                    THE STOCK AND SHARE MARKETS.

                                                                 City, Sept. 27.

During the early part of the month the business in the English
Stock Market was moderately active, but for the last fortnight
very little has been done either for speculation or investment,
and prices have remained almost stationary. Our last review
left Consols at 96? to ½, from which price there was little variation
till the 8th inst., when they became rather weaker, and declined
to 96. Since then the market has been steadier, and the price
is quoted this day 96½ to ?. The transfer books of the Reduced
3 per Cents, and the 3¼ per Cents, and two or three other stocks,
are shut for the dividend: they will re-open on the 18th Oct.

In the Railway Share Market this has been a month of great
excitement and fluctuation. Extensive purchases have been
made and the prices of nearly all the chief stocks have experienced
a very considerable rise, which, notwithstanding a
temporary re-action, is well maintained; the tone of the market
to-day being firm, and prices still looking up.
