THIS DAY.
Noon. Business in the Share Market has been rather slack this morning. Yangtze In- surances are still in great deniand; shares were parted with at taels 1225 per share and also at 1250, buyers.ruling the market at the higher rate when our report left. China Fires have also improved their posi- tion, offers of 395 per share rat inducing holders to part; there are, however, sellers at 400.
Steamboats are in request at 39 per 'share premium, but no shares are at present to be had at that figure. Nothing else requires special notice.
