AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELV O'CLO C K.
The Money Market continues active,E and the rates
are well supported at 6i and 7 per cent. for the
best short dated paper. The supply of capital on
offer is large, and notwithstanding the caution
manifested by the brokers in negotiating business,
bills are very scarce.
The last series of public sales of Colonial Wool
for the present year have been fixed to commence
on the 16th prox. The quantity already arrived
comprise 11,766 bales from Sydney, 2,552 from
Victoria, 148 from Tasmania, 1,053 from Adelaide,
2,067 from New Zealand,
and 30,790 from the Cape
of Good Hope, the total being 48,876 bales.
During the last four days there has not been
Much animation in the markets for foreign and
colonial produce. Sugars have been in moderate
request, at about previous rates, while a fair busi-
ness has been done in tea. Coffee has remained
inactive, while the high rates still current for rice
has checked operations. Tallow has been dull,
and quotations for both present and forward de-
livery have slightly given way.
At the third annual general meeting of the Upper
Assam Tea Company, held to-day, Lieut.-Col. J.
iphant in the chair, it was stated that the amount
left for distribution was £10,350, and the directors
were therefore enabled to declare a dividend of 10
per cent. per annum free of income-tax ; 6 per cent.
having been already paid, the balance of 4 per cent.
Will be due on and after the 10th November. This
distribution makes, with the bonus paid on the Ist
September, 18 per cen.;. divided among the share-
holders during the past year.
