Great dullness continues to prevail in the Stock In the mining market to-day Stray Park

Consols are officially marked 94$ and 1 for money,
and 941 and 1 for the account. The present quota-
tions are 941 to / for cash, and 941, " buyers,"
for the 9th of May. Bank Stock has been dealt
in at 2244, 224, 2254 ; Three per Cents. Reduced,
at 1931, # ; New Three per Cents., at 931,

chequer Bills, at 6a., B*., and 10s. prem.
The foreign stock market is likewise inactive.
The Turkish Loan of 1858 is rather flatter at 61 to
4, whilst that of 1854 is quoted 764 to 1, ex div.,
after being marked 77. Other foreign stocks are
dull. Sales are recorded as follows :
Brazilian Old Five per Cents., for account, 994,
ex div. ; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1858,
91; ditto Four-and-a:Halt per Cents., 1660 (scrip),

Messrs. Thomson, Boner, and Co. announce the
half-yearly dividend, due the Ist pros., on the
Russian Three per Cent. Loan of 1859.
The numbers are published of 521 bonds, repre-
senting 63,2001., of the Danish Three per Cent.
Loan, which have been purchased under the re-
demptiou fund, and cancelled.
The Copenhagen arrived off Dartmouth yesterday
from Melbourne, after a passage of 119 days, with
157,0001 in gold. The Illinois and Arabia, from
New York, have brought 30,0001. for England ;
and the Behar, from Lisbon, 3,3761.
We are assured that the revived rumour of a
coming Russian loan is unfounded.
We are sorry to bear reports that the public will
be startled by the magnitude of the frauds com-
mitted by W. G. Pullinger, late chief cashier of the
Union Bank of London. These frauds have ex-
tended, it is said, over a series of years ; and the
success of the offender in so long evading detection
is stated to have been accomplished by an in-
genious system of false entries. by
speculations in the Stock Exchange, carried
on extensively for years past, have been
the gulf into which the proceeds have been
thrown. The shareholders, whose anxiety has
been greatly stimulated by the rumours afloat, have
learnt with satisfaction that the directors of the
Union Bank are now engaged in the preparation of
• statement in which the facts are duly set forth.
It will be issued immediately. Meanwhile, the
public will feel it fair to suspend their judgment.
The delinquent will be brought up again before the
Lord Mayor on Friday. The members of the
Stock Exchange appear to be keenly interested in
the inquiry, partly from a proper jealousy of the
reputation of their body. The Stook Exchange
committee, acting upon the high principles which
have uniformly guided them, and which have con-
tributed greatly to the confidence reposed in their
decisions by the public, are not likely to seek to
evade the duty which now seems to be imposed
upon them. That duty consists in an investiga-
_ tion into the agency whereby the enormous
_ speculations of the unhappy man whose name
is now before the world have been carried on, in
violation of the rule which prohibits brokers from
transacting business for account of clerks in public
companies and other establishments.
The Neapolitan government, which hitherto has
stood alone in refusing, has now consented to adopt
the arrangements agreed to at a meeting of the re-
presentatives of English and Continental Tele-
- graphs, which was held at Berne some time ago.
As one of these arrangements provides for an in-
demnity to persons whose messages may be need-
lessly delayed, it is hoped that the telegraphic ser-
vice between Malta and England, yid Naples, will
become more regular.
The Brighton Railway traffic return shows this
week a decrease of 598/., and the South Eastern an
increase of 4361.

The stock market continues to have an upward ten-
dency. Under the stimulus of the increased earnings in
March, and the prospects of an improving traffic daring
the summer, railroad securities have been active, and some
of the more depreciated have advanced materially. Erie

as on Saturday, viz., at 94/ to I for money,

and command only 6s. to 10e. prem.
In the foreign stock market the transactions were
upon a moderate scale. Turkish bonds were steady,
the Loan of 1854 clositt 76/ to 77 ex div., and I
that of 1858 at 614 to , after being marked 61.
Mexican bonds opened t, but afterwards became
rather firmer. The statement that the Miramon
government have issued a decree confiscating the
property of American citizens is important,
if true, for the active intervention of the United
States would be the immediate con sequence. Bra-
milieu scrip was marked par.
