The payment of the dividends commenced yentas-
day at the Bank of England. In Lombard-strad
the rates for good bills were 5,1 to 6 per cent. At
the Bank of England, where advances to soma
amount were repaid yesterday, there was a fair
demand.

4,000/. in gold was sent into the Bank yesterday,
and 40,000 sovereigns were withdrawn for trans-
mission to Canada. The specie reserves in that
province appear to be pressed upon from the United
States, and must be maintained by remittances
from this conntry. The Athenian. from the West
Coast of Africa, has brought about 15,0001.
The next outward Bombay steamer will tabs
about 70,0001. in silver on government account.
This will absorb the residue of the silver bullion it

government remittances will then cease.

England occurred in the rates for drafts on Paris.

Consols, which closed yesterday at 89} to 9-11,
ex div., for money and to-morrow's settlement,
were first marked this morning 89/, and closed at
891 to 1. For the 7th of August the last pries
was 90 to it. The " continuation " was Ito 7-16
per cent. in the morning, but declined to 5-16 to t
in the afternoon. The official business report is as
follows :—Three per Cent. emboli', for moo/
f, 1, ex div. ; ditto for account (July 1
891, ex (hr. ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 881,
89 ; New Three per Cents., 881, 89, 881, 1, 89 ;

Cent. " eufaced" rupee paper, 1001, 101.
The India Five per Cent. stuck was firm at
98/ to I, ex div., for money. The March Exche-
quer Bills were rather firmer, at 10s. to ss.
and the June, at 4s. die. to par, owing to the in,-
creased supply of money iu the Stock Exchange.
In the foreign stock market the principal transla-
tions were again in the Turkish Loan of 1858,whisk
experienced several variations, being dealt in from
621 to 61g. The closing quotation was 613 to It;
being per cent. lower than yesterday. The Loan
of 1864 was also rather flatter, leaving off 76* Ha
I. Mexican Bonds have scarcely improved, being
quoted 22/ to 1. Buenos Ayres Six per Cents. were
marked for money 91 and 86. The latter "mark,*
however, is objected to, and the circumstance et
its being recorded in the official list is calculated to
mislead. The real quotation throughout the day
appears to have been 89 to 91.
Bank shares to-day were steady, with the ex-
ception of a slight decline in Union Bank of London.
Oriental and Ottoman Bank continue to meet with
inquiry. Red Sea Telegraph were quoted rather
better. Great Ship were quoted 6s. 3d. to 6s. 9d.
