In the mining market to-day business generally

inquiries for Copper Hill, Cern Brea, and Tol-

holders having the option of taking such shares for
the space of one month from this date, agreeably to
rule 8. Two shillings and sixpence to be paid on

Ist October next."

The subjoined weekly summary of the metal market
is extracted from the circular of Messrs. you Dadele-

en and North :

There has been a steady demand for all kinds of metals
mime our last report, and there is every appearance of im-
provement both in the amount of bushing and the prices
obtained. Welsh bars continue in good demand, and makers
have advanced their price to 5/.55. free on board in Wales,
with propmtiosate price for delivery in London and Liver-
pooL The Staffordshire reports are also a little more cheer.

Tin plates. Charcoal continue neglected, but foe coke there
has been more demand at the present low prices. Lead is

The demand for money yesterday was brisker,
both at the Bank and in Lombard-street, many per-
sons having apparently held back until the rate was

by the preparations for the bills maturing on tbs
4th (Sunday), which will be met to-day. Choice
bills were discounted yesterday at 41 per cent., or
below the Bank rate.

not prejudiced the exchanges between this country

Tai Oconvier Hfixon.—No authority has been
received as yet to stay the execution of Hilton, convicted
on his awn confession of the murder of his wife, nor is it
at all likely that there will be. Since the tint moment of
his sentence, up to het eight, Hilton has evinced the most
wonderful composure. He bee expressed no fear of death ;
but, on the contrary, expresses his willingoess to die, that
(to use his own words) be may join his wife. His appetite
is good ; be sleeps profoundly ; be apposes to enjoy peso.
of mind. lie now and then alludse m ceuvereation to his
approaching death, by saying, " My tine is getting short ;
it is fast coming." The chaplain of Use pod, the Rev. Mr.
Vent is, visits the culprit daily sad be appeals to littaa
with earnehtneas to his ex to penitence and
prayer. Should no reprieve jarrive, of which we see'no
probability, Hilton will be executed in the front of the
county gaol, facing the Castle Hill, at 12 o'clock next Sa-
turdei.—Caustridge led/mutest Press.
