To the present hour we still continue in the same dull
state as in the early part of the morning, without any
further arrivals or news to communicate.
The business at the Colonial market this morning is
heavy, particularly in Cotton.
We hear that the Government broker has bcen selling
in the course of the morning in the various British Funds,
but not to any great extent, which caused Consols to re
cede from 93i to 93a for Money, at which price they are
at present ; for the Account, they receded from 931 to 934-;
Exchequer Bills also receded, 34 32 ; India Bonds, 36 ;
Bank Stock, 1951-; India Stock, 2561 257/,
In the Foreign Market very little has been doing.

Wheat and Rye last week did not experience any material
alteration, so that the prohibition to export them, and their
importation, duty free, continued. His Highness, Prince

the Princess, his daughter, coming from Cologne, arrived
at the Palace of Laeken.
