LONDON, WEDNESDAY
EVENING

In the LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE to-day,
the Funds were rather firmer, and an improve-
ment of about I per cent. took place, although
business was scarcely increased. A good demand
was experienced for the principal home Railway
Stocks, particularly Midland, and a general ad-
vance occurred in prices.
The market closed at.the following prices :

The following appeared in our later-editions
of yesterday :
The Stock Exchange remains verydull ; old members
declare that business was never worse, and rarely so bad.
In the absence-of adequate support a decline of 1-16 to
kper cent. took .place in consols. The drooping ten-
ency, however, is held in check by occasional pur-
chases to close the accounts of speculators for the fall,
who do not care to retain their position in face of the
ease of the money market.. British railway stocks were
weaker in the morning, the heaviness of the funds
inducing some speculative sales; the "consequence was
that an advance took place in the afternoon. The, rise
in Lancashire and Yorkshire stock amounted to 1 per
cent. The principal business at present going forward
in our hoine railway stocks is on behalf of speculators in
.the provinces, particularly at Liverpool and Manchester.
The demand for money was moderate; the best bills
were discounted at 3;;;- to 3/ per cent.—Dally News
City Article.
The English funds continue with scarce a fractional
movement, and there is almost unprecedented dulness
in all departments of the Stock Exchange. In the dis-
count market the demand continues very limited. In
the foreign exchanges there was no change of import-
ance from the rates of last post. No gold was bought
by the Bank. The railway market, was rather dull at
the opening, but subsequently improved, especially after
official
.hours, and closed firmly at a nearly general
advance. Lancashire and Yorkshire and Midland were
most in favour, the former leaving off 1 per cent, higher,
and the latter ; in other descriptions the rise was Ito
3 per cent., South-Western excepted. The prices of the
various miscellaneous shares, which were, introduced in
rather rapid succession a few months back, continue to
exhibit extreme stagnation ; they were all, of course,
brought out at a premium, and in some instances at a
high dm. " The majority have fallen to' a discoun4r,
although in no case has a statement appeared to show
that their merits, whatever they may be, are less=at this
moment than -when they were taken up.—Times City
Article.
The LONDON' COLONIAL PRODUCE MARKET to-
day
was rather quiet.
.Sugar : The market was flat ; 7,800 bags clayed
Manilla were bought in at 38s 3d to 38s-9d.
Coffee : The market was steady, and Plantation
Ceylon sold at 70s 6d to 725,
Tea : The sales were flat. •
Rice : There was an active inquiry, and a large
business was done.
Saltpetre : The market was quiet.
Pepper : 1,100 bags black Singapore were taken
in at 4,1-4 d to 4:111. .
The LONDON TALLOW MARKET to-day was
-Eleady at.s2s 6d for the last three months, and
53s was offered for January, to March.
-In the BOROUGH HOP MARKET to-day there
was more business done in Hops, the prices of
which have an upward tendency. The .duty is
now called £45,000, and it is very doubtful
whether that amount will be realised. A parcel
of new foreign Hops has been disposed of at
1:14 .14s per cwf.
In the LONDON CORN MARKET to-day the
supplies of foreign • grain were good. Vriglish
and foreign Wheat, full prices of .Monday paid
for dry new and all sorts of old. Floating car-
goes against buyers; whether off coast or on
passage._ Flour rather • dearer. Indian Corn
sold at more money. Barley recovers tone,
awing to scarcity of feeding. Rye wanted. Peas
and Beans as before. Oats rather in 'favour of
sellers.
CORN AVERAGES.—The average • price and
quantity of Corn sold in England and Wales,
imperial measure, for the week ending Saturday
last, were—Wheat, 49,184 qrs., 62s 11d; Barley,
1,614 qrs., 37s 10d; Pats, 5,453 qrs,,,_ 275; Rye,

6d to 605.,
CORN MARKETS.--GLASGOW : Supplies liberal.
A good deal of rain has fallen since Friday last, which
renewed the feverish feeling in the trade, and improved
the value of Wheat on Monday 6d per 240 lbs. Yes-
terday was fine--7-to-day is wet. A good attendance at
Market, and fair inquiry for Wheat at Monday's ad-
vance. Barrelled Flour in request, and 6d dearer.
Barley, Beans, and Peas unchanged in value orderaand.
Oats the turn against sellers. Old Oatmeal very diffi-
cult to sell, although freely offered at 6d cheaper.
Mixed Indian Corn firmly held for 21s.
