MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.)

Two o'CLocw.

The stock markets to-day are rather quiet.
The funds remain at yesterday's closing
quotations. Home railways are in some cases
better, and in others rather lower. Foreign
stocks, on the whole, are rather fiat,
the chief movement being a decline in some
classes of Turkish securities. As regards miscel-
laneous shares the tendency of prices is favourable,
International Financial and Credit Mobilier and
Foncier, amongst others, having advanced.
There is a fair demand for money to-day, but
gobd three months' bills are still taken at 7} per
Fent. In the Stock Exchange the rate for short
loans on English government securities has declined
to 5 per cent., the inquiry having diminished.
At Paris to-day, according to Mr. Reuter's tele-
gram, the Three per Cent. Rented were quoted
65fr. Sc., being sc. better than yesterday.
Consols arc now quoted 901 to 1, with div., for
money, and 89i, ex div., "sellers," for the
account (Dec. 8). The official business report
is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for
money, 901, f ; ditto for account, 891, }; Three per
Cents. Reduced, 881, 1, g ; New Three per Cents.,
881, 1, n ; India Five per Cent. Stock, loin, ;
ditto for accouxt, 104} ; and Exchequer Bills,
June, On dis., par.
Turkish Bonds of 1838 are again lower, and the
Consolidds have fallen 1 to } per cent. Mexican and
Spanish Passive Bonds have also declined f. Some
of the present quotations are as follows, viz.
Greek, 23 to f ; Mexican, 28} to ;
Confederate, 63 to 63 ; Spanish Passive,
34 to f ; the Certificates, 13i to ; Turkish
Bonds of 1858, 701 to 71} ; ditto 1862, 71}
to f ; and the Consolidels, 491 to g.
Transactions are recorded as follows :—Egyp-
tian, 93 ; ditto, second issue, 931, 93 ;
for account, 64# ; Mexican, for account,
281, f ; ditto, 1864, 27, 261 ; Portu-
guese, 1856, ttc., 47f, ; ditto for account,
47f, ; Russian, 1862, 86f, ex div. ; ditto 1864,
88 ; Spanish Passive, for account, 30a, 1 ;
ditto, Certificates, foe account, 14 ; Turkish,
1858, for account, 71 ; ditto 1862, for account, 71} ;
ditto, 100/. Bonds, 721 ; ditto Guaranteed, 100 ;
Venezuela, 1862, for account, 51, ex dir. ; ditto
1864, 40.

Intarnational Financial shares are now quoted
21 to 3k prm. ; London Financial, 81 to 9/
prem. ; General Credit, 21 to 3 prem. ;
Imperial and Mercantile Credit, 22 to 3 prem. ;
Credit Fonder and Mobilier of England, to II
prem. ; Hudson's Bay, 171 to I ; Ottoman
tlorguiti Gjn6rale, If to 2 prom. ; and Anglo-
Egypiian Bank./ dia. to I prem.

The reception which has been given, so far as
the Stock Exchange is concerned, to the new Egyp-
tian Loan, is scarcely calculated to encourage the
various foreign governments which are said to be
contemplating an appeal to our market. The
arrangement that Egyptian Government accept-
ances, as well as the Egyptian Trading Com-
pany's Debentures falling clue the Ist proximo,
are to be taken in part payment for the loan,
tends to diminish the likelihood of our stocks
of bullion being trenched upon in connection
with this operation. In some quarters criticism
has been induced by the unusual manner
in which the payment of the instalments is
arranged—subscribers who do not pay in full on
allotment being subject to a charge of 7 per cent.
discount on the delayed instalments. The point
which has chiefly attracted discussion, however, is
the prior subscription of 2,000,0001. out of the
total of 5,704,2001., and in connection with this a
rumour has been circulated that portions of the
2,000,0001. in question have been privately offered
at rates below the price of issue to the public-33
per cent. We are assured, however, in answer to
our inquiries, that this matter does not bear the
construction which has been put upon it. It ap-
pears that Messrs. Oppenheim and Co., the con-
tractors, soon after the settlement of the loan
contract, which took place at the beginning of last
month, admitted various parties to share in their
loan on its original basis, and at the contractors'
prices. This is not an unusual step in such trans-
actions, but the process in the present instant* I
seems to have been carried somewhat further than
is ordinarily the case ; and it is believed that, in
respect of a limited amount of stock, some of the
members of the party of contractors sought at one
period to subdivide their stake by admitting others.
The whole of this arrangement, however, as we
learn, proceeded upon the basis that the parties in
question were required to pay up 31 per cent. of
the amonnt at once, and that they received therefor
no transferable document, their position being, in
fact, identical with that of the original contractors,
in whose venture they have been and are still
sharers.

