LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING.
The LONDON MARKET for ENGLISH STOCKS to-
day opened flatly at a further slight decline in the
value of Consols, but has since become rather
firmer ; business, however, is extremely limited.
Consols were first quoted 95 to 1 for money and
account, and are now at 95 to k for next month.
Reduced Three per Cents have been dealt in at
93k and I ; New Threes, 93t ands ; India Deben-
tures, 96t; Exchequer Bills, 9s and 7s pm., and
6s and 9s pm. for small.
The Funds closed at the following prices :
Consols Money

Exchequer Bills
Bank Stock
Three per Cents.

The following appeared' in our second edition
of Saturday :
The funds to-day were weaker and closed at a decline of I
to per cent. The Pais Bourse has simultaneously given
way. The share markets were likewise rather weaker this
afternoon, but the alteration in prices was not of much
importance. Little speculation is going forward now
that the course of foreign politics is surrounded by un-
certainty. The business at the discount office at the
Bank to-day was rather active. In the open market the
demand was not urgent, and good bills were readily
taken at 31, to 4 per cent. There were occasinal transac-
tions in the best short paper at 3.1.; for six months. how-
ever, 41-to 4i was asked.—Dairy News. • •
The English funds have shown diminished firmness
to-day. The market was not affected by any foreign
news ; but the distrust of France on the Italian question
increases, and the advises from the Paris Bourse are
dull. There has been a good demand for discount, and
at the Bank a fair amount of business has been done.
In the open market the general minimum is n. In the
Stock Exchange the rate for loans is 3 to 3i per cent.
In the foreign exchanges, this afternoon, there was no
important alteration. About £64,000 in refined gold
was taken to the Bank to-day. In the produce markets,
during the week, there has been little activity, and
prices have occasionally experienced a decline.—Tinaes.
In the LONDON MARKET for FOREIGN STOCKS
scarcely any business has been doing, and values
are substantially the same as at yesterday's'
official close. Original Turkish Bonds have been
negotiated at 75k, and new Sixes at 58. Mexi-
can Three per Cents. brought 21,1 and 211, and
Spanish Threes, 48k.
The LONDON RAILWAY SHLAAE•MARKET to-day

in prices. London and North Westerns are quoted
100 k and t ; Midlands, 116,1, and I; Gt. Westerns,
esi and I ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 104 ; and
, South Easterns, 84i and 85; India and Canada
