Hamburg letters of Saturday state that the rate of
discount was maintained at 81 to 8 per cent., at which
rate, however, there was no difficulty in placing good
bills. Quantities of silver were still in coarse of

transmission to Sweden and Francs. The tighter
tendency of the money market was also aggra-
vated by the withdrawal, on Berlin account,
of large sums of money raised on deposit
of muses of stock and railway shares. This
operation, it seems, had already been carried on
at Berlin as far as practicable. In face of this dis-
turbance in the money market, prices of securities
and goods in Hamburg were fairly maintained, en-
swaging a belief in the general soundness of trade.
At the same time, it is anticipated that a continuance
of this high value of money will ere long induce
realisations. Bills were much pressed for sale, and
the rate on London had declined # of &whining.

aline off per amt was finally established. Specula-
tive sales have bees enenzard by the idea that the
existing difficulty between the British and United

flatness revelled on the Paris Bourse this afternoon,
