The general feehng is, as I have already stated, that the jury will ignore the bills of indictment, and that there will thus be an abrupt end put to the pro ceedings ; but a rumour which has prevailed to the ,gist that in such an event a nolk prosequi would be entered in the ems of the priests, Burke and Clone, seems to be satisfactorily contradicted by the statement made last evening by Lord Aberdeen in the Rouse of Lords. The Mail publishes the follow ing list of the persons who have been most active in raising a fund for the defence of the militari a at the trial:—The Duke of M anc h es t er , Earl of adon Earl of Dono ug h more , E ar l o f R oden, Earl of Erne, Viscount Castlemaine, Viscount Lorton, Lord Talbot de Malahide, Arthur Guinness, FA., Dublin; Pen soeby Barker, D.L., Tipperary ; William Malley, J.P., county Mayo ; Jame s Sinc lair, D.L., county bTyrone; Thomas Evans, R.N., J.P. ; Earl of Ennis n. Ile Lord Lieutenant presided last evening at a meeting of the Royal Dublin Society, held for the distribution of pr e mi u m s t o th e students of the Go 'eminent School of Design. Only the male Put were brought forward t o receive the prizes, and Excellency intimated that the Countess of St. Ger mans would attend an Wednesday next to preside at the distribution to the females.

The railway market, on the whole, was fiat to-day, but the decline was partial, and, with the exception of Caledonian, which receded considerably, the rule don in prices was not great. East Lancashire, Oxford and Worcester, Manchester and Sheffield, and South-Eastern closed worse, but other stocks were generally fairly supported, and Great Northern slightly improved. This department is inactive. French shares were generally dull, but the late advance is fairly supported. The Paris Bourse has been leas buoyant for the last two days, but there is no change of moment either in Paris or here. Namur and Liege shares are firmer. THIS DAY.—Two o'Cumnr. The railway market opened rather fiatly, but has since rallied, and now wears a firmer appearance. Lancashire and Yorkshire 'tack has recovered from 771 to 781; and London and North Western from 120 to 121. Great Northern, Midland, and Caledo nian, are also better. Business is the reverse of active. French lines are very quiet. SHAUN AND No 1•41 a, up 1.1 p.a. No. lb. MDOZUANIKtOII. Pd prima yudaday. MOW 110 4wdraliss Agri— 33 250 ISO 113,71! Awe.

