LOCAL bWFll'l'IJ<}i.-A COMPARISON I OF PRICES. from an inveitor • point of view, the r Ju»t concluded mui* be regarded as «»ti«factory, In alinoxt every department there has been a subac-itial hie in the value of local owtiritiee, and the improvrmenta that have taken place abow every prospect of being maintained. In Rails particularly there i. cause for gratification. AH the Barry Stocks have largely appreciated, the UtxbYfted stock ihowing a rile of over twenty point* on the year. In July the price roee to 300, but on the increase of the Bank- rate in &.ptot'r there MM a g ner&l slump. in whioh all Wk- hi)fh-<)M< and, 1 or& particu- larly, gilt-edged wtirit" differed. For & time the market was in a state of chaoa, but, confidence baring been once more rietozvd, there was a revival, and in many caxe* the quotation* more than recovered the lone* stio. tained in the middle of September. Taff Vale Ordinary Stock, which was cjuoted at 79 in Januxry, rose to 94 in June, and, notwith. standing the heavy (lecreaxc in traffic roositail, still 1Ib<7w. an improvement of four poirts on the year. Rhyniney Stock, as ucua], has been the (ubject of the groatent fluettationn. At the comrnencenMnt of the ,r the itock wa* quow at 260, and < (teady advjwe took place until tho fate of the Amalgamation Bill beoame known. TIwoo. heavy altimp ot over tirenty point* octHirred, but the fall waa olll tempo- rary, and the price has remained About 270 erer sinoe. Preference and debenture utockj all (how mibetaotial adrarkts, aod what fluc- tuation* have taken place have not been of a viok-M nature. Baokt and Gae Stock* mark an improvement, and a rile ball alao taken place in corporation *took*. notwithatonding the fact thaA money now 2 per cent, deeper than it was at the commencomerrt of thevear, Coal and Iron Shares thow little chw.ge. Some of the hio-prieed eecuritie* have lost a trifle, and the more ipeculative ahare* ve gained a frac- tion. but the tendencv generally ha. been •teadr. In the M.iøroell&.lH>(1)8 &clÎ<1II the flue- tuation* have been more due to market opera- tiOM than the inflii«nc« of trade, and, with few <Mception<t. a (light advanoa taken place all round.
