This was too terrific, and must at race be rectified ; so the exclusives changed the faaionable time to the two hours preceding lunch between twelve and two when all the low persons engaged in getting their daily breed would be confined to their counting-how, law comets, chambers, desks, or counters, as the case might be ; and this role still continues.

Comusaci.ax PILOORIDs IN JAPAN. Now that the Japanese traders are tolerably sure the foreign relatices of the country will continue unaltered and that race ell be maintained, they are likely to trade mom actively tkult they did daring the last half year. From some poinfiliG view it would appear that the last year has been one of programa, notwithstanding the undecided sad threaten. tag state of affairs which prevailed during the greater put of that period. The shipping certainly exhibits a decided improvemest over that of the year 1862, the departures for that period being 97 vessels of 35,498 tow, w ri est 168 remola If 61,260 toes is 1863. The arrivals daring 1863 were according to nationality—British. 100 vessels, of 34,790 tons ; American, 40 vessels of 21,102 toes ; Dutch, 13 vessels, of 3,464 tons ; Prussian, 8 uses* of 2,310 tons ; Preach. 7 useels, ad 2.166 tons ; and 2 Roashe egoists, of 598 toss. The actual value of the trade &meat the port daring the entitle' year of 1863, did, according to our own cricriations, observes the Comm , del News, wooed that of the previous year by perhaps from Wee to four million dollars. The velum declared at the cus tom house, however, show • marked decrease in the trade of the port during 1863,as compared with the previous year ; but it is widest that these declarations of value are dadtioos and unreliable. They give the average Dries of raw silk, raw cotton, and tea, at 210 doh., 8 dole., sod 9 data, per picul, respectively ; of shirtiam at 2 dole. per plies ; and of wises, 1 dol. per case dad in this way the total traded the year amounts to 5,017,000 bole. for exports ; and to 1,600.000 dole. for imports. These figures may certainly be doubled, sad, perhaps, trebled for the approximate true value—the export of raw silk alone being equal to at hut eight !mil lives of dollars. The export of our new staple—raw cotton —amounted Is 1863 to nearly 47,000 bales, against 4,616 bales in 1862.

The funds have again risen 1 to per cent., much support being derived from the continued investments by the public. The stocks of one or two of the chief home railways have improved. The tea -1 dency to improvement in the share and foreign stock markets, however, is checked by the heavi ness of the work in connexion with the completion of the extensive "amount" in shares and foreign stocks. This is the " pay-day." The demand for money to-day is limited, many persons keeping back their bills in expectation of an early reduction in the Bank of England rate of dis count. The quotation for good three months' bills is 81 per cent. In the Stock Exchange there is an increased inquiry for short loans on government securities, principally in connexion with the fort nightly settlement, and it is difficult to obtain them at 7 per cent. At Paris to-day, according to Mr. Reuter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at 66fr. 80c., showing no alteration. Consols are now quoted 911 to 1, with div., for money, and 904 to 1, ex div., for the account (June 8). The official business report is as fol lows:—Three per Cent. Coneola, for money, 911, 1; ditto for account, 901 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 894, ; New Three per Cents., 891, ; Bank Stock, 239, 237 ; India Stock, 217, 2184 ; ditto Rive per Cent. Stock, 1064, 1061 ; ditto Four per Cent., 100, 991; Exchequer Bills, March, 10s. dia. ; ditto June, 91., 4s. die. Little change has occurred in foreign stocks, the settlement monopolising attention. Greek Bonds are per cent lower, at 231 to 1 ; but most other stocks are steady. Mexi can Bonds are quoted 45 to ; Spanish Passive, 344 to 35 ; Confederate, 65 to 68 ; Turkish of 1862, 71 to 72, ex div ; and the Consolidds, 48J to I, ex div. Tranaaetions are recorded as follows :—Brazilian, 1863, 862 ; Egyptian, 1001 ; ditto second issue, 1001; Greek, for account, 234 ; Italian (Maremmana Railway), 74 ; Mexican, 441, 454 ; ditto for account, 451, ; Peruvian, 1862, for account, 86 ; Russian, 1862, 864, ex div. ; ditto, 1864, scrip, 24 prem. ; Spanish, for account, 524 ; ditto New De ferred, 451 ; ditto Passive, for account, 341, ; ditto Certificates, 114 ; Swedish scrip, 3 prem. ; Turkish, 1854, for account, 88 ; ditto 1868, for account, 681 ; ditto Guaranteed, 100 ; Venezuela, 1862, for account, 551, ex div. International Financial shares are now quoted 61 to 1 prem. ; General Credit, 611 to g prem. ; Mercantile Credit, 101 to 11} ; Hudson's Bay, 18} to 1 ; Credit Mobilier, 41 to 5 prem. ; Imperial Financial, 4to prem. ; Credit Foncier (Great Britain and Ireland), 6 to 7 prem. ; City Offices Company, 1' to 1 prem.; International Land Credit Company, 2i to 1 prem. ; htill wall Ironworks, 11 to prem. ; and Imperial Bank of China, I/ to 1 prem. Form o'Cioci. Consols are unaltered, at 9lf to 1, with div., for money, and 902 to f , ex div., for the account. 88,0001. in gold has been sent into the Bank. The rate of discount in the general market hav ing declined to 821 per oent. for good three months bills, and 8 for six months, and the supply of money being large, the belief that the rate of discount at the Bank of England cannot be main tained at its present exorbitant point for more than a week or two longer, is increasing. The demand at the Bank discount-office is accordingly falling off, holders of bills preferring to wait till lower terms are established. In the Stock Exchange, though high rates were paid for loans on many other aecuritiet, the terms on English government stocks yesterday were only 4 to 6 per amt. from day to day, and 6 per cent. for longer periods, and there was a good supply a money left over yesterday afternoon. The steamer Australaaian, from New York, has brought 42,0001. in specie. The Shannon will take to-day 5,0001. in silver coin for the West Indies. The quotation of the Bombay exchange just telegraphed shows no alteration, while that from Calcutta is slightly easier. The Committee of the Stock Exchange will meet to-morrow, when it is understood that they will appoint special settling days for the shares of several new projects. The Brighton Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 1,8041. over last year ; and the South Eastern an increase of 1,7421. We have received • oopi of the prospectus of the Hydraulic Tube Drawing and Steel Ordnance Company (Limited). The object is to purchase and develop some new patents for improvements in the drawing and shaping of metals, and for the machinery employed therein. It is mentioned that "by this process metal tubes can be produced from the fineness of a needle to the size required for the largest ordnance, and its products may be applied to numberless other uses, with infinitely increased strength and diminished cost" It appears that the patent has been experimentally worked in Paris for nearly two years, and that large orders are now in hand there for gun and rifle barrels. Attached to the prospectus are several satisfactory reports of the proving of gun barrels in London and Paris. It is intended to supply machinery, and to grant licenses to manufacturers, and to establish • factory for the manufacture of tubes. The patent may be seen in operation at temporary works in Bermond sey. Full particulars are given in the prospectus with regard to the terms of purchase. The capital is 160,0001., in 15,000 shares of 101. each, of which one-half are to be issued in the first instance. The directors of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway Company in New York, under date of the 6th April, have addressed to the stockholders a brief statement of the company's business for the year ending the 31st Dec.
