The prevalence of unfavourable weather continues to
weigh upon the stock markets. The funds have .again
declined pet cent., whilst the fall in most of the prin-
cipal British railway stocks amounted to Ito per
cent. Although the exchanges are firm, and the Bank
of England still receiving gold, the ultimate solution of
the food question is canvassed with growing anxiety.
The corn market continues to be watched. The only
securities that showed real firmness were those of the
American railways. Should the first effect of the impe-
rial decree which opens the ports of France be to attract
corn from our ports. to those of France, the tit:amigos
may be kept firm for a time, but we shall ultimately be
compelled *again to procure the needful supply from
more distant markets, and perhaps at advaaeed prices.
The demand for money at the Bank was rather heavy.
A further sum of 260,000 in. gold. Was taken to the
Bank. The Illinois has arrived from New York.with
£30,000 for England. The c,atward steamer with the
Bombay mail will lake, on Monday only £33,000 it
