; for the new account (June 8), which is
now given as ex the dividend, is the same as

cipal home railway stocks have declined fto * per
cent. Foreign stocks, In the majority of instances,
have likewise given way, the reduction being,
especially observable in Spanish Passive Bonds
and Certificates.

favourable reaction. Spanish Passive Bonds

at 341, and last at 331, showing a material
reduction from yesterday's prices. Spanish
Certificates, as well as Mexican and New Grenadian

Consols remain dull, at 93 7-16 to 9-16, or 931,
for money, and 921 to 1., ex div., for the account
(June 9). About 360,000 sovereigns have been
withdrawn from the Bank for Brazil.

The commercial demand for money was some-
what brisker yesterday, and little business was done
below 24 per cent, yet the applications at the
Bank of England were very moderate.
In connexion with the impending settlement iu
Consols the failure of a member of the Stock Ex-
change is announced, but the amount of his liabili-
ties is unimportant...

There were no bullion operations at the Bank yes-
terday, but as only a slight demand is experienced
for the Continent, further amounts of bars are ex-
pected to be sent into this establishment. On the
other hand, some exceptional withdrawals of sove-
reign; for transmission to Brazil, are looked for.
The City of Baltimore, from New York, has
brought 68,0001. in specie, and the Magdalena,
from Brazil, 6,8661. The Bremen, from New York,
is bringing 18,0001.
Bar silver has slightly improved in price. Trans-
actions have taken place at 611 d. per ounce, though'
the market is not particularly firm, there being no
revival of the Indian demand.
The bidding* for 40,00,000 rupees (400,0001.) in
bills on India took place yesterday at the Bank of
Ragland. The proportions allotted were :—To Cal-
cutta, 24,00,000 Rs. ; to Bombay, 16,00,000 Ra. ;
to Madras, oil. The declared minimum price was
as on the last occasion, viz., Is. 11td. per rupee on
Calcutta, and Is. 111 d. on Bombay and Madras.'
The applications within the limits were for about
67 lace (670,0001.). Tenders on Calcutta at Is. 110.
will receive about 70 per cent. ; on Bombay, at
Is. 11k1., about 57 per cent. ; and all above these
prices in full.
Ceylon Government Six per Cent. Debentures for
250,0001. were disposed of by public tender yester-
day by the Agents General for Crowneolonies, being
the first instalment out of a million authorised to
be raised for the construction of a railway from
Colombo to Kandy. The bidding* reached in the
aggregate 1,293,0001. The minimum was fixed at
111, and the amount offered at and above that rate
was 372,5001. The tenders accepted ranged from
1121. Is. to 1121. be. 6d. These prices are consi-
derably above anything hitherto realised for similar
government securities--a fact probably due to the
plethora in the money market here, combined with
the flourishing state of the colony, the &bemire of
public debt, and the knowledge that the money is
to be spent by the government in reproductive
works.

The settlement in the shares of the Asia Minor
Company (Limited) took place yesterday in the
Stock Exchange, although the question of winding
up the concern—a course recommended by the di-
rectors— is still pending.
The shares of the Cannes Hotel Company have
risen to 4 to 44 prem., while those of the London
Financial Association (the list for which was closed
yesterday, with applications, it is said, to the extent
of four or five times the capital required) have
declined, owing to the approaching introduction
of large projects of a somewhat similar character.
These are looked for with great interest, as the
powerful nature of the combinations which are
being formed renders it probable that the shares
will command high premiums.
It is officially stated that the committee of London
bankers have resolved to admit the Alliance Bank
of London and Liverpool to the clearing-house on
the Ist July next.
At the annual meeting of the Sovereign Life
Offlue, held yesterday, the report stated that the
new premiums received in 1862 amounted to 5,7391.
18e. 6d. The income of the company now exceeds
50,0004 ; upwards of 17,0004 was added to the
reserve.

We are requested to Mate that the share list of
the Oriental Tea Company will be closed on Satur-
day next, the 9th inst., and that of the Anglo-Indian
Cotton Company on the 14th.
