MONEY -ifdBKET.—THIS DAY.

Two o'ClLoez.
The English stock market to-day is very inactive,
but well supported. Copses have stood nearly
all morning at 881 to 881 ex div. for the
10th of January, and are now quoted 88 11-161
to 13-16, being a shade better than they aimed yes-
terday. The Three per Cents. Rama have been
dealt in at 881 to 1; the New Three per Cants. at
881 to 89 ; Exchequer Bills, at 7s. dim,; Exchequer
Bonds, at 971 to 981; and India Bonds, at 2.. die.
In the foreign stock market the principal change
is in Russian, which has again declined, the
Five per Cents. marking 961 to 961. Turkish
Six per Cents., have improved to 831 to 84,
and the New Four per Cent. Guaranteed
Loan to si to 21 die. Portuguese Four per Cents.
have been dealt in at 461; Spanish Old Three per
Cents., at 391; ditto, Passive Beads, at 71; Mexican,
at 191 ; Brazilian Old Five per Cents. (small bonds),
at 991; ditto, Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1862,
at 911 ex div.; ditto, Five per Cents., 1829 and
1839, at 981.
Both here and in Paris the markets are sensitive
wing to the floating speculation for higher priori.
This is eapsoially the case in Paris, where mstions
hr a rise have -been very freely pronesabh in the
lips an early peace. Should these antkdpations,
certainly are not entertained by the general
public, fail of realisation, considerable
zassrehended when these sperstlative " pur•
mato to be closed.
On Tuesday next falls payable the final instalment
of 10 per cent. upon the British loan of 16,000,0001.,
but it Is believed that a portion of this payment has
been liquidated in advance. Upon payment of the
final instalment, a proportionate amount of Consul
she is to be issued, in addition to the stook repro-
, seated by the original 10 per cent. deposit.
It appears that the price at which the new Russian
Five per Cent. Loan is offered in Berlin is 86 per
oat. The Coupons, it is provided, shall be paid at a
I bred rate of exchange at St. Petersburg, Hamburg,
and Amsterdam. A sinking fend of 2 per cent. per
annum is to come into operation is 1868. The
opinion seems general that the negotiation will fail,
or at least be attended with only very partial success.
According to the tag hie anon ham Berlin, a
fresh fall of 1 per cent. has taken place in the old
lonian stook. At Amsterdam the tendency for these
securities is still downwards, and at Hamburg
there is no sign of recovery from the recent heavy
fall of 2 pr. cent.
The chief items of the Bank of France return for
the month ending the 13th of December were pub-
lished exclusively in the Daily News of yesterday
morning. The results, in sterling, are indicated
below (exchange taken at 25f. per 11):
Difference from
Total. last Warn.
Coin and bullion £8,766.000 .... Incomes £294,000
Bills discounted 16.706,600 .... Demean 1,627,600
Circulation
Treasury deposits
Private deposits
The chief changes exhibited in the previous
monthly return were a decrease of 831,8001. in the
bullion, of 955,4001. in the discounts, of 1,420,3001.
in the circulation, of 1,224,8001. in the Treasury
balances, and of 686,6001. in the private deposits.
Considering the heavy withdrawals of bullion from
London and elsewhere, the increase in the metallic
stock becomes comparatively small. The decrees in
the discounts, though partly due to the closing of the
Paris Exhibition, indicates a considerable diminution
of commercial activity. The government balance
continua small. From the heavy diminution in the
private deposits may be inferred an increase in the
general demand for money in France. It is also evi-
dent that the Bank perseveres in its recent policy of
curtailing the *commodities heretofore granted
by it.
The Emigration Commissioners will receive ten-
ders on the 20th inst. for the hire of a ship for the
conveyance of emigrants from Jamaica to the Fast
Indies.
The return of the Bank of England for the week
ending Saturday, Dec B, when compared with the
previous return, shows the following results :

decrease of 727,4881. in the private securities, of
ill 6,13081. in the "other" deposits, and of 147,6291. in
the coin and bullion. The stationary position of the
Treasury deposits is an unfavourable feature, mai-
-1 tiering the advanced period of the quarter.
