COMMERCIAL' 4. MARKETS.
MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Two o'Ckwk.—The funds are heavy, and with a
rather marked tendency downwards. The market closed at
93) to f, ex. die., for Consols, which is a decline of e upon
the opening quotations, and those of yesterday. Exchequer
BlUe, however, have again advanced, and are now lls. to 140.

ri•Tati4T stocks, which have been lately rather in demand at
improving prices, have fallen to-day, the Two-and-a-half per
cents. to GO to 4 ; the Fours, to 924 to 1. The prices, it
appears, come lower :from Amisterdam. Mexicans remain
231 to 1. Spanish Fives, 26 to 1 ; the Threes, 371 to.l. Per-
taffuese are down from 364 to 74.
The Bank of England averages, made up for the
week ending the sth inst., show the following results on
comparison with those for the week preceding :—ln
the department of issue a decrease of 44,2401., the
average hues standing at the lut date, 28,269,1051.
In the active circulation a decrease of 121,0051.,
the average of the notes out being 19,866,8051., and the notes
on hand in the banking department 8,402,3004. In public de-
posits an increase of 164,9281., the average held being
8,612,4881. In private deposits an increase of 286,1321., tlie
average held being 8,303,5231. In " other " securities an
increase of 290,3901., the average being 13,853,2121. In
coin and bullion, a decrease of 5,2691 , the average held In
both departments being 16,002,8731. In seven-day bills,
increase 3,1281., the average out 895,4831. In the Rut •
decrease of 47,7641., the average of the fund bring 3,432,2031.
The most particular feature about these returns is the large
decrease in the Rest. Had such a decrease followed upon a
quarter day, or upon the payment of a dividend on Beak
Wok, it might have been intelligible. As it is, with an in-
crease of securities, which should represent a more extended
and beneficial employment of money, and to the extent an
increase of profits-, this decrease of On reserve fund of aeeu-
mulated profits is difficult to understand, or explain. The
continued decline in the active circulation is sufficiently ac-
counted for by the increase of deposits.
