MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Teen o'Civek.—We have a very quiet market, but
depressed. The closing quotations of yesterday, have
not been maintained, and Console are weak, at
86 to 4 for money and time. Reduced Threes
are 861 to 4. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.,
861 to j. Exchequer Bills are again lower, at 275.
to 31a. premium. Bank Stook, 1961 to 81. The
decline in Exchequer Bills, since the appearance of
his financial statement, should act as a warning to
the Chancellor of the Exchequer of the con-
sequences which may further follow the pres-
sure of the issues of new bills upon the
market to any such considerable amount as, accord-
ing to his intimation, he apparently had in contem-
plation.
Tile principal feature in the business of the foreign
market still continues to be the transactions in the
Portuguese stock. The Four per Cents. have been
bought up to 21, but are now, upon sales for realis-
ing profits, quoted lowe-, at '2O to 1. Spanish Fives
remain In to 1; the Threes, 22; to 31 ; Passive,
3 to 1. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are sta-
tionary, at 44 to 5; the Fours, at 70 to
1. Russian, 99 to 101. Danish, 67 to 70.
Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 69 to 72. Mexi-
can, 161 to 17. Brazilian, 72 to 4. Chilian, 83 to 6.
