Tho English stock mavket remains firm, and it
is generally considered that the intelligence from
Australia, just to hand by the Overland Mail, will
have a favourable influence on prices. Consols have
been firm all day, at 100 to k for money, and
100 l to for account, with a very quiet business.
There has been a transaction in the South Sea New
Annuities, at 99, but no other stock has been
touched. The June Exchequer Bills remain quoted
100. to 14s. prem.; and the March, Bs. to 12s. prem.
In the foreign market the settling is in progress.
