BIRMINGHAM, AUG 6.
STOCK Ex CHANGE.—The fluctuations which have charac-
terized the railway share raarKets of London have produced a
sympathetic influence in Birmingham. In the morning
prices have had a te• dency upwards, in the evening they have
been followed by a decline. Such was the case yester ay.
In the early part of the day the share market was pro-
promising, but at night, after the arrival of the telegraphic
dispatch, affairs presented a rather
gloomy aspect. There
were no transactions reported on 'Change, and quotations
were regulated by last advices from the metropolis.
