The corn market yesterday was very firm, and wheat
commanded an advance of 3s. per. qr. over lut Monday's
rates, At most of the country markets the supplies

The Stock Exchange settlement in the shares and
bonds of the Lombardo-Venetian Railway is fixed for
the 23rd inst., to allow time for the receipt of the
!nip from the Continent. The settlement in Madras
Railway Third Extension shares is to take place on
Thursday next.
On Friday next will also take place the long de-
fined settlement in the securities of the Royal
Swedish Railway, transactions in which, it will be
remembered, were temporarily discouraged pending
the investigation into the frauds committed by the
late John Sadleir. The Stock Exchange Committee
have pared a resolution, however, that "Such
shares and obligations only hall pass current as have
received the verification of the Committee of Investi-
gation to the signatures attached thereunto." This
step of the Stock Exchange authorities has been de-
fined until the receipt from Sweden of
the formal ratification of the resolutions
which were passed at the at meeting of
i the company n London. The shares and bonds
irregularly issued are thus formally recognised by
the company. The English board continue to remit
money to Sweden for the prosecution of the works,
with the view of opening the 46 miles of railway to
Orebro daring the present summer. Very recently
the Crown Prince of Sweden, who has Just been
elected Viceroy of Norway, passed over a portion of:
the line, in company with the Pinata, and expressedl
great satisfaction with it. The preference stock of
the company will now be issued to the original sham
holden, and there is reason to hope that, under the
management of the present executive, this unfortu-
nate undertaking may be motored to a position of
comparative prosperity.

With reference to the market for indigo, Messrs.
Layton, Hulbert, and Co. remark : "The July sales
are fixed for the Bth of that month, and 2,788 chests
are at present declared. Nothing has been done
since the termination of the May sale beyond placing
a few bought-in lots to complete orders. The trade
are anxiously waiting for the catalogues to inspect
the new crop, 8,000 chests of which are already in
the warehouse."
