Continned ease and abundnnce are the prevailing features in the

rule at 11¢@114 “cent. per month. The outside requirement for
atocks and other speculative purposes is of no magnitude, and negotiatious are made without difficulty at 11¢@21¢ HP cent. per month.
Receipts of treasura from the interior, since Saturday last, amouuted
to $1,200,000, making an nggregate of 32,000,000 thus far during the

Monday’e steamer, and gold hars are selling at 820@830. Silver is

The product of all the mines on this coast, received through regular

We have heen requested to call ntteution to the new schedule of
commissions adopted hy the Stock and Uxchange Board, and to puhlish the 35th article of their hy-laws, as follows: “ Any member doing
business for less than the regular commissions, shall, on due conviction,
for tho first offense, be suspended for the term of ten (10) days, ond a
fine of one hundred ($100) dollars. Yor the second offense—suspeuded
for thirty (30) days, nnd n fine of two hundred ($200) dollars. For the
third offense—expulsiou from the board. All excise taxes upon the
sale of stocks shall he paid by the hroker. Also, it is fully nnd distinctly understood, that the coinmissions hereafter to be charged, shall
he upon all purchases and upon all sales, and that the full amount shall
he charged and no less sun received, except the principal or customer .
shnll hea hroker, belonging to some organized hoard of stock hrokcrs,
with whom a division of commission shall be allowed.” ‘The pennities
herein prescrihed aro severe, but just, and in view of the reduced scale
of commissions, henceforth there should he no ahntement of the regular
charges, except as above stated.
