MONEY MARKET & cmr INTELLIGENCE.

Hal/-past Ilea o'Cloek.—We have a fiat market to-
day in the funds. Consols are 94t to 4, both for money and
account, at which prices there has been little business stir-
ring. Exchever Bills, 10s. to 12e. premium.
In the Foreign Market the report of certain forgeries being
detected in Mexican bonds of the new issue caused some little
excitement. We are assured that such forgeries have been round
out. Nevertheless, parties generally seem disposed rather to
believe that it is only a repetition of the trick before em-
ployed for alarming the holders of the old bonds, and in-
ducing them to come in and convert. Should there he
anything substantial in the report, the Stock Exchange
Committee will of course look Into the matter. Mexican
Bonds remain without business at 211 to 21 ; Spanish Fives,
26 to 4; the Threes, 37 to 1.
The Belgian government have published the tables
of foreign commerce for the year 1845, which exhibit more
prosperous results than any former year, even than 1844, the
most flourishing of all. The aggregate of imports and ex-
ports amounts to 677 millions of francs, or, in round numbers,
about 27 millions sterling. This is an enormous sum of
values, when calculated pro rata of population. A nation of
four millions only carries on this enormous mass of grain.
Proportionally, the United Kingdom, with a population of
thirty millions, should, imports and exports together, carry
on a foreign commerce of nearly two hundred millions
sterling. The values imported into Belgium represented
367/ millions of francs, being an increase of 59 millions
on 1841. The exports amounted to 3091 millions, increase
241 millions of franca upon 1814; the increase in imports being
19 per cent., of exports 9 per cent. The following tabular
comparison shows the extraordinary progression of Belgian
industry: The army:irate movement of imports and exports
in 1845, shows an increase over
is* of 247 million francs.

RAILWAYS.
The market for shares and scrip is dull, but without
any material fluctuation or depression of prices. Lamond's
auction sale was more thinly attended than usual.
