The stock markets to-day are generally dull, partly, perhaps, in consequence of the fog, and in some measure owing to the usual indisposition to enter into new engagements so near the close of the year. English government securities are steady, but with few dealings, and speculation is quiet in foreign stocks. The President's message to Congress is generally spoken of with approbation for its moderate character, and American securities have improved in cense_ quence. English railway stocks command only a moderate share of attention, and prices show no general change. Metropolitan Railway stock, how ever, has advanced. Bank and miscellaneous shares remain dull. The discount market is quiet to-day, and there being a good supply of money seeking employment, first-class bills are more freely taken at six per cent , the Bank minimum. in the crock Exchange short loans on English government securities are obtainable at 4 to 5 per cent. Commis are now quoted 871 to ii, ex div., for money, and 871 to 1, ex div., for the account (January 9). Operations in foreign securities are moderate in number, and of no special character or importance in any instance. Greek bonds are fiat, and Spanish weak. Turkish Five per Cents. are 1 per cent better than on Saturday afternoon. Some of the pre sent quotations are subjoined, viz. :—Greek, 141 to 15 ; Turkish Five per Cents. of 1865, 431 to 1 ; Spanish Passive, 271 to 1 ; ditto Certificates, 1.41 to i ; Confederate, 71 to 84 ; Brazilian scrip, 11 to / prem. ; and Mexican, 241 to 1. United &atm 5-20 Bonds continue in active request, and show a fresh rise of 1 per cent., the present quotation being 66 to 1. Erie Railway 1 shares are also better, at 581 to 59 ; and Illinois at 82to1. The subscription list of the English and Ame rican Bank opened this morning at 9 o'clock at the Union Bank of London, and so great became the rush of subscribers to the 5,000 shares offered to the public, that a notice had to be posted up that no more applications would be received. I International Financial shares are no w quoted 1 1 to le prem. ; General Credit, 2 to 1 prem. ; London Financial, 51 to I prem. ; Impe rial Mercantile, 21 to 1 prem. ; Credit Foncier and Mobilier of England, 31 to 411 prem., ex all; Overeni, Gurney, and Company, 51 to 1;1 prem. The shares of the Colonial Company are quoted 11 to 2 prem. ; London Steam Towing, 11 to 2 prem. ; Charles Witte and Co., 2 to 21 prem. ; and Commercial Company of Africa, 1 to 1/ prem. About 36,0001. in bar gold was withdrawn from the Bank on Saturday for the Continent. The steamer Shannon will take to-day 2,5001. in gold and 2,2001. in silver for the West Indies. it was recently announced that the Stock Ex change Committee have refused a settling day, in the shares of the Anglo-Greek Steam Navigation Company (Limited). in the absence of information upon the subject, there is, of course, no disposition to assume that this decision has been based upon other than valid grounds. In the interest, how ever, of joint-stock enterprise, and of the committee itself, it is essential that in this, as in all cases of the kind, the committee should state, if in a brief, still in an intelligible manner, the motives of the rejection. How can the public be expected to up hold and respect such decisions unless they are in formed why they have been arrived at I Again, it is desirable that the promoters of future joint-stock undertakings shall have a warning impressed upon them, but they can scarcely avoid the errors committed, or assumed to have been com mitted, by the promoters of this Anglo-Greek Steam Company, unless they are plainly informed in what those errors consist. Inquiry fails to elicit from the committee the nature of the promoters or directors' offences in this instance, and the directors, we be lieve, profess themselves unacquainted with the motives of theresolution recently levied against them. The pub li c are doubtless ready to infer that the causes are adequate, but information on this point is required as a mere measure of justice to all parties. The Stock Exchange is a close body, and the com mittee may be said, from the point of view of the public, to take evidence in secret session. From the satnre of the institution, this may be allowed, but when the committee promulgate their decisions, which are presumably based upon the evidence adduced before them, the veil of secrecy ought at least to be removed, so far as the interests of the Stock Exchange and of the public plainly demand. A circular recently put out by the Royal Sardi nian Railway Company announces, in the following terms, t wo withdrawal of the issue of preference shares, ch it was proposed to make under the shareholders' resolution of the 15th of May last : The council of the Royal Sardinian Railway Company hereby notify to the shareholders that, inasmuch es the applications received for the preference shares which were suthorimed to be issued by a resolution of a general meeting, held on the 15th Ray last, have sot proved sufficiently numerous to accomplish the purpose for which the meeting mithorieed them, no issue of such preference shares will at present take place.
