firmness, and up to a late hour Consols were

place. Business, however, was extremely limi-
ted. Great Northern, Great Western, London
and North Western, and South Easterns have
improved respectively ss. per share.

The following appeared in a portion of sur
impression of Saturday :

COMMERCIAL

It is officially announced that the Union Bank of
Australia will declare a dividend of £2 per share, being
at the rate of 16 per cent. per annum.

The contract which has been concluded between the
Portuguese Government and an English- Company, for
the cession of the Southern Railway, has been published
in the official newspaper. This contract is yet subject
to the approval of the Cortes.
- -

No appreciable effect has yet been produced on the
iron market by the current report that.the duty on that
material, as well as on coal, is about to be reduced by
the French Government, in consideration of a reduction
in. England of the duty on French wines.—Times.

In the case of Demetrio, the Greek merchant, the
statements of the bankrupt were so unsatisfactory, that
the court ordered an adjournment, and gave judgment
on the certificates of Prior and Prior, the late coal mer-
chants, suspending the certificates for twelve months,
and refusing protection for three months.—Times.
In the colonial produce markets, during the week,
there has been a fair amount of business. Orders from
the Continent are increasing, and the uncertainty at-
tending political prospects alone prevents large specula-
tive operations. The tea market continues very firm,
and there has been a steady business by private con-
tract.—Tinges.

A meeting of the East and West India Dock Com-
pany was held yesterday, when the report, recommend-
ing a dividend for the past hEdgyear at the rate of 6 per
cent. per annum, free of income-tax, was unanimously
adopted. The business during that period shows an
increase, compared with the previous, of 31,263 tons
in the ships from foreign and colonial ports.
