Under the influence of a continuous demand for
Stock by the public, and growing confidence, the
London Stock Markets gain strength daily, and
Consols, which opened firm this morning at the
closing quotations, soon advanced, and continued to
improve until the final close, when they were quoted
at 93 to 931, for both Money and the Account, being an
advance of about a half per cent. upon Saturday's
closing prices. Other Public Securities finally closed
as follows : --Three per Cents.. 92, 921 ; Bank Stock,
220, 222 ; Exchequer Bills, Large and Small, 18,
22 pm.

The London Share Market has not only
steady, and prices firm, but there has been a tendency
to an improvement in quotations, and a fair amount
ofbusiness has been done, the market closing very firm

The Coin Markets continue to drop, and are fast
receding to the point at which they stooll before the
commencement of the war. At Mark-lane, to-day,
under the influence of large supplies, and only a
moderate demand, holders of wheat, in order to effect

We have private odvices from Alexandria
(Egypt), of the Bth of May, from which we quote
as follows :

.n intelligence has caused an advance in ti

values of all commestibili with a decline in Cotton, the recent
sales of which staple have been at prices $ll to $2 below
those obtainable on this day month. Cotton since the 9th
instant has been altogether neglected, the one or two
enquirers who are trying to complete orders and offering
$9 to $9.3,- find a great difficulty in persuading holders, many
of whom have withdrawn their stocks, and the largest
dealers are shipping freely to Liverpool; on the 10th, 830
canters of El-Hama Pasha sold at auction in 3 lots at $lO
to $lO-2-, equal to 6 13-16 d. to 61d per lb. fo. b. The
receipts from the interior continue regular, which must
keep up a good stock in the port, but a great proportion of
native dealers are now in a position to be able to wait for a
more favorable moment to realise, or can procure facilities
for shipment to the Liverpool market. Flax : The few
holders have reeentls, come to terms with buyers, by reduc-
ing their demands. Wheat : This morning the first arrival
of new Saidi (about 200 ards.), but of poor quality, being
dirty and much mixed with barley, sold at ps. 86. There
are about 20,000 to 25,000 ards. of old remaining in store
for which holders ask ps. 85 to 90, whilst buyers could b
found at ps.. 83 to 85 for good quality. The daily arrival
are generally very much weevelled, and scarcely supply th,
consumption. Beans : The new are
of about 500 ardebs
