' . ¦ - T * ~ - ' ¦ ¦ : London , Friday Evening , March 6 , 1857 . So confident was the City and its followers in the certainty of Lord Palmerston obtaining a majority on the Chinese question , that they kept up the price of Consols at 94 in the face of a continuation amounting to nine-sixteenths per cent * and even higher . The unexpected defeat of the Ministry sorely tried the tempers of our respectable moneyed men . No question of right or wronpc arose , or whether members had really voted conscientiously or only for factious purposes . A party of enthusiastic admirers , headed by Lambeth officialism , went round with a hat , I beg pardon , a paper , begging signatures from voters requesting Lord Palmerstqn to stand for London in the event of a dissolution . It is said , they met with only tvro refusals .
Thp funds , however , fell , and still look to go down lower . Hail way Shares are well supported—Caledonian and Eastern Counties still taking the lead . Foreign shares , such as Paris and Lyons , Orleans , Northern , Great Luxembourg , Namurs , Sambres , and Dutch Ithetiisk are in demand . Lombardo-Venotians hang fire ; the Hebrew party , which especially favours this line , has been so busy the last week with the marriage of one of its scions , that it has neglected to keep up its price . Heavy shares are well maintained , Great "Westerns and London and South-Westerns prominently . Great Western , of Canada are creeping up to 30 Z . per share by slow degrees . The coming dividend : will be nearer nine per cent , than seven , and the traffic receipts increase weekly . Grand Trunk of Canada are about 13 ; the expenditure of the Great Victoria Bridge , aud the risk of its not being completed , will tend to keep those shares low for some time—their traffic returns are excellent .
Turkish Six per Cent , bonds have fluctuated a good deal ; the April dividend may probably send them to par , but there is no stable confidence shown toy the holders of this stock . The Guaranteed Four per Cent , stock stands at 101 , 102 , but little dealt ; in . Ceylon Railway is 10 s . per share better . Joint-Stock Banks have been briskly dealt in . Ottoman and Egyptian Banks show great fluctuations . In Ottomans , 12 . and 11 . 10 s . per share ; United Mexican mines show 10 s . per share improvement . A fair amount of business has been transacted in British mines . A Paris Chocolate Company ( Limited ) , established for the purpose of giving us pure chocolate as it is drunk in France , is announced . The prospectus puts forth a list of very reliable names , and "we may bo permitted to hope that our breakfast-tables will be the gainers by the association .
