THE STOCK AND SHARE MARKETS.

                                                  City, July 27.
The English Stock Market has been very quiet during the
month, but the tone has been very firm, and an improvement of
nearly one per cent. has been established. Our last monthly
review left Consols at 96 to 1/8 ex. div.; from this point they
moved steadily upwards till the 5th inst., when the price touched
97; but a few days after, the unsettled aspect of the question
pending between Denmark and the Duchies began to exercise
an influence on the market, causing some degree of flatness.
Prices have since rallied, however, and Consols are now quoted
96¾ to 7/8.

The Railway Share Market has not been so steady this month,
the prices of all descriptions having receded, to a greater or less
extent, from the quotations previously ruling. Within the last
three or four days, however, more firmness has been apparent,
accompanied with a decided tendency to better prices.
