LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING.

In the LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE to-day
the Funds again were firmer, and a further im-
provement of -I- per cent took place. Attention
was chiefly directed to the market for British
Railway Stoeks, where the settlement commenced
to-day. The arraogetnents for the adjustment of
the account were accompanied by a fresh rin of
1 per cent in Midland, and 2 per cent ,in Lanca-
shire and Yorkshire Stock. There was also an
improvement in Grand Trunk of Canada.
The market closed at the following prices :

The following appeared in oar later editions
of yesterday :

Gold has been drained from Malta, partly for Sicily
and Naples, on account of its being more convenient for
hoarding than silver; but the greater quantity has been
taken for the Levant.

The Herald says it is generally assumed, unless
further advices from the United States should prove
unfavourable, that the Bank will on Thursday reduce
the rate.

The Times reports that in the railway market yester-
day the chief fluctuations were in Midland and Lanca-
shire and Yorkshire ; the former advanced in the
morning to 134, but some sales subsequently caused a
decline to 1334 to -I Lancashire and Yorkshire was in
active demand in the afternoon, especially on provincial
account, and improved nearly 14 per cent. on a reported
traffic arrangement between this company and the
Midland. Other stocks were mostly higher, except
Great Northern, which receded 1 per cent. ; Eastern
Counties also flat.

The confident expectation that a reduction will be
made in the Bank rate of discount at the weekly court
on Thursday prevents applications from being made in
the interval. Out of doors the transactions are on terms
considerably below the Bank minimum. In the Stock
Exchange loans on Government securities can be ob-
tained at 3 per cent. The English funds opened with-
out reaction from the sudden fall of 71-, per cent. which
occurred yesterday afternoon, but the public effected
purchases during the day, and the market subsequently
manifested considerable firmness and closed with a very
good appearance. In the Foreign Exchange the rate
on Hamburg was slightly lower. Bills on Austria were
much offered, and the prices obtained showed increased
mistrust in the finances of that empire. About £3,000
in gold was taken from the Bank. Gold is 1-10 per
cent. dearer in Paris than in London, and not quite 1-10
per cent. dearer in Hamburg than in London. A reac-
tion of nearly 7, per cent. occurred on the Paris Bourse,
which has been agitated, and a number of political
rumours have been current.—Times City Article.
The funds to-day showed rather more firmness, bnt
the improvement in prices scarcely exceeded 1-16 per
cent., business being very languid. The share markets
were likewise firm, and in some instances a slight im-
provement occurred. The main feature was a sudden
rise of 17, per cent. in the Lancashire and Yorkshire
Railway. This was in answer to a similar movement
in the provincial markets, caused by a report that a
traffic arrangement has been concluded between the
Midland and Lancashire and Yorkshire companies.
There were also some large speculative purchases, com-
puted at 40,000 or 50,000 of Midland railway stock for
the. new accounts, but owing apparently to a counter-
:hen supply, there was no advance in the price of this
k Great ease prevails in the discount market.
The best bilis were taken to-day at 5 per cent., and
scarcely, any applications were made to the Bank of
England. Indeed thinness of business at that estab-
lishment was extreme. Applicants are waiting to see if
a reduction in the minimum will be made on Thursday;
but it is not the custom of the establishment to retrace
