Comma have been less firm this week than last, though the continued large arrivals of gold from Australia and other parts contribute to maintain confidence. While those supples come forward it does not appear that there can be any reason to dread a monetary crisis, and the immediate effect of such an addition to the circulating medium of the world is to uphold or increase the value of money securities. _ _ Not much importance is attached to the declara tions of the new President of the Council at any public meeting, as it is well known that he endea vours to accommodate his sentiments to his audience. But, so far as we can gather, the effect of his speech m the Guildhall has been on the whole unfavour able, as it intimates that peace can only be concluded on conditions which it is tolerably certain Russia would never accede to until reduced to the last ex tremity of distress ; and it appears also very highly improbable that the German powers would ever con cur with France and England in insisting on such conditions. To this impression must be in part attributed, we think, the comparative heaviness of the market this week, in the face of the large sup- THE PRESS. plies of gold received, and the announcement of other considerable parcels on their way. The Stebonheath has been reported today with 33,000 oz., valued at 132,0001., on board. The fluctuation of Consols during the week has been between 91 and 91}. It is believed in some quarters that the stock held by the savings banks may be sold, and the proceeds invested in Exchequer Bills or Bonds. The policy of allowing the Government to deal with this fund is much doubted, seeing that all the operations of Mr. Gladstone have hitherto resulted in loss, which has, of course, to be borne by the nation at large. Money has generally been been easier this week, and the best bills have been discounted at a shade under the Bank minimum. India Bonds, Exchequer Bills, and the new Exchequer Bonds, remain almost stationary. SHARES. The railway business was not extensive, but prices were steady. Several railways have advanced from ss. to 10s. the share, and the North London has risen 2L But in the Share Market the principal feature has been the fluctuation in the Peninsular and Oriental Company's stock. The 501. shares, which have hitherto been at a premium, fell in the course of the week to 461., but recovered afterwards to about par. Notwithstanding the enormous subsidy this company receives from the Government, the increase in the price of coals, the wages of labour, &c., and the general rise in prices caused by the war, have swal lowed up their profits, and no dividend was declared. However, new arrangements are in progress to pre sent a similar result next half year; amongst other things, some of the higher officials will forego a por tion of their salaries. The Crystal Palace shares have also fallen. Fewer season-tickets were sold than was expected, whilst the enormous quantity of space unlet, and the innu merable array of officials requisite for a structure of the kind, perhaps came vividly home to " men's bosoms and businesses" when it met the eye at the opening. However, the traffic of the Brighton line has been considerably augmented by the event: the returns for this week exhibit an increase of nearly 0,0001. over the corresponding period of last year. In gold-mining shares there has generally been a decline. In connection with this it may be men tioned that the Berdan Machine Company have re ceived several orders from Australia for their crushing-machines. The Sydney Morning Herald predicts that no permanent benefit will result from the gold discoveries unless the nomadic life of the gold-digger ceases, and the gold-fields are worked systematically on a grand scale, whilst labour is subordinate to capital. FOREIGN FUNDS. The market at Paris is sensitive, owing to the recent failures, but both at Paris and Amsterdam there has been a slight improvement during the week.
