MONEY MARKET—THIS Da Y.

Two o'CLocw.

The funds to-day are slightly firmer, bat the
mama advance in prices scarcely exceeds 1-16 per
cent., notwithstanding the improvement esta-
blished on the Paris Bourse on Saturday,
and the announcement of the arrival of
upwards of 400,0001. in Australian gold. Little
business is going forward. English railway stocks,
however, retain a tendency towards improvement.
French shares are better.

Consols are quiet, at 97/ and 98 for money and
next Wednesday, and 981, "sellers," for the 7th of
December. The Three per Cents. Reduced have
been dealt in at 981 to 1; the New Three per Cents. at
96} to 1; the New Two-and-a-Half per Cents., at
821 ; Bank Stock at 223/ ; India Stack, at 2261;
the Indian Four per Cent. Debentures of the first
issue, at 99/ ; and the March Exchequer Bills, at
345. prem.

The foreign stock market is also quiet. The new
Turkish loan is steady, the first series being quoted I
die. to par, and the second la to 11 prem. The
Six per Cents. of 1864 are firm, at 921
to 93. Anglo-Peruvian Three per Cents., and the
Uribarren Bonds, as well as Russian stocks, continue
in demand. Bales are recorded as follows :—Brazilian
Old Five per Cents., 1021 ; ditto Feur-and-a-Half
per Ceuta., 1868, 971, 971; Peruvian Uribarren
Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 84, 831, 841; ditto
' Anglo-Peruvian Three per Cents., for account, 73,
74 ; Russian Five per Cents., for account, 1131;
ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 103 ; Turkish
Six per Cents., 1864, 93; ditto for account (Nov.
16), 92i ; ditto Six per Cents., 1868 (scrip of the
first aeries), for account, par.
The Lincolnshire has arrived from Melbourne,
with 105,612 ounoes of gold, worth 422,4001. Her
mails were landed at Penzance yesterday. In-
cluding 153,5001. brought from New York by the
steamers Africa and City of Baltimore, a total of
575,9001. is presented.

In the discount market on Saturday morning there
was an active demand for money; and, apart from
transactions amongst the dealers themselves, the
minimum rate for &at-class bills wu 21 per cent.
At the Bank of England, as usual OD a Saturday, the
applications were few.

The instalment of 20 per cent. which falls due
to-day on the first series of the Turkish loan will
require 600,0001., less such portion as may have
been paid in advance. Fifty per cent. will then
remain to be paid on this series.

The 63,4874 in gold by the Avon from the Brazils
has been taken for the Continent.

The monthly return of the Bank of France will
be published next Friday.
The imports of the precious metals last week
were to a fair extent. Our list includes-270,4001.,
in gold and silver, by the Atrato, from the West
Indies and Mexico; 10,9001. by the Canada, from
Boston; 63,4871. by the Avon, from the Brazils;
2,0831. by the Valetta, from the Peninsula ; about
7,0001. by the Armenian, from the West Coast of
Africa; 11,0001., in silver, by the Lorenzo, from
New Orleans ; and 84,0004 in gold coin from Russia.
These arrivals represent a total value of about
430,0001. In addition, large quantities of silver
have been drawn from the Continent.

The exports have largely increased. The Custom-
house weekly. statement of the exports of the
precious metals direct from London includes
6,400 ozs. of gold, and 4,200 ozs. of silver, represent-
ing a total value of about 21,00 W. The particulars
are as follows, viz. :—Gold coin : to Boulogne,
360 ozs.; to Belgium, 40 ozs. Gold bars :to Bel-
gium, 6,000 ozs. Silver coin :to Belgium, 600 ozs.;
to Boulogne, 3,600 ozs.
The other exports have comprised nearly the
whole of the imports above recorded, besides
237,2161., nearly all silver, by the Indus, for Cal-
cutta and China, 300,000 sovereigns for Constanti-
nople, and a large amount of bar gold drawn from the
Bank, as shown by the Bank return just published.
For years the representations made to govern-
ment in favour of the establishment of an official re-
cord of the imports and exports of the precious
metals were disregarded. At last the authorities
condescended to discover that the want might be
supplied without any frightful amount of expense,
or—what is evidently much more seriously thought
of in government oflices—labour. It was accord-
ingly arranged that the official statistics of the influx
and effiux of specie and bullion should be published
weekly and monthly in the Gazette. The value of '
this record may be estimated from the fact that,
whilst the Bank return for the week ending Wed-
nesday last shows a decrease of more than half a
million in the coin and bullion, and whilst the exist-
ence of an active foreign drain of gold is patent
to everybody, the Gazette returns for the
same week put the total imports of gold at 120,5961.,
and the total exports at 122,2841. We would sug-
grtone of two courses—either that the compilation

of these returns should be entrusted to men who
have mastered the first lessons in arithmetic, or that
the publication of the statistics should be discon-
tinued, and the money saved to the public ; for it is
assuredly better to have no returns at all r►ther than
grossly incorrect and misleading ones.
Mr. J. Lewis Farley, late accountant at the Bay-
rout branch of the Ottoman Bank, has issued •
" Letter " to the shareholders, in which he com-
plains of having been ill-treated by the directors.
Mr. Brounger, the chief engineer, and six mem-
bers of the engineering staff of the Cape Town Rail-
way and Dock Company, sailed for the Cape on the
6th inst. in the mail steamer Athens.

