Foreign stocks have not participated yet to any
extent in the improvement of the Consol market.
Scarcely half-a-dozen bargains have indeed been
marked in them, but the quotations show a tendency
upwards. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are
stronger, at 53 to 4; the Fours, at 811 to 21. Danish
are 79 to 81. Mexican, 161 to Spanish Fives,
161 tot ; the Threes, 26/ to 71
From Amsterdam of the Ist inst. it is reported
that the Bank had raised the rate of money on dis-
count 1 per cent., say from 4 to 5 per cent. fur bills,
from 41 to 5/ upon promissory notes, from 41to 51 per
cent. for loans on public securities, and from 5 to 6
per cent. on merchandise. In consequence of this
Imeasure the national funds had not recovered
from the depression of the day before, and remained
weak • the Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 53 9.16 to /.
Spanishl Bonds also had not maintained the improve-
ment of the previous day.
From Frankfort it is advised that the funds had
improved upon the announcement of the Bank of
England movement here. The liquidation for the
month of October was operated with facility on the
29th, and subsequently funded values of all deserip-
, tions were higher. Spanish Threes were in demand
at a rise of! per cent.
This being the 4th of the month, or bill-day, the
result is being looked to with interest. So far no
casualties have been reported, and it is understood
that obligations are in general satisfactorily met at
the banks where made payable.
The following circular has today been issued by
the directors of the Itoyul Bank of Liverpool :
Notice is hereby given, that the directors of the Royal
Bank, acting in pursuance of the wish generally expressed
at the meeting of the proprietors, held at the bank on Sa-
turday, the 30th ult., have resolved that a call of 1001. be
made upon the proprietor of each share of 1,0001., and that
the same shall be paid at the bank on the 4th day of Feb-
ruary next.
Liven pool, Nov. 2. Jon X Ilinurinco, Chairman.
The committee of proprietors beg to recommend urgently
to their brother proprietors, that, in order that the
depositors may be paid with as little inconvenience as pos-
sible, the payment of the call should not be postponed until
the time mentioned in the above notice (which has been pre-
pared in conformity with the requisition in the deed of set-
tlement), but that the proprietors should respond to the
wishes of the meeting by snaking the payment in question on
the let of December next. Interest at 5 per cent. will be
allowed upon calls paid in advance.

RAILWAYS.—Shares have improved, though
slightly, bat with a feeling in the market that they
are likely to be better in consequence of the improve-
ment in funded values. North Westerns and Great
Westerns are both higher, and in demand.

PRODUCE. MINCING-LANIS, Half-past Two.—
The public sales have been few and unimportant to-day,
none of Sugar or Coffee, and the attendance in the Lane has
been thin ; Sugar, however, continues to wear a firm ap-
pearance, with a fair amount of business, but without show-
ing an advance. Importers continue to sell freely, and tho
buyers find ample quantities to select from, while
the present state of credit (although much im-
proved), with' the high rate of discounts, prevents pur-
chases being made more than the immediate wants
of the trade require. Refined lumps, 52a. to 65a—Pimento
300 bags sold freely in public sale at 51d. to 6d., which was
yesterday's currency.—Rice steady.—Cotton continues dull;
sales are unusually made at rather lower prices than the late
public ones, and, therefore, they are not regularly reported.
—Rum, proof Leeward., Is. 8.1. to le. 9d.—Tea remains dull.
—ln other articles no alteration.

. .
TALLOW.—The demand is fair, and prices are
maintained. Petersburg Y. C. on the spot, 455. 3d. ; all
the year delivery, 44e. 6d.; January to March delivery,
455. 6d.

CORK—BASINGSTOKE, Nov. 3.—The market was
well attended ; millers were ehy buyers ; the top price of
white Wkeata, 141. to 141. 10s. per load ; red, 131. to 131. 13a.;
moderate and inferior, 121. to 131. Flour, 425. to 44a. per
bag of 280Iba. Barley .wsa in great supply; prices went
down Is. to 2e. per quarter, finest bright heavy malting
making but 33e. per qr. ; good, 31s. to 3Z. ; best grinding,
30s. to 311. ; inferior, 295. to 38s, Oats, the supply mode-
rate, prices • trifle lower, best Poland/ making but 28s per
qr. ; good black, 245.; common, 225. ; poor, 20s. Beans
from 60s. to 66.. per qr. Peu, white, 62a. per qr. ; grey and
maple, 46.. to 48s. Rye, 17s. to 18.. per sack.

BOSTON, Nov. 3.—The advance of Wheat noted on Satur-
day has brought us a better supply to-day, yet millers had to
give a further advance of la. per qr. for fine dry qualities.
Oats and Beans dull sale at late rates. Wheat, red, 48a. to
545. ; fine, 5.51. ; wbite, 501. to 665. ; fine, 575. Oats, 20a. to
235. ; old, 2.55. ➢eans, 435. to 471. ; old, 545. per qr. to the
grower.
Catenzarsa, Nov. 3. There was a small supply of
Wheat at our market to-day. Wheat however proved suffi-
cient for the demand ; miller. still purchasing very can.
tionsly, at an advance of 2s. per qr. from last market-day.
Barley and other descriptions of grain in moderate supply ;
no alteration in price'. Wheat, 50s. to 54a. Barley, 32.. to
38s. Oats, 235. to Ns. Beans, 435. to 52a. Fens, 40s. to
425. Flour, 40s. per sack.

EXETER, Nov. 2.—There was a good attendance, and
the trade appeared resolved to effect somewhat nearer
assimilation of the prices of Exeter with London, for Wheat.
The growers of the finer and heavier Wheats at first showed
no samples, and time had progressed somewhat considerablz
before anything like animation in business was displayed. In
fact, in the end, the price of Wheat had been subete-
maintained, the average showing only a ,?,eti.e. of 7+
on the qr., as compared with that of tie preceding week, or
rather over three farthings per bushel. Barley maintained
its price.
HAYWARD'S HEATH, Nov. 3.—Oats and Beans met
steady sales at the quotations. Barley and Peas neglected.
Wheat, new, white, 131. to 131. 10s. • red, 121. to 121. 10e.
, Barley, 30s. to 345. Oats, 21s. to 231 i. Beans, 425. to 445.
' Peas, 30s. to 40s.
NEWCASTLE, Nov. 2.—The weather continues of as fa-
vourable a character as possible, and our farmers, having
completed their seeding operations, are beginning to supply
market

the growers; and, having eeveral arrival coastwise, the
trade Saturday's with lem life; still, however,
.upon tht+obusiness
paring,
rates were about sustained. r Flour
there was a fair steady inquiry, and 40e. to 41.. was made of
approved marks of households; whites at the same time com-
manding_from 425. to 44a. ; American in law demand, at
27e. to 20e. per barrel. Rle unchanged. Malting Barley
continues to command attention, and late rates are fully sus-
tained. Malt in request, and anything extra would reach
645. per qr. Beans and Peas as before. Oats steadily main-
tain thew value.
