Two o'CLooi.

There is not much activity in the mining market
to-day, the fortnightly settlement occupying at-
tention. East Caradou and New Rosowarne s
are heavy ; the former have declined 7s. 61., and
the latter 21. 15s. Great South Tolgus are slightly
lower. On the other hand, East Lovell have im-
proved, and Wheal Chiverton are in demand. East
Caradon shares are now quoted 26 to 27 ; New
Rceewarne, 15 to 17} ; Wheal Crotty, 3 to f ;
Wheal Chiverton, oi to 111 ; East Lovell, 6 to f ;
Great South Tolgus, 51. to ; and Wheal Beton,

Foreign and colonial mining shares are quiet, at
previous quotations.
A general meeting of the Elbe Colliery Company

On Saturday the Procurator Piacal made a precognition
of the various witnesses, including the pointamee

poiotaman at Grimm* says that the goods en-
gine penned him about five minutes after the pas-
meager train, that it was going very slow, and the
driver said he was going to Churchill Junction. about •
mile up the line, for empty waggons. It appears that when
there are too many waggons about the Greenock station,
they are taken ap to the jruiettoe, to he out of the way,
and that when the early coal mina fails in getting empty
waggons at °reams*, it expects them at Churchill. The

The stock markets opened this morning with a
dull appearance, but have since become generally
better. The funds have risen 4 per cent.
The foreign stock market is favourably in-
fluenced by the satisfactory progress of the
settlement, and a general advance has oc-
curred in the more speculative descriptions. The
prices now quoted are the best of the day, the con-
tinued flatness of the Paris Bourse failing to elicit
any sympathetic response here.
At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's
telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes were quoted
87fr. 50c., being sc. lower than yesterday.
Consols are now quoted 93 to 4 for money, and
934 to 1 for the account (Nov. 5). The official busi-
ness report is as follows:-Three per Cent. Consols,
for money, 921, 931 ; ditto for account,
934 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 911, 1;

235 ; and Exchequer Bills, par, 35. prem.
Foreign stocks, after showing dulness in the
morning, are now materially better. Mexican
Bonds have risen 4 per cent.. Spanish
Passive 4, Turkish Consolidis 3, and the
Turkish Loan of 1862 aid Greek Bonds

The movements of the last few days have bad the
good effect of purging the market of the weakest
class of speculators. The adjustment of the account,
too, proceeds the more calmly because the heavy
fall in prices took place some days ago, instead of
being deferred till the settlement itself. Yesterday,
in consequence, the rates for loans were decidedly
less heavy than at the last settlement. An ilea
of their general range may be gathered from the
tams for loans on Mexican Boinh, which have been,
in most cassis 7 to 10 per cent. per annum.
After so heavy a fall in prices—amounting in
some instances to 5 per cent. within a few days—it
is evident that the settlement now in progress will
apply a searching test to the solidity of the members
of the Stock Exchange. Apart from the arrange-
ment of the account, the course of the prices of
foreign stocks for the next few days will depend to
a considerable extent on the course of the money
market, a large mass of these securities being held
on borrowed money.

A brisk business was again done yesterday at
the Bank of England Discount-offior, evidently
prompted iu part by au apprehension that the
Bank rate is about to bo raised. It is possible that,
by pressing at the B tuk, the public may themselves
cause a movement to he taken in that direction.

To meet the convenience of holders of the Comm-
, bian Loan, the scrip can be paid up in full at the
London and County Bank under discount at the
rate of 3 per cent. per annum.
It is anticipated that the allotment of the Brazi-
lian Loan will be iKsued to-morrow evening or
Friday.
About 3,0001. in gold was bought by the Bank yes-
terday, and 38,0001. was withdrawn for exportation,
including 30,000 sovereigns and 8,0001. in Russian
coin. The continental exchanges are too high to
admit of gold being sent tram this side at a profit,
but remittances will probably continue to be made
to the East, as well as to various other foreign
parts, on account of the new banks.
The Seine has arrived from the West Indies with
238,0001. in specie. The Armenian, from the West
Coast of Africa, has brought 10,000/.
The &deices from Bombay reporting an advance
in the exchange, the remittances of silver thither
from this country may perhaps increase, notwith-
standing the tightness of the money market.

continent were in good demand, and the rates were
not quite so favourable to this country. The list
