Although, as usual on the Derby Day, the attend- ti ante of members of the Stock Exchange was to-day p restricted, the English stock market exhibited an L improvement, which was firmly maintained to the p close of business. This advance, occurring in face of p a less quiet state of European politics, which coati- a l nuts to drive down the Paris bourse, was owing to some very large amounts of Exchequer Bills being sent in to the Treasury for repayment, and a consi derable proportion of the proceeds being invested in a Consols. There is still an impression that the coati- a nental difficulties will be satisfactorily adjusted. Some considerable parcels of the gold bullion lately ti imported found their way into the Bank of England c to-day. a Console ranged between 1007 and 1004 for money, t the closing quotation being 1001 to „,! both for cash a and the Ist June.

The 18th annual general meeting of the share ' holders of the National Bank of Ireland was held to day, when the dividend declared was the same as ' last year. It was, however, stated that in July. next ; the directors will be able to resume the payment of a 5 per cent. dividend. The subjoined observations on the money market and general course of trade in the United States are ; extracted from the circular of Messrs. Blake, Howe, and Co., of Boston: 1 The money market continues in a state of esse. On call • and for short loans capital is abundant at the legal rates of ; interest, but the numerous and vast enterprises which are 1 daily undertaken through the whole country, cresting an 5 insatiable demand for money, prevent the rates from return ing to the low figures of last year. Notwithstanding the ; constant arrivals of gold from California, and the fact that 6 comparatively little specie has been exported during the ; past season, rates for long loans are kept firm at quotations, 1 via., on call 4to 5 per cent.; ditto stock and other colla teral', 6 to 61 • prime business paper 60 days, „ 61 to 71 ; 4 month; and longer 7 to The market fur exchange is somewhat firmer. The returns of the im ports of foreign merchandise show a large increase over the two preceding yeas; at the same time but little specie has r gone forward to meet the large demand thus created. The increase of the cotton crop and of our other natural produc tions has helped to diminish the unfavourable balance of trade and the large amounts of stocks and bonds taken by European capitabra have joined in keeping the exchange r below the specie point. But the rates have advanced within f the last fortnight and the shipments of specie have again commenced. We quote, on London 1093 to 1091 for 60 day bills ; on Paris 5.121 to 6.15. The stock market does not show an advance corresponding with the ease in money. Government and state stocks are maintained at full prices, 3 but a comparison of the leading storks with last week's quo ; teflon' shows a small decline. Manufacturing stocks ere somewhat firmer; and the confidence in the present pros perity of the country is extending to these intercom Se • veral of the principal mills have made good dividends with a large surplus of earnings, and a return to the profits of the high tanifsystem is hoped for without its evils. The Baltimore and Ohto Railroad has declared a semi-annual dividend of 3 per cent. in stock; the Pennsylvania Railroad - of 3 per cent. in cash. Subjoined is an extract relating to the slave trade from a letter addressed by a mercantile firm in Cuba to a City house : The convention between England and Spain that you allude to will have little effect. The " emancipados" will not be found on the estates. The planters take care gene rally to advise the authorities of their death within the first year of their introduction on the estate ! Slave trade is flourishing, notwithotanding the pretended measures taken against it. However, it cannot reach the extent to replace the proportion of deaths, Increase of cultivation, &c.

VAUXHALL—A bal mampiCi inaugurated the pre lirniuury opening of the royal gardens last night , and afforded a sufficient provocative to the appetite for excite ment, to restore the spirits even of those who were the most jaded by a summer day's Ficieipation in the sports and turmoil of the race curse at I::,sem. The deforatiens and general arrangements of the gardens are similar to those of last season, and the femur, s of the peculiar class of amuse , ment with which, according to custom, the advent of the Vauxhall year is celebrated, were as usual iudicroue, piquant, noisy, and jolly. There were costumes of almost every nation, adopted with the most grotesque disregard of national characteristirs,and there were the repres ntatives of almost all crosses of society, British and foreign, but dc stitute of every class peculiarity be the dress. Toe company which as might be expected from the fineness of the weather, was very numerous, began to as , emble about eleven o'clock, and by the aid of four bands relieving each other alternately, and a plentiful supply of champagne and other equally potent incentives to math, the dancing and the frolics of the masque were maintained until the sun had dispe:led the grey mists of morning.
