COMPANY:

The tenor of the private letters received this
morning from Vienna, Paris, and other cities
abroad, are very reassuring ; and it is considered
that Russia, having communicated to Austria the
terms which it was disposed to accept, the latter
has engaged the other Powers to acquiesce. Con-
stantinople dates of the 9th inst. also affirm that
there were stronger hopes of peace. Con-
sols have been 974 to 98 for Transfer, and 98 to
for account. The " options " come off a little be-
fore 3 o'clock this afternoon, and it will then be
seen whether stock is " put" upon the market or
" called." The New 31 per Cents. have been at
100 i to 10011, and the 3 per Cents. at 981 to f.
East India Stock has been quiet at 258. There
have been no transactions in Bank Stock. Ex-
chequer Bills have been heavy at 2s. discount to
is. premium, money being in demand. East India
Bonds have been quoted 21s. to 265. premium.
In Foreign Securities very little has been pass-
ing. Spanish New Deferred Stock has realised
22k, and the Committee's Certificate has been at
01,being rather fuller rates. Portuguese 4 per
Cents, have been 41 to 41i. Brazilian New 5 per
?etas. have been quoted 101. Russian 5 per Cents.
Keep very firm at 117, and the 4j- per Cents. at
100 i. Mexican Stock is at 261 I, and dull.
The Railway Share Market has been very inac-
t,ive, and prices are generally the same as on Sattlr-
g, ay for the English lines. French Shares are
brisker.

The Shares of the Joint-stock Banks have been
at about previous rates.
Gold Mines are heavy, and Land Shares ne-
glected.
