MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Two o'clock. The uneasy appearance of ministerial
matters in the Commons' house last evening, amount-
ing in fact to a partial defeat upon one of the first
items of expenditure prop.,sed to be provided for in
the Committee of Supply, had an unfavourable effect
upon opinion in the City, and tended still more to
lessen confidence, never standing very high,
in the financial skill of the administratien.
Consols declined to 89 to 1, and the reports
from Paris that the government had actually taken
measures to stop the reform demonstration by arms,
to which end Marshal Bugeand had been named com-
mander-in-chief of the armed force, divisions of which
occupied the place where the reform banquet was to
be held, paralysed all business in the funds. Consols
are nominally quoted 891 to both for money and ac-
count. Reduced Three.., 891 to 1. Three-and-a-

The Stock Exchange, and the City generally, pre-
sent a remarkably gloomy aspect this morning, and
it would almost seem that a revolution was impend-
ing here instead of in France. Business is almost sus-
pended, and the most anxious forebodings appear
to engrost the public mind about the results
of the struggle in Paris between arbitrary power,
backed by the army, and the constitutional party
seeking reform, although wisely bent on attaining it
by pacific and legal means. The apprehensions
entertained point not to this party, but to the possible
excesses of popular feeling.
