THE STOCK AND SHARE MARKETS.

City, Aug. 27.

The English Stock Market has been characterised by some
degree of dulness during the month, and the prices which ruled
at the date of our last monthly review have not been sustained.
The business transacted has not been of an important character,
and the extreme fluctuation amounts to scarcely one per cent.
Consols were quoted on the 29th ult. at 967/8 to 97, and from this
point they drooped gradually till the 21st inst., when they
touched 98. Since then, however, the market has been firmer
and looking up, and Consols are now quoted 963/8 to 1/2.

The prices of most descriptions of Railway Shares have been
well supported during the month, and in many instances an
advance in value has been established. The business, generally,
has been on a quiet scale, speculators keeping out of the market,
and the operations on account of bonâ fide investers being
comparatively few.
