STOCK Exclisnlr, Fainsy ArrEasoox.

The Market for English Securities, which was firm at the beginning of the week, has given way per cent., under time pressure of sales of Stink, attributed to the intelligence of Mr. 11'Niais withdrawal from Persia, and by the state of the Belgic question. There has not, however, been much business doing, and the fluctuation has not exceeded per cent. Bank Stock has been steady, and is quoted to-day at 203. India Stock is 255. Exchequer Bills have fluctu- ated between 64 and 68. IndiasBonds are to-day quitted at 64. Long An- nuities maintain their price; the near approach of the Dividend inducing many purchases in this Stock, which has continued at 15 and 15 1-16 for some time, while other descriptions of smithy have not been firm. The approaching denouement 01' tho Dutch and Belgian farce lifts attracted, the notWe of the speculators to the thuds of those countries ; and they have fluctuated as peaceful or warlike rumours have prevailed. The business has been chiefly confined to Dutch Stock. whieli till lately had improved, while Belgian Securities were neglected. During the hot few days, Dutch Stock has declined, but a corresponding impsovement has nat taken place in Belgian.

Dutch Two-and-n-llalf, which were at 55.}. are 5 q and Belgian haveheen 09k, but are now 98A—the transactions in this security are never extensive, but little being held in En eland.

Russian and the other European Continental Stocks are steady. Brazil jut has improved nearly 1 per cent.. having been done at ;91. The other Smith American Securities are steady. Mexican Bonds are dull at the nominal quotations of last week.

Some very considerable trensactions have occurred in Spanish Stock ; Which bus sustained its recent advance, notwithstanding that it is still 'higher here than in ails- of the Continental markets, and that some very heavy sales have been made in it on Dutch and French account. The exciting causes for this speculation are, the general improvement which has apparently taken place in the prospects of the Spanish Liberals ; the belief that a commercial treats- has been or is about to be concluded with England, which will tend materially to augment the fiscal revenue of the country ; and the hope that the King of the French will at last be compelled to admit M. Timms. and his principle of in- tervention, into his Cabinet. There is also a report that a conference of the Great Powers is about to assemble in London, with a view to the settlement of

the Spanish question ; and although this last rumour is not, we believe, entitled to the slightest credit, it has not been without its effect upon the market. The price of' the Active Stock has fluctuated between 194 and 204; on two occa- sions it has been done at each of these extreme prices on the same day. Portuguese Securities have remained steady, with little doing.

The business of the Railway Share Market has been unimportant, and the revived demand has not led to any material improvement in prices. A meeting of the shareholders of the Anti-Dry Rot was held yesterday ; at which the Com- mittee appointed at the previous meeting made a report upon the present state a the Company. The principal characteristic of the meeting was an anxiety to avoid all description of legal proceedings ; and in this spirit a resolution was earned for the appointment of three gentlemen, to be hereafter named, who it Is proposed shall ttet as arbitrators for the adjustment of the claims of the scrip aud registered shareholders, audit is proposed that all parties interested should give bond to abide by the award of the arbitrators. SATURVAlt, Two Lye O'CLOCK.

The English Funds are steady at yesterday's prices, with little doing. The business of the Foreigu Market has been almost entirely confined to Spanish Stock, which opened at 20h ; has been done at 20a, and is now 20a I. The French mail of Thursday hiu not yet arrived; it is lion ever reported that there is au express in town, bringing intelligence of the appointment of' M. Timms to the Ministry ; and hence the firmness of the Spanish Securities. The Thal- stay Shares are nominally at yesterday's prices. At the recent meeting of the London and Birmingham proprietors, a dividend was declared of iq per cent. on the capital for the last six months; and it was determined to capitalize the Debentures now outstanding, and to apply to Parliament for plover to raise another million, to meet any contingent expenses that may arise in the final completion of the Railway. The South American Securities are heavy. Columbian 284 4; Buenos Ayres 17 to 19; Chilian 26 S. Mexican are also flatter, hciog quoted 234 24
