The above, as we have stated, are the closing prices of the day. They are the prices at the last business transactions. But it is to be
understood, that there is generally a difference of in the Stock Exchange between the prices a person can sell at, and those he can buy at,
the former being less than the latter. The prices obviously include the sum paid for the Share; and therefore the difference between them
and the price paid on the Share is the premium or discount of the Share. Where there are blanks no business was done. We have carefully
corrected the list of the number of Shares wherever we could; but should any errors be left, we shall immediately correct them when
pointed out.
