COMMERCIAL & MARKETS.

MONEY MARK ET & Crl Y INTELLIGENCE.
Two o'Cloek.—The funds show rather more firm-
neve, but the dealings arc not of much consideration.
Consols have rated nearly all morning at 81 to 1,
and have been done at 841, but they have
now receded to 834 to 4, b.,th fur money and
time. Reduced Threes, 821 to 4. Three-and-a-
quarter per Cents., 837 to 4. Exchequer Bills,
323. to 363. premium. Bank Stock, 191 to 3. We
have a singular report, in private letters, from Paris,
that one of tie, Bonapartes who are members of the
National Assembly is likely to be elected the Presi-
dent of that body, on the expiration of tie period,
now within a few days of the tern, for which the
present President was appointed.
Foreign secivities remain nearly as before, as to
both Prix s and business. Spanish Fives are 12 to 1;
the Threw, 22 to 3 ; Pas..ive, 31 to 1. Portuguese,
16 to 17. The Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents.
421 to 34; the Fours, 624 to 34. Belgian,
38 to 62. New Grenada, 12 to 13. Mexican,
15 to 16. Peruvian, 33 to 7. Brazilian, 67 to 70.
Russian, 86 to 9.
The returns of the Bank of France for the week
ending the let inst., show a decrease of more than six
millions of francs in the treasury account, as compared
wit) the previous week. The govern neat had little
more than nineteen millions to its credit, instead of
twenty-six millions and more before.

R.IILWAYS.—The share market is still heavy,
and with little business. The impression is, however,
that the market will improve next week. London
and North Westerns are quoted lower, and also the
New Quarters. Brighton and Caledonians are much
the same.

CORN.—CHIPPENIIAL June 2.—Beet samples of
Wheat were saleable, at • reduction of Is. per qr. The bie.
sintes in Barley was done at nominal prices. Oats under-
west a reduction of Is.; but Beans and Peas followed the
tone of previous markets.
EXETER, June 2.—We can note no alteration in the price
grain to-day ; supplie', }Lowe. se, of all descriptions have been
limited, and the demand small. We have had heavy falls el
rain within the list day or two, and crops are looking well.
Potatoes are very promising, and • considerable breadth
sown. The Hay harvest has partially begun, and the crops
are considered good.
LINCOLN, June 2.—We had a geed supply of Wheat at
our market to•day, which was taken off at fully 2.5. la
money than this day se'nnight. Nothing doing in Barley.
Very few Oats showing, at barely late currency. Beans
request, at late rate.. Our farmers speak well of the Wheat
crepe in this district, If this fine weather oontinues, it will
be in ear in a week from this time. Wheat, red, 43a. to 48e.;
white, 464. to 61e. Oats, 17s. to 241. Beans, 40e. to 435.
RIPON, June I.—We had a tolerable supply at this mar-
ket. Every description of grain dull in sale, at last week's
prices. White Wheat. 61. 6,1. to Is. ; red. 6s. 3d. to 6e. Sd.
per bushel. Barley, 325. to 365. Oats, 20s. to 255. per qr.
Beans, ss. to 6s. per bushel.
Romer, June I.—There was a very thin attendance at
our market this day, and hardly any sales were made. This
farmers seemed quite disposed to hold back rather than
submit to the present pricei. L rider these circumstances,
we must consider all kinds of grain as about tOe same as lass
week.

SOUTHAMPTON, June 2.-With a moderate attendaree at
market today, there was but a short supply of Wheat,
which, however, met with a slow demand, and the trade
ruled exceedingly dull, without alteration from last week's
prices. In other articles there is a steady consumptive de-
mand. Barley and Oats must, however, be called 6d. to le.
per qr. cheaper. Beaus unaltered in value.
WAKEFIELD, June 2.-We have had during the week
fine rains, which must prove of great benefit to the crops
generally. The arrival of Wheat is large for this day's
market, the sale is less free, and we reduce our quota-
tions Is per quarter. Barley nominal. Osta and bhell-
ing st. ady. Beans without variation. Other article' se
before. The following are present prices :Wheat, per quarter,

anything d ing in Hops in this market, and prices may be
quoted quite nominal. The plant k,cps growing fascia

moment.

WOOL—LEEDS, June 2.—The uncertainty as to
the result of the German Wool fairs tends a great deal to
r,atriet tiprratir.ns in the foreign market,—the current rates

weeks. In English, transaction► have been very dull this
wet k, and prices have still a downwud tendency.
