SHARE REPORT.

Mesars, Benjamin and Polts, in their report, dated Friday, the 9th of February, state;—

In the interval sinos our last report of the 2nd February, more business has been put through in Investment Stocks at rates which show a good return on present dividend bosis. Owing to the exchange and consequent home selling, many cherp purchases have been made. The reports that have been issued by our local Companies up to the present have all been favourable, and in most cases inpressed dividends have been paid. Speculative stpoks have declined somewhat, principally on sccount of selling for the February Settlement, which takes place on the 23rd instant,

The Shanghai market continues dull, and until financial conditions improve there, there is not likely to be any move. Flantation rub- bar comes through at 3/2, market firm.

MARINE & FIRE INSURANCES-With the exception of males of Hongkong Fires at 8387), no business is reported. Unions can be obtained at $900 and Cantons at $375, and both could probably be obtained at less.
