THE SHARE MARKET.
5 o'clock.
Since last writing a large and important business has been done in China Sugars at 184 and 185 for cash and also at 186 and 187 for the end of the year, the stock closing very firm and with further buyers at the higher cash rate, About two thousand shares are reported to have changed hands. Banks are a trifle weaker to-day, with cash sellers at 154. Inquiries for Docks at 38 per cent. premium have hitherto failed to bring sellers to the front. Business has been done, ́however, at 40 for December. Steamboats were on offer this morning at 215 for cash and 217 for the end of the year, but no actual transfers have been reported. The rush on the China and Manila Co.'s scrip continues, and there would appear to be very little doubt that a gold- mine, or something equally wonderful, has been discovered between here and Manila, Late last night shares changed hands at 157 and 160, and this lorenoon there were further, transactions at 162 and 163 for December. The stock is now in demand for cash at 160. Douglas Steams have dropped to 62, and ore -temporarily out of favor. The shares
