MONEY MARKET.-THIS DAY.

Two etkorix.
Renewed heaviness prevails to-day in the Stock
Exchange. The funds opened at a fall of / per cent.
compared with the pricesattained after the closes, the
Stock Exchange yesterday afternoon, in owns-
queue° of the remarks made by Lord Derby at
the Mansion-house last night. A sudden rally
of fully per cent. followed, but a
relapse has since taken place, and Consols are
DOW quoted only per cent. better than they
opened. Lombardo•Venetian Railway shares
exhibit a farther important fall, in consequence of
the failure at Paris of a large speculator for the rise
in these securities. As regards some other railway
stocks the market is somewhat steadier In character.
Consols opened this morning at 92t to / for the
6th of May, rallied suddenly to 931, "buyers," and
have since relapsed to 921 to 93. In money
the price is the name as for the account-
Bank Stock has been dealt in at 223 ; the Three
per Cents. Reduced, at 911 to 2/; the New Throe
per Cents., at 92 to 921; India Stock at 220 W
221 ; the Indian Four per Cent. Debentures of lest
at 95; and Exchequer Bill, at 32a. to 362.

mem.
The foreign stook market remains heavy in
character. Turkish stocks peasant a fresh fall of 1
- cent., the Old Six per Cents. being now quoted
to 78, and the last loan 61 to 68. Even at this
reduction, sale* of any importance could
be effected. As regards most other classes
foreign securities, the tendency of prices is still
downwards, in the absence of buyers. Sales
recorded as follows:—Brazilian Old Five
Cents., 99 ex dlr.; ditto Four.and-a-Relf
Cents., 1868, 92 ; Chilian Six per Cents.,

Consols have suddenly risen to 931 to 1, in con-
sequence of a rumour of more favourable intel-
ligence from Vienna.
At Amsterdam, on Saturday, the Austrian funds
fell about 21 per cent.
In the discount market the demand yesterday was
not more active than usual, and bills up to 60 days
are still taken at 21 per cent.; but higher terms are
demanded for paper having a longer period to run,
owig to the growing apprehension that the drain
d will shortly lead to an advance in the Bank
stnimuns. The applications at that establishment
yesterday were very
_moderate.
The amount of gold withdrawn from the Beaky es-
terday for exportation was 100,000 L, slain a total
of 300,0001. since the date of the lest return. The

however, an aggregate of 351,401 i. in specie from
New York, of -ibis* a limited proportion cousin, of
Mexican dollars.

stocks will commence tomorrow (" continuation day')

The has l movement in the Steak
Exchange has already led to the failure of me of the
dealers, an old and respectable member, who, lading
it impossible to effect sales of stocks of the North
Eastern Railway Company, in which he was in-
terested, bas judged it prudent to place his affairs in
the beads of the official liquidator of the establish-
ment: The amount involved is not large, and the
case aorta with much sympathy.
The troubled state of politica has apparently
little affect upon the export trade, which continues
to increase steadily. The aggregate exports last
month were 2,312,9641. more than in March, 1868,
and 858,8801. more than in March, 1867, when so
much speculative activity prevailed. The,
exports
for the first quarter of the present year ham been
30 per cent. more than lest year, and 8 per oust.
more than in 1967.
The Calcutta exchange is apparently rather more
favourable for this country. In China little altera-
tion has occurred.
The Calcutta and China mails will be distributed
in London to-morrow morning.
As we anticipated, the shipments of specie by the
Bombay steamer, the Orissa, of the 27th instant ex-

remittance on government account is 142,0001. The
previous Bombay packet took an aggregate of
91,9231.
The silver market is fiat, at 6115. to 4d. per canes

In no department of the Stock Exchauge was the
panic ram severe than in that devottil to trans-
actions in foreign stocks. In all instances great
difficulty was experienced in effecting pales. Turkish
securities, being held to a considerable extent on
borrowed' money, have sustained an immense depre-
ciation. The Old Six per Cents, closed this after-
noon at 76 to 77, and the lut loan at 66 to 67,
showing the enormous reduction of about tot per
cent. since Thursday. Even at this rause sales o
magnitude could not hare been prooteded with.
