The Liverpool Colonial Produce Market to-day
continued quiet but firm.

SLGAR.—We have no change to notice. 110
hhds Demerara are reported at 37s to 38s, 4,500
bags Bengal at 46s to 49s for Cossipore, and 45s
to 49s for Benares, and 4,600 mats unclayed
Manilla at 338 6d per cwt from the quay.

MOLASSES.—There are no sales to notice.

.10d per gallon proof.

COFFEE.—We have only to notice 25 tierces
Jamaica at 68s to 86s, and 100 bags fine unwashed

IticE.—We have had rather more doing. 4,000

600 tons new Necransie, to arrive, at 10s 6d per

The Liverpool Provisions Market to-day was
quiet, and prices variable.

BEEF.—At a decline of 2s 6d per tierce the
principally ex
sales of Beef are of an extensive character—over
1,500 tierces having beentaken,
ship. The continued large arrivals have a
depressing effect on the market.
PORK is slow this.week ; the advance asked
for old checks business, and new moves only in
retail parcels.
BACON.—The demand for Bacon is not so good,
and where sales are pressed a slight reduction is
submitted to, but holders generally are very firm.
LARD is again lower, without leading to activity.
Sales to the extent of about 50 tons are reported.
CHEESE sells at extreme prices, and there is no
stock here.

yV
BUTTER is in better demand, but the difference
in price between fine quality and ordinary
increases daily, the range now being fully 40s
per cwt.
TALLOW.—At the reduced rates there is more
doing in Tallow.

The Freight Market is less animated, owing to
the abundance of tonnage offering for the East ;
outward rates are lower, and merchants are
reluctant to operate, as their requirements are
well supplied, and they are anticipating a further
fall in the rates. Homewards rates are firm, but
there is rather less inquiry for tonnage. Timber
Freights are brisk, and a large number of ships
have been taken from Quebec, at from 32s to 34s
and from the lower ports at 75e to 82s 6d per

LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING.

The LONDON MARKET for ENGLISH SECURITIES,
to-day, was rather firmer, and an improvement of
per cent. has taken place. Little business going
forward, Stock Exchange wearing a dull appear-
ance. Attention is chiefly directed to prepara-
tions for Monday's settlement in shares and foreign
stocks.

The Funds closed at the following prices :--
Consols, Money
,„
_Account
Exchequer Bills
Bank Stock 224 6
Three per Cents . .•

The following appeared in our second edition
of yesterday :

The Times city article controverts the idea that the
recent pressure in the money market is in some way to
be traced to the action of the Bank in refusing accom-
modation to the discount houses.

The stock market opened this morning with a very
settled appearance, but the measure of the Bank, instead
of leading to _a further decline, caused a favourable
reaction, and prices closed,with an appearance of more
steadiness than has been observable for two or.three days.
There has been rather less pressure in the discount mar-
ket, and at the Bank the applications were not nearly
equal to those of yesterday. The joint-stock banks have
raised their allowance on deposits to 4 per cent. For
sums below £5OO, however, the London and Westmins-
ter give only 3. The discount houses allow 4 per
cent. for money at call, and 4i with a few days notice.
There was no withdrawal of gold of any consequence
from the Bank.—Times.

As usual, the alteration at the Bank had been antici-
pated in the Stock Exchange. In the morning, the
funds underwent a fresh decline of per per cent., but soon
after the rise in the Bank rate had transpired, a recovery
took place to yesterday's final quotations, at which the
market closed with steadiness. The share markets were
likewise dull in the morning, and firmer in the afternoon.
British railway stocks were particularly strong, the
effect of the rise in the value of money being neu-
tralised by the remarkable increase in the traffic, holders
abstained from selling. Notwithstanding the rise in
the rate, the condition of the general money market is
quite as unsettled as it was before. Only choicest short
paper was negotiable to-day at 5 per cent., the terms
demanded in other instances being 51 to 6 ad upwards.

After the raising of the Bank rate yesterday the rail-
way market improved on purchases to close speculative
accounts for a fall. The late decline appears in some
cases to have brought the public in as buyers.
