TO-DAY.
THE SUARE MARKET,
.5 o'clock,
A fair amount of business has been done these last two days, principally för forward delivery. Banks were arranged yesterday at 17 'per cent. premium for the end of the month, and to-day at 170, 170), and 171, but there are sellers for cash at 170. Hongkong Fires have been placed at from 342 to 345, and there are now buyers at the higher rate. In China Fires business has been put through at 80, at which quotation there are further sellers. A few shares could be placed at 79. Docks are weak at 37 per cent, premium for the end of the month. Steamboats have been placed at 228 and 229 for the end of March, also at 226 for the 31st instant, and are on offer for cash at 226. China Sugars are out of favo: at 195, and Luzons, quoted nominally at 84. are also temporarily under a cloud. The Rope Co.'s scrip appears to be in good demand at go. but no transactions have been reported. Punjoms were sold.yester- day at 7, and further shares are now wanted. The boom in the Steam Launch Co.'s shares has suffered a relapse, offers to sell at 15 per cent: premium failing to lead to business. Other quotations speak for. themselves.
