There is evidently a wide-spread opinion that
the monetary disturbance in France is not,
yet at an end, and that the speculative ex-
cesses, which have committed her to such large
monetary engagements with foreign countries,
will yet tell upon her resources. Apart from
the exhausting expenditure connected with the late
war, it meet not be overlooked that the resources of
the nation have been diminished through the partial
failure of the grain, silk, and wine crops, and that
Ave and a half millions sterling of the last loan
remain to be paid up at the rate of a million and a
halt monthly, including the instalment falling due
this month. The final payment will take place in
February next.
Next month will witness the deduction of the half-

TEORIDAY ETZWING.

The tends this morning opened heavily, the weekly
went "et the Bank of England being generally
webbed with apprehension. Most persons refused
lebelleve that a further rise in the rates of discount
Geld be seriously contemplated ; but, owing to the
sitting of the directors proving extraordinarily pro-
beeted, Stock Exchange business won greatly checked.
Al nag* at two o'clock, it was announced that the
suit bed broken up without making any alteration
in the hum and the funds temporarily attained a
rally of newly 1 per cent. Notwithstanding news of
a recovery at Paris, fresh sales were soon pressed,,
and the four o'clock quotations were per cent
below those of yesterday. AU the Stock Exchange
markets closed heavily. In many of the leading
railway stooks the fall amounted to 1 per coat.
Considering that to-day was " settling-day " in
the Consol market, the funds may be said to have
retained considerable steadiness, which is mainly
traceable to the belief that the public will continue
to absorb stock on any decline. Nevertheless, the
late disposition to operate for higher prices in Consols
and railway shares has received a cheek, owing to
the continued high value of money, to the unsatis-
factory state of affairs in France, and to the reckless
circulation of reports of meroentile embarrassments.
In the discount market to-day the demand was
again rather lees active, and there was a fair supply
of money on offer.
Consols, which were quoted at 4 o'clock yesterday
921 to 93 for money, receded this morning to 921 to
/, rallied to 921, and were last quoted 921. The
price foe the new account terminating on the 4th
' Dec. declined in the morning to 93 to 1, advanced to
931, "buyers," and closed at 921 to 93. The official
business report is as follows :—Three per Cent.
Consols, for money, 921,;, 1, 93; ditto, for account,
4th Dec., 93/, 931, 93, 931. Three per Cent. Re.
, locoed, 911, 1,1, /. New Three per Cents., 921, 92,
921, 921. Long Annuities, expiring in January,
1860, 2 13.16. Bank Stock, 214. Three-and-a-Half
per Cent. Exchequer Bonds, falling payable at par
in 1868, 981.
Exchequer Bills remain flat, and closed at 2s. dia.
to 2e. prem. Exchequer Bonds declined about 1 per
cont., being quoted 98 to 1. India Bonds were dealt
in at par to 4s. prem.
In the foreign stock market speculative attention is
still mainly directed to Turkish Six per Cents., which
have fallen with Consols. Sales were pressed
throughout the day, and the 4 o'clock quotation was
liet to 901, being surly 1 per cent below that of
goy. After the the hones the pries was
tno. The Osseenteed FOC, per Cents. wen

Tits transudes referred to yesterday, for dis with.
ewe' of 10,0001. Ns the Bank for the Ovatiseet,

Iwas not completed, owing to the fact that the para.
oaks dseariptisra of gold lying next for sale in the
Bank was not the kind needed by the intending exporters. The remittance wee destined for a g
on the Continent; bat the transaction remains
purpose
present in abeyance. Although there have
been no withdrawals of gold from the Bank during
the last few days, however, there are symptoms that
the demand will shortly revive to a moderate extent,
unless some large imports of the precious metal take
place. _ _ _
