In the negotiation of bills of exchange, yesterday af-
ternoon, nearly the previous rates were obtained by th.t
drawers. Paris (90 days) was a shade higher, being 25
62i to 67,1; Hamburgb, 13 121 to Amsterdam, 12 24-
to *; Frankfurt, 121-8- to -,t; and Trieste, 11 30 to 33.
The shareholders in the London and North-Western
Railroad will be called upon, at the ensuing meeting, to
give their opinion, if not their votes, upon the audit
question, and as it it easy to accomplish the most diffi-
cult task where the will exists, there is no doubt that a
satifactory system of private audit can be established.
In some comarks on the Share Market, the editor of the
Railway Circular of to-day remarks, that—
" Great Western, have been slightly affected by the
operations of Bears. We can, however, assure our
friends, that, at the meeting to be held on the 14th inst.,
the present condition and the future prospects of this
company will be shown to be more satisfactory than at
any period since 1845. Caledonians have improved, since
the resignation of the directors has become a matter of
fact. London and North-Westerns are very firm.
" Now that money can be borrowed on debentures
fully 1 per cent. cheaper than last year, that most of the
American stocks are from 10 to 20 per cent. higher, and
with the rise in our own Government Funds, it follows
almost as a matter of certainty that railway shares must
partake of the general improvement caused by the in-
creased commerce and weath of the country."
The exports of bullion this week, direct from Lon-
don, have been confined to 99,000 ounces of silver, to
France and Belgium.

Decrease

The accounts from the manufacturing districts state
that business in woollen goods was tolerably active,
though rather dull in cotton fabrics.

Vie improvement which commenced yesterday morn-
ing in the English Funds, and had become more positive
before the close of the market, has made further pro-
eress. Consols have been 954 and are Row 95-11 4.
There is not a great deal doing. The New Three-and-
a-Quarter per Cents. have realised 98/ to and the
Three per Cents. 958 to 96. Exchequer-bills have re-
mained at 555. to 58s. premium.

In the Foreign market Peruvian Bonds support their
value, and have recovered to 79 and 80. Equador are
4/ to 48. Buenos Ayres have touched 62 and 64i-.
Guatemala have been at 40. Mexican have at length
taken a start, after their recent extraordinary quietude,
the excitement in other Spanish American investments
considered. They have been done at 298 and 291.
Spanish Three per Cents. are neglected at 368. Dutch
Two-and-a-Half rer Cents. have been 55ii to I.
Railway Shares have rather an upward tendency, but
business is not brisk. Madrid and Valentia have been
