MONEY and COMMERCIAL N

EWS

CITY, THURSDAY EVENING.
With but a limited amount of business doing, the
funds to• day have supported their value. The payment of
the dividends has not yet had time to act upon them. Consols
for immediate transfer, and without the dividend, were quoted
the same as in the course of the morning. The foreign bends
and railway shares generally went lower.
Great Western shares were marked '22, the New 10/, and
the Fifths at 6/, being for the first• mentioned a fall of D.
per share. London and Birmingham 70, the Thirds 22, the
York and North Midland 22 to '25, and the New 10 premium.
Brighten shares have been at 6i to 6, Northern and Eastern
at 9/, the North Midland New at 7%, the South Eastern and
Dover at 18, and the Birmingham and Derby at 40 discount.
In Joint Stock Banking Shares there has been no business for
some days past.
The I'ea market was animated in the quotations, Compa-
ny's Congou having advanced from 2s. 3d. to 2s. 34d. per lb.
cash. The sugar sales went off steadily.
(from The Snit of Last Night.)
LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JULY 7.—The demand for
Cotton to-day has been to a moderate extent. The sales con-
sisted of 3,300 bales, principally American, without any
change in prices. Both exporters and speculators have been
inactive. _ _ _

LIVERPOOL SHARE MARKET, JULY 6.—A moderate busi-
ness has been done to-day in the Share Market; the following
are the transactions :—Eastern Counties 8i ; Glasgow, Pais-
ley, and Greenock 27i ; Grand Junction, Half Shares, 101 ;
Ditto, Quarter Shares, 28; Liverpool and Manchester Quarter
Shares, 47; ; London and Bit mingham 161; Ditto, New
Shares, 2.5 i
MANCHESTER STOCK EXCHANGE, JULY 7.—Our Market
continues dull, and the unfavourable rumours circulatei yes-
terday have created a very gloomy feeling.—London and- Bir-
mingham (32) 53i 54; Quarter Shares, 22% 23; Manches-
ter and Birmingham 23 23k; Grand Junction (Old), 201
202 ; Bolton and Bury, 53 53i ; Eastern Counties, Bi.

Accounts from Carthagena, via Jamaica, are stated to be
highly favourable. The Government troops are stated to
have been within two days' march of Carthagena, and one of the
rebel chiefs has laid down his arms and joined the Government
standard. _ _ _

Accounts received at Barbadoes by the French barque
Perle, from Port-au-Piince (Hayti), state that island to be
in a very unsettled, state in regard to political affairs. Boyer
appears to bo tyrannising over the people at his own pleasure,
but he has a strong army, and immense wealth, he fears nothing,
and the country must submit to his will as long as he lives.
From the Barbadian.—The monopoly hitherto enjoyed by
America at St. Thomas, will soon cease; Venezuela
and New Granada having resolved to carry on
their commercial intercourse direct with Europe,
Porto Rico and Havannah, however, still wishing to continue
the trade with St. Thomas, in order, we suppose, to prevent
the direct entrance of foreign vessels from England, with
abolition principles, British Guiana and Trinidad are daily in-
creasing in prosperity on the ruin of other British West India
islands. Grenada which contained a population of 46,000 in-
habitants has been robbed of upwards t f 8,000 of its laboueers
within the last two years, who have all gone to Trinidad and
Demerara. Should this evil continue Granada must be depo-
pulated.
The 13atavier, Dutch steamer, has arrived, by which we have
received Papers to the 7th inst., bringing the Dutch prices
of the sth inst. Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 51 11-16 to a;
Five per Cents., 100 i; Ardoin's, 21.
The British funds continue to the present hour without any
business doing, and it is expected will remain in the same
state until after the elections have terminated. Consols opened
this morning at the same quotations they left off, 89Z if ex. -
dividend ; Three-per-Cents. Reduced, 89a a ; Three-and-a-
Half per Cents. Reduced, 98 99; New Three-per-Cents.,
9Si' a ex-div. ; Exchequer Bills, 13 15 premium ; Bank
Stock, 169 170 ; India Stock, 248 9 ; India Bonds, 3 5 prem.
The Foreign Market corresponds with that of the British,
and the prices remain nominal at present. Spanish Active,
216 A ; Deferred, 10i ; Passive, 44 5 ; Portuguese, 30a
31,-; ; Three per Cents., 18 19 ; Brazilian, 67i 6S ; Colom •
bian, 20i ; Mexican, 96i 3/4 ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per
Cents., SIA ; Five per Cents., 100% %.

10 9 dis. ; Birmingham, 69 70 prem. ; Southampton, 54i 55
per share ; Croydon, 13 14 per share ; Greenwich,
per share.
The British Market has rather a firmer appearance than it
had yesterday, although no extensive business has been done to
the present hour. Money continues at an easy rate, now the
dividends are being paid. In all probability, it will remain so
for some time. Consols have been done at 89* • at present
they are 896 for the Account; for Money, 89; ex-div. ;
Reduced, 896 a; Three-and-a- Half Reduced, 98% ; Ex-
chequer Bills, 15 13 prem. ; India Stock, 248 ; India Bonds,
3 5 prem. ; Bank Steck, 169 170.
The Foreign Market is also inactive, with very little doing.
Spanish Active, 21, have been 21b ; Portuguese, 30a 3%;
Mexican, 26; Colombian, 20; Dutch Two•and-a- Half per
Cents., nothing done ; Five per Cents. 1001.
I 'SHARES.—A little more business doing, but the market is
flat. Great Western, 87 ; Ditto New, 60i ; Ditto Fifths,
10; London and Brighton 44 ; Loudon and Birmingham, 160;
South Eastern and Dover, ; York and North Midland, 72.
Of the dividend recipients at the Bank to-day, it may be
justly said their name is legion.
We have no arrivals to-day with any late news of interest.
The only branch of trade that is brisk in the city now is ,that in
the important staple wool.
Consols, Money and Account, 896 ; Colombian, 2011 ;
Mexican, 26*; Spanish, 21i.
