SAIVIDAT EYINITING.

The various Stook Exottnp markets were to-day
subjected to further depression, consequent upon the
belief that the annonnosisent of a new government

loan is near at head. The Toads experienced a fresh
fall of I to j per cent., but after the recognised hours
a roomy of percent. was quoted. It is evident
that uncertainty as regards the extent of the Chan-
cellor of the Ruh/quer% requires enb will sow ad
as a micas impediment to monetary and commercial
Weariless, and it is urged with reason that as oa-
dal announalneet upon the subject ought to be

The funds experiessed a further fall of 1 per mot.
WI morning, and are sow fluted about $ per east.
lower than the dosing range of Saturday. Sales in
preparation far the new loan undue to be freely
pressed. Consols for the Bth May were first marked
931 sad 93j, tell to 92, sad are now quoted
911. For money the present price is 92. The
These per Cent. Reduced have bees dealt in at 911
lawn to 901; the New Three per Cents. from 92
911 ; the New Two-and-a-Half per Cent.. at 76 ; the
March Exchequer Bills, at 2s. to 911. prem. ; ditto,
June, at Is. to 4s. dist India Beads, at Bs. dis ; and
Exchequer Bonds, at 98 to I.
Foreign stocks are, in several cases, lower.
especially Turkish. The tales include Turkish
Six per Cents. at 914 down to 961 (ex div.)
for money, and at 911 to 1 for the 16th May;
the Guaranteed Pour per Gents. at 1011 down
to 100 j for mossy; Dutch Four per Cent. Certifs.,
at 93 to 1 ex die.; Bassos Apes, at 81; Mexican,
at 211 to for mosey; Sardinian, at 90 to 96;

We announced on Saturday that the Beemah had
arrived from Port Philip with 18,000 ounces of gold
on freight, worth about 72,0001. The dates by this
vessel =end to the 31st of January, and are there-
fore five days later than those previously received.
Including this supply, last week's arrivals of the re-
done metals were not large, comprising • total of
about 822,0001.—viz., 61,319 ounces of gold by the
Anglesey, from Melbourne; 41,0001. by the Canada,
and 4,860 dole. by the Atlantis both from New
York; and 3,4161. by the Tagus, from Gibraltar and
Limbos. Large quantities of silver, however, were
still drawn from the Continent for the But. The
Baron Osy brought in last week 20 cues, sad
the Ravenabourne 10 cues, both from Antwerp, irre-
epodes of minor arrivals.
The chief feature in the Custom-house statement of
the exports direct from London during last week
maists of some considerable shipments of silver to
Hamburg. The total amount comprised in the state-
ment is 170,668 os. of diva and 2,006 or. of gold,

The
value of about 60,0001.
The are viz.—Silva coin: To

him To 30,949 es Geld ooin :To Ham-
burg,l,9lo es.; to 16 or.
No ether shipmate were alleially reported, the re-
mittances; against the Turkish loan being effected
privately.
The total amount of gold actually upon the point
of being landed is no leas than 828,00014 brought
over by the ships Blackwell, Anglesey, and Beemah.
It is expected that nearly the whole will be sent into
the Bank. This will form an important set-off
against the drain to Turkey. The wind is also fa-
vourable for further arrivals.
The amount of gold shipped on board the Aber-
toy* which sailed from Melbourne on the 18th Jan.,
is 18,902 os., worth upwards of 75,0001.
It appears from a parliamentary paper just issued
that the total amount of Exchequer Bills outstanding
on the 31st alt. was 21,182,7001. Of the Exchequer
Bills expsir►ng last month (Mach), 18,794,8001. was
renewed, and 487,4004 paid off.
The adjourned meeting of the Royal Swedish
Railway Company is to be held at the London Ta-
vern to-morrow, at 2 o'clock. It is considered
of impetus, that the proprietors should make a
point of being present on this occasion, inasmuch as
upon the decision of this meeting hinges the future
of the undertaking. It cannot be expected that the
recently-elected directors will cones= tomb; them-
selves personally responsible for the immediate lia-
bilities of the company, which are essakirrable. Con-
sequently, the rejection by the sheribeibes of the
scheme put forward by the new dinettes fur the is.
construction of the company, and foe the raising of
funds to meet the pressing claims upon it, will, of
course, involve the resignation of the five gentlemen
nominated os Friday.

immediately put forward. The ter= sad reedit:ion
of the sew financial operation may not yet have bees
1 filly matured, but the amount required ie probably

by this time aseertained by Sir O. C. Lewis. Is.
formation upon this essential point is inipatiestly
awaited.
The continued heaviness of the market is mainly
attributable to sales, both speculative and Itono_fmk.
in anticipation of a further creation of stock. There
is no doubt that the market is already well supplied
with stock, the creation from the last loan having been
unusually rapid,and having outstripped for the time the
steady. investments of the public It is chiefly upon
this view and upon the maintenanes of the high value
of money that sales are now pressed. On the other
hand it must be remembered that the payments on
the new loan will probably be gradual, that it will
be destined to finally clear off the balance of the war
expenses, that the present drain of gold is for an
exceptional and temporary purpose, and that the
firmness of the foreign exchanges warrants the hope
of a lees stringent money market whoa the fresh
supplies of gold from Australia aid elsewhere shall
be brought into full play.
There is still a good general demand for money,
which will be promoted by preparations against the

new ken. -
