AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCII,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The Discount Market to-day is quiet, and the

rates are easy.
At the Bullion Office of the Bank of England
there were no gold operations of importance on
Saturday.
A general meeting of the Port Phillip and Colo-
nial Gold Mining Company is announced to be held
on the 22d inst., to receive a report from the direc-
tors for the past half-year. It recommends a distri-
bution of Is. per share, payable on the 23d inst., free

general finance shows a surplus, after discharging
every liability in England, of £7,243, which, after
Payment of the dividend, and 10 per cent. added to
the reserve fund, will leave a balance of £l,BBl to
be carried forward.

The Bank of Australia held their half-yearly
meeting to-day, when a dividend was declared at
the rate of 6 per cent. per annum and a bonus of
6k per cent. per annum, being equal to £2 10s. per
share, payable the 15th October next.

tures are steady, at 23f 24k, and the Consolidated

The Directors of the St. John D'El Roy Mining
Company (Limited) have received the following
report, dated Morro Velho, 17th July, 1867 :
Produce for June, 51,543 oitavas; from 6,021 tons

£10,774; profit for do., £9,102. Produce for 11

The accounts from the manufacturing districts
for the past week are of a less favourable character.
At Manchester the advices from the Indian markets
having caused considerable depression, owing to
several failures, cloths and yarns were only iu
moderate request, and generally at reduced rates.
In the woollen districts of Leeds, Bradford, and
Huddersfield the amount of goods sold has been
under the average of former seasons, but prices
generally remain steady. The hosiery and lace
trades of Leicester and Nottingham have been dull,
operations for the fall trade not having yet com-
menced ; fancy goods, however, have been in mode-
rate request, while in the hardware districts of Bir-
mingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton, the
intervention of the rules at the latter place has, in
some measure, caused a slight cessation of business
operations. The general tone of the trade, how-
ever, has been more cheerful. A few firms have
received moderate orders from Russia for railway
iron, but the improvement has not been general.

Two o'CLoci.

day, the French Rentes were 69f. 60c. Heavy.
Little activity has been observable to-day in the
market for English Stocks, and, indeed, in securi-
ties of all kinds. Very few speculative operations
are reported, and investments are reduced to a mini-
mum, owing to the absence of so many people from
the metropolis. There is scarely any variation, and
Consols are 941 for money and 94; for the
account.
