MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.

COMMERCIAL 4. MARKETS.

Half-past One o'Claek.—The excitement created by
the government letter yesterday, with the authoriza-
tion to the Bank, within certain ill-judged restrictions,
to leave credit free, has not ceased this morning, but,
on the contrary, is causing quite a revolution in stock
values. Consols, which began at 834 to I money, and
83 to time, ascended rapidly to 844, all buyers,
and sellers difficult to rind. The arrival of the Henry
Clay packet ship from New York, without the 200,000
sovereigns advised of by the Sarah Sands, has not
had the slightest effect in depressing the market. The
accounts from the country this morning, so far as they
have been received, and the influence of the banking
movement could be ascertained, are all as favourable
as could be wished. We have advices of shipments
of gold and coin coming forward from various foreign
parts. The bankers in town are discounting more
freely, and recovering some portion of their business,
which has latterly nearly all gone to the Bank of
England. We call Reduced Threes now 824 to ;
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 831 to ,t ; Exchequer
Bills, 255. to 18s. discount.

Foreign stocks have not been much dealt in, but
are all quoted better. Belgian Four-and-a-Half per
Cents., 87 to 9; Brazilian, 75 to 7 ; Danish, 78 to 80;
Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 531 to 41; the
Fours, 811 to 21; Mexican, 171 to 18 ; Spanish Fives,
171 to 18; the Threes, 271 to 81 ; Portuguese, 20
to 2.

Tiro o' Clock.—We have now a reaction, as usual,
upon the extreme rise of prices. Consols have de-
clined to 831, to for money, and 831 to 41 for ac-
count. Exchequer Bills have advanced to 208. to 153.
discount. Reduced Threes are better, at 821 to 31.
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 83,1 to 1.

RAILWAYS.—The share market has been in
rather an excited state, which makes it difficult to
obtain actual quotations for shares. All have im-
proved, and the dealers are now u eager buyers as
for some time past they have been sellers. Dover.

CORN. MARK-LANE, Oct. 23. The harvest
thronghout the United Kingdom may now be considered es
concluded, the crop in the most backward districts being for
the moat part mewed and the weather having been
highly favourable, all descriptions of grain have been har-
vested in fine condition, The breadth of land under Wheat
cultivation was this year larger than usual ; and the yield
per acre being good, and the weight per bushel great,
the crop will doubtless prove more than an average one.—
Barley was also cultivated to a greater extent than usual,
and has proved one of the finest crops ever grown, both as
regards quantity and quality. As, however, a large portion
of the crop is of excellent malting quality, and the stock
of old malt is unusually short, it is to be expected
that a large proportion will be consumed in the
manufacture of this article, and price, consequently will
not decline to so low a point as would otherwise have
been the case. Oats were a defective crop upon some
light soils, but the deficiency is fully compensated for
by an increased yield upon others, and it may
therefore be considered an average crop. Beans and
Peas both suffered much from drought and fly, and
are decidedly short in quantity, but of fair quality.
The breadth of land under potato cultivation in Greet Bri•
min and Ireland is certainly not more that one third of that
usually platted; and, allowing the yield per acre to be good
and the quality of the potato, when dug, to be such as wil '
admit of its being kept for winter consumption, it is to be
feared that, although we have been blessed with boun-
tiful crops of Wheat, Barley, and Oats the aggregate
quantity of fbod produced this year will fall short oltrheirr:
quirements of the country. It is pretty generally admitted
that the quantity of old Wheat remaining in farmers'
hands at the time of harvest was abort of the quantity with
which they are in the habit of meeting the new crop ; and
the stocks of foreign Wheat and Thor in grimily in

Detente, Oct. 12.—We have had a good supply of new
Wheat. The quality proves secondary, and the weight
681 b.. to 69111.. All was rapidly bought up at 465. 6d. to
495. Old Wheat very scarce; prices ars still high, and the
prospect for the future is rather the other way. Wheat, old,
nominal, 625. to .575. Ryr, 30s. to 33.. Peas, quality mid-
dling, 335. to 38s. per imperial quarter.

_ -
ILimacito, Oct. 19.—Several purchases of red Upland
Wheat have been made, 631 b. at 525. 6d. to 53a. 6d. per qr.
on beard, and 535. is still asked, but there are only buyers at
lower prices. For present Bailie shipment little fine Wheat
is offered at 465. to 47.. 6d. per qr. on board. The arrivals
of Sasle Barley continue small ; a parcel of 611 b. per brl. was

purchaaes have been made at 26., to 265. 6d. per qr., 53 to
641 b. per barrel. Black 04s, 361 b., have been sold at 171. to

be had lower. Red and fine white Cloverseed are held
firmly; inferior white can be bought cheaper. Rape-cakes,
deliverable here, fetch full prices ; from the Baltic, they are
offering more freely. There are no Linseed cakes in the
market.

KONIGSBERG, Oct. 15.—The supplies of new Corn con-
tinue unusually limited, and of old Grain only small lots of
mixed Volhyman Wheat, weighing 60ilbs. per bushel, come
to band. These are bought at equal to 495. per qr., free on
board, for Dutch account. Barley and Oats may arrive in
sufficient quantities to satisfy the local demand. White
Per, 36e. 6i per qr., free on board. Beans, of handsome
quality, 301. 6d. per qr. Tares, moderately good, 28s. 6d.

tionate rate,. Freights low, and Wheat might be shipped

CHEESE .:INCRESTER FAIR, Oct. 25.—Abont
430 tons pitched. Trade was brisker than at Weybill or

demand. The average was again 6d. per lb., although we
heard of higher terms being realised for prime animals ;
whilst for inferior the butchers stood out for bld. In lean

is amounted for by the scarcity of keep. The rain, although
it has freshened the pastures, came too late to bo of easeneal

able to young stock and Sheep ; of this latter description of
