MINES.-(THIS DAY.)

Two o'Clooz.
In the mining market to-day, East Caradon shares
are not quite so strong, at 44 to ; while Wheal
Ludcott are very firm, at 91 to 101; and
Wheal Union at 51 to 1. Mirka Valley are
fiat at 9 to ; and East Carn Brea
dull, at 14 to 191. Great Wheal Fortune are
quoted 25 to ; North Downs, 31 to 4 ; Wheal
Pollard, 9s. to lla ; Wheal Beton 129 to 131;
Great South Tolgus, 5i to ; and *heal Ilny,
have
been 1. In the Stock Exchange East Caradon have
been dealt in at 45 ; East Cam Brea, at 191, 191,
and 19 ; Wheal Grenville, at 74 ; and Kingston
Downs, at 3 and 31.
Foreign and colonial mining shares are almost
without change. Scottish Australian are officially
marked 14 and 11 prem. ; St. John del Rey, 60,
604, and 591, being firmer ; and United Mexi-
can, 61.
The Truro correspondent of Messrs. Webb and
Geach remarks as follows in their circular :
The extraordinary amount of speculation, and the run-
ning up and down of shares on your London market,
creates great utonishment here, particularly am emu that
seem most prominent with you are held in very small con-
sideration in the county. The worst feature of all this
" bulling" and " bearing" is, that it creates a set of re-
ports made to order—so to speak—by men who should be
above such matters, but whose private partialities, restwat-
men* or pique are cunningly availed of by those interested
in influencing the market. It must never be forgotten,
that the feeling of perusal rivalry between the leading
agents, and the leading seta of mines re very strong in Corn-
wall ; and that, consequently, upsets madeto the broker's
order should be received cum plum

TEE SECOND READING Or TIM BALLOT BILL.—
Mr. Berkeley's Ballot Bill was brought in on Friday after-
noon. and reed a 6rst time. The second reading is heed for
Wednesday, July god. Br the vote of Tuesday night, the
question is removed from its usual condition of a discussion
on secret voting, in the abstract, end the house will have
before it the exact plan proposed by Mr. Berkeley, and be
able to compare its provisions with those of the government
Corrupt Practices Prevention Act. Liberal member. will,
no doubt, muster strongly on the second reading in order to
seem a hir consideration for the question of the ballot.

MONBY MARKET—(THIS DA b)

Two o'Czocz.

The funds to-day are firm. Though little change
has occurred in prices, the tendency is rather
favourable. In the other markets there has been
scarcely any feature of interest, with the exception
of a fresh rise in Spanish Certificates. Business
generally remains very dull.

Turkish Loan scrip is quoted 21 to 21 prem. ;
Egyptian 11 to 11 prem. ; and Russian 1 to
prem.

At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's
telegram, the Three per Cent. Ratites opened at
70fr. 05c., being 4 per cent, lower than on Saturday.
Console are officially marked 93/ and 4, cuss
div., for money, and 924, ex div., for
the account. The present quotations are
931 to 1, cum div., for cash, and
924, "sellers," ex div., for the 10th instant.
The official business report is as follows :-Three
per Cents. Reduced, 911, 1 ; New Three
per Cents., 911, 1, 4 ; India Five per
Cent. Stock, 1091, 110 ; ditto Bonds, 28s. prem. ;
Four per Cent. " mewed" rupee paper, 92 ; ditto
Five per Cent., 1031 ; ditto Five-and-s-Half per
Cent., 1081, 104 ; Exchequer Bills, 108., 135.,
prem. ; ditto advertised, 12a, 95., prem.
The foreign stock market is more active. The
principal feature is a further considerable rise in
Spanish Certificates, which have been dealt in
as high as 91, but last at 91 and 91.
The Turkish Loan of 1854 has improved to 81
to 1, while that of 1868 remains compara-
tively quiet, at 70 to 1. Mexican Bonds
and Italian Five per Cents. are steady.
Transactions are recorded as follows :-Brazilian
Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1852, 1868, 1860,
911, 1, ex div. ; Chilian Four-and-a-Half

The steamer La Plata has arrived from the West
Indies, with no less than 818,0001. in specie.
The Australasian, from New York, has brought
72,0001. in specie.
The Shannon will take to-day 8,4001. in gold
and 1,4001. in silver for the West Indies.

