MINING INTELLIGENCE.

(From the Mining Journal.)
There is so dimiothion of busiuess ia our market in
dividend mines, which have generally advanced in value,
11:.d are more sought for as permanent investments than
a-, any previous period. We may trace this effect from
the combined causes of the abundance of capital, and the
business becoming better understood by capitalist°, as
well as being more respectably conducted under the sa-
lutary influence of a tolerably open market. Still fur-
ther quantities of speculative shares are brought forward
fir sale, and larger reductions in value submitted to, and
we look for a continuance of the same state of things,
until timid holders shall have disposed of their stock,
when it is possible many of the shares now realizing 1,6
such low rates-will advance to an approximation of their
it.trinaic value. The exceptions u, ti
general improve-
went in dividend shares are, East Pout, United Mines,
Brewer, Comford, Condurrow, and Wheal Ri'eth.
In the Metal Ma, ket, Copper maintains its price; the
demand for it is rather increasing. The present rate
for British Tin is fully supported, and likely to condors.
so, although a large business has not been done t
week. Bence is iu greater request for exportation. For,
'Tin-plates there is a considerable demand, and a /NO:
reduction in price has been submitted to. For Lead
there are morn inquiries, with a larger business than of
late.
