MONEY MARKET.-7 HIS DA Y.

Two o'Ctocn.
The funds have again shown a tendency to
improvement. After attaining a fresh rise of nearly
per cent, Consols are now quoted ito
per cent. higher than they closed 3 es-
tertlay. Great quietude prevails pending news
of a definite character from the seat of war, but

the appearance of the various markets is more
satisfactory then at any period since the
late panic. Foreign stocks and French and
Lombardo-Veneitian railway shares are rising. A
favorable effect is produced by the continued rise on
the Paris Bourse, where the brilliant success of the
new loan has checked the growth of distrust.
At the official opening of the Paris Bourse this
day, according to Mr. Renter's telegram, the Three
per Cent. Rentes were quoted 61.70 for the account,
@bowing a fresh rise of about per cent. compared

with the last price of yesterday.
Consols have been dealt in from 911 to 921 for
_ _ _

money, and 91t to 921 for the 7th of Done.
The present quotations are 91t to 921
for cub, and 91; to 92 for the amount.
Bank Stock has been dealt in at 217 to 220 ;

the Three per Cents. Reduced at 901 to 911 ;
the New Three per Cents., at 90/ to 911 ; the
Indian Four per Cent. Debentures of last year, at 94 ;
the scrip of the New Indian Loan, at 93 to 93k, being
again better; India Bonds, at 12a. to 16s. dia. ; and

Exchequer Bills, at 245. to 275. prem.
The foreign stock market retains the firmer ap-
pearance lately noticed, and where any alteration is
observable in prices, it is in an upward
direction. Brazilian, Mexican, Spanish, Por-
tuguese, and Dutch stooks are in demand, and bet-
ter. Turkish securities have advanced about
1 per cent., the Old Six per Cents. being
quoted 64 to 66, and the New, 64 to 66.
Sales are recorded as follows : Brazilian
Old Five per Cents., 99; ditto for acoonnt, 98; ditto
Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1868,891, 88, 89 ; Dutch
Two-end-a-Half per Cents., 69/ (exchange, 128.) ;
ditto Four par Cent, Certificates, 92 ; Mexican
Three per Cents., for account, 161,17 ; New Grenada
Deferred Bonds, 41 ; Peruvian Uribarren Four-and-
a-Half per Cents., 78; Portugafte Three per Cents.,
1863, for account, 40; Sardinian Five per Cents., 76 ;
ditto, for account, 76; Spanish Three per Cents.,
391 ; ditto New Deferred Three per Cents., for ac-
count, 271, 271 ; Turkish Six per Cents., 1864, 68,
64; ditto for account, 66, 641, 66; ditto Six per
Cents., 1868, for account, 63, 66; ditto Guaranteed
Pone per Cents., 991; ditto for account, 99.
The Conflict, from Melbourne, has arrived, with
43,5001. in gold.
In the discount market the demand yesterday wee
_ _

moderate. High rata are still demanded for long-
dated paper. Two or three weeks hence, however,
the Bank will begin to make the usual quarterly
advances on bills having as long as six months to
ran. The demand at that establishment yesterday
was steady, but not pleasing.
According to the admen from Paris the subscrip-
tions to the French Loan of 20,000,0001. have already
exceeded 40,000,0001., including a very large number
for only 10E (say Bs.) of annual income. The sub-
scription offices are daily besieged by a long queue
of small investors anxious to pour their savings into
the lap of the state. Everybody in any way con-
nected with the government is expected to take part
in this new national demonstration. Each subscriber
who bona fide wishes to take, say, I,ooof. of Reate,
is thus impelled to apply for 4,000 f. or 8,000 f., by
way of providing against the redaction which is
sure to be made in the allotment. The sixty agent
de change, or licensed stockbrokers, of Parts, have
applied for an aggregate capital of tome 1,360,0001.
The residue of the gold by the Great Britain and
Mermaid, from Melbourne. and by the Europa, from
New York, was taken yesterday for transmission
abroad. No bullion operations took place at the
Bank.
The Maidstone, which has now been at sea over
100 days from Melbourne, with 75,000/. in gold,
was spokes with on the 3rd inst.
From St. Petersburg the exchange comes a shade
firmer, the quotation being 331.
In Mark-lane yesterday, English wheat met with a
slow sale, at the reduction of Bs. to Ba. per quarter
quoted on Monday.
The sugar market retains a drooping tendency.
An extraordinary degree of activity. continues to
prevail in the leather market, and prices are still

i'isAingpai. oral impression has been produced in the
Stock Exchange by the announcement that sixteen
more individuals—all dealers in Consols—have
owed to be members of the establishment. This
was the precise form of the notification, their formal
declaration as defaulters being, under the circum-
stances, dispensed with. The names comprise those
of the parties who were compelled, at the monthly
settlement ii Consols last week, to effect comp°.
arises with their creditors, and who were allowed
until yesterday to settle all claims. Much sympathy
and regret are naturally expressed, some of these
members being of old standing and highly
respected. Most of them have already paid
large dividends. In one instance, in which, it
is said, the balance remaining unpaid is only 2e. 6d.
in the pound, the creditors voluntarily signed a com-
plete telease ; yet this gentleman's name was pro-
claimed amongst the others, the Committee being
apparently of opinion that, however painful their
duty, they have no choice but to mete out one mea-
sure to all unable to complete their engagements.
We may. rem irk that the rule with regard to
re-admission is that, after a defaulter shall
have banded over the whole of his trade assets
within the Stock Exchange, he mast pay, from his
other or private resources, at least one-third of the
balance left outstanding before he will be eligible.
A meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Lloyd,
Beilby, and Co., Australian merchants, who recently
failed, is called for Monday next.
lathe Bankruptcy Court yesterday there was a sit-
ting for proof of debts and choice of assignees in
the case of Messrs. White and Gregory, East India
Army Agents, of the Haymarket. The debts appear
to amount to about 25,0001., with liabilities to the
farther extent of 20,0001., a portion of which only
will rank against the estate. The assets are esti-
mated at between 18,0001. and 20,0001.
A petition to parliament, from " bankers, mer-
chants, and other?: is lying for signature at the
Jerusalem Coffee-house, urging the absolute neces-
sity of the establishment of telegraphic communica-
tion with our Indian and colonial possessions com-
pletely independent of the control of continental
state.. All the lines of telegraph hitherto sanctioned
by the British government involve • continental
medium. Just stress is laid upon the disadvantages
of this policy, and upon the evil of the interruption
to be expected at a ume of war; and the petitioners
strongly urge the establishment of "direct lines of
submarine telegraph."
The London and North Western Railway traffic
return shows this week an increase of 3,0231.;
the Great Northern, an increase of 2331.; the Great
Western, an increase of 3;4611.; and the London and
South Western, an increase of 3,4001.

tures lulled last year were firm, at 93 to 94.
The transactions in the foreign stock market were
more numerous. The principal demand was for
Sardinian Bonds, which rose considerably, being
last marked 78. Many other foreign stocks, in-
cluding Brazilian, Spanish, Austrian, and Dutch,
were also better. The Dutch Four per Cents.,
which yesterday were marked 871, were dealt in
to-day as high as 91. Turkish stocks were steady,
but not better in price than yesterday, the Old Six per
Cents. leaving off at 63 to 85, and the New at 63 to 55.
A special general meeting of the Portsmouth
