MONEY MARKET.-ZHIS D4l.

Two o'CLocz.

The funds to-day are very firm. Consols We
quoted about 1-16 per omit. dearer than yesterday
afternoon. A favourable impression has been pro-
duced by the article in the Comatitutionnel, whit&
is held to foreshadow the imperial speech, but the
speech itself is awaited with much interest. In
the share markets general firmness prevails.
At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's
telegram, the Three per Cent. Rents. were quoted
68.10, being the same as yesterday.
The Indian Five per Cent. Stock of 1839 is fins,
at 1041 to I.

for money, and 941, 95, and 941 for the account.

money and 95, "sellers,' for the Bth of March.
Bank Stock has been dealt in at 2301 and 2291;
the Three per Cents. Reduced, at 96 and
961; the New Three per Cents., at 951,
95, and 951; the Five per Cents., at
1091; India Stock, at 221 and 219; the Indian

Debentures of 1859, at 971; and Exchequer Bills,

The foreign stock market is quiet. The Turkish
Loan of 1854 is steady, whilst that of 1868, which
is now quoted ex the dividend due this day, is fiat.
The Anglo-Peruvian Four-and• Half per Cent'. are
very firm, and are marked 931 ex div. Mexican Bonds
are more offered, and weaker, whilst Spanish are rather
firmer. Sales are recorded as follows :—Brazi-
lian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1852, 94;
ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1868, 931,
94, 931; Mexican Three per Cents., 21/ ; ditto,

Bank yesterday, part for India, and the rest for the
Continent. The Roxburgh Castle has arrived from
Melbourne with 89,0001. in gold, which will be
sent abroad.

The remittances of silver by the Calcutta and China
steamer of the 4th will probably be under 150,0001.,
owing chiefly to the decline in the exchange at
Shanghae.
It ts worthy of notice that the "A" and " B"
stocks of the Great Northern Railway, taken to-
gether, are now worth about B.per cent. more than
the ordinary stock, by the division of which they
were formed.
The sum of 13,3191. has just been paid into the
Indian treasury to the credit of the Madre.; Irri-
gation Company in advance of calls, making., with