With reference to the Venezuela Loan of 1864,
the following is an extract of a letter from Hews.
H. L. Boulton and Co., of la Guayra, dated the
25th October, and received by the General Credit
and Finance Company of London :

We makes the following statement of duties collected :
No. 12, from Puerto Cabello, 48.64 doh. • No. 13, from
Puerto Cabello. 1.50 dole. • No. 14, from doh.
Cabello,
340.40 dole. ; No. 6, from La Guayra, 7;462 dole. Total,
464.16 dole. The complete exhaustion of stocks of produce
of every description in our markets accounts for the small
amounts of duties collected, which is always the case during
the last three months of the year, We are pleased to be
able to communicate to you the new. Just received, of a
peaceful arrangement concluded with the province of
Guyana, lately threatening secession. The nest crepe of
coffee and cotton will not begin to arrive to market before
the middle of January, as great drought has much retarded
it, but prospects are held out that produce will be abun-
dant.

Only 5,0001. in gold was bought by the Bank
yesterday.
The steamer Tasmanian, from the West Indies, has
brought 210,500/. in specie (145,0001. gold and
65,5001. silver), and the Clyde, from Melbourne,
0001
63,
7The *advice' from New York mention the ship-
ment for Europe of the large total of 460,000/. to
specie by the steamers City of Cork, Glasgow, Etna,
and New York.

On Change yesterday afternoon bills on the Con-
tinent were in dements, and the tendency of the
rates was unfavourable to this country. The list is

Messrs. Elliot and Co., China merchants., of
Austinfriars, and Messrs. Joseph Temple and Co.,
iron ship-builders, 4.tc., of Blackwell, have failed,
but the liabilities are not large in either case. The
books of the latter firm have been placed in the
hands of Messrs. Cash and Edwards, the accountants.
. .

The advice' from Paris announce the failure of
Messrs. Charles Robin and Co., bankers. The
house has been established some years, but its tran-
sactions have been upon a small scale, and the lia-
bilities are understood to be moderate.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.
MARIK-LAMS.—(THIS DAY.)
Fresh tip, this morning, the receipts of English wheat,
coastwise and by land carriage, were on a limited vale.
Nevertheless the show of samples was moderate. Good
and fine qualities were Wren off slowly at Monday's cur.
renry. All other kinds met a dull inquiry, at 14e rates.
We were somewhat heavily supplied with foreign wheat.
Generally speaking, the transactions were on a limited scale.
In prices, however, no change took place.
Floating cargoes of wheat were bald at full quotations.
10 other grain afloat very little bminess was transacted.
Malting barley was firm in price, with a atetly demand.
Grinding and di-tilling sorts were heavy, but nut cheaper.
Malt, the supply of which was moderate, sold slowly, it
the late decline m value.
The show of oats was tolerably good, and the oat trade
was firm, at full currencies.
In beans, nest to nothing was doing, on former terms.
Peas wore a slow sale, at late rates.
The transactioes in flour, both Eoglish and foreign.
were very moderato, at Mooday's prima.
Linseed, rapeseed, and c.iikee were is fair re vest, at Inn
quotations; but cons agricultural seeds were a dull
inquiry.
