Inside the salient the main military centre is Compeigne, while Villers Cotteret is a subsidiary centre. All this fortified territory, which is the the chief remaining bulwark of the capital consists of detached masses di Tising ground lying across the bend of the Oise valley and containing the great roal and railway to Paris.

THE SILVER MARKET.

LONDON, June 6 Mesars. Samuel, Montagu and Company report that the price of silver is unchanged. If the rise of one per cent. in insurance from New York to Londen,
