MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.)

FRESH ADVANCE IN THE BANK RATE
OF DISCOUNT.
Two o'CLooi.

The directors of the Bank of Zugland, at their
weekly court to-day, have raised the minimum rate
of discount from & per cent (to which it was ad-
vanced, from 4, as recently as Monday last) to 6
per cent.

- This step, having been to a great extent antici-
pated, has not produced much sensation either
in the Stock Exchange or in commercial circles
generally. The stock markets are dull, but
sales are not pressed, and there is an entire absence
of excitement. Consols, in which this is settling
day, have declined 1 per cent., and most of the
principal home railways to f per cent. Foreign
stocks are flatter, except Mexican and Turkish
Consolidds. The market for the shares in the new
projects is comparatively steady.
In consequence of the alteration at the Bank Of
Eng?end, the joint stock banks 'have this d►y
raised the rate allowed for deposits from 4 to 5
per seat., except that the:London and Westminster
Bank give only 4 per cent. on sums below 5004
The discount establishments will henceforward
allow 5 per cent. (instead of 4) for money "at call,"
and 51 (Instead of 41) at notice.
Consols are now quoted 921 to 1, with div., for
money, and 911 to 1, ex div., for the account
(Dec. 3). The official business report is as fol-
lows :-Three per Cent. Consols, for money, NI

"sewed" rupee paper, 1061 ; and Exchequer
Bills, 5e., 25., 78., die.
Spanish Passive Bonds are per cent. worse
than yesterday, at 331 to 34. Turkish Consolidis
better, at 484 to ; Mexican, fto 4 higher,
at 401 to ; and Greek, f worse, at 271 to 28. Other
foreign stocks are dull. Transactions are recorded
as follows :-Brazilian, 1001 ; ditto, 1852, 1858,
1860, 901, 91, 90 ; Egyptian, 991, 1001 ; ditto,

account, 57, ex div.
The Confederate Loan is steady, at 64 to 66 ; the
Portuguese at 11 to 11 prem. ; and the Brazilian at
die. to par.

International Financial shares are now quoted
4} to 4 prem. ; London Financial, 5} to 1 prem. ;
General Credit, 2} to 1 prem. ; Hudson's
Bay, 1} to 1} dis. ; Egyptian Trading,
1} to 2 prem. ; Privileged Bank of

Foui o'CLoca.

Consols are now quoted 921 t.. 14 iorniniTey,
and 91} to }, ex div., for the account, showing a
rise of } per cent., compared with the prices cur-
rent at 2 o'clock. No gold has been taken from
the Bank to-day for abroad.

It would appear that the great rise which
recently took plaoe in Mexican and Greek
Bonds, Turkish Coos°Lida, and some other MOO-
rifles which are currently dealt in on the Conti-
nental Bourses as well as here, caused large amounts
of these stocks to be imported and placed upon the
English market. It is consequently believed that
the amount of these securities now held here is
much larger than it was before the recent rise.
The introduction, also, of the two descriptions of
Spanish Internal debt, effected during the
last two months, has increased the supply of
non-dividend paying paper. This class of securities
—in which are included Greek and Mexican Bonds
—is the more affected by a stringent money mar
ket, because at such times they are the very first
in respect of which bankers draw iu those advances
which, for the sake of employing their balances,
they are so ready to make in an easy money market.
No business being done in the general market
yesterday in even the choicest bills below 5 per
cent., the demand turned with considerable force
upon the Bank of England, where the appli-
cations were yesterday heavy, the public pressing
for accommodation in the manner usually witnessed

when they anticipate an advance in the rate.
The enormous 6nm-2,830,0001—bid yesterday
within the official limits for the 400,0001. of
Government Bills on India shows how heavy is the
commercial demand for the means of remittance to
that quarter, and leads to the belief that the future
shipments of silver eastwards will be extensive.
The extension of the demand for money on the
Continent is indicated in the announcement that the
Bauk of Prussia has raised its rate for discount
of bills from 4 to 44 per cent.

The November drawing of the bonds for redemp-
tion at par of the Anglo-Turkish Loan of 1862
will not take place until after the conclusion of the
current account in foreign stocks.
The steamer Magdalena, from Brazil, has reached
Southampton, with 25,5731. in specie.
The Mexican dollars (about 20,0001.) by the last
packet were sold yesterday at ss.
sid ounce,. per
showing a rise of id. The advance is not caused
by any increased demand for China, but by the
smallness of the present supply.
The biddings for 40,00,000 rupees in bills on
India took place yesterday at the Bank of England.
The proportions allotted were :—To Calcutta,
22,00,000 rupees ; to Bombay, 16,00,000 rupees ;
and to Madras, 2,00,000 rupees. The miss/num
price declared was as before, viz. Is. 115 d. per
rupee on Calcutta and Madras, and Is. 11id. on
Bombay. The applications within the limits
amounted to 283 lace (2,830,0001.). Tenders on
Calcutta. at is. 110., will receive about 90 per
cent. ; no Bombay, at 2s. 0 d., about 28 per cent. ;
and on Madras, at Is. 111 d, all.

