TIM CROPS IN TIM NORTH OF IRELAND.—Dar- Ieg the pest week there bee again been a peat deal of wet weather. This has interfered is some measure with the harvesting operations, which bad been commenced, and mode considerable progress. In some districts the rain, it is said, will result is loss to the fanners so far as the cereal crops are concerned. The farmers in the north—and we believe throughout the country _ge nerally—permit their grain to be overripe Wore reaping. When the ratio has caught the oats sod wheat in this position, there will be difficulties in the way of securing either in inch good moditios as they would have beat had they bean cut before the wet set in. The complaints on this point, however, are not numerous. The reports are for the most part highly favourable respecting the quality sod yield of the grain ; and, with the return of dry weather, the produce is expected to be saved in first rate conditioo. The fist and green cropsof every description lavaboes greatly benefited bye plentiful supply of moisture. AU through the summer the drought wee a source of great anxiety as regarded the green mops. and particularly as to the flax. The former did not flourish, and the latter could not be steeped and *matched for want of water. There are sow no further fears on this genre. The turnips, potatoes, mantels, aftergrass, &c., are all improving in ap pearsoce, and the flax is tieing hurried through the steeping process. A great deal of it has been scotched and sent to market, and the reports as to its quality fully bear out the sta , emeota respecting it in the early portion of the season. As to the potatoes, in no year wince the great blight has that crop been planted so extensively, and Dever nines that gloomy period has there been so magnificent a crop, either as to quantity or quality.—/Vorthern Whig. BANK OF FRANCE. RISE IN THE RATE OF DISCOUNT. (sairma's xxiscaam.) PARIS, Sari. 9, Arrzazooz. The Bank of Frames has raised its rate of dis count from 6 to 7 per cent.,both for bills of exchange and securities. MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.) Two °Two,. The stock markets to-day are very dull, the un certainty which prevails with regard to the future course of the money market contributing to check purchases. The funds are quoted about the same as they closed yesterday. Many other securities, including some of the home railways, the specu lative foreign stocks, and financial shares, are rather lower. The discount market is quiet to-day, with plenty of money, but there is no disposition to transact business below 9 per cent, the bank minimum. In the Stock Exclisuge the supply has largely increased, owing partly to numerous investments by insurance companies and the public in Console, and the rate for short loans is nominal, at 5 to 6 per cent. At Paris to-day, according to Mr. Reuter's tele gram, the Three per Cent. Renter opened at 66fr. 67c ., being about the same as yesterday. Consols are now quoted 871 to I for money, and 87 11-16 to 13-16, or 871, for the account (Oct. 11). The official business report is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 874, 1 , ; ditto, for account, 871, 1 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 851 ; New Three per Cents., 854, 4,4; Bank Stock, 242 ; India Five per Cent. Stock, 1031, 104 ; Five-and-a-Half per Cent. " enlaced " rupee paper, 110. A reduction of eto per cent. has taken place in several of the speculative Soreign stocks. The present quotations are annexed, viz., Greek Bonds, 231 to I ; Spanish Passive, 301 to 1 ; the Certificates, 131 to ; Mexican, 271 to 1 ; Confede rate, 791 to 801; Turkish of 1858, 681 to 69 ; ditto, 1862, 691 to 70 ; and the Conaolid4s, 60 to . Transactions are recorded as follows:—Brazilian, 1852, 1868, 1860, 851 ; ditto 1863, 86 ; Egyptian, 981, 99, ex div. ; Italian, for account, 661, ; Mexican, for account, 271, j; ditto 1864, 251 ; Portuguese, 1856, &c., for aocount, 471 ; Russian, 1862, 88 ; ditto 1864, 881 ; ditto, scrip, 4, Si prem. ; Sardinian, for account, 84 ; Spanish, for account, 491 ; ditto Passive, for account, 301, 1 ; Turkish, 1858, for account, 681, ex div. ; ditto 1862, for account, 70 ; ditto 1001.

