MONEY MARKET-THIS DAY.

Two o'CLooz.

The funds to-day are fiat, with little business.
Prices are now quoted 1.10 to I per cent.
lower than they closed yesterday. Pending
the result of the debates in parliament to-
night, there is little disposition to enter
into speculative operations. The government
broker continues to make small investments. In the
other departments of the Stock Exchange great dul-
ness also prevails.

Console for the 3rd June are now quoted 941
to 1, being the same as they opened. The only
intermediate variation has consisted of a temporary
improvement to 971 to 1. For money the present
quotation is 971 to;. The Three per Cents. Reduced
have been dealt in at 951 to ; the New Three per
Cents., at 96t to 98 ; the New Two-and•a-
Half per Cent. at 80}; Bank Stock at 221 to 2221;
Exchequer Bills, March, at 41s. prem. ; ditto,
June, at 375. to 40s. prem. ; India Bonds at
22e. to 245. prem.; and Exchequer Bonds, 1859, at
1011 to 1011.

The New Indian Four per Cent. Debentures have
been dealt in at 1001 and the scrip at 1001
Turkish Six per Cents, opened this morning with
some fiatneese, being first marked 98} for the new
account, but a recovery to 964 to 97 hu since
taken place. In other foreign securities there
has been a moderate number of transactions, and
prices in most cues are fairly supported. Wes an
recorded u follows :—Brazilian Four-and•a-Half
per Cents, 1024 ; Buenos Ayres Six per Cents, for
account, 821; Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents.,
921 (exch. 25fr.) ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents.,
651 (exch. 12fi.) ; ditto, Four per Cent. Certifs.,99e
to t ; Equador Provincial Land Warrants, 3j; New
Granada Two-and-a-Quarter per Cent. Active Bonds,

21; Mexican Three per Cents., 204 ; Peruvian
Four-and•a-Half per Cents., for account, 88 to 881 ;
ditto Three per Cents., Glf ; ditto Foar-and•a-Ralf
per Cent. Dollar Bonds, 63 (exchange 45.); Russian
Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1011 ; Turkish Six per
Cents., 981 ; ditto for account (May 31), 984, 981,
964 to 981 ; Venezuela Four-and-Three-Quarters per
Cents., 384 ; ditto for account, 374 to 371; ditto De-
ferred Two per Cents., 141.
At Paris to-day (Friday) according to Mr.
Renter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rents.
opened at 69fr. 65c. for the account, being the same
as they closed on Wednesday.
The amount of gold withdrawn from the Bank
yesterday, for exportation, was no less than 120,0001.,
from which must be deducted about 2,0001. pur-
chased by the establishment. Considering that,
during the week ending with Wednesday, at least
half a million sterling was taken out, it is evident
that the drain has reached a point calculated to
exercise some influenoe upon the money market.
The last published return showed a decrease of
nearly 400,0001. ; consequently, fully a million
sterling has been sent away within a fort
night, in addition to the various arrivals. The
207,8161. in gold by the steamer Teviot was delivered
yesterday, and nearly the whole was purchased
for transmission to the Continent. Owing to the
circumstance of the 80,6131. in gold by the Avon
not having come to hand until late yesterday after-
noon, the purchase of this supply for exportation
has been deferred until to-day.
The Morning Star has arrived from Melbourne,
with 4,783 ounces of gold, worth about 19,1001., and
the Arago, from New York, with 17,2001. in specie.
The Stirling has arrived from China, with
414,5001 be. of tea.
The public sales of tea yesterday resulted in a re-
duction in price.
After the recognised Stock Exchange hours yester-
day afternoon London and North Western Railway
stock fell to 931 to 1. Manchester, Sheffield, and Lin-
colnshire, on the other hand, rose to 38 to 39. The
cause of these fluctuations was a statement that the
latter company has obtained the requisite sanction
for an independent entrance into Manchester.
The London and North Western Railway traffic
return presents this week a decrease of 6,78 W. ; the
Great Western a decrease of 1,1461. • the Great
Northern an increase of 1,4761.; the London and
South Western an increase of 3641. ; the Midland a
decrease of 1,6551. ' • the South Eastern an inc se
of 381.; the North Eastern a decrease of 8631. ; the
Lancashire and Yorkshire an increase of 111. • the
East Lancashire a decrease of 3341.; the Eastern
Counties an increase of 1,3381. ; the Manchester,
Sheffield, and Lincolnshire a decrease of 3991.
The annual meeting of proprietors of the National
Provincial Bank of England was held yesterday, at
which a bonus of 10 per cent. was declared on the
whole of the paid up capital, inclusive of the last in-
stalment on the new shares received in July Let.
After deducting the bonus and dividend for 1857, a
sum of 12,0471. remains to be carried to the reserve
fund, which will then reach 187,3801. The bonne
will be payable in July, with the dividend to be de-
clared for the half-year ending 30th of June next.
The profits divided for 1867 will be 14,0131. more
than those distributed in 1858.

