CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK,

The subscription list of the Warrant Banking
Company will close on Monday next.
The Frontino and Bolivia South American Gold
Mining Company's prospectus has been issued,
with a proposed capital V. 00,000, in 50,000 shares
of £2 each. avoeit as., and ss. on the allotment.
From a careful calculation the directors estimate
that it will not be necessary to call up more than
203. par share. This company has been formed for
the purchase and working of those celebrated mines
which are situate in the Province of Antioquia, New
Grenada. The "Frontino" is said on reliable
authority to contain several lodes of ore, only one
of which has hitherto been worked. This
property also includes a large extent of pasture.
land, with the necessary buildings, cattle, 8.7 c.,
requisite for active operation, in addition to an in-
exhaustible supply of iron pyrites rich in gold.
Samples assayed by Messrs. Johnson and Co. are said
to yield (No. 1), to the ton of ore, 463 oz. 16 dwts.
22 grs. of gold. The estates are freehold, and com-
prise nearly 5,000 acres abounding in timber. Ope•
rations can be commenced immediately on the com-
pletion of the purchase. The directora call parti-
cular attention to the satisfactory reports which
have been furnished by Capt. Wm. Goyen, whose
services to the St. John del Rey Company were
so eminently successful, and so often born testi-
mony to by the directors of that company. The
management of the Frontino and Bolivia mines
has been entrusted to Captain Goyen, and the di-
rectors have every confidence in a satisfactory
commercial result from the operations of their
company, and they announce that the preliminary
changes,will be made previous to allotment.

The general condition of the market for the
English Funds is favourable so far as regards the
steadiness of prices, but there is very little business,
and a degree of dulness is consequently apparent.
The recent arrivals of gold and silver, the moderate
export demand for both metals, the abundance of
money, and the expectation of lower rates of dis- _
count, have all assisted in imparting firmness to
values, and additional relief has been afforded by
the general character of the advices from the Con- si
tinent, which have induced a more hopeful feeling.
Consols are 911 for money, and 911 for the account.
