MONEY MARKET.

SATUUDAT EVXMNO,
Funded values have been in a quiescent state all
day, the prices with scarcely a variation, and the transac-
tions on the smallest scale. Consols opened, and left off, 941
to 6 for money and account ; „Reduced Threes, 931 to 1 ;
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 93/ to f ; Bank Stock, 295
to 6; Long Annuities, 9 13-15 to I ; India Stock, 256 to 8;
Exchequer Bills, Bs. to lls. premium.
The Foreign market was, as usual, without movement,
and pries' nominally unaltered. Mexican are placed at 214
to 2; Brazilian 84 to 6; Spanish Fives, 254 to 1; the Threes,
361 to 71 ; Deferred, 161 to 17 ; Passive, 51 to ; Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 581 to 9; the Fours, 91 to 1.
The Bank of England averages for the week ending the
14th instant give, as compared with those of the week pre- j"
ceding, the following results :
Cireulatiou—lssue £28,246,795

The pudenda: feature of these returns is the large increase
of public deposits, representing revenue payments. The ex-
traordinary expenditure of the government in Ireland will
thus be more than counterbalanced so far probably by the
receipt of Customs' duties upon the large importations of
corn, dour, and other comestibles. The increase in " other"
securities, not comparatively of any important amount, may
have arisen from an extenston of discounts, as at this season
of the year there is usually a greater demand for accommoda-
tien but it cannot be at all certain that such was the case, as
theßank might have taken in Exchequer bills, the market
for which is but indifferently fair, whilst the necessity for
supporting it is urgent under the present low rates of interest. 1
The ad,lition to the stock of coin and bullion is no more than
what might have been expected. The considerable mass of 4
metallic values abstracted from the Bank for several weeks 4
preceding, of which the greater part was undoubtedly for the 2
purposes of internal circulation, and for government distri- 1i
button in Ireland, would lead in the usual course to a gra-
dual
re-flow into the bank coffers. As observed under this '
head last week, " some portion of the large amount distri-
buted from its coffers may return in the natural order
of money and commercial dealing into the Bank." The
accumulation of notes in the banking department,
say nearly nine millions, representing a decrease of active
circulation within one week on average of 561,3051. resulted
from the mass of paper paid in from the boards of revenue,
beyond the payments outwards of private deposits, or
against securities.
Altogether this position of banleng affairs and circulation
is not unsatisfactory. The time would seem to be fast ap-
proaching, however, when bullion and specie will be actu-
ally demanded for export. The quantity, so far, which has
been required for that object is comparatively inconsider-
able, although the effect may perchance show in the next
returns. It seems probable that the demand will first arise
transatlantically. Exchange at New York being for good
paper about 107 i, it is clear that a further decline must lead
to remittances of specie, as the more profitable medium for
the settlement of balances.

FRANKFORT, Nov. 17.—An important loan on the port of
Hanover was recently communicated to the Exchange in this
city. It has been negotiated by Messrs. Bebrend. Simon, and
Cohen, in Hanover, with the co-operation of Messrs. Gold-
schmidt Konigswerter, Jager, and other capitieists here.
The amount which is 4,600,000 dialers, has been negotiated
at 99 per cent. The bonds issued will be partly for thalers
and partly for pounds sterling, at the rate of 1001 per cent.
for the former and 1001 per cent. for the latter. Pa) meurs
to he made in ten monthly parts, commencing on the Ist of
January next. At the expiration of five years the repay-
ment of the capital will commence by means of lotteries, but
only for small amounts during the first three succeeding
years. It will be seen by the above statement that IL,nover
has made considerable sacrifices in order to raise the re-
quired loan.

RAILWAY NEWS.
The market was more firm on Saturday, and with
so much of improvement in some line., that dealers were
buyers at the same rates at which they were 'ellen ea Friday.

Ambergates, Shrewsbegy and 13irminghams, and North star-
fordshires were those most dealt in. Generally, however,
business wa. fiat, and the jobbers little anxious to embark in
new transactions.
There was a fair amount of business done in the share-
market at Liverpool, though at rather lower prices in some
stocks. Dewsbury*, however, improved to 14 pm., and they,
as well as the Hudderstields, closed firmer than on Friday.
Birmingham and Oxfords and Dudleys were easier.
The share-market at Manchester was again very inactive.
Prices were slightly in favour of the buyer, except in the
case of Leeds and Dewsburys, which were rather higher.
The market ut Birmingham was languid: little business
was done, and prices had a decided tendency downwards.
Our correspondent says: " Unmistakeable symptoms made
it manifest that there is again about to be for a time a check
to railway speculstions : the season of the year, the gradual
tightness felt in the money market, and the commensurate
degree of caution exercised by the bankers, all contribute to
produce this state of things, and which may not be found to
be altogether unproductive of gooe. There has beta
a good deal of wild speculation of late in some of the
lines in this district, and but for that check, which
has to some extent been forced upon a certain class of
speculators, unpleasant consequences must ultimately have
ensued. A glance at the quotations in this market on Satur-
I day, and a comparison with those quoted at the early part of
the week, will go far to show that our assumptions are not
altogether unfounded." Ambergates were done at 1 pm.
Stour Valleys, 30s. pm. (prices by no means firm); Buck-
inghamshires at par; North Staffordshires, 31 p.; Shrews-
bury and Birmingham., j 16s. 3d., and ultimately, 15s. pm.;
Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire,
Bs. 9d. and 1 dig.; South Staffordshire registered (late
Junction), 20s. pm. ; South Staffordshire registered (late
Trent .% alley Midland), 1 pm. ; and London and North
Western, 196.
At Leeds, on Saturday, the business dome in the share.
market was limited, and the principal transactions effected
were in Leeds and Dewsbury shares, which sold at an ad-
vance from 111 to 131 prem. Dewsbury branches rose from
7 prem. to 81 prem., and Dewsbury Extension shares from
21s. to 30s. prem. In other lines prices were firm, but there
was no corresponding advance.
The accounts from the London market operated upon that
at Bristol, which was again heavy. The tendency, as regards
prices, was rather downward than otherwise, but the varia-
tions were not considerable. Bristol and Exeter, New, 9;
Caledonian, New, 21. 6s. 3d ; Great Western Quarter Shares,
184 ; Great Western Fifths, 301 to 3.4 ; North Stafford-
shire, 3/ to 34 prem. ; Taff 'Vale, 1334 ; Taff Vale, New,
8.. 9d., it prem.; West Riding Union, 24 prem. ; York and
Newcastle Preference. 84 prem.
The business at Hull, on Friday, was limited, with no
material change in quotations.

