COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Full rates are demanded for discount accommo-
dation, and the supplies of bills are larger than of
late. Early in the week the terms for discount did
not vary, but there has been subsequent pressure for
the Indian engagements, and the ordinary calls for
assistance have created a stronger inquiry ; the rate,
therefore, has risen to 3 per cent. The purchases
of gold for France and Germany have produced a
Blight change. It seems certain that the rate will
not now experience any great fluctuation. From
21 per cent. the rate has advanced to 3 per cent.,
and, temporarily, the market is very firm.
A further withdrawal of £54,000 took place at
the Bank of England yesterday.
The specie movements during the past week have
been of an important character. The imports have
only amounted to about £113,871, including £60,000
from New Zealand, by the Blue Jacket ; £3,500
from New 'York, by the City of Antwerp ; and
£4,500 by the Hansa. The Nyanza, from Alex-
andria, has brought £1,040. £1,339 in silver has
been received from Portugal, and £43,492 from the
Continent. The exports have comprised remittances
to the Continent through private sources, estimated
at £170,363.
At the half yearly ordinary meeting of the share-
holders of the Great Central Gas Consumers' Com-
pany held yesterday the report of the directors was
adopted ; it stated that the sum available for
dividend amounted to £10,898 Bs. 7d., and a
dividend at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum was
declared, payable on and after the 28th of May
next.

The Master of the Rolls has appointed Mk. Price,
of the firm of Price, Holyland, and Waterhouse,
official liquidator of the Estates Investment Com-
pany (Limited).
_ The traffic receipts on the East Indian Railway
for the week ending 10th March amounted on 1,131
miles to £,52,447 7s. ; and for the corresponding
period of last year, on 1,1291 miles, to £43,726,158,
showing an increase of £8,720 11s. 4d.
