The Sydney Mercantile Journal, of the 16th June, gives the following report of the Sydney share market: _ _ _ Sure* our list report then has been some considerable Im provenent in the share market, and some large transactions I have taken place is the shares of 1 colonial banking and other compacts', as well as in government securities, at satisfactory prices, des.:—ln Commercial Bank shares, at from 60 to 66 per cent. prem.; Bank of New South Walm,l at 40 per cent. prom.; Australian Joint-Stock Bank, at 17e. 6d. and 20s. prom.; and also in railway shares at par.

This fact will go fez to show that the present rate of interest payable on those debentures is not sufficient to induce the colonial capitalist to edemas, the go vernment the Iseire sums required for the public roads and works of the colony, the present value of money invested fa the but government securities being now considered to be worth at least 71 per cent. prem. The position of the silk market is thus noticed by Messrs. Durant and Co.: We have had a month of fair current basin's, in silk at radially stiffening prices, although home consumers have been generally reluctant buyers. The deliveries are very large. In China silk the demand has been chiefly for the lower climes. We were without any arrivals of importance, hence the great diminution in the stock on the lit inst. The nalosding of the Stag Hound, now in progress, bee not added mach to the stock of available silk, still the scarcity and eamequest eagerness for certain qualities have enabled impetus's to sell several paresis, and business is doing at fall rates. In Bengal silk we have emstinued improved demand, the relatively moderate priors forcing it again into large Loasamptlea. In Italian silk we have nothing of moment, the pikes asked for the new silk render it almost a dead letter. In Benda silt we are without arrivals, except a few bales reeled in Italian fashion, which find buyers at about 28a. Is Persian silk a few parcels have been taken for ex port ; but this is altogether a smell affair. THURSDAY EVIXIDG. The Directors of the Bank of England, at their weekly board to-day, raised their minimum rate of discount from 31 to 4 per csat. The measure having, as usual, been anticipated by many parties, no fur ther unfavourable influence has been exercised upon oesin the various departments of the Stook Exchange. The English fuods closed even a shade better than yesterday, parties who had effected speculative sales in anticipation of the Bank measure showing now a disposition to buy back. The Lom bard-street disoount-hosem this afternoon raised thew rate for money "on call " from 3 to 3 1 per seat., but on the whole the money market km been quiet taday, after the pressure of the last few days.

At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Rent.. closed a shade lower than yesterday. At Vienna the ex change on London is quoted slightly higher, at 11.11. Consols for mousy ranged between 901 and 90/, seielseed at 901. For the new account of the 12th Delmer a decline to 904 to 1 took place in the more l.

There is a considerable amount of this latter stock floating in the Stock Exchange, and thus the "oontango" at yesterday's settling ruled as high as Ipa cent. Owing to the small amount of the loan 111 yet paid up, it has not yet been absorbed by permanent investors. The circumstance that no dis count is allowed on prepayment of the instalments also militates against its absorption by bankers, &c. These objections, however, can, of course, be only temporary, and the future value of the stock will doubtless be closely regulated by that of the funds.

It is pro bable that Mr. Blount, brother-in-law of the present Duke of Somerset, will again come forward on the Liberal inte rest. When he contested the borough in 1839, he was returned along with Hr. Beldwin, but was unseated on petition. _ Mr. Charles Dickens intends •iaitiog Sheffield, early in December, in order to give a reeding for the benefit of the Mechanics' Institution of that town.
