COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The money market remains unchanged notwith-
standing the payment of the dividends which it
was thought might have augmented the available
supplies, and created greater easiness in the rates,
if even it did not moderate the general enquiry for
accommodation.

The last week's railway receipts ascertained up
to this day are in round figures as under :-
1863. 1862.
Great Western £64,385 £65,542

These returns generally show a falling off com-
pared with those of the same period of last year ;
but it must be taken into account that the Inter-
national Exhibition caused a large increase in the
passenger traffic. On the Great Western there is
a felling off of £1,157 ; on the South Western of
£5,388; on the Brighton of £1,869; on
the South Eastern of £1,097; on the Great

while the Midland show an increase of £2,005; the
Lancashire and Yorkshire of £3,438; the North

A special meeting of the shareholders of the Ner-
budda Coal and Iron Company took place to-day,
for the purpose of affording Mr. J. H. Blackwell,
the company's agent is India, an opportunity of
describing the position of the estates in India. The
property is situated in Central India, about 530
miles from Bombay, 800 from Calcutta, and 12 miles
from the Grett Indian Peninsular Railway.
The directors of the D atch Rhenish Railway
Company have issued their report this morning in
anticipation of the ensuing annual meeting. The
directors call the attention of the shareholders
to the results of the working of the rail-
way during the year 1863 in comparison
with those of the six preceding years. The re-
ceipts of the past 12 months amounted to £218,607,
being £13,195 more than those for the previous
year. The working expenses represented £85,443,
being £6,494 more than in previous year. The in-
creased expenditure has been incurred in the main-
tenance of the way and works, in the purchase of
timber and rails, in extensive repairs to bridges, &c.
