MONEY MARKIST.-(TBM DAV.

Two dOLoow.

The stock markets are generally somewhat firmer
to-day, owing Chiefly to a belief that
there is no immediate prospect of any
further advance in the value of money. Console
and financial shares are unaltered, but English
railway and foreign securities are better in some
cams. The shares of " Overend, Gurney, and
Co. (Limited)" have again risen.
The discount market is quieter to-day, and the
supply of money has increased, yet the rate for
the best paper is maintained at 5 per cent. There
is a fair demand for short loans on English goverc-
-
meat securities in the Stock Exchange, at 4} to 5
percent.
At Paris to-day, according to Mr. Reuters

We have now once more returned to what
may be regarded as a good conservative rate
for money, and the fact that the charge at
the Bank of England is at present 2 per cent.
above that of the Bank of France is likely to have
a favourable effect upon the exchanges. On the
other hand, due regard must be had to the inevit-
able effect upon the money market and upon the
bullion movement of the renewed and important
rise in the price of cotton, in consequence of which
silver is being remitted more largely to India, and
there are threatenings of ocassioaal withdrawals of
gold for exportation to Egypt and the other new
cotton fields. Moreover, there is a sensible revival
of trade in many parts of the kingdom, and in
especial, a marked influx of orders for a large
number of commodities for America. The first
consequence of such orders usually is an increased
demand upon us for the means of payment for the
raw material of our manufactures. For the return
of the money thus embarked, together with its
superadded profits, we have to wait longer, and
meanwhile the value of loanable capital is natur-
ally affected.
The successive telegraphic announcements from
Vienna, to the effect that •by retrenchments to the
extent of 27 millions (florins) the budget for 1865
effects a balance between income and expenditure,"
and that "the government will, in a few days, pub-
lish a financial statement of the expenditure and
revenue of the empire," may probably be regarded
as forerunners of the projected new Austrian loan.
The change in the condition of our money market,
however, is calculated to protect it from several of
these threatened demands.
About 30,0001. in gold was sent into the Bank
