MONEY MARKET.--{THEE DAY.)

An o'Clsoon.

The markets for public securities show a slightly
better tendency to-day, and the general course of
prices is favourable. Purchases have been induced
by the absence of any riot in connexion with the
execution of the Fenian at Manchester on Satur-
day, as well as by the announcement that the
French troops are about to leave Rome. Con-
sols are in request, and have risen per cent.
A similar movement has occurred in the
New Three per Cents. and Three per Cents.,
Reduced. Most of the home railway stocks are
unchanged, but foreign bonds met with inquiry at
an improvement. Italian have advanced, upon the
notification that the government is prepared to
provide the necessary funds for the payment of the
next coupon in gold. The amount of business ge-
nerally is moderate.

The demand for money is moderate, and the
supply large. With a few exceptions, however,
choice bills are not taken below 1# to 11 per cent.
Consols are quoted 943 to 3, with div., for
money, and 931 to 1, ex div., for the account
(December 5). The Three per Cents. Reduced and
New Three per Cents are at 921 to 93.
The railway market is inactive, and prices are
unchanged, with the exception of a rise of per
cent. in Great Eastern stock, and a reduction to the
same extent in Great Western and South Eastern.
Subjoined are the quotations :—Metropolitan, 118
to} ; Great Western 44 to 1; London and North
Western, 1131 to 1 ; Midland, 1121 to # ; Lanca-
shire and Yorkshire, 1211 to 1 ; Caledonian, 731
to 74 ;'South Eastern, 651 to 1 ; Great Eastern,
301 to 1 ; Great Northern, 1051 to 1061 ; ditto A,
110 to ; London, Chatham, and Dover, 171 to
18 ; North British, 321 to 1 ; Brighton, 51 to 1 ;
York and North Midland, 90 to 91.
Foreign stocks are firm, and a rise of to 1 per
cent. has occurred in moat of the speculative de-
scriptions. Spanish securities are in especial
request. Turkish bonds of 1862 are quoted 62 to
63 ; ditto of 1865, 321 to 33 ; Greek, 12 to 1 ;
Spanish Passive, 22 to # ; ditto New Three per
Cents., 33# to ; ditto Certificates, 183 to ;
Italian of 1861, 451 to 46 ; Egyptian of 1864, 83
to 84 ; and Mexican. 141 to 1. _ _ .

American securities have declined to per
cent. The 5-20 Bonds are quoted 70} to ; Erie
Railway shares, 46 to ; and Illinois Central, 841
to 85,k.

Atlantic Cable shares are inquired for, and
slightly higher. Anglo-American are at 181 to
; and Atlantic Telegraph Eight per Cent. Pre-
ference, 3 15-16 to 4 1-16.

The tone of the market for Bank shares is un-
favourable. London and Westminster are called
67 to 69, being 11. lower ; Imperial Ottoman, Ito
oi din., showing flatness ; Chartered Mercantile of
India, 27 to 29, a rise of 1/. ; Union of London,
33 to 34 ; Alliance, 12 to 11 dis. ; and London
and County, 50i to 61i. . .

. -
The financial shares are without variation.
International, 2! to 2g dia. ; London, 24if to 23i
; General Credit, 2} to 2} dia. ; and Credit
Foncier, 6} to ci die. _ _

The bills have been returned of Messrs. Edward
Lloyd and Co., merchants, of Austinfriars. The
transactions of the house, which is both old and re-
spectable, have been chiefly in connection with the
Mediterranean. The amount of the liabilities has
not yet been stated, but is supposed to be large.
By telegram the arrival is announced at Adelaide,
on the 13th of October, of Messrs. Anderson,
Thomson and Co.'s Orient liner liataLs, from
Plymouth, after a, quick passage—viz., 66 days.
It would appear that the course of the rail-
way market this week is likely to be chiefly
regulated by the state of the speculative "account,"
as it will be developed at the settlement, prepara-
tions for which will begin on Wednesday.
About 20,000 sovereigns were withdrawn from
the Bank on Saturday for Egypt.
The Ripon, from Alexandria, has brought
17,3381. in specie • and the Briton, from the Cape
of Good Hope, 5,00/.
Subjoined is a statement (from Mr. Slaughter's
Weekly List) of the calls falling due on railway and
miscellaneous undertakings in the month of De-
cember, so far as they have yet been advertised.
