Tho share market is very active to-day with the
progress of the arrangements fur the settlement of
the account, which occupy a great deal of
attention, and so far have proceeded satis-
factorily. The rates of " continuation" generally
rule rather lighter than on Saturday, but only
small portion of this business remained over till
today, having been nearly co:npleted on Satur-
day. The decline of that day has in all cases been
recovered, and in many instances a decided advance
has taken place, the general feeling of the market
being much better. Caledonians, Great Westerns,

MONEY MARKET.

THIS DAY.

Two o'CLoct

The disturbed feeling of Saturday has passed
away from the English stock market, but the buoy-
ancy of tone previously observable has not returned.
The marked rise in the Paris Bourse, eat ending to nearly
all securities there dealt in, is attracting great atten-
tion, but it does not produce any equivalent sympa-
thetic action upon our market, though consi-
derations of continental politics ace confes—
sedly the only cheek up..t quotations here,
which, in the case of a satisfactory solu-
tion of the grace political questions now pending,
would, there can be no moral doubt, rise, in the case
of the English Government Funds, to par, or
beyond it.
Console closed on Saturday at 961 for the IGth
January. To-day they opend to subsequently
receded to 961, and have since returned to the first
price of the day, at which they now stand. The fol-
lowieg is the official report of business in this depart-
ment : Three per Cent. Consols (shut), 97i; ditto for
account tnli, div. Three per Cent. Reduced,
97, ; New 'three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 981, 98,
P:xcheqner bills are steady at 48e. to 31s. prem.,
and Indi,i bonds at 335. to Gls. prem., with a quiet
business.

Prices of the foicign investments are firm, and
where any change is to be noted, it is in a favourable
sense. 'Mc transactions of the morning have been
rather mole numerous than of late, but are partly
prompted by the settling, which is in progress. Sales
arc reported as follows:—Brazilian Old Five per
Cent., 931; ditto for acount, 3 tst December, 911. Da-
nish Three per Cents., 1825, 77. Dutch Two and-a-
Half per Cents., 59 ; ditto Feur per Cent. Certifi-
cates, 90. French Five per Cent. 'lentos, 98f. (ex-
change, 25f. 25e.) Mexican Bonds, 251,1 ; ditto

Five per Cent. Bonds, 82, I. Spanish Active

Venezuela Throe-and-a-Quarter per Cents, 34'4.
A largo import of specie is reported from Liver-
pool by cleetr:e telegraph this morning, being a
million and a half of dollars, by the Africa from New
York.

The market for the Californian gold mining'shares
presents no particular change, prices lemming at
about Saturday's range. Shares in the new English
and Australian Copper Smelting Company arc quoted
to iprom.

SATURDAY EVRNINO.

Oar Belgian advices mention that a bill has been
presented to the Chamber of Representatives, autho-
rising the government to issue in exchange fur the
coupon sheets of the loan of 1818, which expired on
the Ist of November last, new titres of 2,000, 1OHN),
200, and 100 francs respectively. A sinking fund of
1 per cent, will he applicable to this loan.
The discount market has been freer towards the
close of the week, without, however, any change of
rates. The supply of bullion is looked to with at-
tention, as litany to influence the course of monied
operations, but •while the influx is large, and the
Bank of England stocks increasing, the returns of
the Bank of France give a slight index of what
political disturbance can effect in the way of coun-
teraction.

In the United States a great change is observable
in the public mind as to the operations of Californian
gold. The same alarm is no longer excited by its
import, and it scams to be admitted, independently
of the amounts passing through New York simply in
transit for foreign account, that the export of specie
as an article of merchandise, and of United States
preduci", is becoming an established branch of busi-
ness.

- lt is to be observed at the same time that although
much of the bullion is only transitory, it has given
rise to vast operations in the United States. The
.I",te Fork //era/(1 makes the following estimate of
the increase of capitals in the United States in the
last four years :—Banking capital, 60,000,000 dols. ;
loans and discounts, 150,000,000 dols.; new joint
stock companies, 75,000,000 dole.; individual opera-
tions, 200,000,000 dols. Other items would swell
this to 125,000,000/. sterling.
The Bank of France returns for the week ending
Thursday, the I Ith of December, show the follow-
ing results (25 francs for 1/.) :

The imports of specie this week include 3001. by
the Peninsular and Oriental steamer Indus; 2,6011.
by the Peninsular and Oriental steamer Tagus ;
601,800 dots. by the Cambria from New York;
1,973,551 dots. by the Dec from the West Indies, of
which 1,615,780 arils. were in silver, and 337,771
dols. in gold (the particulars being as follows: Specie
from the Gulf of Mexio, 1,475,165 dols.; specie and
bullion from Panama, 181,527 dots.; from California,
197,722 dots.; from Carthagena, 66,098 dots.; from
Jamaica, 15,028 dols.; from Santa Martha, 29.599
dols.; from other parts of the West Indies, 16,821
dols.); 2,3101. by the Tenet from the Brazils ;
and 4,5001. by the I'ropontis from the Cape and
Sierra Leone. The total value of these imports is
about 330,000/.

There bare been no ex arts of gold direct front
London this week. The supplies of silver from this
market have amounted to 40,033 ounces, shipped as
follows :—Silver coin : To Cape Coast Castle, 6,000
ounces ;to Rotterdam, 16,000 ounces. Silver bars :
To Rotterdam, 16,033 ounces ; to Boulogne, 2,000
ounces. The aggregate value of these exports may
be taken at 10,0001.
The other exports consist of 133,105/. shipped by
the Severn for the Brazils, of which 103,1081. was
for Rio Janeiro ; 28,000/. fur the River Plate ; and
2,000/. for Madciia. Tho total exports from tho
United Kingdom arc thus 143,103/.
_

Au analis of the railway 'traffic returns of the
United Kingdom for the last week, published by
Ilerapath's Journal, shows the total receipts on 6,442
miles to be 245,1751., or equal to 381. per mile per
week. In the corresponding week of last year, the
amount was 224,8111. on 6,192 miles, or 361. .5.5. per
mile per week. There is consequently an increase in
the aggregate receipts of 20,3611., or 9 per cent., an
increase in the mileage of 250 miles, or 4 per cent.,
and an increase of 11. 15s. in the amount received
per mile per week. The Railway Times estimates
the total receipts since the Ist July at 7,013,4631.,
which, on 6,281 miles, gives an average of
1,121/. 7s. 10d. per mile ; and as the amount for the
corresponding period in 1850 was only 6,075,759/.
on 5,973 miles, or 1,0171. 4s. Old. per mile, the diffe-
rence is shown to be in favour of the present year to'
the extent of 104/. 3s. 9ld. per mile.
At the meeting of the Bank of Ireland proprietors
held in Dublin on Friday a dividend of 4 per cent.
for the half year ending the 25th ult., was an-
nounced ; the amount of thereat which this dividend
left was not mentioned.
