The only foreign news which creates the least interest is the
accounts from Spain which state that
,the Carlists under Villa-
real have obtained an important victory over the constitutional-
ists. In the course of a few days news of the highest importance
from the north of Spain may be expected.
The public securities have been in a very tranquil state during
the whole of the day. Consols for Account have remained at
91i, and for Money at 913 1. The Omnium has been quoted
nominally at 41 per cent. prem. A third instalment of 71 per
cent. upon the West India Compensation Loan will become
due on the 13th instant. It was expel.:.l.ed that the commission-
ers for the litigated West India compensation claims would have
made further investments to-day, and some disappointment was
in consequence felt by those who had prepared themselves to
supply the amount of money-stock required. The further in-
vestments will, we understand, be made on Monday twit.
The following are the days fixed by the Court of Directors of
the Bank of England for the shutting, and re-opening of the
transfer books upon those portions of the public securities, the
dividends upon which will fall clue in January next :

In the Foreign Market there has been bet little business
transacted to-day. New Spanish Bonds have fluctuated be-
tween 42 and 42-i, closing this afternoon at 424. No bargains
were made in the old bonds to-day. Portuguese Stock left off
at 885, and the 3 per Cents. at 5735. Danish, Dutch, and Rus-
sianßonds remain at yesterday's prices. Colombian has fallen
again to 314. The quotations of the other South American
securities are entirely nominal.
There has been a considerable decrease in the speculative
demand for railway shares, and prices appear to be gradually
on the decline. The only fresh projects in the market this week
are the London and Gravesend Railway, and the Eastern Rail-
Way shares. Considerable interest is niauifested to learn the
period when the shares of the Danube and Maine Canal Com-
pany will be issued; as the project is under the management of
Mr. N. M. Rothschild, high premiums have already been -of-
fered for the shares. The whole of the arrangements having
been made with the Bavarian government, it is untlei stood that
the shares will be issued on Tuesday next. To show the degree
of avidity with i,vhich shares in the company are sought after, we
may state the fact, that the great capitalist received application
for 85,000 shares, while the total number for distribution in Eng-
lania is but 8000, the Bavarian government taking-5000 shares,
and the remainder being for distribution on the continent. The
London and GAenwielt Railway shares have dropped within
the last few days from £9 to £8 premium, the Groat Western
from 16 to 85 premium, the London and Birmingham front 45
to 385 premium, the London and Blackwell from 3 to 2 prem.,
and the Brighton (Stevens's line) to £4 premium. The shares
of the other Brighton line (Gibbs's) are at to premium.
Some business has been done in the Loudon and Gravesend
Railway shares at from Ito premium.
