MONEY MARiLET. [THREEPENCE. tieing for loans on mortgage, for not less than five years, at 31 per cent. per annem ; and the Leeds Northern and Eastern Union for loans on debentures at 4 per cent. per annum. The shares of the Blyth and Tync Railway Com pany are ordered to be cfflcially marked. The respectus is issued of the Bombay, Baroda, and Genteel India Railway Company, with a pro posed capital of 4,500,0001., in 201. shares, of which two-thirds only are to be issued in the first instance. The object is the construction of a trunk line of rail way to connect Bombay with Agra and Central India by way of Surat, Bared', and Neemuch, and the Valleys of the Mhye and the Chumoul, and thus to form a junction between the bunk line of the East India Railway Company and the Presidency of Bombay; and also a line from Surat along the Valley of the Taptee, into the cotton districts of Candeish and Beret and the coal and mineral districts of the Nerbudds , together with such branches as the in terests of the adjacent districts may require. No call is to be made until after the completion of the surveys, and the final approval of the home and Indian governments, from the latter of which the company hope to obtain a guarantee on the capital required. 'the report of the Governor-General of India is in favour of the projected line, and it in ' stated that the East India Company have guaranteed the promoters of the company the expenses incurred in the necessary surveys. Another new project of the week is the New Zea land Bank, for which it is proposed to raise a capital of 250,000/., with power to double that amount. The principal establishment of the bank is to be fixed in London, and a local committee is to be appointed in each province of New Zealand. Should the sanction of the authorities not he obtained, and the privilege of limited lability be coniequently withheld, the directors state that the deposir. of V. per share, after deducting the. expenses, will be returned to the shareholders. Australian Agricultural shares were a shade flat ter to-day, closing at 34 to 36. North and British Australasian were also more offered; other land shares were dull. Australian Bank shares were the turn cheaper. Victoria Dock shares (61. paid) mark 21 prem. Netherlands Land were flatter. The shares of the two French Water Companies were in active, and nominally quoted pa: to 1 prem. Annexed are the latest reports from continental bourses, as received by Mr. Renter's express : Amsterdam, Friday, closing prices : Duren Four per Cents., 931 ; ditto Two-and-a-lialf per Cents., 63 9-16 ; Spanish Deferred Three per Cents., 231; the Old Three per Cents., foreign, 47 15-16 ; the Coupons, 6 9-16; Austrian Five pi.

The English stock market this morning again showed considerable heaviness, mainly owing to the unsatisfactory Bank return, and to considerations connected with the harvest. In the afternoon, how ever, there were some considerable purchases of stock, and the market closed with more firmness of tone at yesterday's range. The confirmation given by the Moniteur of this morning of the acceptance of the note of the Vienna Conference by the Porte with some "unimportant modifications,' was much canvassed, and did not seem to impart additional strength to the market, being interpreted in many quarters as arguing a further postponement of the settlement of the difficulty. Consols opened 974 to 98, declined to 971, and finally closed 08 to for money and the Bth Sept., or the same as yesterday. The official business report ;n -eludes :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 983, 971, 983; ditto for account, Bth Sept., 983 974, 98, k. Three per Cent. Reduced, 981, 4. Three and-a-Quarter per Cents., 1011, 101, 3. Bank Stock, 2271. The business in Exchequer Bills was at is. dis. to Is. prem. India Bonds were quoted 15a. to 20s. prem. Business in the foreign stock market was almost suspended. Quotations generally showed flatness, especially for the speculative descriptions, such as Mexican, Spanish, and Granadian, but there were no dealings calculated to have any material effect upon prices. At 3 o'clock Mexican Bonds were quoted 263 to I; Peruvian Deferred, 59 to GI ;Spanish Deferred, 231 to 3 ; the Committee's Certificates, (11 to per cent.; Granada Active 23 to 24 ; ditto Deferred, 93 to 10. The list of sales is limited to :—Buencia Ayres Six per Cent. Bonds, 65. Granada De ferred Bonds. 9f. Mexican Three per Cents., 264. Portuguese Four per Cents., 45. Spanish New Deferred Three per Cents., 231. Although this was not a market day, transactions continued in corn, and it was reported that 2s. per quarter above the advanced rates of yesterday was offered for Russian wheat. THIS DAY.—Two O'CLOCK. The funds are bettor to-day, and though business is quiet, prices have experienced a further rally of per cent. Consols opened 98 to 1-„ and the present quotation is 98,t to Z. In the Stock Exchange, at tention is chiefly engaged with the share-settling, which, however, proves a very light one. The Three per Cents. Reduced mark 98; to 99; the Three and-a-Quarter per Cents., 101; to Z; India Stock, 257; Exchequer Bills, 2a. prem. The foreign stock market seems rather firmer, but the transactions are so limited that prices are not much changed. Mexican Bonds are quoted 26: to ; and Spanish Deferred, 231 to I. Dutch Fours mark 99; ditto Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 65 to ; Equador, 5; Granada Active, 23; ditto Deferred, 91; Greek (Blue), 7; ; Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 101 Z ; Sardinian, 96i.

