MONEY MARKET-THIS DAY.

Two o'Caocx.
The English stock market to-day is flatter, *ith
very little Mildness, the opening of the French Chant-
berg, which is fixed for to-day, being awaited. Mean-
while prices are quoted I per cent. lower than those
current at the close of the house on Saturday, the
forthooming French loan giving a check to the
market.

Consols are quoted 911 to 91 ex div., for the 10th
June, from which quotation they have scarcely varied
throughout the morning. The Three per Cent. Re-
duced have been dealt in at 914 to 911; the
New Three per Cents. at 921 to 1; Exchequer
Bills, March, at 22e. prem. ; ditto June, at 19a, to
225. prem.; and India Bonds, at 345. prem.
The foreign stock market is extremely inanimate.
'rurkish, after marking 82, has receded:to 811 to 4;
Mexican is quoted 241 to 4; Spanish Deferred Three
per Cents., 18 to 1 ex div.; and Russian Five per
Cents., 98 to 100. Dntch Four per Cents. have been
dealt in at 95 ; Sardinian at 854 ; and Brazilian Old
Five per Cents. at 1001.
Theimports of the precious metals last week were
very heavy. Our list includes about 340,00 W
by the Pacific, from New York ; 9,1501. by the 1
Madrid, from the Peninsula; 16,959 oz. of gold, by
the Medway, and 69,060 oz. by the Lightning, both
from Port Phillip ; and 558,400 dole. by the Attzto,
from the West Indies.
-The total value of these arrivals is rather above
800,0001.

The exports have been comparatively limited.
The Custom-house statement of the shipments direct
from London during the week includes 21,861 oz. of
silver, and 14,247 oz. of gold, representing a total
value of rather above 60,0001. These supplies were
despatched chiefly to Hamburg. The particulars are
annexed, viz. :—Gold coin : to Hamburg, 10,747 oz. ;
to Boulogne 100 oz.; to Belgium, 1,400 ox. Gold

1,200 oz. The only other shipment officially reported

The ascertained exports of the week are thus raised
to about 100,0001. There have also been limited ship-
ments of gold to France via the Kentish port..
