Two o'CLOca.
The railway share market to-day is dull and en-
settled, but the feeling of panic is apparently
wearing off. Prices in moot instances are quoted
the same u at 4 o'clock yesterday, but in London
and North Western and Lancashire and Yorkshire
stocks a recovery of about 1 per cent. has taken
place. The North Eastern stocks are oleo
more inquired for. Wide prices are still
quoted. London and North Western stock
is now called 88 to 88 ; Great Western, 51 to 63
Midland, 96 to 97 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 88
to 88 ; South Eastern, 181 to per share; and
Caledonian, 72 to 73. MI
se
Lombardo-Venetian Railway shares are rather so
firmer, the Old being quoted 2/ to 2 dim., and the
10
New, 3 to 2/ die. East India Railway stock is
steady, at 91 to 93. Pernambuco shares are marked
4 die. Other foreign descriptions exhibit little actual
recovery,

Two o'OLoai.

The funds opened this morning with heaviness,
at the reduced quotations established yesterday
afternoon. A marked rebound, however,
ensued, Consols attaining • total advance
of nearly 1.1 per rent. This improvement has not
been folly supported, but prices are still quoted
per cent. higher than at the close yesterday.
In the other departments of the Stock Exchange
business is still to • great extent paralysed,
and the tendency to improvement is less decided.
The panic, however, is stayed. Only two failures
have been announced this morning in the establish-
ment.
Consols were first marked 891 for the sth of May,
and, after touching 901, "buyer'," are now quoted
891 to 90. For money the price is the same as
for the account. Bank Stook
Cent has been dealt
Reduced, in
at 215 to 219; the Three per s. at
881 to 891 ; the New Three per Cents., at 88 to
89 ; the New Two-and-a-Half per Cents., at 76;
India Stook, at 216; the Indian Four per Cent.
Debentures of last year, at 891 to 911; the scrip
of the New Indian Loan, at 88% to 90 ; and Exche-
quer Billsat 15e. to 25e, prem.
Before the official opening of the Paris Bonne
this day,acoording to Mr. Renter's telegram, the
Three per Cent. Rents; were dealt in at
61fr. 300. for the account, showing • fresh
fall of nearly per cent, compared with the last
price of yesterday. The telegram adds that " great
agitation" prevails.
Few transactions have taken place in the foreign
stock market, which is still very unsettled. Turkish
Six per Cents. may be considered about 1 per
cent. worse than they closed yesterday, the loan
of 1864 being called 63 to 87, and that of 1838, 53
to 57. Russian Four-and-a-Heat per Cents. are
marked 88, and Sardinian stook, 67. For moat
other descriptions prices are still little more than
nominal. Sales are recorded as follows:—Mexican
Three per Cents., 171; Ragan Four-and-a-Half
per Cents., 88 ; Sardinian Five per Cents., 67 ;
Turkish Six per Cents., 1864, 64, 87, to
66; ditto for aooount, 84 to 68 ; ditto Six
per Cents., 1858, 64 ; ditto, for account (May 17),
62, 58 ; ditto Guaranteed Four per Cents., for
account, 99.
Three and twenty more members of the Stock
Exchange were yesterday
declared unable to meet
their engagements. It is believed that many of
those members who have failed are solvent, provided
the securities held by them could be realised ; but
in the existing rendition of the market, the failure
of one large firm is sufficient to bring down a dozen
others.
Our record of the movements in commercial
circles would be incomplete were we to omit reference
to the feeling of indignation generally expressed at
the exaggerated alarms raised by a leading
journal. Absolute consternation was excited, end
the panic in the Stock Exchange vastly aggravated.
by the authoritative annotuioement of this new con-
spiracy for the partition of Europe. In proportion
to the severity of the shock inflicted is the earnest-
ness of the reprobation now publicly expressed.
The present, above all others, is a moment when
the pen of the journalist should be guided by a
sense of deep responsibility, and when every incen-
tive to the natural proclivity of the public mind to
vague terror should be studiously avoided. An
angry or exalted effusion, appearing at so critical a
juncture in • public journal of influence, may cause
a depreciation of property to the extent of millions,
and ruin thousands of persons. Eand ven the grati-
fication of damaging a ministry paving the
way for another may be purchased too dearly.
In some of the other departments of the Stock
Exchange more steadiness prevailed. The markets
for English, French, and Lombardo-Venetian Rail-
way shares, upon the whole, were less excited,
though still exhibiting little recovery. East Indian
Railway stock has improved, the fall having led to
investments by the public.
The demand for money at the Bank and in all
other quarters was yesterday active, and no transac-
tions take place below the Bank minimum. For long
dated paper exceptionally high rates are still de-
minded. There was, however, no absolute pressure.
About 40,0001. in gold was yesterday withdrawn
from the Bank for exportation to the Continent.
The Committee of the Stook Exchange yesterday
adopted the subjoined special resolution, under which
the preparations for the monthly.settlement in Con-
sols were commenced yesterday, instead of on Mon-
day. The average price was fixed at 90. " Under
existing circumstances, parties having sonnuts
in
English stock or Reduced may make them up this
day, the clerk of the house fixing the average price,
as usual."
Another great rise has taken place in the Austrian
exchange. Bills on Vienna were quoted yesterday
afternoon 130. to 141f1., but, unless of the very best
quality, could not be placed at all. The Leghorn
exchange has again risen. As regards paper on I
St. Petersburg and Fade, repecially the former, the
movement wastage, in favour of this country. Drafts
on Holland and Hamburg, however, were in de-
mend, and quoted lower. Generally, it may be re- I
marked, the quotations, some of which are given
below, were uncertain, and there were very few
buyers of long dated paper.

