The general improvement in outward freight, which took oleos during the last week of October continued during November, and for long voyages a further light advance has been realised. The Brazilian trade is quiet ; the demand for the West Indies improving. Rata for the Mediterranean 000tinue high, owing dray to the scarcity of home cargos. For Australia freights are un changed.

KAOINARY CONVERSATIONS. There might be a new and entertaining series of "Imaginary Conversa tions" written, if we could bat get the true data for them, between the New Self and Old Self of many persons, histori cal and unhistorical. At their first meeting they would not be more surprised at the outward difference in person, than at the utter unlikeness between their opinions and views of life, when they began their discourse. The individual whom the New Self fancies he remembers to have been, once upon a time was not much like this &purities of Old Self, with which soddenly he is confronted. The childish self mu neither so happy nor so innocent, the youthful self not altogether so foolish, am the present self pic tured him. Each might make wise comments woe the mistakes of the other ; and the balance of wisdom would not be always on the side that might be suppond On the whole, if no unhappy cirennatisoces had cast a gulf beteesu them, and made them turn from each other with horror and mistrust, they would part, it may be booed, good friends ; recogaieing each other's distinct good qualities, un derstauding better each other's feelings and shortcomings, and making allowance for them—ea all good kind of people, even with less claim to identity, will do when they ate brought together in personal intercourse—and ready to admit that each mil best fitted for his own sphere of halm, and had better cookie itself to that, making as few disagree able cooparisoos as possible.—Bleckwood's Megazine for December, Sh.

An order to pall a horse back, i.e., to " on*" or, as in • late suspicious ere It was a:premed, to ' put the strings on," is seldom resorted to : et all events, it is sot the everyday occurrence which the wholesale condemners of the turf are in the habit of representing it to be. This would probably not answer the purpose of blinding the bsodicapper, but would open the one of the world in a meaner unpleasantly marked towards the iodividnal who attempted it. The more ordinary, sad by far the safer method of prooseding is this : to run your horse out of ren dition ; to run him at a time when, from whatever circum stances, he is quite incapable of whit:dog. Knowing your horse, sad yourself, of ooune you will not have backed him for ow shilling ; on the contrary, if thoroughly re. of your character, you may have safely laid menet fil d . ll" This is dove daily, horreseo reform, and it ts re consisteutly with the same hone, until the private rets d of the owner are told that " this is his der," " this is his journey."