The market for British mining stocks continues very strong there being a preponderance of buyers over sellers. Business to-day has been moderately active, but good prices are in all cases readily to be realised. We hear of sales in Devon Great Consols, at 455, 460; Botallack, 600; Cara Brea, 864; West Providence, 541; Tremayne, 28, 1; Trees* 191; Alfred Consols, 18, ; Bell and Lanarth, 14 ; Erg= Llee, 10; Tavey Console, 56, 6; Tineroft, 111, 1; Heroddoot, 12, 13; Balnoon, 91, 10; Marilyn, 41,1; Wheal Edward, 31: Wheal Golden, 31, 1; Glided( United, 11; Hennock,l 81; Spearne Con sols, 101; Trethevy, 2 ; North Trelawney, 61; East Black Craig, 275. 6d., 325. 6d. ; Wheal Gustaf, 11; Drakewalls,6l, 7 ; Mendip Hill., 71, ; South Tamar, 71,1; East Tamar, 2; St. Dar United, 21 prem.; Cwm Darren, 17s. ; North Towy, 15s. 9d. ; Kit bricken, 4, 5 ; Charchstoire, 1/. The gol d mining share; were leas active to-day, but generally good. The Australian descriptions are chiefly in favour, and firm in price. Nouveau Mondes have slightly receded frees their advance of rioter day, but are still firm. There have been a good many inquiries for the shares of the Mexican and South American Com pany, which have reached 61. The shares of the General Mining Company are also firmer. The shares in the Worthing Mining Company of Australia, with 10s. paid, have been done at 1. The non-official quotations are :—Australasian Coal, Ito 1 prem.; Australian Consols, 1 to 1 prem. ; Australian Mutual, par to 1 prem. ; Adelaide Land and Gold, die. to par; New South Wales Gold Mines, par to 1 prem.; Albion Gold,l to 1 prom. ; Melbourne Gold, to 1 per share; Lewis Hill Range, Ito dia.; L'Aigle d'Or. 1 dis. to par ; Garnett and Moseley, par to prem. ; Golden Mountain, Ito 1 du; Worthing (new shares), to dia.; Burns' Creek Gold, dim. to par; Gladbach Zinc, 11 to 21 prem.; the Ardennes of Belgium, 1 to prem.; Brazilian Diamond and Gold, to I prom.; Pontgibund Silver Lead, par to 1 pram.; Port Royal and St. Andrew Copper, 11 to 2 prem.; Jamaica Copper, Ito 1 prem.; La Peruvienne, Ipar to Iprem. ; Sulphate of Barytes, 1 dia to ; Mizen Head,/ to 1 prem.; Kenmore, 1 to 1 prem.; Conne mara, prem. ; Glenaulin, par to 1 prem.; Carberry West, par to 1 prem. THIS DAY.—Two o'CLocz. The market for the gold mining shares remains well supported, but there is only a very limited bu siness going forward. Prices exhibit no quotable chan. Th g er e e is a further rise in the shares of the Mexi can and South American Company, which have reached 'II. The Australian Land Company's shares are quiet, but North British Australasian and Scot tish Australian Investment continue in favour. MONEY MARKET. "tISDAT EVIIIIIIIO. There was again an entire absence or nactitiston in the English funds ta.day. but the tone was Aria, ..ae market closed at iii best point. There was more inquiry for money in the Stock Exchange, and 2to 21 per cent. is the current quotation. In Lom bard-street there continues to be a fair demand for mercantile accommodation, but 3 per cent., the Bank of England minimum, is the lowest ratefor discounts. The railway market at present exhibits the feature of an absence of supply or demand to any extent. The public appear to be operating very sparingly, and consequently the current transactions of the market rest principally . with the dealers. At the eommencement of business in this department a favourable feeling was induced by some pnr 'items against names overdue from the last settle ment, to-morrow being " buying-in" day. Subse quently other operators for a fall also became Sayers, induced by the steadiness of the funds and securities in general. The prospect of early arrivals of gold from Australia, owing to the change of wind, oleo has some infinenes. When these actually take place, however, it is very probable the effect will not be by any means so great as might have been anticipated, as many " balls" will tae advantage of any rise to realise. Any downward movement si d r at eemelseeN ac ' ar y be observei is promptly the of Ida*, the pub* showing every disposition to holld at present. Consols maintained a firm appearance throughout the day at 991 to 1 for money, and 991 for the 10th March. At the final close of he market they were 991, buyers for money and sellers for time. Support was afforded by the renewal of purchase's in this stock on government account, but business alto gether is very inactive. The official price list is an nexed :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 991, 4, 1 ditto for account, 991. Three per Cents. Reduced,; 1001, 1. Threeeand-a-Quarter per Cents., 1031, 1. Long Annuities, 1860, 61, 7-16. Annui ties of 30 years, 1880, 8 3-18. India Stock, 269. Bank Stock, 227. Exchequer Bills were rather steadier to-day, bat with no rally in prices worth mentioning. The lune issue was quoted 10e. to 203. prem., and the advertised bills ss. to 15s. prem. There was business in India Bonds at 501. prem. The foreign bond market is generally very firm. Spanish and Mexican bonds showed an upward ten dency, and Russian, Sardinian, Dutch, and Grena dian, were well supported. The Spanish Commit tee's Certificates advanced to 64 per cent. There is, however, an absence of movement in this department. The list of saes is as follows:—Brazilian Old Five per Cents., small bonds, 103) ditto Four-and-a-Half per Geste., 1852, 97/. Dutch Four per Cent. Certi ficates, 99, 981. Granada Deferred Bonds, 111. Mexican Three per Cents., 24. Russian Five per Cents., 121, 120 4 ; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1031. Sardinian Five per Cents., 941, 1. Spanish New Deferred Three per Cents., for account, 28th February, 23 1 , 4 ; ditto Passive (Converted), 61; the Committee's Certificates, 51, 61 per cent. Swedish Mortgage Loan, 11, 11 dim. The sommittee of Portuguese bondholders have issued ',notice to their constituents, cautioning them not to convert or part with their present bonds or coupons in arrear. The committee add : " The reve nue arising from the Lisbon and Oporto customs being specially pledged for the payment of the divi dends at the exchange of 55d. per milrei, the committee are advised that this speciality places the bondholders l in a position to require the interference of the British government, to see that each assignment shall be faithfully observed on their behalL" The third instalment of 20 per cent. falls due on the Ist March on the bonds of the Swedish Provin cial Mortgage Loan, negotiated through Messrs. Palmer, Mackillop, Dent, and Ca _ There were some transaesiees to-day, to a limited amount, in bar silver at bs. ltd. per ounce standard, being a rise of id., as compared with the price of the last sale. The market is almost bare of this metal, both in bars and dollars, but supplies are looked for by the in-coming West India steamer. The half-yearly meeting of the Southampton Dock Company was held to-day, when a dividend was declared of Bs. per share, being at the rate of 11.125. per cent. per annum. The statements exhibited showed a most satisfactory increase of receipts, and great confidence is expressed in the future prospe rity of the company, arising from the increasing traffic of the port of Southampton. Securities connected with Australia were again firm today, with a good business. Australian Agri cultural reached 257, and closed 250 to 255. Ex the Peel River shares, the price opened 116 to 120, and closed 110 to 115. There were also dealings in London and Westminster Bank at 38; Oriental Bank Corporation, 60, 491; LondooDoe.ks, 1281; Austra lian Royal lan Steam (61. paid), 61; British Assist, can Land, 54 Crystal Palace, 51; General BOW Steam Shipping (121. paid), 12 ; Peninsular and Oriental Steam, 87; ditto (251. paid), 60; Submarine •Telegraph Company (11. paid), 1,1. There have been numerous transactions lately in the Four per Cent. Preference shares of the Stockton and Darlington Railway Company at 251. 10s. per share, or 10s. premium. These shares were created by resolution of the general meeting of the 27th June, 1861, for the purpose of paying off the debt of the company, and have the same prior claim on the revenue of the line, in respect of their 4 per cent. preferential intere st, as the existing debentures. The debt of the company was 660,0001., and the act provides that the aggregate amount of debentures and preference shares that may be issued shall never exceed that sum. In addition to the 4 per cent. preference interest, the coca y, by resolution of ' their general meeting, agreed that after the old shares shall have received 4 per cent., the surplus profits should be divided with the preference shares, up to 5 per cent. The capital of the Stockton and Darling ton Railway Company consists of 16,000 shares of 251. each, on which about 360,0001. has been called up. The dividend proposed on the original shares for the half-year ending 31st Dec., 1852, is at the rate of 3 per cent. per annum. The net income of the company for the four last half-years, after pay ment of the interest on the debentures, in place of which the present preference shares were issued, was es follows : For the half-year ending 30th June, 1851 £27,438 Ditto ditto 31st Dec., 1851 34,388 Ditto ditto 30th June, 1852 Ditto ditto 31st Dee., 1862 34,746 The non-preference shares of the Stockton and Darlington Railway, of 251. each, fully paid up, were done at 201. to-day. We also hear of trinsactions in the bonds of the Great Western Railway of Canada, convertible in 1857 and redeemable in 1862, at 1081. The quotations of stocks at Amsterdam on Monday are thus reported by Mr. Renter's telegraphic ex press :—Dutch Four per Cents., 964; ditto Iwo-and a-Half per Cents., 651. Spanish Deferred Three per Cents., 23 13-16. Mexican New, 24 7-16. Portu guese New, 381. The Spanish Committee's Certifi cates, 5 3-16. Auatrian Five per Cent. Metallics, 82/. Spanish Old Three per Cent., foreign, 481. In the market for foreign exchanges to-day there was scarcely any variation from the rates of lest post, except for Italian places, bills on which were in great demand. For Paris and Hamburg there appears to have been rather more money over than last post. Spanish places may be quoted a shade lower. On the whole it would appear that the rally in the foreign exchanges has received a check. The list of prices negotiated is thus rendered : vise. Priem es negotiated this day. Dille sod M. Money.

