The opening sale of West India Pines,by Keelingand Hunt,
has gone off very favourably, and both from the numerous
attendence and the prices realised, it is evident that increased
interest is felt in this new branch of trade. _ _

We observe nothing of particular interest in the advices
from America beyond what appears in another column of
The Sun. _ _

_
The favourable state of the revenue, considering the great
decrease that might have been anticipated from the reduc-
tion of duties, is a pleasing circumstance in reference to the
condition of the working classes.
The Funds are again rather lively, and as respects the
heavy securities have been rather higher, viz., 1021,! % for
the New Three-and-a- Quarter per Cents.; the Three per
Cents. have been 99% 3/4 ; Bank Stock is 2103/4 to 211%;
and India Stork 276; Consols have been 99% to IA for pre-
sent transfer and the 18th instant.

Spanish Actives have been 27 to 2714, and the Three per
Cents. 38 to 38%, being rather better. Mexican are
37 4, a slight decline. l'ortuguese Converted are steady
at 66. Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents are 98% to 9876.
Business in the Share Market is conducted on a moderate
scale. Croydon are better, Brighton buoyant, Caledonian
lower; South-Eastern and Cambridge, and Lincoln firm, and
the foreign lines dull.
