Joint-stock Banking, Dock, and Miscellaneous Shares
continue in moderate request.
Exchequer Bills are higher than this day week, the
present quotation being 31s. to 31s. prem. Bankers and
others haring surplus funds invest in these securities, and
in the present state of the market they are likely to con.
tinue in demand.

The Provincial Trade Reports are still favourable. The
raw materials of several branches of manufacture have,
however, advanced, and in consequence producers, espe-
cially in Lancashire and Yorkshire, complain of the
difficulty of effecting sales at the enhanced prices for their
goods which is thus rendered necessary. More mills,
however, continue to be put upon full time, and employ-
ment generally appears to be gradually increasing.
