MONEY MARKET.

Tara/DAY EVININO.
Business in the Stock Exchange was checked this
morning by the general feeling of suspense as to
the result of the weekly board meeting at the Bank
of England. As hour after hour passed away, and
the Bank sitting was still protracted, anxiety be-
came more intense, and the market at length Ras
almost deserted, the members congregating in the
neighbourhood of the Bank, and being altorlether
undisposed to do busintsti till the decision of the
directors should be promulgated. It was, not till
nearly two o'clock that it trans, iired that
an advance in the minimum di *Count rate
of the institution to four-and-a-Leif per cent.
had been decided on. The immediate effect of the
announcement was not by any mew is marked, as an
impression prevailed in some arters that an ad-
vance to S per cent. was not imp Jasible, and the rise
of 4 per cent. may therefore be said to have been in
some measure "discounted." Sellers, however, soon
came in more freely, and fly; funds finally closed at
a further fall of 1 per cent , from the last rates of
yesterday, making a total 'dill of rather more than I
per cent. in two days. Ir, , railway shares the actual
depression in prices has 'men further aggravated, but,
owing to the fall in 'this market having been so
extraordinarily heavy during the last few days, the
reduction of to-daX• is scarcely so marked as might
have been expects d.
The extent to which this fresh rise in the rate of
dimwit will elect mercantile interests at large,re-
mains to he 'Jen. The rate of 4 per cent. is certainly
not a high rale, and would not militate against the
prosecutior, of a steady and successful business
throughos .t the country, although it is a higher rate
than ha, prevailed since the beginning of 181 e, 1. e.,
for mor e than five years. It must not be overlooked,
howev cr, that in periods of monetary pressure, it is
not es much the want of money as the existence of a
fecli ag of distrtut that does the mischief, people
bei•sg induced to hold their money by them, in the ap-
prehension of worse times, instead of giving it free em-
ployment, and so relieving the wants of the general
commercial community. Remembering that the
present increased stringency of the money market
will be relieved so soon as returns can be received
for the immense exports that have for months past
been in course of despatch to Australia and else-
where, it is to be hoped no symptoms of distrust will
be manifested. It must not be disguised, however,
that the unsettled aspect of politics, and the ascer-
tained deficiency in the harvest, naturally leading to
an efflux of the precious metals, are calculated to ag-
gravate the present stringency, and ought to
induce great caution on the part of all persons
engaged in monetary and commercial affairs.
The accounts from the manufactu ing districts will
now be watched with increased interest, as many
parties are disposed to think that the disturbance of
tho money market will react there in a rather decided
manner. The last accounts from Manchester report
a very dell market, there being little disposition to do
business; whilst prices have begun to exhibit consi-
derable unsteadiness.
Mon has to-day, and for some days, been in such
extraordinary demand fur commercial purposes, there
having been almost a kind of " run" upon discounters,
that we cannot doubt the enhanced rates will be
henceforth acted upon throughout the market. In
fact, the " out of doors" dealers have for
some days pest been charging rates above the then
Bank nisninntin of 1 per cent. We understand that
due notice will be given in several quarters to-morrow
of an increase in the rate allowed for deposits on call.
This morning there was a general indisposition on the
part of discounters to great accommodation till the
result of the Bank sitting should have been made
known.

As the new stocks can actually be purchased in the!
market at a heavy discount, it is almost needless to
point out that to accept them at present is simply
equivalent to throwing away a considerable sum e,f
money. It is an extraordinary fact, howev'a That

!dears. Baring, BrotLers, and Co. advertise • the
periodical operation of the sinking fund, as affecting
the 3 and 6 per cent. loans of Chili. The dividends
about to fall due on Danish 3 iper cent. of 1825, the
various Brazilian 5 per cent. loans, Chilian 6 and 3
per cents., and Peruvian 3 per cents., are also adver-
tised as payable in due course by the respective
agents. The outstanding 6 per cent. bonds of the
Peruvian loan of 1849 are to be paid off from the Ist
of October.
A dividend, at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, is
advertised as payable on the 22nd inst. on the paid-
up capital of the National Provincial Lifo Insurance
Company.
Land shares were cheaper at one period of the
day, and generally showed unsteadiness; but at the
close prices were much the same as yesterday. Austra-
lian Agricultural closed 27 to 29, and Peel River I
to # die. Bank shares stood at about yesterday's
quotations, with little demand. Generally miscella-
neous securities were neglected. Crystal Palace
shares closed lower, at 1 to 11 prem.
Letters from Lisbon of the Bth of September state:
—The Bawd of Health has issued the following
orders of September 3 : Declaring Ystad, in Sweden,
to bo infected with cholera from the sth of August;
declaring Para free from disease from July 10.
Business in the market for American securities this
week has been very dull, and prices are generally
lower. Present quotations are thus reported by

The operations in the foreign stock market were
very restricted, and a feeling of flatness generally
prevailed. In a few instances' however, pnees were
quoted rather better than the depressed rates cur-
rent yesterday afternoon • and it would appear that
the Bank movement is likely to impart for the mo-
ment a steadier feeling to the market rather than
otherwise. The heavy fall in Peruvian yesterday
was mainly owing to the failure in the house then
reported, and to-day there was an almost equally
marked rally, purchases being made at 77. The
ice, however, is quoted very wide At 4 o'clock

Gold continues to be sent to the continent, but in
comparatively small amounts. By far the larger
proportion of the gold brought in by the-Barrackpore
has been sent away; but the supplies of the precious
metal received by the Kent and Marco Polo
era still available to meet any foreign de-
mead. There seems little prevent probability,
however, of the Bank of England's metallic stock
experiencing any sensible accession from the Aus-
tralian imports. The next packet of tho Royal Mail
Steam Company will take out 67,000!. in gold on
account of the government of Peru. This sum forms

Peruvian stock, amounting to 1,535,8001., and partly
to refund a home debt of 600,000/., bearing higher
rates of interest. It is in connexion with this last-
named object that gold is being sent to Peru; and
we can mention that arrangements are being made
for the:despatch to that quarter of between 200,000/.

THVIIIIDAT EVINING.
In the railway market to-day the tone was quieter
at the commencement of busman, with less varia-
tion in price. During the morning prices moved up
and down with Consols; and about mid-day, in
sympathy with the advance in the funds, there was
a general improvement, some of the heavy stooks
rallying 2 per cent. Prices left off generally
lower than yesterday; and ut the close, al-
though the feeling was perhaps rather steadier, tho
tone was fiat.

THIS DAY.—Two o'CLoCi.
Although there has still been a tendency to fluctu-
ation in the railway market to-day, the feeling is
generally steadier, and prices have experienced a
rather decided rally. London and North-Western
is at present quoted 102 to 4; Great Western, 81
to 11 Lancashire and Yorkshire, 881 to 1; Midland,
581 to 59; Doren, 181 to a ; Great Northern., 181
to 1; and Caledonians, 271 to 28. At the period
when Consols *toed at the highest point of the morn-
ing, the quotations in this market were still better.

French shares have rallied considerably. North-
ern. are now 9uoted Hi to 35 ; Strasboorgs, 38fr
