The demand for India continues to support the market. The subjoined calculations show the rate per cent. per annum yielded by our government stocks at present prices. To render the results st rictly accurate the proportion of interest which may ha.a accrued since last dividend period should in each case be taken into account. It should also be remembered that the Three-and-a-Quarter per Cent. heeowts • Three per Cent. stock in 1854. The settlement of the account in railway shares is in progress, and exercises the chief influenoe in this market, the new translations being few. Prices ex hibit scarcely the least change. London and South Western stuck is rather higher. French shares and Sambre and Meuse are lower.

The English funds remain steady at the advance erablished last week, as a little weakness which was at one time observable passed off prior to the final close of the market. On the whole, this was a remarkably quiet day in the several department, of the market, many of the dealers taking a holiday. To morrow, and dialing the two succeeding days, the dealers will be busily engaged in the arrangement of the account in foreign stacks, mines, and railways, which promises to be extraordinarily heavy, and to give occasion to a great demand for money. Consols ruled throughout the morning at 100; to 101 ex dir, for the opening of the 18th January, and although a declism of was shown towards three o'clock, yet subs«iment to that hour the feeling was hever again, and 1001 may be taken as the closing Few transactions took place.

Allow ance must also be made for the improving traffic. At the meeting of the Electric Telegraph Company of Ireland, held today, it %%as resolved that applica tion should be made to parliament fur an act to limit the liability of the shareholders, and confer adAi tional powers on the company. The bill is prepared, and will be lodged on the 29th, in order to comply with the standing orders. THIS DAY—Two o'CLocw. There is very little alteration in the EngEl stock I market to-clay, business very limited, and attention chiefly directed to the settlement of the account in the other departments of the house. Owing, however, to the prevalent demand for money, the feeling of the market is a shade weaker. Consols have ranged between 100; and 101, the present quotation being 1004 ex div. for the opening.

We have been visited by another tempest, equal in violence to that of Saturday morning, but exored iog it so much in duration that the former seemed only • passing gust compared with the terrific storm which has been raging since about ten o'clock last night, and which, while I write (between 7 nod 8 o'clock, a.m.) still blows with unabated fury. Coming into town this morning I saw a noble elm torn up by the roots, and it can be easily imagined that the streets are not in a very secure state with falling slates and chimney-tops. As the wind is nearly due west, and therefore blowing off the land, few of the skipping diameters, which must be the inevitable re ' molts of this fearful gale, may be expeov.ed to occur as this portion of the Irish coast ; and at this early War I have not been able to ascertain whether much amp has been sustained by the shipping in the eiese.

In my opinion the I MOM of the earthquake wee tie let of the volcano of Taal being closed for the last hundred years ; but dace the earthquake we were all again startled by a lout report, like that of artillery, but which proved to be the opening of the crater of that moustain, which has since been in active epgration, and I have hope that we will not have a revival olthe earthquakes, sad that I may never again ex pellent such dreadful feelings.

The chief change was in Mexican Bonds, which fell to 231. The revolutionary movements appear to be extending, but it would seem as if the accounts given by the American papers of the declaration of the auxexation of Sonora to France were founded upon some mistake. Perhaps the movement of some petty marauding leader, with a few hundred ragged followers, has been magnified, as on previous occa sions, into& political change of grave importance. The mineral riche.; of Sonora are by many persons believed to belittle inferior to thoseof the neighbour ing state of California, and her secession from the federal union of Mexico would be equally a disaster to that republic, and a rich acquisition to any state which might be bald enough to attempt to extend its power over her. In some of the newspaper accounts it is stated that Tampico is in the hands of the in surgents, hut this piece of intelligence, which is of importance to the bondholders, as this is one of the ports from which they derive, or ought to derive, • considerable portion of their revenue, also requires confirmation. With reference to the proposed resignation of the chair man and deputy-chairman of the committee, it is un derstood that u meeting of the bondhcldeis will be convened for next month, when a statement of the position of their affairs wit be laid before them. By the constitution of the committee the resignsdion of any of its members must be presented to the bond holders themselves. It is generally remarked that the chairman and deputy-chairman appear to have consulted more their owu ease than the interests of the bondholders, or they certainly would not have fixed upon the present moment for their resignation, this being a crisis in the affairs of Mexico which requires all the vigilance of an united committee. However, anything is better than a body divided against itself, and we hope, for the sake of the bondholders, that before the meeting takes place an united and respectable committee will be ready to receive their suffrages. In Peruvian Deferred Bonds there was a renewal of operations, and the price showed an upward ten dency. Turkish scrip receded to par. The list of bargains is thus reported:—Brazilian Old Five per Cents., 1021; ditto, Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1832, 99, 981. Buenos Ayres Six per Cents., 74. Equador Bonds, 51, 1.

Business in Australian securities was quieter to day, but there were again a good many transactions in Australian Agricultural shares, which reached 283, and left off 273 to 280. This company are un dt rstood to have received advice, which lolly con firm the accounts previously to hand. The shares of the Peel River Mining Company reached 16 to 17, and left off 14 to 13 premium. The list of mis cellaneous share transaction, is thus reported : Bank of Australasia, 831; Bank of British North America, 63 ; Chartered Bank of India, Australia, and China, 31, 1 ; English, Scottish, and Austra lian Chartered Bank, 51; London Chartered Bank of, Australia, 5 ; London and Westminster Bank, 33 ;' South Australian Banking Company, 48; Union Bank of Australia, 731, 1, 74 ; Australian Agri cultural, 278, 272, 283, 279, 282, 273, 280, 1 278 ; South Australian Land, 52, 60, 53, 63; Van Diemen's Land, 21, 1 ; Crystal Palace, 41, 5 ; Peninsular and Oriental Steam, 89, 91, 90 ex. dir. ; Australian Ro3 al Mail Steam, 5.

This was settling day for the shares of the Royal Swedish Railway Company, which were actually transacted as low as 1 din. 1' hie decline in the shares of an undertaking which has a positive guarantee of 5 per cent. per annum from the government of Sweden affords evi dence of the justice of our observations on the apathy with which these new undertakings are re garded by the public ; but the decline in the present instance was also partially attributable to weak holders being driven into the market to realise, in stead of carrying over unsuccessful " bull" transac tions at a heavy charge. A charge of 1-32 per share was in some cases paid for carrying over, being at the rate of some 40 per cent. per annum. The quantity of gold on its way to this country by the screw steamer Australian is larger than reported by some of the journals. She left Port Phillip, with the mails for England and 130,000 ounces of gold, 11 days before the Marco Polo (which has amvcd at Liverpool), and had arrived at Adelaide, whence she was to sail with 65,000 ounces more of the precious metal, so that we have here a total of 215,000 ounces, worth 860,0001. The amount of gold brought in by the Marco Polo is not exactly ascertained, but is believed to be about 100,0001. Letters from Mel bourne further state that the Calpharnia, Captain Nicholson, had cleared for London with 56,177 ounces of gold on freight, worth about 224,00 W. The amount of the specie and bullion brought in by the Peninsular and Oriental Cominny's steamer Hadilington is 13,000/., of which 12,3004 is from Australia and the rest from Malta.
