The oorn market yesterday was quiet, at Monday's
prices. Floating cargoes continue in demand. Of
the large number of gram-laden vessels reported as
arrived lately only a few cargoes of Egyptian wheat,
and four or five of Indian oorn, remain unsold. Sines
Monday the supply of British corn has been unusually
short, and the arrivals of foreign into London are
quite insignificant, comprising only 3,510 qrs. of
wheat, 2,920 qrs. of oats, no barley, and 870 sacks of
Smut. Although some of the French prvinoial mar-
kets are reported rather lower, the price of flour is

the Bank of England raising its rate of discount spin
to-morrow, and meanwhile operations are conducted
with some degree of uncertainty. It is hoped that the
drain of gold is mitigated by the repressive measures
lately adopted, but on the other band it is stated that
the applications for accommodation at the Bank to-
day were heavy. Probably this demand may have
been increased by the apprehension of a further ad-
vance to-morrow. In the Stook Exchange today

The instalment of 10 per out falling pueblo on
Tuesday next, the 16th inst., on the British loan of
16,000,0001., will complete 80 per cent. paid up, and
will leave only 20 per cent. more to be met—viz.,
10 par cent. on the 20th Nov., and 10 per cent. on
the 18th Dec.
Consols were quoted as good as 861 to 1 at one
period of the morning, but, after two or three oscilla-
tions, were quoted at the close only 861 to 1 for money
and Fridays settling. For the November account
the " oontango" ruled at about 5.16 per cent.
At present prices, if we may judge from put ex-
perience, the public are more likely to appear as
buyers. Consols, it must be remembered, now carry
a proportion of dividend equal to per cent., which
would make the present price about 851 to a. The
official basilica report hi as follows :—Three per Cut.

closing quotation is per cent. below that of yester-
day. The New Fur per Cent. Guaranteed Loan
continues to show severe depression, and ex-
perienced to-day a further fall of about 1
per cut. The first price marked was 31 dia., from
which it soon receded, closing at 41 to 41 die. The
contract price having been 1021 per cent., this stock
stands now at 971 to 981. It is chiefly prejudiced by
the large amount now afloat in the Stook Exchange,
and by the near approach of the 20th, whoa an in-
stalment of 20 per cent. will fill payable, making 50
percent. paid up. Spanish Bonds MIS rather Satter.