A failure has been announced to-day in the Stock Exchange, but the amount involved is understood to be unimportant. Pons o'CLocK. Consols are fractionally firmer, at 871 to for money, and 871 to 1 for the account. 5,0001. in gold has been taken to the Bank. The last previous alteration in the Bank rate of discount was made on Thursday, the 4th ult., when a rise from 7 to 8 per cent. took place. The present measure has taken the oommercial public a good deal by surprise, as most persons failed to recognise in the imme diate features of the money market the necessity for additional measures of restriction. It is not diffi cult, however, to distinguish the motives by which the directors of the Bank are actuated. Their great desire is understood to be to bring about • substantial improvement in the general condition of the Bank accounts, and es this has not been accomplished to the extent desired by an eightper cent. rate, which has now been in force for a period of five weeks, a fresh " turn of the screw" is resorted to. The unfavourable quotations of Indian exchange received on Wednesday after noon, and the indications of a considerable drain of silver to the East, have probably contributed to the measure. A large amount of India six months' bills also came upon the market yesterday, partly in connexion, it is believed, with the payments for the heavy mass of treasure lately received from Mexico, and now in course of re-distribution, chiefly east wards. The most satisfactory feature at the mo ment is the calmness, and the entire absenoe of any feeling of vague alermorith which the present severe action of the Bank directors has been received. This is the more worthy of notice when it is borne in mind that the legitimate trade of the country must have no small difficulty in bearing the existing onerous rates of money—rates which must in many cases fully equal if not exceed the ordinary profits of business. It is to be hoped that the dispropor tionately high value of money now prevailing in this country, as compared with that in the chief continental cities, will, in addition to bringing for ward a larger supply of our home capital for em ployment in commercial channels, give a speedy and powerful impulse to the exchanges, and thus accelerate the existing flow of gold to the Bank of England. Ou the 4th of August, when the Bank rate we,s raised from 7 to 8 per cent., the coin and bullion were 12,877,4331., and the reserve of notes and 00111 5,598,4931. By last night's return the totals are, respectively, 12,970,4471. and 6,810,5821., showing in the former instance an increase of 93,0141., and in the latter an increase of 1,212,0891., during the five weeks. The large balances which the banking and finan cial establishments deem it prudent to bold avail. able in the present uncertain state of the money market, continue to find their way for employment for short periods in the Stock Exchange. The steamer Plantagenet has reached Liverpool from Vera Cruz with 89,0001. in specie. The steamer Magdalena will take to-day 75,2001. in gold (most of which was taken from the Bank yesterday) and 8,000/. in silver. The silver market is quiet, with little business, notwithstanding the rise in the Indian exchanges. The advance in the Bank rate of discount will tend to check the exports of bullion for the East, and it would appear that some amount of specie has been despatched to that quarter of late in anticipation of higher rates of exchange. The Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 4,0311. over last year ; the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln shire, an increase of 1,236/. ; the North Eastern, au increase of 7,0211.; and the Midland, an in crease of 3,7441. At the London office of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway the following satisfactory tele gram, dated Cincinnati,_ Augest 26,. has been re- . •. IF-- The third payment of 51. is to be made on the shares of the London Financial Association by the Lt October. The annexed is from the monthly hide tirades issued yesterday by Messrs.

North American Fan and Skins. —The annual autumn sales commenced with that the Hoene Bay Company, on the 29th ult. The diima es* fur, prices generally were firm, excepting for otter, martin, beaver, and first and second clams of raccoon, which have sold lower than last spring. The following, upon the silk market, is from the circular of Messrs. Durant and Co., dated yester day : We have bad a mouth of comparative quiet in silk, the particular meson of the year an.l high moss of prices in duoiog mummers. both home and continental. to limit their purchases as much as possible. Borne little asgeroess has been manifested during the last week to pun:bake the first arrivals of new silk from China, sad shout 700 bales have been sold at very full prices—generally at la. above our quotations of a month since. The stock of old silk is very small in all claims, both of China and Japan silk, and holders are very firm. Deliveries ars comparatively good. In Bengal silk a fair correct business wee doing at fall prices until the last few days : now we seem to have rather a check, but consumption has turned most satisfactorily upon this class. The return of the Bank of England for the week ending Wednesday, Sept. 7, compared with that for the previous week, allows the following changes : Circulation issue Circulation actin 20,809,865 lacrosae 71,765 Public deposits 6,022,373 lacrosse 206,631 Other deposits Government securities a tanking deportment 10,797,095 No clangs Othersecuritom in banking department Coin and bullion in both departments Beveo day sod other bolla 557.259 lee:ream 6,035 The beet 3.879,279 lemur 19,713 Notes in reserve Total reserve (notes & coin in tanking department) . 6,810.582 Decree's 81,351 These changes are not of the unfavour►ble cha racter that might have been expected from the sud den alteration made to-day by the Bank directors in their rate of discount. The coin and bullion are almost stationary, and the decline in the reserve is of no importance. The sidition to the private securities, representing loans, discounts, &c., is not large. 7011110 N OBLIOATII ill I rd.
