With the view of extending commerce and inter-
communication in Spain, a project has been announced
under the name of ,the Royal North of Spain Railway.
It has the patronage of Queen Isabel's, and it need
hardly be said of the whole of those interested in the
prosperity of the country, and not a few people
in Great Britain, who, as creditors for loans
raised here, and arrears of interest, have a very
deep concern indeed in anythirg that may tend to im-
prove the resources of the Spanish Government. We
understand that this projt et—the first, we believe—of
creating railways in Spain, has met with a very eon-
aiderabh degree cf support, not only in London but
also on the Parisian Bourse. There is little doubt enter-
tained that the project will eminently succeed.
'I he Stock Exchange, on anal after to-morrow, will
not be opened until half past ten o'clock in the morning,
and will close at half-past three. The members, as times
go in other departments of business, may consider
themselves fortunate in having to complain of too
much to do. The English Funds to-day are dull. Con-
sols for present transfer realise 100 to 100*, and for Ac-
count 100* to I. Exchequer-bills have been 60s. to 575.
premium, and East India Bonds 70s. to 725. premium.
The market for Foreign Stocks is also very inactive.
Spanish Five per Cents are nominally 30 to 4; the
Passive have been done at 74; and Portuguese Con-
verted at 674. Columbian have ranged from 141 to 151.
Russian Bonds are firm at 1164; and Dutch Four per
l'en's. at 994 ,i.
The market for Railway Shares has been active, and
the quota'ions generally are supported.
