AUCKLAND STOCK AND SHARE .MARKET. | V (.MR. H. P. STARK.) An average business done in the Share market this week at current rates notwithstanding tlie fact that New Zealand Bank shares .are quoted in London at £8 and £9 ; premium on £6 paid up, this market has not experienced any alteration of last week s quotations, the half yearly report will shortly be issued and it is anticipated that it will prove the most satisfactory yet made. Some enquiries after Coromandel Gold Mining Shares have been effected but few transactions, holders fealing’ very sanguine that this company’s ground is equally as rich as Kelly’s Claim, or No. 5 adjoining. The following are quotations of last business done.
