REDUCTION OF THE RATE OF INTERE:,I` BY THE
FAST INDIA COMPANY.

The following Notice au communicated to tit • Stock Exclurig,!
this atteinoon by Mr. Kennedy, front the It India Company :
"The Court of Directors of the United Company of Alerchants
trading to the East I::die%, do hereby give no-ize,
" That the present rate of 31. per cent. p r a mum, ::ow payable upo
the Bonds of the said Evil India Company, trill c...aav and dutetanine ;
the 31st day of March. 1831.
" That from and after the 31st day of .latch, 18.11, ouch lloi.ds w
bear an annual interest of 21. 10s.

"The holders of such Bo ids to b allrwel to !wing theri,
marked for continuation at the add interest or 21. la, pat e. lit. p;r
nttm, until the 3d day of 31:-rch, 1831; a d that ttery such
shall not be marked for continvation on or before the 3.1 .I.ly i,f
1831, shall be brought in, and paid off' en the said 31st d..t. of AI :re ~
1831 ; on which day all interert shall cease."
The previous reduction on India Bonds from 4 to 3 p,:r cent s..a
carried into effect on the 10th September, 1828.
The above notice was a good de.l anticipated in the course of last
week, when the premium on de Bonds fell from 88s. to 82s. A doubt
subsequently arose whether, in c3nsequence of the great change in fo.
reign politics, and money being likely to be more in demand, the East
India Company would nut have been induced to postpone the measure
to a later period. The contrary, however, appears to be the case, and
India Bonds underwent a further depression on the promulgation of the
notice front 80s. to 7(n. The closing premium was 775. In Exche-
quer Bills there was no alteration.
