At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to
Reuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes opened
at 69f.95c.

It is satisfactory to be able to record a conside-
rable improvement in all Governmental Stocks,
others following iu their wake. This is to be attri-
buted to the increasing confidence felt in the pre-
Sent Administration, and the steady purchases made
by investors, among whom the Government broker
bits not been the least conspicuous ; his operations
may have given some tone to the market, but it is
to the buying of the i.ublic at large to which the
Improvement must be ascribed. Consols closed yes-
terday at a rise of it ; to-day per cent. has been
added to that advance, the latest prices being 91f
for money, and 91/ for the 7th proximo. The
New Threes are 88i 891 ; Reduced Annuities 89f ;
Exchequer Bills for March, 13s. to 14s. prem., and
for June 17s. prem. ; India Stock, 215 f ; ditto 5 per
Cents., 108 k ; ditto 4 per Cents., 92 ; ditto En-
faced 5 per Cents., 1021 ; and ditto 5f per Cents.,
108.

In the Foreign Stock Market almost every de-
scription of security has advanced. Mexican is f
higher, at 18 1 ; Italian f, at 539 549 ; Greek,
at 159 16 ; Spanish Passive, f, at 218 229 ; the
Certificates, f, at 141 ; Turkish 5 per Cents.
at 30 ; Russian Scrip, if, at 21 f prem. ; Chilian

have advanced 11, to 394 401 ; Illinois 1, to 77-i
78f ; and United States 5-20 Bonds it, to 749 j.
A fair amount of business has been transacted in
the Railway Share Market and a farther slight im-

Western, and Metropolitan have each advanced k ;
Great Eastern 9 ; South-Eastern ; and Manches-
ter, Sheffield, and Lincoln 1.
The Foreign and Cdonial undertakings exhibit
little change of importance as regards prices.

Australia, and China have receded to 15158 ; Lon_
