TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Recent events in connection with the bank failure
at
Liverpool have induced a large amount of re-
"rve on the part of capitalists, and the rates in the
Open money market remain very firm, although the
money afloat is abundant. The demand, however,
continues moderate, and the lowest quotations of
brokers are 51, and 6 per cent. for the negotiation
of the best short-dated paper.
There were no gold operations of importance at
the Bank of England on Saturday.
The report of the Royal Mail Steam Company
recommends a dividend of £4 10s. per share, and a
b "us of £2 10s. from the insurance fund, free of
Income tax, payable on and after the 28th snst.
The directors of the Australian Mortgage Land
and Finance Company have have issued their report
Previous to the meeting of the 24th instant. They
estimate that their operation have fully realised.the
anticipations expressed at the meeting in January,
and recommended a dividend at the rate of 12i per
ceat. per annum, that £9,500 be placed to the reserve
fund,
£479 to preliminary expenses, and £ll2 to be
carried forward.
„ The accounts from the most of the manufacturing
eistricts for the past week state that dullness has
prevailed in most departments. Cloths and yarns
Lee anchester have further given way, while at
is, Bradford, and Huddersfield there has been
only a limited business entered into. In the hard-
ware districts of Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wol-
Zerharopton less activity has been apparent in most
uraaehes of business.
