MONEY KAMM-THIS DAY

The funds are better to-day, owing partly to ru-
mours connected with the financial situation of
France. Prices have risen Ito f per cent., compared
with the four o'clock quotations of yesterday. Con-
sols have touched 931 to f for ;mousy
and the Bth instant, and are now quoted
931 to 1. Exchequer Bills are marked 7s. to lls.
pram,; Exchequer Bonds 99 to 991; and India
Bonds 10s. to 13e. prem.
Turkish Six per Cents. have risen to 100 to 1; and
the Guaranteed Four per Cents. to 1001 to 101.
Other foreign descriptions are well supported. Dutch
Two-ando•Half per Cents. have been dealt in at 841
(exch. 128.); Brazilian Old Five per Ceuta. at 100 to
1001; French Three per Cent. Scrip (last loan) at

A ism of 40,0004 in gold is known to have been
taken from the Bank for the Continent yesterday.
Private telegraphic account, received from Shang-
hai, per the Overland Mail, report the exchange on
London at 7s. 24., showing a decline of about 3d.,
=red with the price advised by the previous
This decline is calculated to moderate the
late excessive eagerness to ship dollars to China, and,
coupled with the demand for silver on the Cootinent,
and with the general rims in the value of mosey
throughout Nemo, has raised numerous parcels to
be held been which were previously ordered to be
shipped by the steamer of the 4th inst. It is new
thought that the total remittances by this vessel will
be about 800,0001., instead of upwards of a million,
se was previously anticipated. At an exchange of
78. 24., however, the profit upon the remittance of
dollars to Shanghai is still so large that the ship-
ments must be expected to continue heavy. A very
heavy fall most take plaosl in the Chinese exchanges
before the export of silver thither will cease.
The rate of insurance upon the outward Alexandria
steamer of the 4th November remains quoted ac &boot
50e. per. mint. at Lloyd's. It is complained. however,
by parties in the; bullion trade, that this figure is too
kgh. Owing to the high rates of insurance charged
at Lloyd's there has been store disposition lately on
the part of remitters to enter into terms with some
of the foreign houses.
We have received the following memorandum from
the Euphrates Valley Railway Company :
" Mr. Andrew (the chairman of the Euphrates
Valley Railway Company) has received from Viscount
Stratford de Radcliffe, through the Earl of Clarendon,
a telegraphic &spate& dated Sept. 27, to the effect
that it is expected that the Sublime Ports will
guarantee 6 per cent on a capital of 8,000,000/. for
the railway from the Mediterranean Sea to the
Persian Olaf, for 99 years, upon certain conditions,
and that the Turkish government is prepared to go
into concessions for the European and Indian Juno-
lion Telegraph on the snivel of Mr. Robinson, the
commissioner of the company, at Constantinople."
Notwithstanding the universal discouragement'
which prevails in financial circles in Paris, a call of
100 f., er 41, pushers, is announced upon the ahem

The stock markets opened this morning with much
heaviness, the funds showing a redaction of fully I
per cent., owing to the prevailing uncertainty as to
whether the Bank directors would deem it necessary
to makes further advance in the rate of discount. A
rally, however, soon set in, the recent operators for
lower prime evincing & disposition to buy beck, and
it being found that the investments of the imbibe
have been decidedly stimulated by the late fall. Upon
the announcement that the Bank board had broken

up without making any further alto:aim in
the rate of discount, which thus remains fled at
6 per mut., the rally made further program. At the
dose of the Stock Exchange prices were quoted 1 to
per mt highsr than at 4 o'clock yesterday, the
sextet at the same time exhibiting an improvement
ia obarsotar. After the regular hours, however, an
unfavourable reaction of per out was quoted. It
is known that gold continuos to leave the Bank, and
the impression maims straw that a further
rise in the rats of discount may be expected imme-
diately upon the revival of any unfavourable feature in
connexion with the continent; bat, ea the other hand,
confidence in the stability of our aseetary position
confirms unshaken. A decline in the exchange at
Shanghai on London was regarded with satisfaction.
We may remark that the sensitiveness of the Cooed

standing "options eat about present prices.
