The win*al Witita'ttkbas .yesterday Were again in
Litneasiltre t .Yorkshire. This advanced to 121, and

was a general 'improvement in other stOckS, Ef.otttli-
eastern and Great Western eieepttA. 21 feature in the
business of the day AVfl.5 yb improvement in American
railway keettliTNE; Illinois Central, and New York and
Ario 'attires were especially in request, and closed $2 to
$3 higher. It is reported that the arrangement con-
templated between the Midland and Lancashire and
Yorkshire Companies are tantamount to an absolute
amalgamation. The object is apparently to arrange a
direct communication through the midland and niaiiti=
facturing districts, independent of the bonden and
North-Western Railnlyi.
The English Rinds have dpiii been rather bitoyarit,',
owing to hirge purchases of codsols oil account the
Court Of Chancery, the tendency. to Improgement
the Paris Bourse, and the claim:shed proipea of gold
shiptnents to Ameries. No bar gold was taken froth
the Bank, hut about 13,600 sovs. Were Vithdraivn for
shipthent to America by the Atlantic from Southamp-
ton. Further parcels were packed ready for exportat•
tion, but were not 'removed. Possibly some small
additional sums may be taken from the Liverpool branch
for the Etna. h the foreign exchanges the rate on
Paris was a trifle higher. Other places were about the
same, with the exception of Vienna and Trieste, which
show increased mistrust in Austrian finance.—Tinges
City Article.
Consols experienced a further impromietit of I pet
cent., which was fully maintained tip to the dose: The
share markets were generally. hrni, With a fairoarable
tendency. One of the principal features was a con-
tinued active demand for Atherrean railway securities,
which hate risen. this being the 4th of the month the
distount Market Was active. . The supply ;of Money in
itornbard-Street appears to he diminishing, as asnally
happens at this period Of the 'quarter, and less willing-
ness is therefore shown to do business below the Bank
minimum. At the Bank of England the transactions
were namerous. The bills due appear to have been
very well met.—. Daily News City Article.
The Herald says that While the payments of the
were
were generally well met, the returns of titian bills *Fre
numerous, especially in the drapery trade.
The Daisy Ntvedoes not anticipate that the American
crisis will be surmounted without the suspension of a
number of mercantile houses in the United States.

A fresh remittance of silver, to the extent of about
£94,000, was received yesterday at the Bank of EnglaAd
from the Bank of France-.
Gold is 1-10th per ant. nearer in Paris than in
London Mid notlquite 1-10th dearer in Hamburg than
in LOnden aiid New York. Good commercial bills may
be Considered to be about 103 per cent., which exchange
is against this country, and admits of the export of
gold to the United States. The last prices flom Paris
this evening show another advance of nearly per cent.
