A considerable amount of busiuom was tr.ins-
acted on the Liverpool Cup this morning. Palmer wis in

backed at 30 to I, and among the outsiders supported
were Tyndale and Minator Bell. Prices as follows:

Mr. Boydell opposed on behalf of Mr. Mouneey, a
Torlohire manufacturer who alleged that his debt
of 401. had been contractedi by fraud. The bask-
!up! was originally in custody under • capitol to
hold to bi and b•in, • foreigner, it was probable
that he would not remain 111 this country if released an-

NONE? MARIET.-MIIIB DAY.)

ONE &GLOM
As Canal on the last day of the week, the stock
markets are quieter to-day, and prices generally
exhibit no movement. The circumstance that the
Stock Exchange will bo closed on Monday also
tends to restrict fresh business. Nevertheless
the tone of the markets is firm, the dealings still
Amin" a Preponderance of purchases. Consols
and nearly all the railway securities are without
variation, and the only change in foreign bonds is
a slight advance in Brazilian of 1863 and the Ita-
lian Tobacco Loan.

The quotation for choice paper is 11 to 11 per
cent., and for advances in the Stock Reohangeo, 11.
Console are quoted at 941 to 1 for money and
the amount (November 6) ; and the Three per
Chinks. Reduced end Now Three pee Ciente., 92j
to 93.

The railway market is inactive, and, with the
exception of a rise of per cent. in Weiland, and
• reduction to the ble extent in Great Western,
the principal stooks are unaltered. London and
North Western, 111 f to 1121 ; Great Weaken, 481
to 1; Maned, 1.12 to 1; London end South
Western, 87/ to 884 ; Great &sateen, 421 to 4 ;

104 to 106 ; ditto A, 1041 to 1; Caledonian,
714 to 4, ea div. ; lanosehire and Yorkshire,
128} to 4 ; London, Chatham, and Dover, 17
to 1; and Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln-
shire, 471 to f.
The only alteration in foreign stocks is a rise of
to 1 per cent. in Brazilian of 186 a and the
Italian Tobacco Loan. Prices are quoted as fol-
lows :—Brazilian of 1865, 79 to 1; Chilian of 1867,
944 to 4; Egyptian of 1864, 811 to 821, ex div.;
ditto of 1868, 731 to ; Italian of 1861, 541 to
; ditto Tobacco Loan, 21 to 4 prem. ; Mexican,
18 to ; Peruvian of 1865, 821 to 83 ; Russian

341 to 1 ; Turkish of 1858, 68 to 1; ditto of
1862, 70 to 1 ; and ditto of 1863, 411 to 1.

The Ten-and-a-Half per Ceuta. are at 214 to 217 ;
the Five, 1141 to 115; the Four, 1021 to 1031; and
the Debentures, 1051 to 106. Bank Stock, 241
to 246; and Exchequer Bills, 17s. to 21s. prom.
Scarcely a bargain has been recorded in bank
shares, and prices present no movement. Anglo-
Austrian are at 61 to 7 prem. ' • Imperial Ottoman,
11 to 11 prem. ; Consolidated, 4 to 4 prem. ;
London and Westminster, 634 to 641; London
and County, 481 to 491; and Union of London,
331 to 341.

Miscellaneous shares are inactive, with few
dealings. Some of the present quotations are as
follows :—General Credit, 2} to 21 die.; Interna-
tional Financial, 14 to I die. ; Hudson's Bay,
141 to ; National Discount, 114 to 12 ; Tele-
grop n Construction, 154 to ; Atlantic Telegraph
Eight per Cent. Preference, 34 to 4 ; and Anglo-
American, 212 to 22.
There is a demand for United Status 3-20 Bonds,
which exhibits fresh rise of j per cent., the present
prim being 73j to I.

TWO O'CLOCK.
Consols are dull at 94 3-16ths to 7-16ths, both
for money and the account.
With the exception of Great Northern A, which
is 1 per cent. worse, at 104 to 1, railway stocks
are in demand, and have improved 1 to 1 per cent.
Caledonian is at 721 to 731, ex div. ; Great Western,
481 to 1; Great Eastern, 43 to 1; Brighton, 50 to 1 ;
London and North Western, 1111 to 1121; South
Eastern, 784 to 1; and Metropolitan, 106 to 4.
With respect to foreign bonds, Spanish of 1867
and Turkish of 186.5 are 1 to 1 per cent. lower, at
34 to and 411 to 1, respectively. Italian of
1861, 544 to 1; Egyptian of 1868, 73: to 4; and
Permian of 1865, 821 to 83.
A good deal of attention has been directed to
the announcement in the Madrid telegrams of

a decree from the Provisional Govern Meat for
opening a loan for an amount representing about
25,000,0001. stealing in Six per Cent. Bonds, at 80
per cent. It appears that the subscription is to
take place from the 11th till the 25th November,
"at Madrid and throughout Spain, at Paris,
London, and in the colonies." Thus far, how-
ever, no announcement has been put forth by

any London house, and the impression seems to
be that the loan will be almost exclusively
subscribed for in Spain. Such an arrangement
would be regarded with satisfaction here, as tend-
ing to tempt forth from ita hiding places capital
which was buried under the old regime, while, at
the same time, it is desirable that the Spaniards,
instead of relying upon foreign capital, should
have an interest in supporting law and order.

The sum of 81,000/. in bar gold was taken from
the Bank yesterda for the Continent. The 188,5001.
by the Some • , from Melbourne, came to
hand yesterday morning, and was also purchased
for the same quarter.

The Oneida, from Brazil for Southampton, has
reached Lisbon, with 102,8301. in specie. This
sum shows a considerable increase over recent

The steamer Ceylon will take to-day 193,549/. in
specie, of which 86,2451. is for India, 33,041/. for
China and the Straits, 50,263/. for Ceylon, and
6,000/. for Alexandria ; 117,4281. is gold, and
78,1211. silver.
There was no alteration yesterday in the silver
market, but, with any increased demand for the
East, quotations would probably advance to a
point at which both bars and Mexican dollars
would be imported from the Continent.
At Paris the rata of discount in the open market
is still only If per cent ; at Frankfort and Brussels,
2 ; at Amsterdam, 21 ; at Hamburg and Berlin, 3 ;
at Vienna, 4; at Turin, 4}; and at St. Petersburg,
per cent.

The Antw and Rotterdam Railway Company
have intimated that, in aooordanoe with the ar-
rangements already made, due notice will be given
for calling in the old shares, and issuing new cer-
tificates with coupons attached for half-yearly
payments.
We are requested to state that the general ma-
nager of the Australasian Extract of Meat and
