MS HAGUB, Nov. 22.—The aspect of the Bourse
in Spanish Funds was more favourable yesterday.
The shares of the commercial Company rose 1 per
cent. A good deal of business was likewise done
the Spanish Funds, ut a higher rate. Portuguese
were also in demand.

Nov. 23.—Yesterday the Amsterdam Funds were
again up, but those of the Commercial Company had
a downward tendency. Spanish Funds were also so
much in demand, Coupons improving. Portuguese
are evidently rising. In the other foreign funds
there is no sensible change.
By a royal resolution of the Ist of this month the

NETHERLANDS COLONIES.--BATAYIA, SEPT. 29.
The Governor. Generat has returned from his tour,
and has issued a public document relative to the
investigation of cases in the courts of justice in Java,
which have especial reference. to the evidence of
Europeans. ,
A fire broke out in Augustus on the night of the
26th August, w— ht
cb laid waste an extent of 650 feet
in length and 100 feet in breadth. On the 28th
there was a fire at Dornay, in Semarang-, which
caused great destruction of property, to the value of
above 40,0001. Several shipwrecks also have taken
place along the coast.
SAMAIANG, SEPT. 29 —Money continues scarce,
and we may judge from appearances Java is not in
the best of circumstances. Want of rice, scarcity
of money, low prices of coffee, indigo, and sugar,
the foreign possessions of Java continue to go on
well, but the coasts are inundated with pirates, who
often cause great destruction. The Governor-Gene-
ral has returned, but his health was in Et very unsa-
tisfactory state —Dutch Papers.
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.—BERLIN, Nov. 20.
The state of money at our Bourse continues very
satisfactory, and discount at sight is 4 per cent., at
prolongation, 5 per cent. Our railway shares improve
and are in demand.

Although the supply at market of various sorts of
corn was but very moderate there was not much in-
clination to buy, less so ixdeed than hitherto. This
was owing in a great measure to the determination
of the bakers, who have resolved not to purchase till
there is a sensible reduction in the prices ; white
wheat was sold at 84 to 94f. ; rye, 56 to 67f.; barley,
.51 to 60f. ; oats, 30 to 32f.--this article went rapidly,
was small.
though the supply Spirits are scarcely in
demand, and the price is falling considerably.
liastuueGit, Nov. 19.—As the season is now so
far advanced that our autumnal business has almost
ceased, and there are but few holders in the market
for spring deliveries, there has been of late a groat
stagnation in our corn market. We have had a few
small orders for delivery from England.
VIENNA, Nov. 18.—The aspect of our money
market has improved, but everywhere there is a ma-
n Fest lack of the spirit for speculation. Advices
from abroad
have a very marked influence. Me-
tames and Northern Railway shares had a
decidedly favourable upward tendency at
the 13ourse yesterday, and it- was affirmed that
the disturbances in Switzerland would be quelled by
the intervention of the foreign Powers. We cannot
report much more favourably respecting the state of
our corn market than hitherto, and no essential
change was made on the 16th in the tax on bread.

29th October, and maintains that neutrality through-
out the period of the armistice of the civil war.—
