We understand that this consists chiefly of doubloons

Some disappointment is exprresed at the non-
receipt of any specie per the Canada, from New
York. The exchange on London, however, main-
tains its late improvement, and the money market
was easier.

Another auction of the foreign redeemable debt of
Spain is to take place at Madrid on the 31st instant,
for which purpose 1,875,000 reales have been assigned
by the government. Tenders will be received is

TOMMY Brunie.
The funds were rather flatter this morning, owing
to an increased demand for money. In the Stock
Exchange the demand wu stimulated by the settle-
' ment of the account in Consols. The pressure in the
discount market was also considerable, partly in
anticipation of the instalment which falls due next
Thursday on the new loan. Generally the money
market is tight. Nevertheless, the stock market is
the afternoon exhibited renewed firmness, and the
closing quotations were almost as good as thaw of
yesterday. Upon the whole, the fends most be con-
sidered extremely well supported.
Consols for money, which were quoted at 4 o'cloak
yesterday 913, receded this morning to 9:3 to 3, and
closed at 913 to 3. For the new account of the 10th
of April the price ranged between 921 and 923, and
was finally quoted 92} to 3. At the conclusion of
the settlement the rate of " continuation " advanced
to 3 per cent. Inasmuch, however, as the Bank of
England makes advances on government securities at
6 per cent., and the applications to that establish-
ment for loans have to-day been to only a very mo-
derate exteat, this high rate of "continuation" has
been mainly a matter of arrangement between
the operators for a rise and the lenders
of money in the Stook Exchange, or the
dealers who are oversold. Many of tke lat-
ter are temporarily stort of stock, having
made sales in anticipation of the supply to be de-
rived every fortnight from the new loan, to which
they have subscribed. In other words, they have
sold Consols against new Consols scrip held by them.
The effect of these arrangements to, that the placing
of the new stock is being eatisfactorily adjusted, and
that the high rats of "antanp" usrad by Coon&
must not be regarded as indicating any extra.
ordinary abundance of stock in the market.
The ofaial businea report is. as follows :—Thres per
Cut. Console, for money, 911. 3,1. 3. 3 I dittos let
amount, 10th April, 923, 923; New Two-sad-a-

The new Cote Scrip shoed at 1 9-16 to 1 11.16
prem., and the Exchequer Scrip at 13 to 13 prem.
The June Exchequer Bills were quoted Is. die. to
Is. prem. ; Exchequer Bonds 983 to 31 and India
Bends 6e. to 2e die. _ .

Foreign stocks were generally steady, but inactive.
There is still considerable inquiry for Spaniels Pas.
sive Bonds, which were today marked as hi has
71. All Spanish securities are very firm. lit the
continental market' also the tendency is Womble
as regards these bonds. It is stated that =
chases of them are being made by foreign
who are required to make deposits of cantles sissy
in respect of new undertakings, for the criammeiss at
which competition is now going on at Madrid. These
depoeits must be made in Spanish stock.
The bar silver brought In by the Parana was sold
to-day for India, at sr. Old. per os. standard, being
the mains pries as was realised for the previous
arrival. The dollars were taken for China at lie. 01d.
per oz., being an advance of Id. This rise is chiefly
attributable to the limitrd supply of the coin.
