The resources of the Bank continue to augment
with astonishing rapidity. Under the head of de-
posits the movement, on balance, is upwards, and
the " other" securities have again decreased nearly
• million and a quarter ; the result is an increase of
no less than 1,320,2241. in the reserve of notes and
coin, which is thus raised to nearly ten and &quarter
millions. The " other " securities have now dimi-
nished to twenty-one millions—a satisfactory fea-
ture. The increase in the coin and bullion is nearly
a million ; and the total known to be held at this
moment is, consequently, hilly fifteen and a half mil-
lions, with the certainty of a further large increase.

FRIDAY EV13112,10.

This has been a dull day in the Stock Exchange.
The funds experienced very little variation, and
closed the same as yesterday, but the share market,
especially that for British railways, was weaker.
The general appearance of the markets was rather
flat, chiefly in sympathy with the Paris Bourse,
which is still prejudiced by the lack of wisdom dis-
played by the Emperor's counsellors in making the
official journal a vehicle for the expression of intem-
perate and offensive insinuations against states with
whom France is on terms of close amity.
Consols, which closed yesterday at 96/ to 1 for
money and Feb. 4, opened and closed to-day at the
same quotation. The fluctuations were unimpor-
tant. For the 4th March, the last price was 951 to
I. The official business report is as follow.:
Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 96/, 961,
961, N, 951 ; ditto, for account, 961, 96/, 93.
Mires per Cents. Reduced, 961, f, 1, 1. New
Three per Cents., 961, f, f. Long Annuities, ex-
piring in Jan., 1860, 2 1-16. Thirty Years Annui-
ties, April, 1886, 181. Bank Stook, 2251, 226,
226. India Stock, 221/. Three-and-a-Half per
Cent-Exchequer Bonds, Ming payable in 1868, 100/.
Turkish Six per Cents were well supported to-
day, and closed at 981 to 1. The Ottaranteed Four
per Cents were last quoted 105 to 4. There was a
fair inquiry for Dutch, Sardinian, Russian, and
Brazilian Bonds.
