The English stock markel, was again decidedly
stronger to-day, and closed with a buoyant appear-
ance. Consols reached 100,1 for money, and closed
according to the official account, at 1001 to Z, both
for money and the 9th of December, but after the
regular hours the quotation was firm at 100 to 101
for time. Purchases are being made, as usual at
this period of the quarter, by parties who are buy-
ing for the dividend," and whose confidence is fur-
ther stimulated by the extraordinary accounts,
received from Australia. and the heavy influx of rid
from that quarter. To-day's official business report is as
follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 1001,
d; ditto for account, 100,x,. Three per Cent. Re-
uced, 993, 1001. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.,
103. 21, 31. Long Annuities, 1860, 6 7.16. Bank
Stock, 223. India Stock, 276, 2731.
Sellers of Exchequer Bills continuo to offer, and
the price was again Is. lower, at 695. to 725. prem.,
both for the March and June issues.

Business in the foreign bond market was exceed-
ingly small, and scarcely gave occasion for even a
fractional variation in prices. Turkish scrip was
firmer, at 21 to 3 prem., in consequence of the satis-
factory nature of the explanations afforded by the
Messrs. Devaux and Co., which are considered
to place the claims of the bondholders
upon a still stronger basis, by proving
more clearly than ever that the Ottoman govern.
ment, in its present course, is acting contrary to
every dictate of honesty and good policy. The list
of sales is annexed, vie.:—Belgian Four-and a-Half
per Cent. Bonds, 97, 97a (exchange, 2.5 f.) Brazilian,
Old Five per Cents., 1011; ditto New Four-and-a-
Half per Cent. Bonds, 961. Buenos Ayres Six per
Cent., 74. Granada Deferred, 101. Mexican Three
per Cents., 2.51. Peruvian Actives, 104. Portuguese
Converted Four per Cents., 371, 38. Russian Four-
and-a-Half per Cents., 1041. Spanish Old Three

(Yenta., 25, 244. Swedish Mortgage Loan, 11 dis.
Turkish Six per Cent. Loan, for account, 30th Nov.,
21, 21 prem.
Shares of the Union Bank of Australia have risen
to 591 and 601. Bank of Australasia mark 70 and 69;
London and Westminster Dank, 311. Beziers and
Graisaessac Railway shares closed 11 to 11 prem.;
Bordeaux and Cette, 6 to 61 prem.; Antwerp and
Rotterdam, to 1 prem. ; French South-Eastern, 11
to 11 prem.; Royal Swedish Railway, to 1 prem.;
Swiss Railway, 11 to 1: prem. Other new shares
are unchanged in price.
Money this week has been in more aemand, and
the rates have shown a stiffening tendency, but the
supply is still very great.
Subjoined is an extract from a private letter dated
Gothenburg, the seat of operations of the Hypo-
thecated Estates Association, and having reference
to the Swedish Mortgage Loan lately introduced into
this market. We may repeat that this loan has no
government guarantee; but by parties conversant
with the nature of the security it appears to be re-
garded with favour:
With regard to the Swedish loan you are all right. Your
friends could not make a safer investment. The security is
land, pars soil (no building. taken into calculation) and
valued very low, under control of the public authori-
ties. It is altogether as safe as portably can be.
In my opinion dime loans ars betterthan state loans, which
may be lwinonood by slumps of dramatise. nsh-
rims', Iso. When Laos Phdippi fell, holders of Pemba
bonds felt rather uneomfortable, I suspect, and with
what distrust were not Austrian bonds looked upon
at that time ? But as to these provukeial Swedish loans,
for which the soil is mortgaged in legal form, they are com-
pletely independent of political changes, and I can't think
of any chance which could reduce the value of the security
to less than the amount borrowed upon it.
The " Orleans and Epernay Railway of France"
has jest been introduced upon the market, with a
nominal capital of 2,600,0001. in 201. shares, to be
raised in France and England. This line, which
will be 1321 English miles in length, is to proceed
from Orleans to Epernay by way of Oien, Montargis,
Nemours, Monteresu, Promos, Les Ormes, and bil-
lery, and will form a junction with the principal
French lines, including the Epernay and Lille, Stras-
burg, Lyons, Orleans, Nantes, Troyes, and Marseilles.
The concession of the section from Provins to Les
Ormea has already been obtained, and tenders for
the rest of the line have been deposited with the
Minister of Public Works. The districts through
which the line will pass are rich and populous, and
the project is understood to be regarded with much
favour in the Paris market.

The preliminary announcement has been made of
a projaet willed the "London and Westminster
IThaassa Railway," the object of which is to connect
Looks sad Westminster Bridges by a railway run-
dee tbraugh the river Thames, and supported on mat-
ins columns. The capital required is stated to be a
quarter of a million sterling.
The Dutch Rhenish Railway Company are adver-
tising for a loan of 200,0001 sterling, bearing 44
per cent. interest, and redeemable in five years. Thei
security offered consists of the profits of the railway
and the deposit in the Bank of the Netherlands.
The French journals mention that surveys are to
be at once commenced for a railway from Rennes to'
Brest.

