MONEY MARKET.

TVNIDATIIIII/10.
The Sallie stook market rimed with a firm ap-
pealing fibre said Compels vim. soon purchased at
the impend edge of 1001 he sash. As the hour
=tawhen the pmdinein of the government
b 41111111110Dly Abated there was the usual
ampegetien of members round the box which he
esenglin ea Inch occasions, but ho did not make his
. This imparted much discouragement to
Vatilakceet, and the price went gradually down to
11101, closing, however, better again at 100/ to 1 for
enemy, and 1001 to for the 12th August, being k
lower than the last price of yesterday. A rather
remarkable feature of the dives market was a rise in
the Three-and-a-Quarter simultaneously with a fall
hi the Three per Cent. Stock. The Three-and-a-
Quarter per Cents. were in strong demand, and ad-
vanced to 1064. The official business recorded is as
follows : Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 1001, 1,

baseassedings at the meeting of Venezuelan
to day were limited to the passing of
neeinliees expressive of the surprise and clia-
t of the bondholders at the breech
th committed by the government of the
lligablio in not appropriating the portion of
the customs duties solemnly agreed upon
to be set aside to meet the dividends on the foreign
debt. The non-adoption of
i the proposed plan for the
nscapitalisation of the coupons another grievance.
The dividends on the domestic debt have meanwhile,
been punctually paid, so that the bad faith of the
government and congress becomes the more glaring.
An urgent appeal to tier Majesty's Secretary of State
for Foreign Affairs was decided on, but it is doubtful
if this effectual interposition can be secured.
At the meeting of the St. Katharine Dock Com-
pany, held this day, the dividend declared was at
the rate of 21. per cent on the stock for the half year
ending the 30th June. The net earnings of the
company for the six months were stated at 46,2311.
The present pries of this stook is 87/, as stated in the
Btock Exchange official list. It was also resolved to
authorise the directors to carry into effect the altera-
tions and extensions proposed in the report, and to
raise the sums necessary for those purposes not ex-
ceeding 62,0001., either on debentures or on moot.
Me market for foreign exchanges again exhibited
a downward tendency this afternoon, the supply of
bills being extremely limited, and drafts in request
for remittances abroad. Short Paris was done at
25.26 to 274; ditto 3 months, at 25.45 to 471.
Amsterdam was as low as 12.01 for 3 months paper,
and Hamburg closed at 13.9 to 9.1. Frankfort re-
mained at 1201 to 121, nor did the exchanges on
Italy, Spain, and Portugal fluctuate sensibly. Aus-
trian paper was in somewhat better demand at the
lower quotation of 12 to 12.3 for Vienna, and 12.3 to
12.6 for Trieste.
The particulars of the railway. calls falling due be-
tween this date and the beginning of October, on far
es yet advertised, are as follows :

The following is a summary of the law of Cali-
fornia relative to protested bills of exchange:
The resent law relative to bills of exchange and promis-
sory notes pawed by the state of California provides that
the damage on bale of enhangeprotested for non-payment
elsewhere shall be se follows :—lt payable in either of the
United States east of the Bosky limntains, 15 per eent.
If payable in Europe or say foreign oosatry, 20 per sent.,
with interest from the time of demand. If the bill is Pay-
able in the carresey of a foreign country, the amount due
shall be determined by the rates of maws at the time of
demand, and exclusive of damages. The damage on bills
of exchange protested for aca-sceeptanoe shall be the same
as on these plowed for non-payment.
The p., of silver remains very firm, as the con-
thi demand continues. The supplies brought in
ig the Parana will probably be placed to-morrow.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.

MARK-LANE.-THIS DAY.

- - •
Our market was very thinly Attended to•day ; and as the
weather continues as fine a. could be wished for the grow-
ing crops, millers and dealers evinced but little disposition
to add to their stocks, and the business tranuctrd this
morning was, consequently, very limited, and the prices of
all articles must be considered nominally the same as on
Monday last.
