MONEY MARKET.

WEDNESDAY Evauate.

The Stock Exchange generally retains a flat
appearance, no favourable statements obtaining
currency relative to the political question now pend-
ing. The funds have again ruled a trifle lower,
and the other departments of the Stock Exchange are
suffering from the complete stagnation of speculative
business. Late in the afternoon it transpired that
the Paris Bourse of to-day had closed without mate-
rial change, yet, on the whole, showing a lather
downward tendency.
Consols ranged throughout the day between 971
and 98, the prevalent and closing quotation being
97/ to for next Tuesday. The Cooed account is
already being made up, and the continuation was
nominally 1-16 to 1. The settling, however, is not
yet sufficiently advanced to warrant the forma-
tion of a decided opinion as to the bear-
ing of the account. Monday next is " option•
day," and very large optional transactions (in other
iwords, ventures for the "put and call ") having
taken place during the account now concluding,
which is of the extraordinary duration of six weeks,
the speculative position of the market will not be
fully developed till then. On the whole, the funds
may be pronounced pretty steady, but dull, pending
the receipt of further news affecting. the Eastern dis-
pute. The official business report includes :—Three
per Cent. Console, for money, 971, 98, 971, 98, 971;
ditto for the opening, 19th July, 971, 98, 971, Z ;

228/, 228, 229.

The Exchequer Bill market again gave way.
Sales are marked at Is. dia., and the closing quo-
tation was 2s. dis. to 2e. prem. India Bonds mark
225. to 27a. prem.

In the foreign stock market almost the only fea-
ture was in Mexican, which has given way 1 per
cent. Spanish Deferred was a shade flatter, but
Russian stocks remain fairly supported. Other-
wise this market is dull. At 4 o'clock, Mexican
Bonds were quoted 261 to 1; Peruvian Deferred,
58 to 60; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cent. Scrip, 2
to 1 dia. •t Granada Active, 211 to 221; ditto De-
ferred, 9to 91; Spanish Deterred Threes, 221 to
1; the Certificates, 51 to 6 per cent Sales are thus
marked :—Austrian Old Five per Cent. Bonds, 861

The amount of the precious metals taken out by
the Bosphorus, which was fixed to leave Southamp-
ton to-day for the Cape and India, is only about
9,0001., destined for the Mauritius.
We are in possession of a remarkable return, com-
piled with great care, showing the amount of specie
and bullion taken from this country by the outward
Indian steamers of the Peninsular and Oriental
Steam Navigation Company during the six months
ending the 30th June, 1833. The results are suffi-
ciently striking, as the statement exhibits a drain, in
the period in question, of no less than 1,886,6091., of
which 1,490,140!. was in silver, and the rest in gold.
Silver appears to be constantly in course of. abbot•p-
tion in the east, as little ever returns. The sub-
joined tabular extract of the statement is interest-
ing:

Besides the sums carried to India by the vessels of
the Peninsular and Oriental Company, there have
been further shipments, chiefly of silver, by the
steamers of the General Screw Steam Shipping Com-
pany and by sailing vessels.
The settlement in the railway share market fairly
commenced to-day, and the account proves an ex-
ceedingly limited one. The contangos have ruled
very light, and are, in fact, nearly nominal. So far
as the limited business connected with the settling
enables us to judge, the dealers appear to be
" bears," against " bulls" out of the house. Stock
being scarce, it would appear that the public must
have been steady buyers of railway stocks latterly, as
many advances formerly made by the banks and
others on the deposit of railway securities, arc under-
stood to have been lately re-paid. Money being so
remarkably easy in the Stock Exchange, the mem-
bers have of course every inducement to adopt this
course. The subjoined statement shows the terms
upon which the settling has generally been carried
on—viz.:

Landon and North Western 1.16 to 3-16 rooting°.

Oxford and Worceeters 1.32 to 3.32 ditto.
London and South Western 1-16 to ditto.
Evd Lancashire' l-32 to 1-16 ditto.
PArwicks
French shares continue scarce, and have com-
manded rather heavy backwardations—viz., North-
ern., 1-16 to d backwardation ; Strasbourg. and
Lyons, 1.32 to 3-32 ditto. Northern. continue
chiefly wanted.

After the late rise in tallow, there has been a good
deal of selling during the last two days, and the