The announcement, though in some measure expected, has naturally produced some excitement in mercantile circles. In the Stock Exchange the effect has been ' depressing, but the several markets, after opening in a kind of panic, have become steadier iu character within the last hour and a half. Most of the principal securi ties, however, are lower than they were yesterday afternoon. The fall. in the funds amount s to Ito per cent. The chief movement is a fall of * to 1 per cent. in the speculative foreign stocks. Greek Bonds have suffered to the extent of 2 per cent., and the market is excited. The usual telegrams from the Paris Bourse have not yet come to hand. Consols are now quoted 00l to 1, ex div., for money, and 901 to 4, ex div., for the account (January 7). The official business report is as follows :-Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 904, 1, 90, ex div. ; ditto for account, 904, 2, 1 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 90, 891, 90 ; New Three per Cents., 90, 891 ; Thirty Years' Annui ties,lBBs, 141 ; India Five per Cent. Stock, 1062, ; ditto Four per Cent., 1004 ; ditto Bonds, be. prem. ; Five per Cent. " enlaced " rupee paper, 103, 104 ; and Exchequer Bills, ss. die. Much excitement has prevailed in the foreign stock market. Greek Bonds opened at 241 to 251, rose to 254 to 26, and are now quoted 241 to 251, being 2 per cent. worse than yesterday. Turkish Consolif..is opened at 44 to 45, were offered at 44, and are now quoted 441 to 4, being 1 worse than yesterday. Mexican opened at 341 to 1, and are now 331 to 341, being 1 per cent. lower than yesterday. Spanish Passive Bonds show a reduction of 4, being quoted 324 to 1. Anglo-Turkish Bonds of 1858 and 1862 are comparatively steady at 694 to 70. Transactions ars recorded as follows :-Chilian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 83, ex div. ; Egyptian, 99 ; ditto second issue, 984 ; Greek, for account, 261, 4, 241 ; ditto, Coupons, for amount, 12, 111 ; Italian, for &coconut, 701 ; Mexican, for account, 34, 4, 334, 344 ; Portuguese, 1863, 48 ; Russian, 1862, 864, 851 ; Spanish, 53 ; ditto Passive, for account, 32t, 1, 32, 1 ; ditto Certificates, for account, 13, 121 ; Turkish, 1858, for account, 693 ditto 1862, 691. ; ditto, for so count, 691, 70 ; Venezuela, 1862, for account, 55 4. 56. International Financial shares are quoted to 41 prem. ; General event, 24 to 1 prem. ; Lon don Financial, 81 to 9 prem. ; Mercantile Credit, 31 to 1 prem. ; Hudson's Bay, 21 to 21 die. ; Egyptian Trading, I} to 11 prom. ; Merchant Banking, 41 to 5 prom. ; Australian Land and Mortgage, to I prem. ; Mortgage Bank of India, 21 to 1 prem. ; National Steam, 31 to 4 pm.; West India and Pacific Steam, to I. prem. ; English and Swedish Bank, 21 to 31 prem. ; and Etat London Bank, 21 to 1 prem. One object of the directors of the Bank in their exceptional regulations seems to be to hamper the operations of the bullion ex porters, but the fact that 203,000 sovereigns were yesterday withdrawn for one of the new cotton countries proves the difficulty of stopping the present drain. A heavy fall in the price of cotton would be much more likely to pro duce this result. Meanwhile, the uncertainty which prevails in the discount market interferes materially with the free circulation of money. In consequence of the alteration at the Bank, the Joint Stock Banks yesterday raised the rate allowed for deposits, from 4i to 5 per cent. This resolu tion was adopted at a meeting of the representa tives of the several establishments held yesterday at the Loudon and Westminster Bank. The ex ception is that the London and Westminster gives only 4 per cent. for sums below 500!. The discount firms and companies have raised the rate of money at call, from 4.} to 5 per cent., and at three days' notice, from sto si, while for deposits fixed for 14 days, 6 per cent, is offered. It is really surprising to observe the steadiness with which nearly all securities held for investment, such as guaranteed and preference stocks, have borne this rise in the value of money, but, as the terms now offered for floating capital are relatively high, it is evident that one main support is with drawn from the market for these stocks.. About 203,000 sovereigns were withdrawn from the Bank yesterday, chiefly for Alexandria. A further large total is expected to be taken for Brazil during the next few days. The bl,OOOl. in American eagles by the China has been purchased for the Continent. . A sum of 188,345/. in specie has been engaged for transmission to the East to-morrow, by the steamer Ripon, of which nearly the whole, 180,9551., is gold for Alexandria. A further amount for Egypt is expected to be forwarded to-day from London to Southampton for despatch by this vessel. The biddiugs for 50.00.000 rupees (500,0001.) in bills on India took place yesterday at the Bank of England. The proportions allotted were—To Cal cutta, 27.00.000 rupees ; to Bombay, 2L00.000 rupees; and to Madras, 2.00.000 rupees. The minimum price declared was as before, via. : Is. Hid. per rupee on Calcutta and Madras, and Is. Did. on Bombay. The applications within the limits amounted to 172 lacs (1,700,0001.). Tenders on Calcutta at Is. llad. will receive about 94 per cent. ; on Bombay, at 2s. Old., about 38 per cent. ; on Madras, at la. II gd., about 10 per cent. ; and all above these prices in full. Proceedings having been instituted to conduct the winding up of the Great Ship Company under the cognisance of the Court of Chancery, a large number of the shareholders have, after much consideration, agreed to nominate Mr. R. P. Harding (Harding, Pullem and Co.) to the office of official liquidator. This selection has been made with the view of having the services of a gentleman totally independent of any connexion with the company, and who would have uo particular interest to serve. The London and North Western Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 8,5801. over last year ; the London and South Western an in crease of 1,883/. ; the Great Eastern an increase of 3,8411. ; and the Great Northern an increase of 2,815/. A half-yearly meeting of the Canada (Land) Company will be held on the 30th December, when a dividend is to be determined on. _ _ The subscription list of the West India and Pacific Steamship Company has closed with a total application amounting to six times the number of shares to be allotted. With reference to the market for American secu rities Mr. E. F. Satterthwaite reports as follows : The market in London for American securities has since our last been characterised 134:he same dulness which has pervaded the market for fore stocks gsserally. Gaited Government and Virginia Six per Gent. Bolds have &dined 2 per cent, whilst Illinois and Erie shires remain unaltered. There has, however, been a good inquire for Atlantic and Great Western Bonds : those of the New York section have been done at 791 ; the Pennsylvania section are Brut at 77 to 78. Some boyars appear to prefer the New York bonds, inasmuch as they carry the coupons doe In January next, whilst others prefer to take the Pennsylvania hoods, for the chance of the drawing to take plans next month. Some bonds of the Ohio section of this company issued in America, and dealt is at the New York Stock Board, have found their way over here, and have been dealt in from 58 to 60 ; principal and interest on these is payable only is currency is New York. WspresDAT imam Consols, which closed yesterday at 904 to a ex div., both for money and to-morrow's settlement, were marked to-day 904, and dosed at 904 to For the 7th Jan., the last price Ira. 91 to 4, ex div., the " continuation " being to 9-16. The official business report is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 90i, 4, f, 4, ex div.; ditto for amount, 904, ex div. ; Three per Centa.

The India Five per Cent. stock, which is now quoted er dividend, has scarcely varied in price, The rupee paper, however, shows a droopiog ten dency. Exchequer Bills were flat, at yesterday's quotation of 10s. to 56. dia. The foreign stock market was decidedly de pressed, especially towards the close of business. Colonial government securities, including Canada, Victoria, Cape of Good Hope, and Mauritius, were heavy, a few sales being induced by the state of the money market. Bank shares, like other securities, were gene rally flat. Alliance, London and Brazilian, London and Hamburg, London and Westminster, Mercan tile and Exchange, and Scinde and Punpinb have receded. Imperial Ottoman Bank and Union Bank of London, however, were firmer. Anglo-A ustrian Bank 'hairs have declined to 1 to 14 prem., yet were in good demand for account of an influential class of buyers. Crystal Palace, East India Irriga tion, and Italian Irrigation shares and bonds were heavy. There were inquiries, however, fur Anglo- Mexican Mint shares. The share' of most of the financial companies have declined, in sympathy with the general heavi ness of the Stock Exchange. International closed at n to 4 prem.; General Credit, at 21 to g prem. ; and Mercantile Credit, at 311 to 4 prom. ; London Financial, however, have improved to to 8# prem.

The operations in the mining market continue upon a very limited scale, and prices geberally are unaltered, compared with those last current yes terday. New Rosewarne shares are lower, at 16 to 18, while Drakewalls have risen to 375. 6d. to 40s. In the Stock Exchange business is almost at a standstill, and the only bargain recorded is in East Caradon shares, which are marked 25 and 25g. United Mexican, Don Pedro, and Monte. Aureos shares have declined. Other foreign and colonial miues are without change. At ;the Drakewalls Mine meeting yesteolay the accounts showed an available balance of 7811.
