TO-DAY.

THE SHARE MARKET.

S'o'clock. Banks have changed hands to-day at 151 per cent. premium for the end of the month, and also at "155 for delivery on December 31st. In Steamboats some triding business has been arranged at 218 for the end of the present month, but there are further sellers and the stock is anything hut firm. Docks have been done at 351 and 36 for December. Luzons have maintained their position fairly well, although the buying has almost exclusively heen confined to one operator. Sales have been booked at 81 and 82, and there are now sellers at the latter figure. Punjoms have been done at 11 for cash and 11 for December additional shares are on offer at both those rates. Nothing else has came under our obsérvation.
