CITY, Two o'CLocK.
~laring the last few days the Foreign and
‘-olonial Produce Mnrkets have been moderately
aetive. Tea at public sale has realised an advance
°L, id to •!,d per lb. on the better qualities of Con-
rsBs, but green has been of lower value. Sugar
Continued at steady quotations, and coffee and
("°a met a moderate demand at former quota-
t,(.49. Saltpetre bas been in fair request, and the
ner descriptions obtained fully late quotations,
ant Inferior qualities were at a decline of about ls.
151 r cwt. on late rates. The transactions in tallow

‘7B been of a limited character. P. Y.C. on the
spot has declined to 22s 9d ; July to September,
613 3d ; and last three mouths, 50s 9d per cwt.
The Liverpool Cutton Market yesterday closed
4',444, but prices slightly declined. The sales
Were estimated at 10,000 bales, 2,500 of which were
taken
by the speculators, and 1,000 by the ex-
Porters. In Railway Shares there was no altera-
11°11 either in values or demand.
During the last few days nearly 400,0001. has
lien received flora Australia and America. This
large influx is likely to be followed by further re•
ittances in the course of the next fortnight, which
It la thought will more than suffice to meet the
foreign demand. The Indemnity, with 44,5001.,
LAds announced yesterday afternoon from Mel-
711rne, but it is considered probable that this sup-
Ply will be at once bought for transmission to
Feria.

The demand for money continues active, but no
further alteration in rates can be reported. The
ctive revenue collections and the preparations for
mid commercial payments have produced in-
°teased animation in the discount market, but the
t4ovement is considered merely temporary in its
character.
The Baron osy from Antwerp has brought silver
t 0
the value of about 40,0001., showing that in-
teased purchases of that metal are being made on
Eastern account.

The Council of State in France are stated to have
tlepted the treaty concluded between the Midi
Railway Company and the Languedoc Canal

The English Stock Market is rather heavy,
transactions
having been recorded at a slight de
cii4e. This unfavourable movement is attributed
, the approach of the settlement, and the disin-
dllation to effect speculative purchases. Consols
laps been 95 1, and they are now about 95g. A
.ew sales have been made by parties who consider
;decline more probable than an advance, despite
he rise on the Paris Bourse, and the favourable
eotlrse of political affairs. The New Threes are

one of the mountaie masses in the Pass of Llan-
tof;er as about three miles up the pass immense heaps of

kuole• The disjointed rocks, riven from the heights
