Her Majesty's steam-higate Sidon reached Alex-

left for Cairo on the following day in one of the
Pasha's steamers, accompanied by Artim Bey, the
Prima Minister, who was to attend upon him by the
orders of Mehemet Ali. His Excellency was to make

MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Two o'Cloek.—A singular report from Paris of the
purposed abdication of Louis Philippe, made public in
a second edition of the Morning Post, came to
perplex, and somewhat disturb the quietude of the
stock market about an hour ago. The report,
however, did not meet with much acceptance,
for Console, which were previously quoted
854 to I, for the opening, only receded to 85
to upon it, u :now quoted ; whereas, if it had
worn a more authentic appearance, they would
probably have been affected to the extent of 2 or 3
per cent. Reduced Threes are 841 to I. Three-
and-a-Quarter per Cents., 884 to 1. Exchequer
Bills are now Ba. tolls. premium. Bank Stock, 1884
to 81.
We have Dutch stocks still on the advance. The
Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are called 68 to ; from
Amsterdam they come quoted also in advance on the
18th, at 56 7-18 to f, with a good demand. The
Fours are 85 to 4. Spanish Five' are 174 to j; the

Threes, 291 to 301. Portuguese, 22 to 3. Russian,
106 to 8. Mexican, 174 to 18.
From Frankfort on the 15th inst. public securities
ciontinned in good demand, and money was reported
to be abundant. The Two-and-a-Half per Cent. Aus-
trian Metallic. were actively dealt in and purchased,
and, it was said, would certainly attain much higher
' prices but that considerable amounts were brought to
market daily for account, as it appeared, of Vienna
homes.
The Brazilian government has, it is stated in re-
cent advice. just received, abolished the duty imposed ,
by the law of the 2nd of September, 1846, on com-
mercial houses having more than two foreign clerks.
IThis resolution is to have a retroactive effect, the
imperial treasury undertaking to reimburse to these
entitled the sums paid in virtue of the law.
The Sardinian government has rendered a consider-
able service to commerce (excepting so far as it refers
to Sundays), by a decree ordering that the entrance
and departure of shipping shall no longer be sus-
pended, nor the custom-houses closed, on feast days
and Sundays. The feast days, as is well known, are
as numerous as they are inconvenient, in most of the
more superstitious koman Catholic states.

RAILWAYS.—The share market continues very
heavy, and the leading lines have again had a further
fall. There is a large quantity of stock offering, and
few buyers. The lighter description of shares has
not suffered so much, but are very flat. A =rider—
able demand has taken place for Australia mining
shares, at an advanced price.
