Intelligence was received yesterday of the arrival off
Penzance of .the Kent from Port Phillip, with the
enormous quantity of 132,000 oz. of geld on freight,
worth 528,0001. Including the sums brought in by
the Oliver Lang and White Star, the aggregate of
the Australian arrivals is raised to no less than
1,166,0001. Owing to the magnitude of these sup-
plies hopes are entertained that a considerable portion
will be sent into the Bank, but nothing definite can yet
be stated on this point, as the gold will not be in hand
for several days.
The Kent sailed from Port Phillip on the 14th
September, and ooneequently brings thirteen days'
later news. This vessel, which belongs to Messrs.
Money Wigram and Co., is noted for the quick pas-
sages she has effected. On the present occasion she
has mad, the return voyage in about three weeks
less time than the Oliver Lang.
The market for sugar yesterday was extremely flat,
there being no buyers whatever at the high prices
recently established. It is evident that sellers will
be required to make a considerable concession. Rome
revival of imports, and a sensible falling qlf in the
deliveries, have materially contributed to check the
late rampant tendency of the market.
In the coffee market, plantation Ceylon sold at full
rates, but the native sorts went at a decline of Ss. per
cwt. from the last public sale price.
The prospectus is issued of the London Auxiliary
Screw Ship Company, formed under the New Limited
Liability Act, with a commencing capital of 200,0001.
in 201. shares. The proposed object is the construo-
tion of a feet of iron clipper screw vessels. The
directors, it appears, do not contemplate confining
their ships to any specific line, but propose to employ
them from time to time on the stations most likely to
afford !profitable returns. Cowlitional arrangements
have already been entered into for the building of two
vessels. The deposit is to be 41. per share, and the
remaining 161. is to be paid in eight instalments of
21. each, at intervals of not less than two months.
The numbers are published of 599 bonds, repre-
senting 110,0001., of the Russian Four-and-a-Halt per
Cent. Loan, which are to be paid off at par by Messrs.
Baring, Brothers, and Co., between the Ist January
and 28th February next.

pany for the month of October were 98,5491. sterling,

October, 1854. - -
The receipts of the Great Western Railway of
Canada for the week ending the 9th instant were

The fourth call of 11. is to be paid on the shares of
the Bridport Railway by the Bth January.
The half-early meeting
early of the Southwark and
Vauxhall Water Company is called for the 14th
December.

TVZODAY

The English funds attained a further rise of 1 per
cent. this morning, and, although this advance wee
not maintained in the afternoon, the market was
generally steady in character, notwithstanding an
mensal in the demand for money in the Stock
Exchange. Five per cent. was given for loans on
government stocks, except Console, on which the rate
was rather easier. The favourable features imme-
diately affecting the market are the extraordinarily
heavy arrivals of gold, the flatness of the corn market,
sad the approaching deduction of the Coned divi-
dend. On the 'deerse side must be enumerated the
bigh rates maintained for money, drooping oonti-
metal exchanges, and the heavy " continuation
ea Consols to the January account. We have
already adverted, however, to some considera-
tions explanatory of this latter feature. The
present rate of ' oontango" of 7-16 to 1 per cent.
may perhaps be subjected to some modification as the
account day in Consols—the 6th December—ap-
proaches. It has frequently been noticed that the
supply of Consol stock in the market has been sud-
denly reduced by the withdrawal, just prior to the
closing of the transfer books, of amounts of stock
which lad previously been lent in the market.
In Lombard-street a very active demand for money
was experienced, with a not over-abundant supply.
A certain degree of relief, however, will be imparted
should any considerable portion of the Australian
gold arrivals be retained here.
Consols for the 6th December were quoted during
a great part of the morning 881 to 89, and eloped the
same as yesterday, at 881 to 1. For money the final
quotation may be given at 881, and for the new ac-
count of the 10th January at 891 to 1. The official
business report is as follows :—Three per Cent.

Business is also marked to-day in Omnium at If
prem.
Exchequer Bills showed a further slight recovery,
closing at 7s. to 34. die. India Bonds were dealt in
at Bs. to 3s. die.
A good amount of business was done in foreign
bonds, but there was little change in prices.
