MINES-THIS DAY.

Two o'CLocx.
Business for home mining stocks to-day is so
completely stagnant, that we have really no
report to make. The inquiries are very limited,
and in many cases it would be difficult to make pro-
gress with sales. From the Stock Exchange no
transactions are reported.
Cobra Copper shares have been dealt in at 39 to
40. English and Australian Copper are marked
and lfr.
Annexed is the officinl list of prices in the
Mining Exchange yesterday :
East Gunnislaks and South Bedford, 2f ; East Roes-
-195., 21a. ; Kelly Bray, 304,
ro
31a. 3d., 32a. 9d., 3Sa.
Ledy Bertha, 1114.6 d., 19s. 31, 20s. ; Providence Minos,
74. 77 ; Sortridge Coneole, 2 ; West Grenville, 64., 7s. ;
Wheal Grenville, II ; Wheal Margaret, 6.5, 66*, 60, 69.
Subjoined is our usual weekly report of tho metal
market. One of the chief features of the week is a
further considerable fall in tin :

--------- -
Metals have fallen into the general stagnation consequent
upon the present crisis, and basins= has been of the most
limited extent. Copper keeps its price, and all the makers
have as yet a fair supply of orders to work upon; such being
the mss, any reduction in prices would be merely en opening
for speculators, so merchants' orders are not to be stimulated
by anything at this moment. Iron and lead are dull of sale,
with prloes in favour of buyers. Sp otter has been depressed
by a forced sate or two at low rates, but most holders are
rather SM. Tin has experienced a further decline in English
M6l. per ton, but neither English nor foreign find■ buyers.
Tin plates are offered freely at low rates without inducing
operations.

FRIDAY
The market for home mining stocks participates
in the depression occasioned by the dearness of
money. Very little business was done to-day,
owing partly to preparations for the fortnightly
settlement. In numerous cases pries were quoted
lower, including shares in Alfred Consols, North
Basset, West Bisset, West Caradon, Wheal Edward,
and Wheal Kitty (Lelant). The following may be
given as some of the closing quotations, viz. :
Wheal Mary Ann, 48 to 50 ; Wheal Trelawney, 28
to 24 ' • West Grenville, Os. to Bs. ; Wheal Margaret,
55 to 57 ; and East Rosewarne, 20s. to 225. ed.
