LONDON, BRIGHTON, AND SOUTH-COAST RAILWAY.-(THIS DA}' ) The half-yearly meeting of the qharehoklers Wlll4 held g 1 o'clock, et the Bridge House Hotel, Loudon. bridge, Mr. Leo Scut:mita is the chair. The report, which has been published in the Exprrag, was takes as read. The Cxaflltlss , in moving its adoption, said he had no doubt many of the proprieton were disappointed at their being no 110CITUDD of dividend, notwithstanMng an increase of :11,CO0/. in revenue. That was partly accounted for by an increase of 10,000/. in the amount paid for interest, to which be must add that much of the new traffic was at present undeveloped. in the whole he was himself satisfied with the last half year's working. ConAidering the weather of the past year, the drain of :10,1100,000/. for foreign corn,and the state of things in America, it was not to be expected that railway traffic would be buoyant ; but an improvement iii such matters would no doubt lead to a correspondtn;• increase of revenue. The Mid-Sussex line was, he was happy to ay, paying its expenses. Steps were la ing taken to increase the facilities for the traffic of the loam line, and also to strengthen the general position of the company in relation to other companies. Mr. Scurr (deputy chairman) seconded the motion. After some discussion the report was adopted. Rao to-day to 1 p.n. 19 i 9811 9 COMMERCIAL AND MARKET& MARK-LANK—(rOIB DAY.)

READINO HOR81•31 CATTLE Yam—Yesterday the above mart, known as Reading " Cheery Fair," was held for the sale of hones and stook, and s brought together a large assemblages of farmers and dowers of Berkshire ' and the neighbouring counties. Tho supply of cattle brought in for sale was rather limited as roinpared with pre vious fairs, but most of the stock was in good condition. Well-bred dairying stock readily found buyers, but lean sod young cattle were in dull request. In the hone fair very many splendid young animals were exhibited, and speedily commanded buyers at high figures. The following were the selling pnces of horse; and stock :—Well-bred upstanding young horses, suitable for pnvate carriages, broughams, Sm., made from 50 to 60 guineas ; and strung made ditto, adapted for =chine work, van purpose', Ice., very quickly found buyers at from 28 to 40 guineas ; seasoned cart horses brought from 18 to 23 guineas, sod riding hones and nag Dolts 24 to 40 guineas ; and superior selections of the above realised much higher figures ; ponies sold at from 8 to 14 guineas. Stock :—Well-bred mdch cows for country dairy ingbrht 16 to 18 guineas, small cows in full milk 134. to . and - cows to calve down 8/. to 111.

The stock fair was a dull one, and muck of the settle was SWAMI out mould. MONEY MARKET.--(THIS DAL) Two o'CLoci. The funds to-day have not been affected by the explanations given last night by Sir Charles Wood with regard to the Indian finances. Consols are quoted the same as they closed yesterday. In the other markets there is an entire absence of anima tion and little change in prices. At Paris this morning according to Mr. Reuter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at Var. 75c. being without change. The scrip of the new India loan is dull, at 991 to 100, whilst the stock has declined to 99A to *. Consols are officially marked 891 and 90 for money, and 90 for the account. The present quotations are 891 to f for money, and 891 to 90 for the 7th of August. The official busi ness report is as follows :—Bank Stock, 232, 230 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 891, I, ; New Three per Cents., 891, 1, ; Thirty Years Annuities, 1885, 151 ; India Stock, 219 ; ditto Five per Cent. Stock, 991, 1, f ; ditto scrip, 100, ; ditto Four per Cent. De'aenturea, 1803, 961 ; ditto Bonds, 11s., 7s. 10s., dis. ; Five per Cent. " enfaced " rupee paper, 941 ; Exchequer Bills, March, 10s. dis. ; ditto June, 3s dis., par. The Turkish Loan of 2854 is rather flatter, at 781 to whilst that of 1858 is well supported, at 67 to 68. There is no change iu Mexican Bonds. Peruvian Cribarren have met with some business between 86 and 86 ex div. Sales are recorded as follows :—Austrian Five per Cents, 1869, 65, ex div. ; Brazilian Old Five per Cents., 982, 991 ; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1862, 87 ; Chilian Six per Cents., 103 i ; ditto Four-and-a• Half per Cents., 811, 1; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 631, ex div. (exchange 122.) ; ditto Four per Cent. Certificates, 992 ; Mexican Three per Cents. for account, 22i, ; New Granada Deferred, 4, ; Peruvian Uribarren Four-and-a- Half per Ceuta., 851, 85, 86, ex div.; Portu guese Three per Cents., 1853, for account, 47, ex div.; Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 90, 891, ex div. ; Sardinian Five per Cents., 79 ; ditto for account, 78 ; Spanish Three pre Ceuta., 48j, ex div. ; Turkish Six per Cents., 1864, 781 ; ditto Six per Cents., 1838, for account, 6 71, },l. The supply of money in commercial channels yes torday continued considerable, whilst the demand was only moderate. A more favourable impression appears to be gaining ground respecting the future course of the market, it being thought that there is a fair prospect of a reduction in the Bank minimum to 5 per cent. within the next few weeks. At the Bank of England the applications were rather more numerous, but still very moderate. In Lombard-street 54 to 51 were the terms for good paper. The tenders for the additional 1,000,0001. of the Victoria Six per Cent. Debentures were lodged yes terday afternoon at the London and Westminster Bank. The negotiation did not excite by any minim as much interest as on former occasions, yet the total number of tenders reached 481, representing an aggregate of 2,300,0001. The committee of the Assaciated Banks having very injudiciously fixed the minimum price at 105 k, it was announced that the total taken at or above that price was only 230,0001. It was at the same time intimated that the committee had resolved to keep the subscrip tion list open until 2 o'clock to-day (Friday) at 1054. The persons whose tenders were ac cepted yesterday are not to have any preference in this second subscription. The proceedings are noticed in another column. It is understood that the applications at and above 106, which was fixed by public opinion as the pro ' bable reserved price, are more than suffi cient to cover the 1,000,0001. These the com mittee, by the narrow course adopted, reject. The result is that, so far, the loan wears needlessly the aspect of a failure. Its prestige is certainly im paired, and simply because the price fixed is too close to the actual selling price of the existing stock. Yesterday, while the minimum was finally agreed upon at 1034, the previous issues were currently sold in the market at 1054. The banks negotiating these loans are not well advised in this matter. There are two classes who support loan operations—the investor and the speculative capitalist. Both should be offered a reasonable margin of profit for the trouble and uncertainty they undergo, or these new loans will necessarily decline in popularity. This is the third time the Victoria government have oome to the London market as borrowers ; and certainly the results of I ,their,transactions hitherto have not been of • sufficiently remunerative cha racter to the lenders to incite them to come forward very readily on future occasions. It must always be borne iu mind that these securities have nothing but • colonial guarantee, and that they stand iu a very different position to the India loans, which are raised by the home government, and administered, like the English funds, at the Bank of England. It ia obviously impolitic, therefore, for the Banks to pursue • " *crewing" system calculated to give as great a chance of loss as of profit, and to deter sub - aoriptions hereafter. The affair has excited great dissatisfaction. The amount of Australian gold purchased by the Bank yesterday was no leis than 155,000/., and a further large sum will be taken there to-day aud to-morrow. The Berens, from Melbourne, with 42,0001. in gold, has at last reached the Downs, after a lengthened passage of 143 days. The outgoing steamer with the Bombay mail will take only 16.1601. in specie —viz., 11,0101. silver and 5,1601. gold. The sake of cotton at Liverpool yesterday have mini reached the large total of 20,000 bales, and Waluesday's rise of id to per lb. is supported. The Eastern Counties Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 4011. ; the Great Northern an increase of 3,3491. ; the Great Western a decrease of 1,193/, ' • the London and North Western an increase of 1,1741. ; the London and South Western au increase of 980/. ; the Man chester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire an increase of 308/.: the North Eastern au increase of 4,580/. ; the Midland an increaso of 3,490!. ; and the Lancarhire and Yorkshire a decrease of 208!.