The bar gold now in course of remittance to
Spain, as for a long time past, is required for the
purpose of coining. The old specie currency of
that country, especially the doubloon, is now being
replaced, and the new issue includes a coin of the
value of 100 reels, or about 11. sterling. The ex-
portation of gold from England for this purpose is
expected to continue in moderate amounts. At
the moment the demand is above the average.
A very legitimate undertaking is announced
under the title of the Ottoman Gas Company
(Limited). Its peculiar features are that it
possesses a concession direct from the Sultan
giving an exclusive privilege of lighting Smyrna—
a rising commercial city, with a population of be-
tween 150,000 and 175,000 persons—for 40 years,
and that the maximum limit fixed for the price to
be charged by the company is as much as 13a. Bd.
per 1,000 cubic feet to consumers, and only one-
tenth less for the public lights. It is pointed out
that the increased price of coal at Smyrna,
as compared with London, will add at
most is. 6d. to each 1,000 cubic feet of
gas manufactured, while the company has the right
to charge three times the price levied in London.
It is contemplated hereafter to undertake the light-
ing of other cities in the Ottoman dominions.
Shareholders will have the option of paying up in
full, and receiving 5 per cent. interest until the
company shall begin to supply gas. The capital is
100,0001., in shares of bl. each, but the first issue
will be limited to 50,0001. The board is very respect-
able, and more than half of its members are identi-
fied with the direction of existing gas companies.
The traffic manager of the Cape Town Railway
Company, under date of April 21, reports that the
receipts from traffic of all kinds, from Feb. 13 to
April 20, amounted to 3,2931. 19e. 101 on 21 miles
of line. Sixteen thousand passengers bad been con-
veyed during that period. Formal application had
been made to the government to open a further
portion of the line to Stellenbosch on the Ist
of May.
The receipts of the Grand Trunk Railway of
Canada for the week ending the 10th inst. were
15,038/. sterling, being 2,0441. more than in the
corresponding week of last year.
The half-yearly meeting of the Peninsular and
Oriental Steam Company will be held ou the 3rd
of June.

The annual meeting of the Law Fire Insurance
Society was held at the offioes., in Chancery-lane,
on the 27th inst. The directors' report for the year
1861 described a steady increase of business and
of prosperity. During the year there has been an
increase of 1,342,7961. in the sum insured, the
total of which is 25,579,4361. In the pre-
miums, the year's increase is 1;7521., the
total received being 29,0981. The excess of
receipt over expenditure for the year 1861 was
11,0681. 15s. 9d. in favour of the society. The
directors have declared interest for the year at the
UMW rate of 2s. 6d. per share, being 5 per cent.
upon the paid-up capital, and also a bonus of 2s.
per share, making together 9 per cent.
. _

On Thursday evening the Emperor Life and Fire
Assurance Societies held their annual meetings at
the London Tavern, Mr. Ebenezer Clarke presiding.
The number of life policies issued has increased
from 32, representing 7,5404, in 1866, to 7,643,
representing 375,0591., in 1862. The proposals
accepted during the past year have been 2,148 in
number, assuring 76,8491. The directors antici-
pate a considerable increase during the present
year. A dividend of 5 per (snit upon the paid up
capital was recommended and declared. A steady
increase is also reported in the fire insurance busi-
ness, although the directors state that their plan
is to do a safe rather than a large and hazardous
business. The reports were unanimously adopted,
and thanks were voted to the directors, secretary,
and staff. Mr. Ebenezer Clarke, jun., the secre-
tary, mentioned, as a result of the unwillingness of
the office to raise technical difficulties in respect of
claims, that the society's law expenses last year
amounted to only N.

At the quarterly meeting of the National Free-
hold Land Society, held at the London Tavern on
Friday, the accounts for the quarter ending the
30th April showed a total of 112,4051. of receipts,
and a cash balance of 5.3311. The chairman, Hr.
Morro, drew attention to the satisfactory features
involved in the increase in the amount of mem-
bers' capital, which is now 441,1111., also in the in-
creme on the other aide in the members' securities,
and in the amount in the hands of the British Land
Company, which is 347,9321. He regarded the
small attendance of members at the meeting as an
indication that the affairs of the society were pro-
ceeding smoothly. Tho report and statement of
accounts for the three months were adopted.

A general meeting of the Royal Danish Railway
Company will be held on the 30th of June at
Flensburg.
