The Express.
London, England, 1851-04-21 00:00:00

are receiving supplies from the cast and the
west, that they will soon cease to make a
demand on England. The markets in the l'acitic,
notwithstanding they arc exporters of bullion,
likewise receive it from California, and there is every
appearance that a redundancy must take place there.
To wnatevcr extent California supplies directly the
south coast, China, and Australia, the demand on
this market must be diminished; but perhaps ulti-
mately the predominance of London as a bullion
market will be affected. From the latest bank re-
turns the stock of bullion held in public establish-
ments throughout Europe is larger. with the excep-
tion of England; but on deducting this diminution of
the Bank of England stock, the excess due to Cali-
fornian or other imports is not considerable or re-
markable.
It is to be expected that the civil war in I'ortugal
will for a time retard the return of the specie re-
mitted to that country last autumn and winter
seasons.
The present quotations of the London market are:
Bar gold, 31. 17s. 9d. per ounce standard; Colum-
bian doubloons, 3/. 17a. lid. to 3!. 18s. per ounce; bar
silver, ss. 1 Id. per ounce standard ; ditto holding
five grains of gold, 524. 11,d. per ounce ; dollars,
4s. 11!.,d. per ounce; pillar ditto, .is. Id. per ounce.
The imports of bullion this week have included
40,373/. by the Arctic from the United States ;
2,600/. by the 'fay from the Brazils ; 3,000!. by the
Iberia Peninsular and Oriental steamer ; and
1,170,1;10 dols., or 291,122'., by the Clyde, from —;
making a total of 340,095/.
The Herman, from the United States, brought
' over 45,000 dols. fur Havre; and the Franklin,
500,000 dols. for the same port. Considerable ship-
ments for Europe are promised by forthcoming

steamers.
The amount of the precious metals exported direct
front London during the week ending Thursday last,
we learn from official sources, was restricted to
40,000 ounces of silver coin to Rotterdam, which may
be taken to represent a value of 10,0001.
Besides the exports from the port of London,
50,1)4o1. have been taken oat by the Bosphorus to the
Cape of Good Hope. The Avon, with the West
Indian anti Mexican' mails, also took out 22,550/.,
and the Montrose, Peninsular and Oriental steamer,
10,000/. for Lisbon.
An analysis of the railway traffic returns of the
United Kingdom for the last week, published in
Rerapalli's Journal, shows that the total receipts on
6,238 miles were 248,480/., being at the rate of
39!. la.. per mile per week. For the corresponding
period of 1850 the receipts were 236,-187/. on 5,648
miles, or at the rate of 41/. 15s. per mile per week. •
There is thus an increase in the aggregate amount
received of 11,993/. or 5.07 per cent., an increase in
the mileage of 590 miles or 10.61 per cent., and a
decrease of 2!. in the amount received per mile per
week. The Railway Times estimates the gross
traffic returned since theist of January at :3,336,063!.,
which on 6,169 miles, gives an average of :5391.05. 71d.
per mile. Last year, for the same period, the re-
empts on 5,621 miles were 3,044,4541., equal to
541/. 12s. sd. per mile, so that the balance is still
against the present year to the extent of 2/. lbs. 911
per mile.
