£411,371 in silver, for Bombay.
The Armenian, from the coast of Africa, has
brought £4,375.

been sold for China at ss. 2d. per ounce—showing

upwards of £6OO on the Stock Exchange for the
National Lifeboat Institution. The lifeboats rescued,
daring the storms of last year, 417 shipwresked
persons on our coasts.

Two O'CLOCK.

At the Paris Bourse to-day (according to Mr.
Reuter's telegram). the 3 per Cent. Rentes were
66f. 70c.—Heavy.

The market for the English Funds became ex-
ceedingly depressed late yesterday afternoon when
it was known that so large a quantity of gold had
been taken from the Bank of England to send
abroad. This morning a little better feeling pre-
vailed, and Consols were WI / for transfer,
and 91 / for the account, bat this tendency to
renewed firmness was not prolonged. Sales being
subsequently negotiated 'sent the quotations down
respectively to 901 I 90/ 91. There is manifestly
a very unfavourable impression regarding the effect
that may be produced by the demand for gold on
continental accoont, and for silver to send to the
East. The probability is recognised of such a
movement as will reproduce unsatisfactory results,
which were productive of so much stringency two
or three months ago. The New Threes and Reduced
Annuities are 901 j ; Exchequer Bills, par to 4
prem. ; India 5 per Cents., 1061 ; and do. Bonds,
4s. prem.

General depression has prevailed in the Foreign
Market, and business is rather quiet. Turkish 6
per Cents., 1862, are 67 1; do. Consolides, 4611;
Greek, 231 f ; Spanish Passive, 33; & ; do. Certifi-
cates, 13k ; Mexican, 35k ; Portuguese, 4711;
and the Confederate Loan, 38 40.
In the Railway Share Market there has been
very little animation, and prices generally have
exhibited a further downward movement. Great
Northern receded £1 10s. ; Metropolitan, £1; North
Western, 10s; and Great Eastern, Midland, and
South Eastern, ss. North Eastern (Berwick) have
improved 10s.

The Foreign and Colonial undertakings exhibit
ttle change of importance.

Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have remained
inactive. Imperial Ottoman realise 174; London
and Brazilian 56i ; Oriental Bank 64 ; Hudson's
Bay Company have declined to 16k; National
Shipping Company are quoted 1 die. ; Australian
Shipping Company lt 14 prem.; Mauritius Credit
2- prem. ; and Anglo-Italian Bank lf, 11 prem.

STATE OF PAIIPERISM.—The monthly return of
the Poor Law Board shows that the number of persons in
receipt of parish relief in England and Wales at the end of
November was 13.15 per cent, less than at the same period
of 1862. In the North-Western division the decrease was
45.65 per cent.—from 296,996 to 161,431; but in November,
1860, the number was only 75,788.
TRADE OF THE PORT OF LIVERPOOL.—A return
made by the collector of Customs at Liverpool shows that the
total value of the goods exported in 1863 was £65,178,451,
against £50,463,469 in 1862, being an increase of
£14,714,982. The number of ships despatched during last
year was 4,460, against 4,246 in the previous year, thus
showing an increase of 214 in the number of ships as com-
pared with the year preceding,
