The English funds have searceiiviricdirOm yes-
terday's quotations, but retain a dell appearance,
Money has been in considerable demand at 3 per
cent. for the completion of the Consol settlement.
Out of doors the active demand for money has con-
tinued, the rates ruling at 21 to 3 per cent. Trans-
actions have, doubtless, taken place a shade below
this singe, but they cannot be taken as indicative of
lam state of the market generally. The large dis-
'SSA houses especially show a disposition to exact'
Ml rates. It is evident that the present position of
the money market and the uncertainty as to its
I future course are weighing upon the security mar-
kets, which aro fiat throughout, speculative de-
scriptions of course suffering the most.l
Operations are further checked by the nn- I
certain issue of the government conversion plan,
and by the desire to see how the Chancellor of 1
the nor will act in the case of the renewal of
=ills, whilst it is at the same time remove-
the budget, as a whole, has not yet re-
Solved legislative sanction. Still the depression in
prices is slight, a strong disposition being shown to
support quotations.
As regards the progress of the conversion nothing
farther is yet known, no official information being
tarnished. The process appears to progress very
quietly, and (thus far) has certainly not ittractefl any
,seance.
narked degree of attention. Under present circum-
*ere is naturally a disposition to watch the
Imes of events quietly, the more especially as govern-
ment allow so long a space of time for holders of
&mole and Reduced to signify their assent to the
I commutation. The notification in the Gazette rela-
tive to the proposed Exchequer Bonds, is looked for
with interest.
Consols at one moment improved to 100 Z, buyers
for the account of the let June ; but the ruling and
closing quotation was 1001 to 1 for money, and 10011
toe for the new account. The settlement of the ac-
count expiring this day progressed quietly. The
meat broker continues his investments in Re-
dacted Threes; his purchase to-day was effected at
par. The official business report includes :—Three

The expectation that Mr. Gladstone will do some-
thing to relieve this market, affords it comparative
support during the present demand for money. India
Bonds mark 255. to 29e. prem.
Foreign stocks, although not materially changed,
have shown a downward tendency, especially Peru-
vian Deferred, which closed only 641 to 651. Mexi-
can Bonds, although in steady demand on Dutch ac-
count, also gave way, chiefly from sympathy with
the general dulness of speculation. Grenadian
stocks were also weaker, and Spanish became a shade
Satter after 3 o'clock. Buenos Ayrean bonds, on the
other hand, marked higher. At four o'clock, Mexican
bonds were quoted, 264 to 1; Granada Active, 221
to 23; ; ditto Deferred, tot to 11 ; Peruvian
Deferred, 641 to 65); ditto Four-and-a-Half

There was not so much demand for gold to-day
for despatch to the continent. The altered aspect of
our money market is adverse to this operation.
' The Sultan, steamer, arrived at Marseilles this day
I at noon with the overland mail, which will arrive in
ILyndon on Saturday evening or Sunday morning.
The anticipation of a decline in the price of silver
has been realised. The large supplies by the Meg.
I dalena were sold to-day at 4s. 11)d. per ounce fur
dollars, and 3.. hi. per ounce standard for bar silver,
being a decline of 4d. per ounce. A portion of there
supplies was taken for India, and the remainder for
Ithe continent.
The total sum paid to the Southampton Dock Com-
pany for the use of their dry docks in the first four
months of this year is 1,1831., against 3371. in the
corresponding period of last year. These figures,
Ithough comparatively small in amount, are
.yet of
interest to the proprietary, as the capital sunk in this
portion of the company's works has hitherto been un-
productive, and is only now beginning to yield a
return. From the extended use now made of this
portion of the docks for the repairing of iron steamers
and other vessels, it is expected that the dry ducks
receipts will experience a considerable increase.
The directors of the Norfolk Estuary Company
