tho widow , as a mark of sympathy , Such an instance of good fueling as the above is calculated to raise tho company high in public estimation .
