MONEY MARIBT-Tll.lB DA X.

Two o'OLooz.

The funds to-day are firm at yesterday's advance,
with little business. The government broker has
made another purchase of about 17,0001.
Reduced Three per Cent. stock, on public account.
English railway stocks retain an upward tendency
but French are weaker.
Consols are quoted 981 to 3 for money and the
7th Dec., and 981 to for the 11th Jan. The
Three per Cents. Reduced have been dealt in
at 981 to 1 ; the New Three per Cents., at 981 to
the Five per Cents., at 1161; India Bonds, at 11s.
to 14r. Fem. ; the March Exchequer Bills, at 395.
prem.; ditto, June, at 335. to 361.. prem.
Foreign stocks are generally firm, with i
a fair amount of business. The New Turk-
ish Loan maintains the improvement which was
established yesterday afternoon, the scrip of the
first series being quoted 1 to 1 die., and that of the
second series, 3 to # prem. The Six per Cents, of 1864
are firmer at 92 to # ; Venezuelan Bonds continue
to meet with some attention. Other descriptions
remain strong. Sales are recorded as follows :
—Brazilian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1858, 961,
ex div. ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 661
(exchange 128.) ; Equador New Consolidated Bonds,

f die. ; ditto second series, for account, 3 prem.;
Venezuela Five per Cents., for account, 43, 421 ;
ditto, Deferred Two per Cents., 181, 16/.
The Scrip of the New Chilian Loan has risen from
to $ per cent. prem.
One of the principal features yesterday was a fresh
rise in the stocks of the three great English railway
companies which have jest ceased hostilities. From
the moment

enced g peaces
steady and unchecked advance. Although moral
considerations are occasionally ignored, railway
shareholders are rarely insensible to arguments based
upon pecuniary grounds. There is room, therefore,
for the hope that the rise of several hundreds of
thousands of pounds which has taken place during
the last few days in the property of the three com-
panies recently contending, will furnish an addi-
tional guarantee for the maintenance of harmonious
relations for the future, since it is clear that the pre-
vious depreciation was almost solely caused by the
reckless competition. The lanes which the com-
panies have sustained through carrying passengers
and goods at absurdly low fares, in order to damage
each other, form a distinct but equally important
item in the account.
The increased demand which has been noticed
in the discount market daring the last day
or two continued yesterday. Few bills, however
good, were negotiated below 21 to 21 per cent., ancH
as a rule, the latter fraction formed the minimum.
The applications at the Bank were more numerous.
A very large number of bills fall dm to-day or to-
morrow.

peferred Bonds at 29 to 31. These bonds will beginuguese

1862, and represent the 25 per cent. which was'
deducted from the interest of the last six months of
1848, and the following dividends, until that of

De5.'31,1862.
