shareholders of the Great Northern Railway, by
the recent decline in this company's receipts.
During the last three weeks, the aggregate falling
off has been 6,1541. compared with last year ; and
thus the increase on the six months, over the cor-
responding period of 1855, is reduced to 8,870/.
Relative to the London Market for American Se-
curities. Messrs D. Bell, Son and Co. report as
follows :-
There has been a good demand for American securities
generally during the past week, with more inquiry for rail-
road bonds, particularly those of the Illinois Central Com.
patty, in which business has been done at improved prices.
The report of Me. E. F Satterthwaite says :-
There There his been a firm market for American securities in
London during the past week. Holders are disposed to
wait for higher prices, and the supply of first-class bonds is
by no means large. We quote Illinois Central and Erie
Bands higher. Ober descriptions there is no materialchange
Our advices from Manchester inform us that
the market for goods and yarns not only main
teens the late improvement, but a complete clear
anee of stocks enables producers to demand and
obtain a further advance for such qualities as are
more especially eeited for the East, and which
favourably influences other descriptions, both in
value and demand.
Our local Produce Markets have been pr( try
steady daring the week. An animated demand
has existed for sugar, and prices are 61 to is per
cwt. higher within the week. In molasses but
little has been done, owing to stocks in first
hands being exhausted. Coffee is firm, at last
week's prices. There was a good demand
for rice and rum, and prices of the
latter have advanced. Speculation continues
in the Tea trade ; a large quantity has changed
hands durine the week, and prices are ed to Id per
lb. dearer. Dyewoods have remained quiet, and a
()id moderate business has been done in Naval Stores.

At. -
a

week :
At the time of closing our last circular advices of the sth
instant, pr America—since put back, damaged by stress of
weather, but replaced by the Canada, which sailed this
morning—our Cotton Markot wore a firm aspect, with an
advancing tendency in prices of American description. On
the following day, and up to Wednesday of the present
week, the transactions were of a more limited character.
Tee market, however, lost nothing of the inaprcrei tone, and
a good report from Manchester cAlsed a revival of the
inquiry, resulting in outside rates being demanded by
holders, the trade purchasing with confidence, and specu-
lators and exporters participating freely in the daily opera-
tions in Brazils and Surat s, of which the stock on hand bears
ro proportion to the figures of last year's hold ngs.
The American advices received per Europa failed to have
any ieflaence, the hope being entertained that the accumu-
lating receipts at the principal seaports would shortly be
more freely shipped off, and furnish us with a bitter selection
and supply. Unless this should early be manifested, a corres.
pending effect must ensue, particularly as the more promising
attitude of mire), matters imparts greeter encouragement
to trade prospects, and which is likely to be more clearly
developed after the turn of the year. The total' salcs of the
week amount to 53,310 bales, of which 34,530 are Arne_
rican. Speculators have taken 8,570, and exporters 5,530,
leaving 39,710 bales of all kinds to the trade. '1 he import
for same time is 35,720 bales, of which 19,963 are American.
The quantity known to be at sea from American ports is
abeut 64,000 bales

morning, owing to the delay in the arrivals of the
French mails. Recent accounts from Paris notice
rather a more active demand for money, and judg-
ing from the Bank of France returns, issued to-day,
there appears to have been very little abatement in
the inquiry during the past month, notwithstand-
the -increased rate which is reported to have pre-
vailed. This return, however is considered
favourable, inasmuch as it shows a large incrAise
in the bullion, and a decline in the advances on
rentes and railway securities ;