They are, however, of much importance as showing that during the closing month (December) of the last year trade generally was increasing in a greater ratio than at any former period. This, indeed, is sufficiently proved by the statement of the declared value of the exports of British and Irish produce and manufac factures for the month and 12 months, as given below : For the month. For 12 months. 1853 i6,149,414 1852 1851 The increase on the corresponding mouth of 1852 is no less than 971,0271., or 18 per cent., a great por tion of which must be owing to the activity now ob servable in the Australian trade.

Russell, embarked on board the Sprightly, steamer, this afternoon, for convey ance to Plymouth. The Vengeance was paid down a fort night since and part of her crew granted 14 drys' leave. She was fit ted out at this port, a large number of her men belonging to it, and having wives and families here. They consequently made application to the Commander-in-Chief at Plymouth for a steamer to bring them round. This request (which would have entailed but a small expense, the steam tug Avon being entirely disengaged, while the Rhadanum thus steamer was actually under orders for this port) was not granted, and the men had to come round by railway at an expense of about 34. to each. Much dissatisfaction was the result, the men declaring they would not go to a similar expense, to the injury of their families, in re turning. They accordingly determined to deliver themselves up on board the Victory, flag-ship, here ; but the Sprightly was ordered to take them round. The ruggarCiutoe referred to above is an incon sistency on the part of the naval iiuthorities, for last :reek the Barracoute, steamer, was sent round from Chatham to this port and Plymouth with the men paid off from the Castor, 36. The Agamemnon, 91, screw steam-ship, Cap tain Sir T. Maitland, came into harbour to-day from Spit head. The sickners on board this vessel is declining.

It is reported that the Basilisk, steam sloop, Commander Egerton, will tow her as far as the Land's End. The Illustrious, 72, up in ordinary, is ordered to be brought down the harbour to be docked. She is to be converted into a block ship, to be stationed outside the harbour as a de fent* to the harbour channel. She will mount 40 guns of heavy calibre, and will form an excellent floating battery. She will not be fitted with the screw, being intended for stationary duty.
