Great Northern. were rather firmer, and North British slightly weaker. ----- QOYEKIS EXQUISITE SAUCES exprerly se. wad en the - d Aber Lefts K Onalowes. WALK'.

The English stock market, and the Stock Ex change generally, were quite devoid of any interest ing feature to-day, business shoring extreme dulness is every department. Notwithstanding, however, the very unsatisfactory aspect of political affairs, the fends were steadily supported at the closing range of yesterday, and at one period of the day the ten dency was rather in the direction of improvement. At the does the tone of the market was lees strong. Consols opened and closed at 941 to 1 ex div. for the opening of the 18th January, and advanced in the meantime to 941 to 1. The official business re port is as follows:—Three per Cent. Console, for the opening, 18th January, 941, I 1 ex div.; Three per Cent. Reduced, 941, 4. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 96,951, 961; Long Anus., 1660, 51. Exchequer Bills continue at their rduced range of 3e. to 6s. prem. India Bonds remain quoted par to 35. prem. In the foreign stock market business was on the most restricted scale, and prices showed little change. Spanish was rather flatter. Peruvian Four-and-a- Hal fper Cents. fell 3 per cent., and the Three per Cents. 2 per cent. During the greater part of the day there was great indisposition in the Stock Exchange to tratiseet business in this debt, but in the afternoon the members were more wilting to deed, and trans actions to the extent of 20,000!., either in the way of buying or selling, could probably have been effected in the Four-and a-Half per Cents. at 64 to 66. Rus sian and Mexican stocks were unchanged. At 3 o'clock Mexican Bonds were quoted 241 to 1. Peru vian Three per Cents., 44 to 46. Sardinian, 90 to 92 ex div. Spanish Deferred, 22 to 1. Russian Five per Cents., 112 to 114 ; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 97 to 99. The list of actual sales includes only the following, viz.:—Dutch Four per Cent. Certificates, 951, 96. Granada Deferred Bonds, 8. Greek Bonds ( Blue), 7. Mexican Three per Cents., 24/. Peruvian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 64. Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 981. Spanish New Deferred Three per Cents., 221. It is confidently stated that an agreement has been come to between the London and North Western and Great Western Railway Companies, with the ap proval of Mr. Cardwell, to refer the differences existing between these two companies to the arbitra tion of the Hon. Edward Lawn's, kI.P. for Ripon, and brother of the Earl of Harewood. The imports of the precious metals this week have been extraordinarily large, owing mainly to the arrival of a steamer from Australia. Our list of arrivals comprises :-183,000 ounces of gold on freight by the Victoria steamer from Australia (besides the amount in passengers' hands); 066,061 dela. by the Arabia, from New York; 7,7001. in specie on freight by the steamer Olinda, which has has just arrived from the Brazils ; and 629,942 dole. (of which 124,842 dole. was in gold, and 505,100 dole. in silver) by the La Plata from the West Indies and Pacific. The total value of these arrivals may be stated at about one million sterling, of which only about 100,0001. is actually known to be in silver. It must be recollected, however, that the gold brought in by the Victoria is not yet deliverable. On the other hand, the shipments have been limited. The custom-house statement of the ship ments of the precious metals direct from London during the week ending Thursday last, includes 9,500 ounces, and 1201. in gold, and 156,800 ounces and 1,2001. in silver, representing an aggregate value of -ant 77,0001. sterling. The statement in detail is as follows :—Gold colts! to ?-t_:kuid, 6,006 ounces; to Hamburg, 3,500 ounces. Gold bars: to Belgium, 1201. Silver coin : to Hamburg, 3001.; to Boulogne, 800 ounces. Silver bars: to Rotterdam, 156,000 ounces; to Belgium, 9001. The other exports reported to us comprise 40,6001. by the Calcutta (of which 28,2001. was in gold for the Mauritius, 5,4701. in silver for Madras, and 7,0001. in gold for Ceylon ; and 277,022 dollars by the Margaret steamer, from Liverpool for Havre, this latter sum forming part of the specie brought in by the Arabia from New York. The total ascer tained shipments of the week thus amount to only about 180,0001. sterling. There is still some in quiry for gold for the continent, and it is probable that further shipments of the precious metal have ' been made to that quarter, via the outports, but the specie movement of the week