As usual on Saturday there is very little busi ness in the Stock Exchange, and prices generally show no alteration. Consols are rather dull, at the slight reduction which took place yesterday. Railway stocks have been very little dealt in, but a further decline of 4 per cent. is observable in Caledonian, making a total fall of 2/ per cent, during the pre sent week. Foreign bonds were extremely inactive. The Indian Five per Cent. stock is somewhat lower. Other securities are quite neglected. The discount market is quieter to-day, but the rate for choice bills is still fully 2 per oent. Consols are quoted 93 to for money and the account (April 2), and the Three per Cents.

Consols have improved 1-16 tot per cent., via , to 94 for money, and 931 tot for the account. Metro politan and Midland stocks are i tot per cent. better, at 114 to g and 105 to I, respectively. As regards foreign bonds, Italian of 1862 and Turkish of 1865 have improved f--the former to 41 to i, and the latter to 33/) to i. At Paris this morning the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at 69fr. 20c. for the account, showing an advance of 1-16 per cent. Owing to the absorption of money through the revenue payments into the Bank, the supply avail able in the general market yesterday was limited, and, the demand being good, business was not transacted, even in choice bills, below 2 per cent. This being equal to the miuumum at the Bank of England, the demand at that establishment was sufficiently heavy to excite some discussion as to whether an advance in the rate to 21 per cent. may not come under consideration soon. It must be borne in mind, however, that the demand is merely of the character usual at this period of the quarter, and that, after the payment of the April dividends, the Bank would certainly lose business, through being underbid by other dealers in money, should it increase its terms. The steamer LI% Plata has arrived from the River Plate and Brasil with 97,3691. in spm'e, and the Poonah, from Alexandria, with 42,6861.

With regard to the market for petroleum, the folk is from a circular issued yesterd ay by Messrs.

Advioes from Shanghae to the 20th of February quote the exchange upon London at se. 91d., and from Hong Bong, to the 28th, at 4s 2d., showing a fall of about 1(1. in each ewe. It is consequently impeded that some oonsiderable shipments of silver will be made from those port to India. A priva te telegram, dated Hong Hong, Feb. 28, says : Foochow tea season closed. Total export, 110,500,000 lbs." The joint traffic return of the Oaledonian and North Britiah Railways shows this week an Mar one of 3,4301. over last year.
