The returns of the Quarter's Revenue as published, in
Tours:and
general terms are considered as most satisfactory, especially
as respects the Customs and Excise; but as to the aug-
mentation of the Post-office revenues we do not think that the
i n crease, so tar as it goes, is worth that high degree ofcommen d a-
t ion paid to this branch of the revenue by some ofour Contempo-
raries. It is the farthest from our intention to save word against
the new system of postage as brought forward, and so suc-
cessfully carried out under the auspices of Mr. Rowland Hill.
But there have been accessions to the Post office revenue
which cannot be expected to continue. We allude to the
share immense mass
the of letters sent for applications for
s in new railway and other companies
which have been started in the last quarter. We have it
on undoubted authority that there were 36,000 letters sent
through the Post-office, all being applications for shares in a
recently formed railway concern.
We have accounts to-day from Buenos Ayres to the 25th
of January. The Legislature had been opened, and Roses
in his address enters most fully into the affairs of the Re-
public; and a pretty fair picture is drawn of the state of
its condition. A political feeling against America appears to
be in the ascendant.
There has been an increase of :business in the Money
Market to-day. There have been private transfers made in
Ii these stocks, which have been for some weeks closed, pre-

paratory to the payment of the quarterly dividend. Without
the interest new flu,; 73=.1/1. r.:12
211 ; the Three per Cents. Reduced at 98%, and at 98%
and the New Three-and. a-Quarter per Cents. at 10214 and
102. Consols for the Account at 99% %. The premium
upon Exchequer-bills has advanced slightly.
Very few bargains have been made in the Foreign Funds.
Spanish Passive have been sold at 74 ; the Colombian, ex
Venezuelian, at 1574 to 16 ; Mexican at 35%; and the Dutch
Four per Cents, at 97% /31.
The Railway Share `Market is most active, especially for
the Irish and the French lines.