is manifestly greatly on the favourable side. On the subject of the claims of the holders of the certificates which have been issued by the Committee of Spanish Bondholders u vouchers for the half of the overdue coupons so unjustly confiscated by the last Spanish conversion law, Mr. Bauer, who has succeeded Mr. Weisweiller as representative at Madrid of the English holders of Spanish bonds, has addressed a letter to the Minister of Finance. Pri vate letters mention an impression prevailing in many Spanish circles, and even in well-informed quarters at Madrid, that, owing to the silence lately observed on the subject by the English press, the opposition at first shown to this unjust enactment has calmed down, and that the affair will soon be forgotten. Of the fallacy of such reasoning no demonstration is required ; as long as the disgrace involved in this repudiation of the most sacred part of a debt, i. e., the overdue interest, rests upon Spain, so long will the English press continue, so a warning to the public, to keep . the nefarious trans.& Lion open on all proper occasions. It appears that some of the holders of the S'.: per Cent, guaranteed stock of the Great Luxembourg Company, are opposed to the proposals submitted by the board for the consolidation of the several classes of shares. We insert a letter from one of the com plaining parties, merely premising that he is in error in stating that the new stoat—viz., shares of 20 !. each, with 101. paid—will bear no interest, inasmuch as t his new stock will bear an interest at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum until the complete opening of the line from Brussels to Strasbourg. GREAT LEXEXDOURG RAILWAY. TO THI AMOR OP Tall DAILY NAWIL Sir,-Boms time since I purchased Six per Cent. Gus- I matted Stuck in the Luxembourg Railway, at a premium of 10s. per share, upon the understanding that the gua rantee of interest assured by the Belgian government was to be pe-ietually assigned to them. I now perceive by report from the Luxembourg Company, that they propose to give this class of sharrholden 101. sham without any guarantee, and a 41. obligation or bond bearing 4 per cent. per annum interest fur two of these shares, making 101. paid ; so that I am to be obliged to take a 10/. share yieliiing no interest at all, and a 41. bond bearing 5 per cen.. in terest, for my 101. guarantee Six per Cent. stock. Although I cannot see any reason why these shares, being guaranteed, should be altered at all, still, if altered, ought it not to be as near as equivalent as the guarantee, upon the faith of which they were purchased? It will injure so many, I trust the directors will alter their proposals. Your obedient servant, A Six PEA CENT. HOLDER. Brighton, Des. 14, 18.53. . It may be advisable to quote the exact words of the directors in their proposal to convert this class of the company's stock : For the holders of the 60,000101. belt-shares, guaranteed 6 per cent., upon which 51 have bees paid, the folios ing es the arrangement we propose—that they shall receive in ex change 30,000 'hares (101. paid) " to I:roarer," subject to t om payment of the other 101 , and a bonus of 30,000 paid up 41. Obligations beating interest at 6 percent., and reimbursable at St. There would thus he given to the shareholders of this claw one share of 201. (101. paid) sad one of 41. Olfiqration, reimbursable at 51. for two half shares of 101. each, upon which St. have been paid. Land shares to-day wore steady at former ratcs but the shares of the Scottish Australian Investment Company were higher. Bask shares were quiet. IThose of the Bank of Australasia ruled 11. lower. The shares of the Australian Royal Mail Steam Navigation Company were dealt in at 21 (8/. paid); Berlin Waterworks at l (2L 105. paid); General Steam Navigation at 271; Netherlands Land (4/.1 paid) at 3; and Peninsular and Oriental Steam at 69 to 69f ex div. and bonus. Annexed are the latest reports from continental bourne, as received by Mr. Renter's express : Amsterdam, Friday, closing prioes:—Dutch Four per Cents., 921; ditto Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 61 11-16. Spanish Deferred Three per Cents., 47! 8 brims does to-oa'. 