The quarterly Revenue Accounts are looked upon as
satisfactory, and there is a strong hope that we shall
have a much more decided increase in ensuing quarters.
The official statement of imports and exports, for the
month ending the sth December, contrasts favourably
with the return of previous months. Still, upon the
year, there is a decrease of over five millions in our
exports. If we must admit the fact in evidence as show-
ing reduction in our trade, we may concurrently draw
the reasonable conclusion that there will be a better
opening this year in foreigu markets, which cannot be
glutted.
The accounts received from Belgium and Germany
this morning state that trade was improving.
Transfers have been made to-day in Consols, and
without affecting to any extent the previous values. The
present quotations are 881 to 89 for Money, and after
being 891, they are now 881 1 for Account.
The intelligence by the French mail is not altogether
satisfactory, and it is feared that an early dissolution of
the Ministry must occur. The New Three-and•a-
Quarter per Cents. have been 891 1, and since 89i .1.
Bank Stock is worth 1901. Exchequer-bills have rea-
lise 435. to 455. prem. for those of June.
The Foreign Securities have been very quiet. Spa-
nish Five per Cents. have been quoted 14 to *; Portu-
guese Four per Cents. are about 251 to 261; and Brazi-
lian, small, 761; Mexican Bonds have been 25* to 251;
Dutch Two and-a-Half per Cents are 481 to 49.
Railway Shares have been without particular change.
Caledonian, Great Northern, Brighton, and Midland are
rather firm; and tho York lines have risen. French
Shares are flat, and also Eastern Counties and one or
two others.
