Messrs. Kershaw and Jardine state :

The extreme dullness which prevailed in our market at
the close of lsst week has continued throughout the present,
and the daily transactions have been very limited. The
unfavourable news, per Carada, and a furtter advance in
the rate of interest to 8 per cent. at the Bank of England
on Monday last, produced a feeling of depress on and some
little irregularity in prices, and we must quote American
descrip ions id per lb. lower all round. Surats and Brazil
are also id to id lower. Fgtptians and Sea Islands are
unchanged, but neglected. On the whole there has been
no desire to press salts, and the very light stocks have
enabled holders to be comparatively firm.
There was but little business done in the Liver-
pool Share Market dining the earlier hours of the
day ; in the afternoon, more firmness was shown.

The Funds to-day have been rather flitter. The
late advance has led to some sales, and Money is
more in demand. On the London S'ock Exchange
this • morning, a decline of k to per cent. was
shown. An attempt was made to repress prfces
still further. bu.t w.s not successful Messrs.
Browne, Hunter, and Co.'s circular, published
to-day, after enumerating the recent advances
made in the Bank rate rf interest, retiarks:-
"Such rapid advances in the value of Money cannot
fail to increase the distrust and uneasiness
that have already arisen ; but whilst the pressure
does not emana'e from any local causes, although
it *may inflict a serious injury upon a portion of
the.. trading community, by liiniting credit and
*rendering it difficult to .riegoitia:e ;piper, there is
nothing to justify the, .alartn which appears to
exist."
Consols to-day declined, and el -Fted at the fob-
-I,,wing prices :-For Money, 881 to 889 ; and for
the Account ' 881 to 89. After official hours there
w s however, a better feeling, and .the p; ice of the
latter was nominally quoted at 88 1516 t 0,89 1-16
The London Railway Share Market was rather
dull to-day., and pliees were barely suppotted.
