MONEY MARKET-2HIS DAY.

Two o'CLoox.

The English stock market continues extremely
deficient in business, and prices are quite unchanged.
Consols remain steady, at 91/ to 3 for money and
the 6th Sept. The Three per Cents. Reduced have
been dealt in at 911 to 92; the New Three per Cents.
at 921 to / ; Bank Stock at 2161 to 216; India
Stock at 233; Exchequer Bonds, 1858, at 100 k;

The advance established in the price of sugar this
week is about Is. per cwt. A sale of 39,883 baskets
of Java sugar is declared by the Dutch Trading Com-
pany for the 20th September. Rine has also risen
daring the week nearly 6d. per owt., and saltpetre
Is. 6d. to 2s. per cwt. The Dutch Trading Company
hays advertised their annual sales of spice for the
2nd October. _ _

The impression generally entertained here that
the five millions and upwards derived from the new
Turkish loan will be almost entirely sent away in
gold appears to be, to a great extent, unfounded.
Advances, it seems, bad already been made hero to
the Ottoman government in anticipation of the loan,
and a considerable proportion of the first instalment
of half a million sterling may be said to
have been expended in this country for military
accoutrements of various kinds. Under present cir-
cumstances it is believed that a large portion of the
loan will be expended in England on behalf of the
Ottoman government, and the amount to be remitted
in specie proportionably diminished.
The Emigration Commissioners will receive tenders
on the 30th inst. for the hire of two ships to convey
emigrants respectively to Adelaide and Moreton Bay,
and to be ready for passengers between the 13th and
22nd October. _ _ _ _

The Admiralty have accepted the ships John Mew-,
terman, Campordown, Britain, and Baretto Junior,
for the conveyance of stores to the Crimea.
The Admiralty have engaged the Hamburg
(steamer) and the John Bull (sailing vessel) ea regular
transports.
Advice* front St. Petersburg, of the 16th inst.,
quote the exchange on London at 384 to 36 7-16 dia.
'About 2,000 casks of tallow had been taken for trans-
mission overland, at 110 to 112 ro., and about 1,000,
casks at 106, deliverable at Twer.
Application has been made to the Stock Exchange'
Committee to fix a settling day for Ardennes Ratl-
way shares, and for the new shares of the Oriental,
Gas Company.
A meeting of the holders of Venezuelan Bonds is
convened by the Committee of Spanish American
Bondholders for the 30th inst.
The prospectus is issued of the East Suffolk Rail-
way Company, with a capital of 600,0001., in 101.
shares. The object is the extension of railway an-
commodation to the country lying between Ipswich
and Halesworth. In addition to a main line between
Woodbridge and Halesworth, the company propose
to apply for powers to purchase the Halesworth
and Haddiscoe Railway, and to connect them-
selves with Yarmouth and Lowestoft by branches
from Haddiscos and Boccie', thus obtaising,
in connexion with the Ipswich and Woodbridge line,
an independent route from Ipswich to Yarmouth
and Lowestoft, shortening the distance by 26 and 30
miles respectively. It is mentioned that an offer has
been made by competent contractors to complete the
whole of the line, branches and stations, for 10,0001.
per mile, and that the directors have an offer from
Sir S. M. Pito, Bart., to lease the line for 14 years,
at 6 per oent. per annum.
Relative to the market for American stocks, Mr.
E. F. Satterthwaite reports as follows :
The market in London for American railroad bonds km
since our last been dull ; the disposition to buy appears t•
have received a cheek, which we attribute to the tending
of money to become d . The business during the
antume, en the leading lines of railway, is confidently ex-
pected to be very remunerative, which will no doubt lead
to a great demand for their bonds for investment, and eeon
sequent enhancement in value. At the present quoted rates
at which many first-class bonds can be bought in Londe.
they offer marked advantages over the bonds of oar English
railway companies. The advantage to the stockholder is
sound Americas railroads is, however, still more marked.
The dividendsjast paid by the New York Central, Michigan
Central, and Beading, of 4 per ant., by the Penwylvania
of 3 per cent., by the Michigan Southern of 6 per cent. for
the past half-year, compare very strikingly with the miser
able dividends of 1 to 2, or even 21 per cent., paid by our
lendiag English lines. The roads above mentioned us all
melt eMabliseed, having been in operation several years.

Total
The large increase in the private securities attests
the activity of the demand for money, which was
stimulated by the necessity of making 10 per cent.
deposit upon the applications for the Turkish loan.
The augmentation in the private deposits is explained
by the fact that the deposits on this loan made by
subscribers through Melon. Palmer and Co. were
paid into the Bank of England. The Item of coin
and bullion shows a decrease, but not of large amount.

