The Overland Express is the only arrival we have to-day,
and the accounts relative to the state of trade are much the
same as those last to hand. Perhaps, on the whole, they do
not describe them as being so active ; but this is not remark-
able, because the best season had passed. Caution in making
shipments of goods to India ought still to be repeatedly en-
forced as the best, and, in short, only means of keeping the
markets in a healthy state.
The colonies have exhibited certain signs of revival of
prosperity, which cannot but be cheering. The Directors of
the Union Bank of Australia made a very able report to
their shareholders yesterday, and, withal, a very impartial
one ; and from the statements in it there is every reason to
conclude that our southern colonies will soon be again free of
their embarrassments. The bank is, itself, by the good'di-
vidend which it continues to yield, the best proof that there
are the elements of renewed confidence and prosperity, if
the Australians will but refrain from speculation.
The Public Securities are to-day without any particular
alteration, and with a fair business doing. Consols have
been 99 to % for present Transfer, and 99% 14 for Time.
Exchequer-bills have receded to 565. and 535. premium.
Bank Stock is worth 210% to 211%. The New Three-and-
a- Quarter per Cents. have been 102% %.
The Foreign market is very dull-not a bargain is officially
noted either in Spanish or Portuguese. Mexican are at
37%, being steady; Colombian have been 17%; Buenos
Ayres, 48111; and Brazilian 91, being steady. Venezuela
Stock is at 4411. Dutch Two-and-a-llalf per Cents. have
been 621% %.
Shares are not quite so good this morning, with one or two
exceptions. Manchester and Leeds are higher, and also
Churnet Valley; but Cambridge and Lincoln are lower.
Croydon are firm.
