TO-DAY, THE-SHARE-MARKET.

5 o'clock.

There has been very little doing in the Share Market since we last wrote,,China Sugars have slightly improved their position, and are now wanted at r52, Docks, on the other hand, are scarcely so firm, having dropped two per cent. since the last business in the stock was reported. A few small lots of Steamboats have changed hands to-day at 205, and there are further sellars. Punjoms havė gradually dropped to 10 and are weak at that figure. Nothing else has come under our observation..