Our statement of the movement of the precious
'metals this week is unusually important. The list of
imports, u made up to this afternoon, comprises the
following sums:—By the Europa, from New York,
95,000 dole. ; by La Plata, from the West Indies,
850,000 dole.; by the Severn, from the Brazils,
5651. by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's
steamer Ripon, 9,0001.; by the Iberia, from the Pe-
ninsula, seven packages of specie; by the Eagle,
arrived in the Downs from Port Philip, 150,000
ounces of gold; by the Sapphire, from Sydney,
14,869 ounces ; and by the Maitland, from the same
port, 14,325 ounces. We have hero a total value of
full 915,0001 sterling, of which about 716,0001 is
from Australia.

The exports of the precious metals, direct from
London, during the week ending Thursday, are
thus stated in the Custom house returns :—Gold coin :
to Hamburg, 2,100 ounces and 9,5001. Gold bars :
To Hamburg, 2.950 ounces. Silver coin : To
Hamburg, 2,000 oz. I to Boulogne, 40 oz. ; to
Belgium, 6,000 os. This glves a total of only
5,00 ounces, and 9,5001. in gold, and 7,040
ounces of silver of en aggregate value of only about
21,0001.
The shipments from the out ports have been very
heavy, chiefly to the East and Australia. They in-
clude 20,00 W. by the Medway, and 20,0001. by the
Laurin Thompson, both for Port Philip ; 40,0001.
by the Constance, and 16,0001. by the Morning
Star, both for Hobart Town; about 60,0001. by the
General Screw Steam Shipping Company's steamer
Mauritius, for Calcutta; about 100,000/. by the Lauri-
Won, for the Cape of Good Hone and Bombay ; 5,0001.
T- awn 13004 by Ae Madrid, both for the
reminds ; 7,0001. by the Magdalena, for the West
Indies ; and 429,6631. by the Peninsular and Oriental
Company's steamer Haddington, which will leave
Southampton for Alemandria to-morrow. The parti-
culars of this last named extensive shipment are as
follows :—Por Bombay, silver, 199,635/.; for Ceylon,
gold, 7,1001. ; for Madras, silver, 22,100/. ; for Singa-
pore, gold, 5,0001., and silver, 5,0201. ; for Calcutta,
silver, 91,5451. ; for Hong song. silver, 3,2131. ; for
Canton, silver, 7401. ; and for Alexandria, gold,
92,3001. The total exports from the entire king;
does for the week are thus raised to nearly 720,0 M,

steeling. We consequently find that, notwithstand-
ing the heavy shipments, there is a balance of
im-
ports over export., to the extent of nearly 200,010/,
In addition to the large sums already reported by
us as be;ng on their way to these shores, we learn
that the lido is bringing over the extraordinary
amount of 280,000 ounces, the value of which will
not be leas than 1,120,0001.; and the Neptune about
17,000 ounces, both from Australia.

Remarkable proof of the proireu of Chili and
Peru, in a commercial point of view, is afforded by
the accounts to hand by the La Plata. The first
stone of the Santiago and Valparaiso Railway had
just been laid by General Blanco, and the Peruvian
government had contracted with Messrs. Regan and
Co. for the construction of a railway from Tacna to
Arica. A railway from Serena to the shipping
wharves was also in contemplation, and had already
received a considerable list of subeeriut ions. Tile city of
Copiapo will shortly be lighted with gas, and it is
proposed to extend the same advantage to Valpa-
raiso. The completion of the Uchucuma Canal, a
work which will require 2,000,009 dole., was also se-
riously spoken of. A law for the abolition of the
export duties on minerals was under debate in the
Chabot Chambers, and althtugh encountering strong
opposition, will probably be carried, if not in this, et
bast in some succeeding melon.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.
MARK-LANE.—THIS DAY.
The supply of English Wheat at market this morning
by land-carriage samples from Eases and Kent was
small, and the condition of the balk was very bad;
for the general runs the rates of Monday last were fully
supported, and for picked dry parcels that day's quotations
were in some instances rather exceeded.
The receipts of foreign Wheat and Flour during the
past week were on a liberal scale; and the quantity
offering from on board ship being large, millers Lave no
difficulty in supplying their wants at former prices.
English Barley scarcely sold so well as last week ; but
the sutedpply of foreign being small, its value was fully sup-

FRIGHTFUL OCCURRENCE IN ALDERMANBURY.—
On Saturday an inquest was taken by Mr. W. Payne, the
coroner, at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, as to the death of
Henry Pincher, aged 41. He had been in the service of
Messrs. Chadwick, of No. 7, Dyer's-court, Aldermanbury,
velvet edgers, and, although his residence was at 31, New
Ivy street, Holton, he had been allowed, fkom the great
pressure of buniness, to sleep in the house in Dyer's•eourt,
Mr the last few nights. On Wednesdey night, about 11
o'clock, he went to the top of the house to turn off the gas,
and there is a well staircase all the way up. As he was
coming down, he afterwards said, he wu reaching over the
well to turn off a branch of gas which was in the centre,
when, having a lantert in the ntl!rr hand, his foot slipped,
and he fell all the way down the well-hole. Upon the
noise being heard, some of the persons in the house went
to hie assistance, and a surgeon was sent for, who advised
his immediate removal to the hospital, where he was seen
by Mr. Fletcher, the house-surgeon, who found fracture. of
the thigh and knee-cap, as well as severe injuries to the
head. He died on Thursday. Verdict, " Accident,'
death."
