MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.

Two

The funds remain very steady, at the recent i
provement, notwithstanding the continued inao-
tivity of business. The important intelligence
from Ameri,:a (given in auother column) has
excited great attention, but has scarcely
affected prices. In the other markets tho
transactions have likewise beeu upon a quist
scale, except as regards Mexican Bonds, which
have advanced. The general tendency of prices ilk
the foreign stoe: market appears to be favourable,
Turkish Bonds, however, continuing to form •

prominent exception.
At Paris this rooming, accord►ng to Mr.
Renter's tel,gram, the Three per Cent. Rents
opened at 69fr. 80c., being sc. better than yes-

terday.
Consols are officially marked 934 and 4, for
money, and 93; for the account. The present quo-
tations are ropectively 934 to 4, and 934 to 1. The

paper, 1114 : Exchequer Bills, June, 20a. press.
In the foreign stock market the principal demand
to-day has been for Mexican Bonds, which have
again advanced, being marked as high as 314. The
Turkish Loan of 1854 is steady, at 85 to 4, and that
of 1858 at 67 to 71, ex div., while the loan el
1862 is heavy, at 24 to 14 dis. the scrip, and MI
to 664 the paid-up. A fresh advance has taken
place in the old Venezuela Bonds. Italian Five per •
Cents. are heavy. Peruvian scrip is quoted

scrip, 654, 664 ; Venezuela Three per Cents.,

For the convenience of persons who intend to pay
in old bonds the instalment due the 17th instant
on the new Peruvian Loan, Messrs. Heywood,
Kennards, and Co. announce that they have au-
thorieed Mr. Lewis H. Haslewood to receive that
instalment on and after Wednesday, the 10th.
Holders of Venezuela Bonds may be interested in
learning that the news of the success of the new
loan was contained in the letters despatched
from London on the Ist August, the result
of the negotiation being then plain enough,
although the final closing of the list by Messrs.
Baring did not take place until the 2nd.
Consequently, the mail due on Saturday next
will show how the intelligence has been, re-
osived in Venezuela, where it has probably pro-
duced great buoyancy in commercial circles. This
mail may also very probably bring the formal rati-
fication of the loan so far as the government of
Venezuela is concerned, which would then have
before it the loan prospectus issued by Messrs.
Baring. We believe there can be no question what-
ever as to either the powers held by the Venezuelan
commissioner in London, or the desire of his go-
vernment to carry out the stipulations entered into.

The following letter relates to a paragraph in our
impression of yesterday :
TRANSFERS OF RAILWAY STOCK BY MARRIED
WOMEN.
TO TILE aorron. - • -

Sir,—ln the letter vriteliappears--- in your impression et
thie morning, it is to be regretted that the grouods spew.
which the deri,ion of counsel. with regard. to the non-regis-
tration of transfers to married women, is based, were not
triedy speckled.
There is nothing upon the face of the intimation to thew
whether the '• opinion ' would apply genially, or 'rheas .
it has only special reference to the Bnghtoo Railway Coes-
WY.
Is it really a fact that any company could legally mime
to register a married woman as shareholder in the following
cases I
1. As a holder of stock jointly with her husband.
2. As the sole executrix or administratrix of n deceseed
ebareholder.
Am a legatee to whom stock is transferred in her own
right.
Railway stocks, in extent, now rank next to the funds.
It is desirable, therefore, that so unueoemarily restrictive
clauses should be allowed to creep into toy of the mem-
peuies' acts of parliament, but that every facility foe ties
safe yet prompt conveyance of stock and shares shoal&
exist.-- I am, &c.. Ai
