• MONEY MARKET.

flaevarase =vim
The general reiThig of Ilia stook markets madame
decidedly in favour of a rally. Corsets at the close
were quoted 99k to 1, both for money and the ac-
count of 13th beptember--• quotation which repre-
'sent, the full advance of yesterday, but the bulk of
the business was transacted at higher rates, the price
at one time reaching 99k. In other stocks the rally
is also progreminz, and the railway market has ex-
hibited-a
decidedly improved tendency. The grand
point to which the attention of holders and specu-
lators in stocks and shares is now directed is the
state of the crops, as there can be no doubt that the
chief influence affecting prices will come
from this quarter. Now that the feeling of
alarm as regards the difficulty with America
has been allayed, a strong impression pre-
vails that undue importance has been attached to it,
mainly owing to the frothy "leaders" that have been
paraded in the columns of some of the United States
journals, which never miss an opportunity of flinging
a stone at Britain, and the bombast of which, though
seen through at their side of the water, has led to the
adoption of a similar inimical tone on the part of a
section of the press here, which has thus assisted in
increasing the general uneasiness. The question, in
fact, has [rhea rise to a "newspaper war," and now
that the first feelings of excitement have passed off;
the simple character of the misunderstanding is more
plainly perceived. It is known in the best-informed
circles that there has not been the slightest disruption
of the friekidly relations previously existing between the
governments and representatives of both the United
States and Great Britain. The communications on both
sides have not merely been conducted in an amicable
spirit, but eao greatest desire has been shown to pre-
vent the affair from assuming the magnified propor-
tions to which, so far as regards the amount of dis-
cussion bestowed upon it, it has unfortunately at-
tained. We have even heard it stated, as a proof of
the entire absence of any angry feeling at Washing-
ton, notwithstanding the disquieting accounts of the
fitting out of naval armaments at the other side,
that no despatches whatever upon the subject
have been forwarded to the embassy here. Alto-
gether' it would appear that the stern interpretation
of the Fishery Convention so abruptly decided upon
by our government, has met with a quieter reception
at Washington than could have been expected—a
circumstance, however, which does not in any way
exonerate the Tory cabinet from the charge of rashly
wounding the susceptibilities of • nation of vast
power, and engaged in the closest commercial rela-
tions with Great Britain. At the same time we
hear strong indignation expressed in well-informed
liZrivast= at the ormalumasslii• sad *yea
rriseguage of Mr. Secretary Webster in his
speech at Marshfield.
The official record of business in the home funds

embrace the following stocks, via —Three per Cent.
Consols, for money, 991 1, I. I ; ditto, for co-
count, 991, 1,1, 1. Three per Cent. Reduced, 100,
991, 1001. New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.,
103, 1, 1021, 1031. Long Annuities, 1860, 81.
India Stock, 277. Bank Stock, 224, 228.
Exchequer Bills are nominally unchanged, the
only operation being a sale of the March issue at
745. prem. India Bonds mark 87s. to 90a. prem.
In the foreign market there were scarcely half a
dozen transactions. The arrangement of the account
has commenced, but it engages hardly any atten-
tion, compared with the heavy settling in
the share market. The various bond. are gene-
rally firm, especially Peruvian and Mexican.
We perceive it stated in the Mexican accounts re-
ceived via New York that the embargo on the com-
mercial houses at Vera Cruz which had at first re-
fused to submit to the tariff regulations of that port,
in view of the fact that a different scale is in force
at Nlatamoras, had cased by order of the general
government, and the bonds which these houses had
entered into for the payment of the duties were dis-
counted in the capital at 5 per cent. The sales are
limited to :—Brazilian Old Five per 'Cents. (Small
Bonds), 1021. I)utch Two-and-a-Half per Cents.,
641, 631; ditto Four per Cent. Certifs., 981. Peru-
vian Deferred Three per Cents., 691. Sardinian
Five per Cents., 95.
We learn from the Hague, in confirmation of the
announcement made by us some time ago, that a bill
for the reduction of the four per cent. debt of Hol-
land will be presented to the States General at the
commencement of the new session, which will be
opened on the third Monday in September. The
Four per Cents. will be converted into Three-and-a
Half per Cents., dissentients having the option ot
being paid off, and the law will come into effect on '
the Ist of January, 1853. It will be recollected that
a law of the 25th of June, 1844, provides that the
Four per Cent. inscriptions shall not be liable to be
paid off before the 31st December, 1852. It will be
seen that this measure, which has been several times
mooted, is of considerable importance, es the amount
of Dutch Four per Cent. inscriptiones 237,409,500
florins, or 19,800,0001., the annual interest of which
amounts to 9,496,380 florins, or 791,0001. The
saving that will be effected by the reduction is about
100,0001. per annum.
It appears that the financial position of the Spanish
government will experience same improvement, in
consequence of the measure recently adopted, by
which the young men who are drawn by lot for
the military service are exempted on payment of a
fixed sum to the state. It is stated that the measure
has been very well received, and that 51,000,000
rails, or 520,0001. sterling have already been paid
into tho Bank of St. Ferdinand on this account, It
is expected that the government will be enabled to
effect a material reduction of the floating debt.
Wednesday next, the 18th instant, has been
appointed special settling day in the Stock Ex-
change for Cork and Bandon eighth preference
shares.

