TWELVE O' CLOCK.
In the general discount market there is rather
more inquiry for accommodation, and bankers
and bill brokers are demanding former rates, the
.current quotations for the negotiation of first-class
short-dated paper being now 1i to per cent.
The Nineveh is announced as having sailed from
Sydney with gold to the amount Of about £95,000.
In the Corn Market this morning there has been
a very limited attendance, and both home-grown
and foreign wheat met a dull sale, at barely last
Monday's current rates.
Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures
are steady, at 20 20i ex div. ; and the Consoli-
dated Mortgage Bonds at 184 191.
The New Honduras Loan is steady, at 4 4 prem.
The letters of allotment will be issued in the course
of the week.
The directors of St. John d'El Rey Mining Com-
pany (Limited) have received the following report,
dated Morro Velho, Oct. 17, 1867 Produce for
Sept., 40,962 oitavas per ton ; from 5,514 tons
ore yield 7-053 oitavas per ton. Cost for Sep-
tember, £8,687; profit for ditto, £7,107. Produce,
11 days of October, 13,896 oitavas ; yield, 6,636
oitavas per ton.
At Leicester and Nottingham the hosiery de-
partments have been moderately active,,, but few
transactions have been entered into in lace, and
prices generally remain depressed. In the hardware
districts of Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolver-
hampton complaints are general as to the depressed
state of trade, as the large orders usually received
at this period of the year have generally been on an
exceedingly limited scale. Some hopes, however,
are entertained of a fair demand ere long from the
-United States.
The progress of business in the manufacturing
districts throughout the past week has been rather
unsatisfactory. At Manchester dulness has pre-
vailed in all departments, and, although spinners
and manufacturers have reduced prices, there have
been few
Bradford,
buyers. In the woollen districts of Leeds,
and Huddersfield no material change
can be reported. Spring fabrics, however, continue
to be inquired for to a fair extent.
Advises from Bombay state that the Bombay
Government repudiated all responsibility in the
losses sustained by shareholders of the Bank of
tionabay, and refused compensation of any sort. The
new Bank is not regarded with much interest at
present ; the business has been profitable, and the
assets continue to be of the most unexceptionable
character.
Messrs' VV. J. and H. Thompson, in their tea
!iircular, state as follows :--Since the date of our
a-s. t on the 9th inst. the same quiet tone has pervaded
the tea market. The trade have bought cautiously
f the Monings ex " Whinfell," and some chops
enave been much divided to effect sales. Foochow
