don in the chair—an ad interim dividend of £1 15s.

Dulness is still the principal feature of the mar-
ket for the English Funds, foreign stocks and new
schemes engaging almost the exclusive attention of
the investing classes. After the official hours of
business yesterday Consols receded I—viz., to 921
931 for money, and to 93 for account. The
present quotations, however, show a recovery to
93 a for money, and to 931 I for the account. The
New Threes and Reduced are 91-1, I; Exchequer
Bills are ls. die. to 2s. prem.; India 5 per Cents.,
1091 ; and Enfaced ditto, 107/.

Increased buoyancy prevails in the Foreign
Market, and business is rather active. Turkish

Business in the Discount Market has been some.

what impeded by the uncertainty felt regarding
the policy the Bank of England directors may
pursue at their meeting to-day. The general im-
pression seems to be that no immediate change
will be made, in the meanwhile a certain degree of
reserve is manifested, and the rates are almost
nominal.

A further sum of £48,000 in gold was taken into
the Bank yesterday.
The biddings for £300,000 in bills on India took
place yesterday at the Banu of England. The pro-
portions allotted were—to Calcutta £160,000, to
Bombay £120,000, and to Madras £20,000. The
minimum price declared was, as before, ls.
per rupee on Calcutta and Madras, and ls. lltd. oy
Bombay. The applications within the

][nits

amounted to £3,170,000. Tenders on Calcutta, at
111 d., will receive about 30 per cent.; on Bom-
bay, at 25., about 6 per cent.; on Madras, at
lltd., about 93 per cent.; and all above these
prices in full.

The last week's railway receipts ascertained up
to this day are in round figures as under :