46iii The arrivals of tonnage into the port of London have been very heavy during the last seven days (10th to 16th Dec.), comprising a total of 384 shim registering 79,247 tone, ex clusive of steamers and coasting vessels. By far the greater portion of these vessels are from the northern ports in the Baltic and Gulf of Finland, and the majority foreign bot toms. The close of the Baltic trade has brought a large amount of tonnage into the coasting trade sod occasioned a decline in coal freights, which will probably continue for some months. Chartering business has been very active during the week, but with ne symptoms of any weakness in the rates of freight; indeed, it is the prevailing opinion that the supply of shipping at the present moment is quite inadequate to the rapidly increasing demands of our com merce. For a long period high freights have prevailed in all trades, the enhanced rates which, in former years, were exceptional, being now the standard. That Australian de mands have contributed in a great measure to this result cannot be questioned ; and the movements of freights in this trade, which is often considered the kiyotone of others, are of great interest. The tonnage now un the berth for the Australian colonies comprises :—ln London, 86 vessels, registering 49,360 tuns • at Liverpool, 35 vess.ls, register ing 20,891 tons ; at Glisgew, 6 vessels, registering 1,778 tons ; at Hull, 2 vessels, registering 731 tons ; at Greenock, 1, registering 500 tees •, said at Aberdeen, 1, registering 350 tom. There are thus 130 vessels, of the combined register tonnage of 73,610 tons, now loading at ports in the United Kingdom with supplies for the Australian markets. These supplies being drawn from all parts of the world have occasioned greatly iacreased imports and consequent demand for ship ping in almost every trade. For the week 10th to 16th Dee. the tonnage cleared outwards from London for Aus tralia comprised eight vessels, registering 3,834 tons, of which live vessels, registering 2,643 tons, were for Port Phillip, and the remaining Oren bound respectively for Hebert Town, Swan River, and Sydney. The number of vessels entered out for the colony during the same period was nine, registering 4,73.5 tons ; ef these seven were for Port Philip, one for Adelaide, and one for Portland Bay. It will be seen, therefore, that the supply of tonnage keeps pees with the clearances. Rates of freight have continued very firm throughout the week, in some measure owing to the nature of the advice, brought by the Victoria steamer, which it is expected will give a fresh impetus to the export trade to the colony. We quote as usual from the current number of the " Weekly Shipping List" the rates of freight, es furnished by the brokers in the trades, on the 16th test. By a comparison with the rates of this day week, it will be found that in no instance has any decline occurred, while in several trades there has been • material advance. _ . The rate is in all cases foe fine measurement goods, with the accustomed primage in each trade.

Freights for the Mediterranean and Black Sea trades de , dined slightly when Eastern affairs assumed a somewhat more peaceable aspect, but are attain firm ; and we are now quoting 245. kr wheat from the Danube ; 51. 155., tallow, from Odessa; Smyrna. 601. ; Valonta, Constantinople, 125., wheal i Leghorn (tor several vessels), 70., wheat, to a direct port, 7a. 6d. if required to call for ordsrs ; Sicily, sulphur, at 445. ; Marseilles, 325.

Bd. SATURDAY ETINING. Very little business appears to have been dune to day in British mining stoeks,and we hear of no espe cial change in prices. The South Devon Consuls Company @shares were rather weaker again, closing to 3 prem. The gold mining shares remain quite neglected, and this department of the market preserves a very dull tone. The shares of the Australian Cordillera Company were rather lower. Lake Bathurst shares have been dealt in at ss. each (11. paid). The dis graceful disclosures made in the progress of the ac tion in the Court of Common Pleas, reported in the Daily News of this morning, have excited much attention, and a strong feeling of reprobation. We fear there are other companies in an almost equally bad condition. At 3 o'clock, Colonial Gold were quoted 7-16 to 9.16 prem. ; Great Nugget, k to 3 prem.; British Australian, 9-16 to 746 dis.; Nou veau Monde, 4-16 to 7-16 prem. ; Agua Fria, 3 to 3 prem.

There is, for the day, a large number of beasts, and most of the butchers having bought liberally on Monday last— the great market—trade to-day is very plow. Choicest descriptions, nowever, are disposed of at fully late rates. Although the supply of sheep appears small, it is adequate to the demand. There is considerable inquiry for choice Downs, and being scarce they are rather demur. There is a small advance in good calves. Foreign supply consists of 660 beasts, 830 sheep, and 8 calves; from Scotland 120 beasts; Norfolk an.l Suffolk, 400; and 2,000 from the Northern and Midland Counties. Per stoat, m stla.
