In the Colonial Produce Markets this week there
has again been a want of activity, although the
transactions have been of fair extent, without ma-
terial alteration in quotations. Rather more inquiry
has prevailed for sugar, and for West India de-
scriptions firm rates have been paid, while grccery
qualities at auction went steadily. Several floating
cargoes have changed hands for the United King-
dom. The sales of coffee have gone off at fully the
previous value for coloury kinds of Ceylon and East
India, but some of the fine marks of Mysore have
scarcely maintained former pi ices.

mission appointed for its control, amounted on the
30th of June last. to 411,622,347 florins. It is also
stated that the floating debt is never to exceed
412,000,000 florins. The preliminaries for the ex-
tensive network of railways in Turkey have now
been taken in hand. A corps of engineers have
already proceeded to Constantinople, whence, in ten
divisions, they will complete their inspection of the
proposed route (about 1,200 miles in length). Ne-
gotiations are still pending with the Turkish Go-
vernment relative to the connecting point of their
lines with the Southern Railway, via Bosnia ; but
the States Railway Company are using all their in-
fluence, supported by the Hungarian Government,
to carry out the connection of the Turkish lines
with the Servian and Wallachian lines, which, if
successful, may eventually become the overland
route to India.

A prospectus has been issued of the Imperial