LONDON.—GREAT WESTERN.— A very great muse.
nienoe and accommodation has just teen provided at the Paddington
terminus of the Great Western Railway, by the appropriation of a
wilting-room, well warmed and lighted, for scoond-class passengers ;
who, until lately, bad no other place to wait In, until the departure
of the train.% than In the open oboe where the tickets are issued.
Similar acmnamonation ha. aim just been provided by the company,
for passengers travelling by the third claw (parliamentary penny •
mile trains).
PROVINCIAL—EDINBURGH AND GLASO ow.—The pre-
valent imprersion in Scotland is that the direetorson this line will hare
to give way to the urgent and general demand for the re-establishment
of Sunday trains. The inhabitance of Falkirk and Linlithgow, the
Town Council of Edinburgh, and the merchants of Glasgow, have
protested against their stoppage. If the memorial signed at the bar
of the floral Exchange Glasgow, has no effect, there is to be a public
meednle in that city, with the Provost in the chair. It is confidently
expected that the English ehareholders will dlscLiim the faction
between their pansy-holders and the Agnewites. The feeling towards
the new directness, excited by the impolitic step of Mopping the
Sunday trains, ha not been mitigated by the dismissal of Mr. Greg-
eon. The law-plea instituted against them by that gentleman has
made the shareholders anxious. The new directors are not expected
to retain the management of affairs long under any circumstances.
It is generally believed that a wale to the Caledonian (in conjunction
with the London and Great Western) is nearly completed. The terms
are said to be 8 per cent for two years, and 9 per cent. thereafter.
EXETER AND CREDITON RAILWAY.—The directors have
given notice to the Bristol rind Exeter company that the line will be
ready for opening on the 22nd December, and bare impeded that
company to work it in the mode in which their own line to worked by
the threat Western Company. It is believed that mine arrangement
has been come to.
SOVTH DEVON —The opening from Teignmouth to New •
town will be amain delaree.; but it is hoped that the entire line will
be completed by Augusi next.
EASTERN b/
By{
consequence of the great increase
o: traffic on this line the station at Cambridge is found to be quite in-
! adequate for the purposes for which it is required. The directors
have, therefore, resolved to erect a splendid and coinmothous st. Con,
for which purpose they have purchased upwards of 50 acres of lthd,
which will be added to the site of the present station, and when the
new buildings are finishol it will be one of the tar gest on any railway
STATION AND DOCKS AT ELY.—The works at the in-
tended station at Ely are proceeding with all possible expedition, and
will be shortly ready for we. A new dock has been made near the
station, and into this dock vessels enflame from Lynn and Cambridge.
LYNN AND ELY.—The permanent way is laid as far as
the river Wiesay, over which the railway will be earied by a timber
bridge, after which it will be taken by an embankment 20 feet high
to the Great 0111 C. The bridge over the port will he the greatest
work on the line. It w ilt be 120 feet span front abutment to abutment,
and 1G feet high, above low-water mark. The abutments will be of
atone, upon concrete foundations funk 20 feet under water. The line
from the bridge to Ely will cross about 50 bridges, viaducts, and cute
verts. A portion of the line (between Littleport and Ely) will be
opened before Christmas.
&terms', UNION.—ARer the amalgamation, which is in-
tended to take place during the next PCSNUIP, between the Eastern
Union, Ipswich and Bury, and Norwich Railway% they will be known
by the name of " Eastern Union Railways." The line front Ipswich
to Bury is almoet rampkted and will be opened in about a month.
COLONIAL.—ST. ANDREW'S AND QUEBEC —A meeting
of stoekhokkrs was held et St- Andrews as Oct. 7, when several anima-
ting addresses were delivered, and the greatest unanimity and oon-
fklenee in the undertaking seemed to prevaiL The euteenption Hat is
now above 25.0004., and a notice will forthwith be given for a general
meeting to elect &redeye, and to adopt the most vigorous measures
I for advancing the enterprise. All doubt as to the practicability at
making the road and of ultimate PUCOMP has completely vanished.
MONTREAL AND TROT.—There is now no doubt of the
railroad between Montreal and Troy being speedily constructed, the
stock required to be taken up to Montreal having been nearly all sub-
scribed for. Thla road completed, there will be a continuous steam
cammunteatton between Montreal, New York, and Boston.