FIIDAT EVIIXINO.
The English funds remain perfectly stationary in
price, with a very limited business. The market
to-day was totally devoid of any feature of interest.
The money market maintains the gamier appearanos
lately noticed.
Consols scarcely varied throughout the day from
yesterday's closing quotation of 911 to 1 for money
and the 6th September. The official business report
is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money,
911, 911; ditto, for moonlit, 6th September, 911, 911.
Three per Cent. Reduced, 911, 921, 911. New Three
per Cents., 921, 921. Long Annuities, expiring in
Jan., 1860, 4 ; ditto, 30 years, Oct. 1859, 31. Bask
Stock, 2161, 216, 215 ; ditto, for account, 215.
The foreign stock market was also quiet. The scrip
of the new Four per Cent. guaranteed Turkish loan
maintained 21 to 21 prem. in the morning, bat had
receded at the close to 21 to 21 prem. The transac-
tions in the Six per Cent. stock were more limited
than for some time past, and the price
closed rather lower thin yesterday, at
fi 93/ to 94.
The corn market to-day was again rmer, and au
advance of la. to 2r. per quarter was generally
asked, so that last Monday's decline may be said to
have been recovered. The supply of English corn
at market is very small, the farmers being too much
occupied with reaping to oome to market. The
arrivals of foreign corn into London this week have
also been extremely small, comprising only 1,230
vs. Cl wheat, 2,960 sacks of flour, and 4,410 qrs. of
oafs. Buyers for the Continent have oome forward
this week, owing to the firmness of some of the Con-
tinental markets, and a large business has been done
in floating cargoes, chiefly for that quarter. At the
same time, the arrivals of grain laden vowels off the
°oast have increased, and amount sines last Friday to

me Iwo than 23 cargoes of wheat and 19 of lodine
seem.
At the meeting of the General Screw Steam' Ship.
*ig Company, held yesterday afternoon, the report el
die directors was adopted. Some little dispoeitimr.ap.
pared to be manifested in the early stage of the pro-
ceedings to revive the antagonistic feeling of the
shareholders, bat it wee suppiemed. A return of 24
4S capital account out of the insurance fund, besides
a dividend of .5 per cent., was declared.

MURDER AT GLASOOTl.—lintobesontown Bridge
was last night the scene of an atrocious murder, arising out
of • quarrel of which the following are the main facts. Ws
stated en the previous day that a silly report, which had
got abroad about a home being Masted in Buchan•street.
Gortsals,had, at intervals, since Sunday eight, been the
mesas of coliseting together a gaping crowd in that locality,
composed mostly of idle and worthless characters. In the
evening these crowds have Men generally more numerous;
and last night this crowd continued in and around Buchan-
street as usual. Shortly after nine o'clock a band of dim
orderly lads in the crowd began maliciously to amuse thew
'elver by stretching a rope across the street, laughing hear-
tily at lbws who stumbled over it in passing. Among
others who thus stumbled, was a young man of 21 years of
age, named Bernard M'Aulay, a miner, residing in Male-
street, Goebel.. He resented the trick played off upon bins,
by knocking down what appeared to him to be one .1
the tprincipal aggressors. This person, finding one
worsted, slunk off to Bridgegatr, and, with come accom-
plices, set out to wreak vengeance on M'Aulay. They en-
countered him on Butchesontown Bridge, and threw stones
at him; and when M'Aulay saw they were bent on assault-
ing hies, he put Linnet on the defensive, and a scuffle en-
sued, in which M'Aulay wee stabbed with a knife or other
sharp instrument in the left brims); few inches below the
nipple. Be immediately fell, and • aaeeiiaats made their
escape. He was at once conveyed to the shop of Dr. Pear-
son in Adelphi-street, where be was found to be dying,
and breathed his last almost immediately afterward., giving
utterance to an ezprcesion to the affect that it was Fleaher
who did ft. Two men were apprehended shortly after the
murder, but at two o'clock this morning the actual mur-
derer was believed to be still at large.—Nortet British MA
of Thursday.
THE BRISTOL MURDER.—Up to the time at which
we write, the police have been unable to procure any eel-
donee calculated to throw lightest the mysterious affair, and,
as is always the case, rumour, in the absence of anything
authentic, has invented a hundred idle stories. The ten-
dency of all the reports current is to impute guilt to one or
both of the poor child's parents. but we must cookie our-
selves that we can see nothing it say of the established
facts, nor did we see nor eau we learn of anything in the
saintliness demeanour of either of them, which warrants
the sospieion.—Beestol Mercury of this day.
