THIS DAY.—Two o'CLocK.

The English stock market to-day has again shown
itself insensible to unfavourable political reports, a
decided advance having taken place, chiefly owing to
continued purchases on the part of late operators
for a fall, who are uneasy at the approach of
the settling day. Consols opened 944 to for
Thursday, and, after touching 95, are now
quoted 941 to 95 for money, 09! to I for the 10th
Nov., and 94a to for December. The Three per
Cents. Reduced have been dealt in at 93: to 94 :
the Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 95: to 96; India
Stock, 253; South Sea Stock, 113; Bank Stock,
217 ; Exchequer Bills, 2s. to 4s. prem.
Prices of foreign stocks are generally well main-
tained. Mexican is quoted 26 to ; and Spanish
Deferred, 21; to 22. Peruvian Four-and-a-Half per
Cents. have been dealt in at 724 to 1; ditto Three per
Cents., 504 to 51 ; Sardinian, 93 to 1; Spanish Old

FRIDIT EVENING

The home mining market has been less active than
yesterday, and in some cases prices are barely sus-
tained. Generally, the transactions have been un-
marked by any distinguishing feature. Tincrotts
show a downward tendency. The sales reported to
us are :--SonthCaradon, at 295, 300 ; Alfred Consols,
251, 26; Grambler and St. Aubyn, 231, 25 ; Wheal
Trefusis, 17 ; Fist Tronloeb, 61, 61; Wheal Tre-
mayne, 6, 61; Bell and Lanartb, 91, 10; Trannack
and Bosence, 51 ; Wheal Speedwell, 545.; \Wheal
Chiverton, 71, 8; Wheal Uny, 91,10 ; Cook's Kitchen,
21, 27.
The gold mining shares were a shade less firm
to-day, but there was scarcely any variation in prices,
and business was very limited. At 4 o'clock Colonial
Gold were voted 1 to 1 prem. ; British Austres
Ilan, fto die. ; Port Phillip, 7-1' to 5-16 dis.:
Nouveau Monde, ; to 1 prem.; Agua Fria, 1, to
prem.
Imperial Brazilian shares were again in demand,
at a further rise of 10s. per share. Copiapo shares

rose 11., and Linares also showed an improving ten-
dency. The W est Indian descriptions remain heavy,
and Metcalfe Copper have fallen to to premium.
This is certainly an extraordinary fall from the price
of 18 premium within a few months. It will be re-
membered that, when the prim of these eharce stood at
about 14 premium, the chairmen of the company ad-
vised his fellow-shareholders to hold their shares.