A special general meeting of the West London
Railway Company is called for the 17th inst., to
"authorise the directors to apply, or to ooncur in
applications to parliament for an act or acts for ex-
tending the West London Railway from its present
terminus, at the Kensington Canal Basin, to and
across the Thames, to join the London and South
Western Railway, and other railways on the
southern side of the river, and for selling or leasing
the Kensington Canal and other property of the
West London Railway Company."
The first general meeting of the "New Eastern
Archipelago Company (Limited)" is called for the
16th mt., to confirm the acts of the promoters, to
earry out the contract for the purchase of the pro-
perty of the late Eastern Archipelago Company
(Limited), to appoint directors and auditors, and to
determine on future operations.
A call of 11.. making 7L paid, is to be paid on the
shares of the Copiapo Extension Railway Company
by the 29th inst.
The settlement of the list of contributories of the
Wylam's Steam Fuel Company is to be proceeded
with by the Master of the Rolla on the 20th inst.
. .

A coupon of 20f., or about 16s. per share, was on
Saturday detached from the price of Eastern of
France and Paris and Lyons Railway shares. This
payment, which is denominated interest, is on ac-
count of the diridend for the current year.
With reference to the silk market, the monthly
circular of Messrs. Durant and Co., dated this day,
reports as follows :
We have a changed market in silk. 4111 west fairly well
up to the receipt of telegraphic announcennenta from Chtha oa
the 261 h ultimo--the unloading at the early part of the month
having been taken at a still further slight improvement in
prior, although the rapid advance had evidently produced
retarding effect upon the minds and movements of buyers,
both home and foreign. From that moment our market
flagged, and a few forced sales brought matters to a stand.
Prices of new Teatime silk are now ls.t3d. to 2e.per lb.under the
extreme point. Tapia= remains unchanged, and in old silk
little is done. So much for want of confilence; for although
the deliveries show a considerable diminution, there is so
reason to feel that either here or on the continent coanuthc-
tams are limiting their production. Within the last day or
two we have had some business with an apparently Letter
holing. Bengal silk has felt the adverse movement only to a
very limited event. In Italian silk, nothing of moment—
importers very firm. In Benda and Persian silk, nothing.
The position of the freight market is thus noticed
in the fortnightly circular of Messrs. Sharer, Lamb,
and Co.:
Suitable tonnage for the berth continued in request here,
and the loading brokers ere offering better figures for the
lump sum. Outward waist coast freights are also moving up,
and some little inquiry has arisen for small ships for the

double voyage. The coal freights to the Nut have been
rather active the lut few dam and though the pressing de-
mand for Australia has for the moment been satisfied, the
rates to India continue firm. No general advance is eats-
Whited in Mediterranean coal rates. It would seem Inevit-
able whilst the main hindrance to activity still arises from
the almost total absence of return freight., that our exporters
roust needs pay higher figura, particularly as some ship-
owners continue the policy of laying up their vessels. The
Movement in favour of the enforcement of equality in ship-
ping regulations is rapidly spreading throughout the various
porta of the kingdom.

SATVILDAY EVINIIIO.

The funds to-day were inactive, and closed at a
reduction of 1-16 to per cent., owing partly to the
unfavourable Bank return. A depressing influence
is also exercised by the preparations for next Wed-
nesday's settlement, which thus far indicate a some-
what increased supply of floating stock. The rate
of "continuation" on Consols to the 7th December
was quoted to-day 3-16 to per cent. Immediately
after the December settlement, however, Consols
will be quoted ex the dividend, and this considera-
tion gives a powerful support to the market. The
rise which took place in the French ,funds to-day
was not known here until some hours after the close
of the Stock Exchange.

In the other departments of the Stock Exchange
much steadiness continues to ',prevail, despite the
stagnation of business.

Consols, which closed yesterday at 971 to 98
for Wednesday next, varied to-day between 97}
to 1 end 971 to 98, and closed at exactly
971. After the close of tke Stock Exchange
more flatness prevailed, the quotations being 971,
" sellers," for money and the 10th inst., and 98 to 1.
for the 7th of December. The official business re-
port is as follows:—Three per Cent. Console, for
money, 973, 971, 98; ditto for account (10th of
November), 98, 971, ; Three per Cent. Reduced, 981,
; New Three per Cents., 961, 3 ; Thirty Years
Annuities, expiring in April, 1885, 181, 18 5.16;
Bank Stock, 2261, 227, 2251; India Stock, 227 ;
the Indian Four per Cent. Debentures of the first
issue, 991; ditto of the second issue, 991, 993 ;
India Bonds, 14s. prem.
The debentures of the first Indian loan remain
quoted 993 to 100, and the scrip of the second issue
991 to 1.
The March Exchequer Bills were quoted to-day
345. to 38s. prem., and the June, 295. to 325. prem.
The new Turkish Loan exhibited this morning an
increased tendency towards recovery. The first
transactions recorded were at / prem. for the first
series, and 12 to 13 prem. fur the second. In the
afternoon, however, a few sellers came forward, and
the latest quotations were, respectively, 3 to 3 die.,
and I/ to It prem. The Six per Cents. of 1854 were
likewise in request in the morning, and were marked
931; the closing quotation was 921 to 93, being
per cent. above that of yesterday. Russian Four-
and-a-Hslf per Cents. continue in demand. Mexican
Bonds also met with a few inquiries, and were
steady, at 202 to 3.
Bank, land, dock, steam, and miscellaneous share.
were inactive to-day at former quotations. Peel
River Land shares continue in demand, with an
upward tendency. London Dock stock was offi-
cially marked 108 and 1062 ; and St. Katharine
Dock, 93.
Canada Government Six per Cent. Bonds were
again in demand to-day, and have risen to 118/ to
1173.
The shares of the Indian and Australian Tele-
graph Company were quoted to-day 1-16 to 3-18
prem.
