The letters and papers by the West India mail offer no-
thing of interest, most of the- islands being tranquil, and
blessed apparently with favour able seasons.

There appears a disposition on the part of many parties to
throw cold water on the extension of railways in England,
while foreign projects are upheld. Now, in our opinion, among
Englishmen at least, the ruling principle ought to be in favour
of giving the advantages of the employment of capital to
their own country, rather than subscribing for foreign
lines. There is a rapidly-increasing desire on the part of the
moneyed interest to promote the extension of the railway-
system in Ireland, and the certainty that her
Majesty will visit the "Emerald Isle" this year imparts a
tone of elasticity to the market for Irish railway shares. A
new, or rather an extension line of the Newry and Ennis-
killen to Sligo, has been brought forward under the most
favourable auspices.
The Funds have been very feebly supported to-day,
with the exception of Exchequer-bills which continue firm
at 60s. to 625. premium, because of the large portion of the
surplus revenue which is to be invested in them. Consols
have been 991,1 to for Money, and 991,E to a for Account.
The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 101%
to 4.5, and the Three per Cents 9814 to 1,(2. Bank Stock
has been less firm at 210 to 211.

The Foreign Bonds continue to be neglected. Spanish
Three per Cents. are 40% ; Portuguese Converted, 65% to 4 ;
Mexican, 3614 to N. ; and Colombian, 153/4 to 14. Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents have been 63 to 14.
Shares, both English and Foreign, range somewhat lower
to-day, and the tone of the market is flat. The Irish lines
are best supported, ruling, in f&Lt, at about previous rates.