In Mark-lane yesterday holders of English wheat
demanded a adv of 2e. per qr making a
rise of 41. since last Monday, and of 6r. t fis. since
the previous Friday.
The tallow market yesterday was weaker.
The result of the week's transactions in tie Liver-
pool cotton market has been a nominal reduction of
Id. to Id. per lb. At the close the market is steadier
in character.
At Lloyd's yesterday the war risks on English flags
ranged as hollows, viz.:—lndia and China, 20e. per

FZIDAT iTEWINS.

The funds opened this morning with an improved
appearance, at advanced prices, and for some time
comparative animation was shown. After a rise of
14 per cent., however, influential sellers cane for-
ward, and a relapse set in. Daring the afternoon
the gloom continued to increase, until at the close
prices were actually 4 per cent. worse than at the
close yesterday.
Consols, which closed yesterday at 801 to 4 for
mmrhand the 6th oay, were first marked this
g 901, rose to 904 to 91, but quickly relapsed,
and after numerous fluctuations closed at 89 to 4. At
still later riod the market was slightly firmer,
at 89k to 1. The official business report s as fol-
lows ;—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 90, nk,
901, 91, 891, 904, 891 ; ditto, for account (6th May),
901, 904, 901, 904, 894, 881, 891; Three per Cents.
Reduced, 894, 891, 881, 89, 90 ; New Three per
Cents., 894, 891, 884, 90, 884, 884; Bank Stock,
220, 216; Indian Four per Cent. Debentures, leaned
last year, 911, 901; ditto, Scrip of the new lon,
901, 40, 911, 90, 891.
The new Indian loan exhibits a fresh fall of 4 per
cent., the closing quotation being 891 to 901, or sey
5 discount. In the morning purchases were re-
cozded as high as 914. The Four per Cent. Deben-
tures issued last year left off at 901 to 914.
Exchequer Bills were rather firmer to-day, the
quotation ranging from 10s. to 20$. prem.
In the fon ign stock market the principal feature
was a considerable rebound in Turkish stocks, the
depression in which has of late been so excessive.
The market for Bank shares was flat, with little
business. To effect sales lower prices must have
been conceded. Ottoman Bank sharer, however,
were more inquired for. National Discount, London
Discount, and Peel River Land shares also met with
some inquiries. Red Bea Telegraph shares were
somewhat firmer, closing at 14 to 1 die. Generally,
however, the market for miscellaneous shares pre-
seated little signs of recovery.
Victoria Government bonds were in demand to-
day. Other colonial government securities retain •
drooping tendenoy, anti were widely quoted.
The Four-and-a-Half per Cent. Debentures of the
East Indian Railway Company were officially
marked 94 and 93.