The money market is not so easy as it was, and
rates of discount may be said to rule about a quarter
per cent. higher. For money on call I I per cent.
can now be readily obtained. At this penod of the
year any unfavourable rumours relative to the
har-
vest have a sensible effect upon the money market,
the demands upon which for the prosecution of agri-
cultural labours, and our internal and foreign trade,
have this week increased. Next week it is probable
the demand for accommodation in the stock exchange
will be considerable, in connexion with the settle-
ment of accounts.
According to the recent railway directors'
statements, the dividend on London and South
Western stock for the half year will be at the rate of
31 percent. per annum; the Maryport and Otrliale,
3 per cent. for the year ; the York, Newcastle, and
Berwick, 2/.16a. per cent. per annum ; and the York
and North Midland, IL per cent. per annum.
The imports of specie and bullion this week in-
clude 87,0001. worth of gold by the Tamar from
Sydney; 26,0004 by the Tasmania from Portland
Bay ; 6.649 or. by the Agricola from Sydney ; 2,000
or. by the T. J. and T. Crisp from Launceston ;
323,230 &Is, by the Asia from Now York; 2264 by

the Severn from the Brazils; 630!. in gold duet by
the Propontis from the Cape and Sierra Leone ; and
2,1351. by the Iberia from Gibraltar, Lisbon, and
Oporto; the Humboldt also brought over 450,010
dole. from New York, but this amount was for 'Jerre.
The total value of the supplies to this market may
thici be stated at rather more than 190,0001. sterling,
being much less than the previous imports.
The exports of the precious petals direct from
London during the week ending Thursday last com-
prise a total of 136,194 ounces of silver, and 1,0001
ounces and 12,7001. in gold, of the aggregate value
of about 43,0001. The account in detail is as follows:
—Silver coin : to Calcutta, 32,000 ounces; to Ham-
burg, 8,935 ounces • to Belgium, 60,000 ounces.
Silver bare: to Mara', 10,000 ounces; to Calcutta,
11,278 ounces; to Hamburg, 13,961 ounces. Gold
coin : to Hamburg, 1,000 ounces; to Calcutta, 12,7001.
The only other shipment of coin that has been re-
ported to us is a sum of about 10,0001. by the Balla-
rat for Port Phillip, by which the total shipments
from the kingdom are raised to 63,0001, Although
the specie movement this week is by no means so
important as of late, it appears by our returns that
lift =the following
analysis of the railway traffic returns for the last
week on all the lines in the kingdom :

THIS DAY.

Two o'Ctocx.
The appearance. of the weather is not so promising
to•day, and thus the stock market has not maintained
the advance of Saturday. Consols have ranged
between 981 to 991, and are now quoted 99 to
k both for money and the Bth Sept., or k worse than
Saturday. There has been an average amount of
business, although attention is much absorbed by the
share settling. The Three per Cents. Reduced
mark 991 to ; The New Three-and-a-Quarter per
Cents. 1021 to 1. Bank Stock, 225 to 226. India
Stock, 276 to 277. Exchequer Bills, March, 735. to
765. prem.; ditto June, 695. to 725. prem. India
Bondi, 87s. prem.
In the foreign house there is not much change in
prices, and little business going forward, beyond the
settling. Peruvian Actives mark 100; ditto De-
ferred, 591; Buenos Ayrian, 73 to 75; Mexican New
Threes, 25 to 1 ; Russian Fives. 1201; Sardinian, 94
to 1; Spanish Passives, bf ; ditto New Deferred
Threes, 211; ditto Committee's Certificates, 21 per
cent.