Annexed is an exact copy of the resolution men-
tioned yesterday u having been adopted by the
Stock Exchange Committee. with reference to the
allotment of shares in new undertakings : " The
committee of the Stock Exchange have passel a
resolution declaring that iu future the fifth para-
graph of role 128 shall stand thus : ' That not less
than two-thirds of the shares have been applied for
by, and allotted to the public, and the deposit paid
there Ai." By this resolution rule 128 is merely
altered by the addition of the words " to the pub-
lic." Now, it is a question as to what is meant by
" the public." If directors, promoters, and others
connected with the incubation of public companies,
are to be considered as comprised in the term, no
material alteration in the existing system would
appear tube compassed by the pres'nt resolution
of the committee. The vagueness of the expression
used is probably due to a sense of the difficulties
surrounding the subject.

The committee of the Stock Exchange have ap-
pointed to-morrow a special settling day iu the
shares of the Ao4lo-Austrian Bonk, which are to
be officially mark. The scrip certificates of
rt shares are now y foi delivery. It is also inti-
mated that, in accordance with the terms of the
prop us, and to enable the bank to commence
businesa forthwith, the third instalment of 21. per
scrip certificate is required to be paid by Tuesday,
the 10th inst.
The Stock Exchange Committee have decided
that the shares of the Loan, Treat, and Agency
Company of South Africa (Limited) shall be quoted
in the twice-a-week list, the impediment hitherto
interposed by reason of the inadequacy of the
amount of capital subscribed for having now been
removed. _

A special meeting of the London, Tilbury, and
Southend Railway Company is called for the 24th

meats and evidence as they may think necessary to
enable.them to report to the shareholders upon the
questions of tolls, working expenditure, legal obli-
gations, and such other as in the opinion, of the
said committee do or may aifectthe present or future
interests of the company."

With reference to the market for American secu-
rities, Mr. E. F. Satterthwaite reports ax follow! :
We have to report a very limited business in Amerman
securities in the London market during the past week, so
much so that only one trepanation hes been officially re-
corded on the Stock Exchange, in either Illinois or srie
shares, within that time. The market, however, clams rather
firmer, and quotations remain almost without alteration,

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,

The inundated portions of the course showed
little or no improvement upon the °peeing day, and the

in, bower., has been a highly succeeds' am, the com-

WOOLWICH, Nov. 4,
The Ranger, screw gun vessel, Commander
Wratialaw, which arrived last week from the west coast of
Africa, is ordered to be paid off on Tuesday next. Although
a new ship, the pelmet being her Ant term of commission,
her boilers are in a very defective ooadition, sad she was
compelled to beat up the river from the Downs under sail.
She has taken two good prizes, whim oft the slave pro•
volitive service, and her crew will share a comidezable
amount of prize money. When at Cape Coast Castle the
commander of the Ranger forwarded a gunner sad 27 calm
crew to assist the authorities in suppress* am outbreak oa

An eye-witness of the above catestophe, William Hughes,
as intelligent man of isobar, and steward on board the vessel,
who arrived in town last sight, states that he end ell the

ception of the pilot gad the Ant and sewed watch, whet

the neighbouring compartments shrieking "fire." This im-

this it WM necessary to lift up the hatches, when ethic-
taaataly the wind, which was blowing bard at the time,
fanned the flames on all sides of the bold into a sheet el
An. Seeing the terrible peril the Alp and pesmsgers
were *ow exposed to, Captain Hovey, regardless of his
two minima risk, gave ordess to the mew to
lower the two lifeboats, into which the peagespre
were let down by ropes. These, however, were insufßaent
to contain pemeogers aed crew, sad unfortunately two other
boats had, by some accident, drifted away. Rocketa ware
then fired as signals of distress for help from shore, and a
steam tog-boat aims to the name, bat unfortunately from

burning ship and took off the remaining peessagers and the
ship's company. The captain and chief officen, who re-
maimed on desk lest, this got into the lugger, and the
steem-teg towed all to Harp* whloh was reached by about
half-pest three yesterday morning. Within • very abort'
period the tames were aescribed as "gushing out" from all

This was an appeal from an order of Mr. Commissioner
Holroyd. It appeared that James Grant, of the firm of
Grant and Ow, For bailie merchants, was ad ndioaled

to the bankrupt. The first dividend of 61 in the pound
was declared under the bankruptcy in 1720, and was re-
ceived by Oswald. la 1798, James Great, the bankrupt,
having previously obtained his (1111iiikat" purchased his
debt from Oswald aad as assignment of it was esecurd to
a Mr. Shaw, to mist for Grant. James Grant died in 1816,
and his will wee proved by his widow sad his brother,
Charles Over, in 1418. From that time till 1830, when
Charles Grant, the survivor of James Grant's executors died,

order for the payment of the dividends, deducting 5004 end
