SHARE MARKET.-(THIS DAY.)

ORDINARY SHARES AND STOCKS.

Very little activity has been apparent during
the last few days in the Foreign and Colonial Pro-
duce Market. Tea, however, has been rather
firmer, and the advices by the Overland Mail
has caused an advance of about id. per lb.
For sugar there has been a very limited inquiry,
and prices have slightly receded. In the refined
market business has been on a very limited scale,
and reduced rates are current. Coffee is in fair
demand, more particularly the better qualities of
Plantation Ceylon, which realise fully late quota-
tions. A verylimited inquiry has been experienced
for fruit, and owing to the inferior quality of the
late arrivals, prices have shown a downward ten- S
dency. Saltpetre continues firm, and transactions Si
to some extent have been entered into at full rates.
For tallow there is rather more inquiry, especially s,
for present delivery, and prices show a slight up-

The Silver Market is rather firmer. The dollars
by the last West India packet were disposed of at
1-Id. per oz. standard, being a further advance
of id.
There was a general meeting of the shareholders
of the Namur and Liege Railway Company to-day
(Major Parry in the chair), when the amended
statutes were submitted to the proprietors for con-
firmation, in consequence of the disposal of the line
to the Great Northern of France Company, the
Mons and Menage having been made over to the
Belgian Government, by which a fixed dividend is
assured to the proprietors.
The Market for English Securities continues
very quiet; but the quotations, although not buoy-
ant, are still indicative of firmness. At present,
however, speculation is exceedingly dull, as
usual; just before the liquidation of the account ;
and the • influx of gold, and the satisfactory
payment of the commercial engagements due on the
4th, have had no apparent effect. Consols are
about 981.-1 for transfer and the 12th inst., and 98,1
for the 18th November. The June Exchequer Bills
are marked 255. to 28s. prem. ; East India Deben-
tures are rather firmer, viz., 991 ; ditto, second
issue, are steady, at 991 1.
Foreign Securities are moderately active, and
quotations are well maintained. Turkish 6 per

4 per Cents., 105 ; Brazilian 5 per Cents. 1011

Deferred, 151 ; Belgian 41 per Cents., 101; and
Dutch 4 per Cents., 100 1001.

In the Railway Share Market the dealings have
been of a limited character. Prices have been firm,
and. in several instances at a slight advance.
Eastern Counties, Great Western, and South
Western improved ss. ; Caledonian, East_ Lanca-
shire, Great Northern, North British, and South
Eastern, 10s. ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, North
Western, Midland and North Eastern (York)
declined 10s. The Foreign and Colonial lines have
been at steady rates. Northern of France have
improved. 55., and East Indian, 10s. ; Grand Trunk
of Canada have declined ss.
For Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares
there has been scarcely any inquiry, and quotations
are unaltered. British North American Bank
realise 581 59, and Union of London, 24t. Crystal
