that the efforts of genius, however wonderful, •
would cease to be valued because they would almost
be unknown, but for the sympathetic souls
who can appreciate its inspiration, and so
give them substantial aid, by a talismanic
agency which alone has been hitherto wanting in
carrying out the idea of the inventor's mind. That
agency has found generous and comprehensive
hearts and intellects in the person of Mr. ROY
CAMPBELL, the chairman of the directors, who has
laboured, such as few would labour, in carrying
out the ways and means which are the very life-
blood that poor genius wants. Nor shall we
pass over the merits of Mr. JACKSON—himself a
HERCULES in commercial enterprise ! And
now, as we conclude our brief and hurried
notice, we must, with all who know him, do but
simple justice by naming Mr. YATES, who may
be called the very first-rate stoker of the Great
Ensitern ; for to his unrivalled management it is
owing, we believe, that the fires of her salvation
have been kept in a glow of hope which will
blaze on to a long prosperity,

310IV,S'Y MARKET AND CITY NEWS.

CITY, Two o'CLocK.

In the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets,
during the last few days, business has been rather
inactive, and little variation of importance has
taken place in values. Tea has been exceedingly
firm, but the inquiry is limited. Sugars have been
dealt in to a fair extent for home consumption at a
slight decline on former quotations, and in the
refined market the trade have limited their opera-
tions, notwithstanding slightly reduced values.
For coffee the demand has been rather active, and
full prices obtained for plantation and Native Cey-
lon. Rice, fruit, and saltpetre have exhibited very
little activity, and they remain at about previous
values. Tallow has been rather inactive, a slight
reduction having taken place for present and for-
ward delivery. _ _

In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday a fair
amount of business was transacted, and prices re-
mained without any important change. The sales
were estimated at from 7,000 to 8,000 bales.
The Railway Share market closed quietly, but
quotations were firmer.
Although the applications for discount accommo-
dation at the Bank are rather less numerous, the
general demand continues active. Some doubt,
however, is expressed whether any immediate
necessity will arise for an advance in the
minimum quotation. The present inquiry is
to some extent merely temporary, being partly
caused by agricultural operations, which will
cease at an early period to affect the mar-
ket. The Indian Loan and other negotia-
tions, however, may eventually initiate a perma-
nent alteration in the tendency of monetary affairs.
There were no bullion operations at the Bank of
England yesterday.
The steamer Tyne, which leaves to-day for the
Brazils, will take out specie to the amount of
£37,080, viz., £27,880 in gold, and £9,200 in
silver.

The steamer Emeu, with the London mail of
July 18th, left Suez on the 28th for Australia.
The Columbian, with the mail of the corresponding
date, left at the same time for Bombay. The
Benares remains at Suez, to take forward the
August mails for Australia.
At the commencement of business to-day in-
creased buoyaAy was apparent in the market for
public securities, and a further rise of t- per cant.
was exhibited. Since then, however, sales have
been pressed, and a reaction has occurred, the
funds being rather heavy at a decline from the highest
point of nearly •?; per cent. The settlement of the
account is exercising a decided influence upon values.
Consols, which have been 955 1, are now 951 / for
money, and 954 for the 7th proximo.
The New Threes and the Reduced have been dealt
in at 95.1 96 ; Long Annuities (1860), at 11-16 ;
ditto (1885), at 18 1-16 ; and Exchequer Bills, at
265. to 30s. prem. ; India Loan Debentures (1858),
remain at 941 ; and ditto 1859, improved to 94.
Business in the Foreign Stock Market continues
rather active, and prices appear steady. Turkish
6 per Cents. arP 83 to 85 ; ditto New, 731 to 741 ;
Buenos Ayres Deferred are firmer at 181.4 ; Chilian
6 per Cents. at 103 to 104 ; Peruvian 41 per Cents.
at 921 931 ; Grenada Active remains at 17 ; ditto
D ?ferred, at 5 ; Mexican, at 191 ; Spanish Deferred,
at 331 ; Venezuelan New 21 per Cents., at 281 to
29; and the 1 per Cents. at 151.
The Railway Share Market has presented a
rather inactive appearance, and in several instances
lower rates have been current. Caledonian, East
Kent, Midlands, and North Eastern (Berwick)
declined ss. ; Great Western, North Western, and
South Eastern, 10s. ; Norfolk, 155., and Brighton,
£l.

The Foreign lines have been at slightly lower
quotations. Lombardo-Venetian Old Shares are
dealt in at 10y, and the New at 101.
In the Colonial Market East Indian have de-

dined. to 991 ; Grand Trunk of Canada to 341;
Great Indian Peninsula are steady, at 971; 98 ; and
the New Shares at 31.
Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares
show little variation. Bank of Egypt have declined
ss. ; London and County advanced 10s. ; and
Union of Australia, 15s. Peninsula and Oriental
Steam are steady, at 77.1.
