COMMERCIAL ef MARKETS.

MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Two o'clock.—The funds were still in a falling
state at the commencement of business, with Consols

as low as 871 to :. We have, however, a re-
action now upon these extreme quotations, and
prices are called 87; sellers, both for money and
account. The troubled character of affairs in Ireland
is the chief cause assigned for the disturbance in the
market. Reduced Threes, are 87'4 to Three-sod-
a-quarter per Cents. 871 to 84. Exchequer Bills, 445.
to 48s. premium. Bank Stock, 19G to 8.
In foreign stocks we have the same quietness, with
prices nearly as before. Spanish Fives, 111 to 12 ;
the Threes, 213 to 2. Passive, 3 to 1. Portuguese,
18 to 10. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 44:, to
51 ; the Fours, 71 to 2. Danish, 68 to 72. Russian,
98 to 100. Belgian, 66 to 70. Mexican, 161 to 17.
Brazilian, 69 to 71. Chilian, 81 to 4. Peruvian,
30 to 3. Venezuela, 14 to 17.

The Bank of England directors met at their weekly
board to-day, and have just broken up, without
making any reduction in the minimum rate of dis-
count, as so confidently expected.
