MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DA 1.)

Two o'Cioct.
The funds to-clay are firm. Prices are quoted
fully as good as yesterday. There is not much
business. English railways, after improving, are
now dull. The only other feature of interest is a
considerable rise in Turkish Ponds.

At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's
telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes were quoted
69fr. 80c., being Sc. lower than yesterday.
Consols are officially marked 931, 1, and 1 for

sent quotations are 931 to for money, and

In the foreign stock markets great deal of attention
has been directed to Turkish Bonds, owing to the
favourable character of the statements made in the
House of Commons last night. The Loan of 1858 has
risen 1 per cent., being quoted 72 to 4, ex div. The
Loan of 1854 has improved to 851 to 88.

U. 16 to 1; Rotterdam, 3 months, 11.18 to 1 ;
Antwerp, 3 months, 25.45 to 50; Hamburg, ma lenco,

he announcement by telegraph from Constan-
tinople that the Turkish budget for 1862 shows a
surplus of 882,0001. bee not surprised those con-
versant with the inherent resources of Turkey, but
is regarded by the general public as much more
satisfactory than oould have been expected. Con-
fidence in Turkish finance is evidently reviving.
The mails from Calcutta, China, and Australia
have reached Marseilles, and are expected to be
delivered in London on Monday morning.
The monthly return of the Bank of France, as
made up to Thursday, the 13th of March,
shows the following results (the exchange taken at
25f. to the pound) :
Coin and Whoa .... .„ Lwow 124440,000

Notes in ciroubdien bursars 1,640,000
Private
ry Treieud=te lscriese 3,3310.000
Advaares on public securities Increase 4,400.000
Looking at the increase in the bullion and de-
crease in the commercial bills discounted it is evi-
dent that, were not the Bank hampered with
such large advances on Bonnie securities (made in
order to facilitate the government conversion
scheme) it could ere now have reduced its rate of
discount
At Paris there is less demand for money, and the
rate of discount in the open market has receded to
9 4 below the minimum of the Bank
At Vienna the quotation is 5 ; Ham-
burg, 2 ; Amsterdam, 31 ; Berlin, 31 ; Frankfort,
2f ; Turin, 41 ; and Brussels, 3 per cent.
It is stated that the Great Northern Railway
Company have effected important savings in the
working expenses, and that, for example, there has
been a diminution since the Ist January of 200,000
in the number of train miles run, as compared with
the corresponding period of last year.
The Caledonian Railway traffic return shows this
week an increase of 8021.
The directors of the Oriental Inland Steam Com-
pany have issued a circular in which they give a
lengthened explanation respecting the arrangement
. entered into with the Secretary of State for India in
Council, for the transfer to the Indus Steam Flotilla
(Soinde Railway Company) of certain steamers,
barges, &c., the property of government, now on
the Indus. The directors state "that a transac-
tion so fraught with danger to the interests of this
company, and so fatal to the progress of private
enterprise in India, cannot be suffered to pass un-
noticed ; and it is therefore their intention to use
every legitimate means in their power to oppose it."
We are informed that the application for shares
in the "Alliance Bank of London and Liverpool
(Limited)" already far exceed the number to be

week in Atlantic and Great Western Railroad secu-

attention specially to this line. The sales during

The India Five per Cent. stock shared-in the
