The stock markets are dull to-day, and the vari-
ations in quotations are mostly in an unfavourable
direction. The bargains which have been recorded
consist chiefly of sales. Consols have declined
1-16 to 4 per nolt., wjile the reduction in British
lines ranges from 4to I. Some foreign bonds are
also Batter, but the shares of the financial compa-
nies are well maintained.
The demand for money to-day is moderate, and
the supply large. Nevertheless, no transactions
are reported in choice bills below 3 per cent., the
Bank minimum. The r it<- in the Stock Exchange
for short loans on government securities
has declined to 2 to 24 per oent.
At Paris to-day, according to Mr. Renter's tele-
gram, the Three per Cent. Bente. opened at
661 r. 35c., being sc. lower than yesterday.
Consols are now quoted 904 to 1, ex div., for
money, and 904, ex div., for the account (July 6).

A meeting of the bolder. of the Greek Bonds
issued in 1824 and 1825 will be held at the London

The following notice relating to the Venezuela
Loan of 1864 was forwarded to the Stuck Exchange
yesterday by the General Credit Company :
The Gummi Credit and Finance Company of London
(Limited) an in esesipt of advices from their egos* Messrs.
N. L. Bonitos and Co., dated La Guerra, 2.54 h Mae, 18115,

The mail from Guayaquil has brought a remit-
tance of 5861. on account of the dividends on the
debt of Ecuador.
The complaint urged against the Italian govern-
ment by the bondholders of the Sardinian Loan of
1851 came to a hearing before the Committee of
the Stock Exchange yesterday, and, after discussion,
its further consideration was adjourned for a fort-
night to allow time for the production of docu-
mentary and other evidence.
Messrs. Thomson, Boner and Co. have announced
the Peruvian dividends due e lst of July, and
have also iatimated, with ref the
to the Loan of
1866, that bonds for redemption at par, amounting
to 250,0001., will be drawn on the 3rd July, and the
numbers drawn be then published.
About 9,0001. in gold was bought by the Bank
yesterday. A considerable amount will probably be
sent in during the next few days, unless the de-
mand for Spain—to which country a large portion
of the repent supplies has been seat—should sud-
denly revive. At the moment there is no inquiry
for that quarter.
The arrival of as much as 373,5001. in specie was
announced yesterday. The China, from Boston, has
brought 106,0001. ; the Atrato, from the West
Indies, 193,5001. ; and the Edinburgh, from New
York, 74,0001.
The steamer Shannon, for the West ladies, will
take out 0n1y1,6001. in gold.
It is a somewhat remarkable fact that, notwith-
standing the fall in the value of money, the foreign
erebanges remain extremely steady. Yesterday
afternoon the rate for bills on Paris was a trifle
easier. Subjoined is our usual list:
Amsterdam, 3 month., 11.191 to ; ditto, 3 days,
11.171 to 18 ; Rotterdam, 3 smooths, 11.19/ to 12 ; Ans.

The weekly return of the Bank of France shows
the following changes :
Coin and bullion
Bills discounted
Government deposits lncrease 850,000
Notes is circulation lecture 1,130,000
Private deposits
Advances
There is, at last, a distinct revival in the business
of the French Bank, as shown by the large increase
iu the discounts. The decline iu the bullion and
deposits point in the same direction, and it is thence
to be inferred that the value of money has for the
present reached its lowest point on the other side of
the Channel, if not here also.
The subjoined report on the bullion market is
from the circular of Messrs. Sharps and
Wilkins :
We have again to report a slight decline in the
value of bar silver. The market, even at the pretest emote-
lion se. Id. standard, cannot be 000sidered fine. as sales are
only effected with considerable difficulty. There is no re-
newal of the twins demand, and the inquiry for Holland
bas decidedly slackened during the pest fortnight. The
Mexican dollars ex Shannon have beau sold at 4s. 1111, at
which, tempted by the low prim, a few parolisaere same

rime from that weeny. Spain hes absorbed the greater