The funds opened this morning with increased
heaviness, owing chiefly to the apprehensions excited
by the drain of gold. At one period a fresh redue-
lion of per cent. was quoted. A. it was found,
however, that the influential operates. who have
been selling during the last few days did not again
come forward, more conlidetice was displayed in the
afternoon, and a recovery of nearly I per cent. front
the lowest point was attained. Towards the close
there were again indications of heaviness, but the
latest quotations were 1-18 to iper cent, above those
of yesterday.

At the Bank to-day the applications for money
were again limited, but in the open market the in-
quiry somewhat increased, and the instances in
which high-class bills are negotiated below 21 to 21
per cent, were comparatively rare. In the Stock
Exchange short loans on government securities are
still obtainable at 2 per cent.
Console, which closed yesterday at 911, "sellers,"
for the 3rd of June, opened this morning at 971 to
1, receded to 971, " sellers," advanced to 971,
buyers," and closed at 971 to 7-16. For money
the last price was 971 to 1. The official business
report is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for
mousy, 971, 5, ; ditto, for account (3rd June),
971, 1, ; Three per Cent. Reduced, 96t, 1, 96,
951, 96; New Three per Cents., 981, 95t, 961,
1951 ; Thirty Years Annuities, expiring in October,
1859, 1 7-16; Bank Stock, 2221; India Stock, 225,
2231.
Amongst the purchases to-day was another by the
government broker.
The New Four per Cent. Indian Debentures were
dealt in at 1001 to 1, and the scrip at 1001 to 1.
Exchequer Bills were in demand, and slightly
dearer, the March bone being dealt in at 40e. to 445.
prem. ; and the June at 375. to 41s. prem.
In the foreign stock market the variations were
almost solely confined to Turkish Six per MAL,
which opened with great heaviness, owing to the
continued rumours of negotiations for a new
loan, coupled with the Montenegro difficulty.
The first transactions were at 965 and 96
for money, and 961 for the 31st inst. The
latest quotations were 96/ to # for the present
settlement, and 961 to 1 for the end of the month,
being about 1 per cent. below those of yesterday.
Peruvian Four-and-a-Ralf per Cents. were quoted
861 to t ; the Throe per Cents., 61 to 62; and the
Dollar Bonds, 621 to 63. Other foreign stocks
were quiet, and, in some oases, sellers predomiaatsd.
There were transactions to-day in the Auervisa
Uribarnm Four-and-s Half per Coat. Bonds at 61.

MINZI-THIS DAY.

Two o'Clocz.

The mining market remains stagnant. In the
Stock Exchange no transactions are officially re-
ported. Business is altogether upon mach too
limited a scale to affect prices, which remain
nominally unaltered.
In foreign and colonial mining securities there is
also an entire absence of movement. . .

Owing chiefly to the settlement, busker la the
mining market to-day was extremely limited. Wheal
Edward shares were more offered, and ehesper.
Other descriptions were nominally quoted the same
as yesterday. There are inquiries, however, for
some of the heavy dividend slimes, holders of whieh
are reluctant sellers at present prime.
