Exchequer Bills are 1 dis. to ptn. The Bank are sellers at par, or a little above it.. Large quanti ties are understood to have been disposed of. Consols opened to 921, hut, owing to rumours of skirmishes on the Danube, the price receded to 911, at which price they closed. A demand for silver has sprung up, for silver for Hamburg. This may welts gold to be sent to Paris for the purchase of it, but not to any great e stela. The excite:weft to-day are without alteration. FOREIGN FI7NDS. We mentioned that satisfactory intelligence might be expected from Mexico relative to the payment of the dividends. A telegraphic despatch from New Orleans mentions that bills have been drawn for the balance necessary to pay a dividend of 11 per cent. This news immediately created a rise of 11 per emit. in Mexican Bonds, which touched 23, and close this afternoon 241 1. We expect the prospects of the bondholders will improve. In other foreign funds the Imagines* has been very limited. Peruvian has improved slightly in conse quence of investments, and the large supplies of guauu which are expected. It A 1 LWAYS. The settlement of the share account, which took place to-day, only proves how largely the speculators for a fall have su!d shares. The " baekwardation," or premium for the loan of shares for a fortnight, has been very large on North-Western stock, 4to ; Lan cashire and Yorkshire, ; and on most of the other lines about 4. Thin operation alone will be ruinous to the Rears if it continues. I:rest Northern stock has evinced much firmness, in consequence of the large increase or the traffic, and the opinion being strong that it will continue. The traffic returns, consider ing the weather and the check that has been given to trade in the manufacturing districts, are satisfae. tory. The fluctuations in shares during the week will be found below. The public continue to in ‘e it. PRICE S CURRENT. FUNDS. Closing Prices. oFFIcIAL QUOTATION.
