PEAK TRAMWAYS.

A strong inquiry has set in, in the course of the afternoon, for shares of the Company: They emquate, so far as we understand, from princi- pale in Canton whose Hongkong agàbit are eagerly offering considerably over $7 for shares if procurable in large lots. Until last week they were available to the extent.cf just only, a very few thousand, probably not more than two or three in the open market, at, current prices; but late in the afternoon tolders would not part with their actips. However tempting the offer.

To show the great public interest f.lt and the strong public opinion existing on this subject of the prevention of encroachment on open- spaces I would refer to the existence and sctivity of the *Commons Preservation Society of London which has for its object the prevention of ed croachment upon all lands dedicated to the us Df the public.
