MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 10,000
bales, at steady rates. Shares were quiet.
The meeting at the Rink of England, held this
morning, has gone off satisfactorily. The Rest
shows a considerable increase, say 250,8601., for the
year. It was proposed that the dividend be increased,
or that a bonus of 2 per cent. be declared immediately.
However, the court of proprietors considered it the
safest plan to adhere to the old dividend for the present.
Consols for Account have been firm, at 96 to 962; but
for Money the value is at ^95:43- 2 only. Exchequer-bills
are at 102. to 13s. premium.
Only a few bargains have been made in the Foreign
Funds to-day. Spanish are at 271 a ; the Three per
Cents. are at 381 -',l; Belgian at 974 ',I; and the Mexican
at 25+.
The Share Market still continues flat.
