MONEY MARKET.

THIS DAY.

Two o'Ctocs.

The business in the English fai;da" to-day has
again included a fair amount of operations for invest-
mcnt, both on public and private account, and prices
have been firmly supported. There have also been a
few time purchases in Consols at a higher figure than
for some days past. The advices from Paris of
yesterday evening notice additional strength
and an improvement in the French funds, the .
continued firmness of which is regarded with
much satisfaction, as a proof of the confi-
' deuce felt by monied menin the stability of the
government, the more especially as the attention of
parties inclined to "bear' in this market has of late
been mainly directed to the other side of the channel
in search of support to their operations.

day's range of 964 to I for money, 961 to for the
