I.IONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Two o'Ciock.—We had a fair business in public
securities, with prices firm and looking up in the
early part of the morning. Consols were done as
high as 86; for money and account. But the
market became flat immediately after the ap-
pearance • of the second edition of the Daily
News, with an account (by electric telegraph)
of intelligence at Paris of the serious con-
flagration at Milan. The accounts generally
from the Continent read so favourably before,
as to inspire more confidence in a peaceful solution of
internal and external difficulties and hostilities. But
it is feared that this event will serve to influme still
more fiercely the war in Italy, but just partially
suspended by an armistice. Consols are now 861 to
for money, and 86, to for time. Reduced
Threes, 86'4 to 5. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.,
l 7 to „. Exchequer Bills, 31s. to 355. premium.
Bank Stock, 170.
The foreign market continues quiet, with scarcely
any alteration in prices. We quote Mexican, 16; to
17. Brazilian rather better, at 70 to 2. New Grenada,
115 to 125. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 435
