MONDAY NIGHT

—The" past week has been marked with much depression
and general dulness, and prices for produce are lower,
particularly for the low brown descriptions of Sugar. In
the value of Tea and Coffee there is little change, and Rice
has attracted rather more attention from the reports
lately current regarding the potato disease.
We have had but little doing here in foreign Wool this
week, and the reports both from the country and the
Continent state that they are very dull there, and that
prices are a shade lower.
The Share-market has considerably improved since our
last; and there is a better feeling with regard to this de-
scription of property The advance within the last week
has been great, caused by speculative purchases. A little
reaction is expected, though nothing of moment. The
dosing prices to-day were—Aberdeen, 104 Chester and
Birkenhead, 151 ; Caledonian, 12,1- ; Old Leeds, 57k ; Do.
Fifths, Ski ; Lancaster ana Carlisle Thirds, 7ie ; Leeds
Northern, 134-; Lnndon 'stock, 1174 ; Do. new Quarters,
3ip ; Dn. Fifths, 4,3; Midland, 49 ; Do. Halves, 17i:1;
North Staffordshire, Sid ; North Western, lnd ; 0141
foyers, 19i ; York, Nee; c. and 13;..rw. 19; Steam Tug, 6i.
MONEY MARKET.—LONDON, SATURDAY.—The Con.
sot market presented a quiet and equable appearance.
Consols were quoted all day 964 to 7, both for money and
account, but with an apparent tendency to hither quota-
tions—a fact which may be referable to the state of the
account, during which speculative sellers have been nu-

numerous, and may not have been able or willing to cut
"short" their differences under probably the expectation
that chances may turn up in their favour before settling
day arrives. Exchequer Bias were steady at 433. to 463.,
and India Bonds at 465. to 493. premium.
The return of the movement of the Bank of England
for the week ending on the 27th ult., in the Gazette of
this evening, gives the following changes compared with
the week ending the 20th ult.:—ln the department of
issue the notes in circulation had increased £289,850,

which had been produced by an increase of £280,850 in
the gold coin or bullion, the silver bullion remaining un-
altered. On the debit side of the banking department the
rest had increased £4,130, the public deposits had increased
£500.339, the private deposits had increased £22,022. and
the seven-day and other post hills had decreased £1,803,
making the total of the liabilities £37,487,798. On the
credit side the government securities remained unaltered ;
the ether securities had increased £462,563, the notes had
increased £54,715, and the gold and silver coin had in-
creased £7,410, which equalised the account. The bullicn
in both departments of the Bank had increased from
£14,665,140 to £14,953,400, being a difference of £288,260.
The paper in actual circulation had increased from
£20,171,226 to £20,395,558, being a difference of
£224,332. _ _

THE REVENUE.—The official returns of the quar`er's
revenue will be made up on Friday evening next, the 10th
instant. Although not yet quite complete, enough is
known to enable us to state that the returns for the cur.
rent quarter will continue to present a most favourable
result. In spite of all the remissions of taxation the pre-
sent quarter will sho v an increase over the corresponding
quarter of last year. With such a greatly diminished
expenditure as the late reductions have produced, the
surplus revenue from receipts which, notwithstanding all
reductions, still keep up th

twit amount, promises to
be even greater in the n:•xt financial year than It has been
in the years 1850 or 1851. There will be a falling off in

the stamps of about £ICO.OOO, which is less than the loss
calculated on the reduction of stamp duties. which the