Our list includes 20,353 ounces of gold by the James Alexander, and 7,230 ounces by the Emigrant, both from Port Phillip; 10,431 ounces by the Island Home, from Geelong; 30 ounces by the Cambodia,from Sydney ; 491,200d01e. by the Asia, from New York; and 10,0001. worth of silver by the Caledonia ' from Hamburg. The Wash ington has also brough t over some specie from New York, but it is not yet known if she has any for this market. The total value of the week's imports ap pears to be about 284,00 W., of which 176,0001. is in Australian gold. The Custom-house statement of the shipments of the precious metals direct from London during the week ending Thursday last, includes 26,902 ounces and 8,0001. in gold, and 19,600 ounces of silver, re presenting an aggregate value of about 117,00 W. With the exception of 8,0001. in gold to the Mauri ties, the whole of these supplies was despatched to various parts of the Continent. The account in de tail is as follows :—Gold coin : To Hamburg, 12,930 ounces; to Belgium, 3,450 ounces • to Boulogne, 50 ounces; to the Mauritius, B,OOW. Gold bars: To Hamburg, 6,153 ounces; to Belgium, 3,500 ounces ; to Boulogne, 510 ounces; to Rotterdam, 309 ounces.' Silver coin : To Hamburg, 400 ounces ; to Dunkirk, 400 ounces ; to Boulogne, 1,100 ounces. Silver bars : To Boulogne, 3,100 ounces; to Hamburg, 2,600 ounces; to Dunkirk, 12,000 ounces. The other shipments reported to us include about 30,0001. in coin . by the Braziliera, for the Brazils; 55,0001. in spews by the Douro, for Smyrna and Constantinople ; 3,0851. by the Iberia, for Oporto and Lisbon; and 3 , 8401 . by the Faith, for Africa. The ascertained exports of the week thus amount to nearly 210,0001. There have been no shipments of coin to Australia. The drain to the continent, how ever, via the Kentish ports, has continued, especially during the latter half of the week ; and to-day there was an active demand for gold for the continent, stimulated by the lower quotations of exchange. In consequence of the decline in the Russian exchange, gold is also being despatched to that quarter. On the whole, it would appear that the drain is likely to continue, and besides ab sorbing the supplies from Australia, to promise a further considerable reduction in the stock held by' the Bank of England. For the last eight weeks the Bank's stock has been steadily diminishing, and the aggregate reduction during this period is 1,493,496 L, or at the rate of 186,6871. per week. It may . be as well to repeat that this result—which is certainly a very remarkable one, in face of the large receipts from Australia—is mainly due to the anticipation of a very deficient harvest, which induces, as usual, vast operations in corn in the ports of every producing country. The magnitude of the threatened evil is certainly increased by the fact that deficiency of the crops is not confined to our own island. France, and several other European states which ordinarily assist in supplying the consump tion of Great Britain, are in the same predicament as ourselves, and are competing with us in the corn markets of the Baltic, the Black Sea, and America. It is to be feared that this com bined demand will rise the prices of breadstuff to a considerably higher range than we have of late been used to ; and it is almost needless to point out that in such case the effect produced upon the current of the Iprecious metals and the money market will be cone sposdingly increased. As it becomes a point of Interest to be informed as to the supplies against which the continental demand must be mainly met, we annex a statement of the quantities of Australian gold known to be on the way to this country : Gold on board.
