that trade will be goad during-the coming winter
andspring, and, urged by this anticipation; there
is a manifest reluctance on all hands to concede
anything which might .be looked on-as contra-
dictory of that hoped for result.' If any change
has taken.: place in. the money market during
the month, it,must be admitted as rather cheering
than the contrary ; and the prospects of manufac-
turing industry continuehopeful and encouraging.
Within the last fortnight a large import of wood
has arrived, many of the: deck-loaded fleet having
come into port, and consequent on this a slight
slackness in the market has been occasioned by
the appearance of an excess of stock, although in
reality there has .been no such influx as to give
reasonable ground for believing that this state of
matters will be more than temporary. The de-.
mand from consumers is_of_ such a character as to
`iiiffnce,thebelief that pod timber of most kinds
will meet with remunerative sale, if the quan-
tities landed be not so extensive as to cause glut.
Parties in the colonies thereforewill consult their
own interest, by keeping a moderately tight rein
upon shipments, as if these continue moderate, a
fair amount of legitimate business may be reason-
ably expecte,d, if, on the other hand, the quanti-
ties placed on the market be excessive, and sales
forced, a
.depression of prices must inevitably
follow, to the detritnent'of those who have yielded
to the temptation of a
,too easily excited hope of
effecting' large sales' and good prices by ' being
early in the market. Since the Ist February,
245 vessels, 193,528 tons register, wood-laden,
have arrived from British North America, viz.,
103 from Quebec, 90 from St. John, N. 8., and
52 from other ports At the same date last year,
270 vessels, 220,125 tons had arrived.

•' LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING.
The LONDON Stack EXCHANGE to-day exhibited
a partial reaction. Some persons, who bought on
speculation during the last few days, were realis-
ing their profits. Consols declined k per cent.
British Railway Shares opened fiat, and Stock
was very freely offered at reduced rates, but
towards the afternoon a shade of improvement took
place, arid the market closed steady. Canadas
were steady.

The tendency of the stock markets to-day was again
decidedly favourable. The position of the Italian ques-
tion is regarded as. much improved, Garibaldi and the
Sardinian Government having apparently an under-
standing, the latter having declared against any present
attack upon the Austrians; the dulness of the exchanges
and the litespect of some withdrawals of gold from the
bank have therefiire little of no effect. Business. in the
stock exchange has decidedly increased. The funds,
however, were comparatively little affected. A rise of
4- to 1- per cent. took place in the morning; btit consols
closed only 1-16 to a per cent. better than yesterday.
British railway stocks were remarkably buoyant in the
morning, but partially relapsed in the afternoon. Lan-
cashire and Yorkshire and Berwick stocks were in
ditraordinary.reqiiest to-day Demand for money iii
commercial circles was only moderate, although this
was the 4th of the month.—Ddity Views City Article,
'The payments in connection with the 4th of the
month passed off in London without the 'announcement
of any new failures. At the Bank there was a further
demand for discount, and in the open market a rather
active business took place. In the Stock Exchange,
doming to sales of consols for delivery, loans for a few
days were sought at git, to per 4 cent. The stock markets
have again shown animation, although at the close of
business there ivas a slight reaction trout the highest
prices of the morning. About £16,000 in gold was
withdrawn from the Bank for transmission to Spain.
The arrivals of specie from America are falling off, as
was anticipated would be the case, a simultanous pres-
sure both of grain and cotton bills being likely hence-
forth to depress the rate of exchange. The continental
etehanges do not present a particularly heavy appear-
ance, hut some steady receipts of gold from Australia
will now be required to meet the continental and eastern
demand. The railway niarket again improved' in the
morning, but towards the close partially relapsed with
consols. Prices, however, remain intrinsically firm,
especially as regards the lines in the manufacturing dis-
tricts. Lancashire and Yorkshire and Berwick left off
1 to 11 per cent. higher; North British, 1 ; and several
other stocks
Ito 4. Great Northern was rather flat.—
