MONEY MARKET.-(TliTh DAY•)

ONS
Business in the Stock Exchange continues very
limited, and owing to this circumstance, combined
with the absence of the public as investors, together
with the high value of money, the prices
of public securities in some cases present
a further slight reduction. Consols have declined
per cent., and two or three of the chief specula-
tive foreign stocks and home railways about I. It
will be seen, however, that the decline is far from
general

There is not much business in the discount
market to-day, while the supply of money seeking
employment is large. The general rate for
for choice three months' paper is 71 to
71 per cent. ; but occasional transactions
are reported at a fraction less. The charge for
short loans in the Stock Exchange, on English
government securities, is 3 to 4 per cent.
Console are now quoted 861 to 87 for money,
and 871 to f for the account (February 8).
The dealings in foreign stocks have been mode-
rate, and the tendency of prices is rather unfavour-
able. Mexican bonds exhibit chief flatness, and
have declined g per cent. Greek bonds are
per cent. lower, and Brazilian scrip is dull.
Some of the present quotations are subjoined, viz. :
Greek, in to 141 ; Turkish Five per Cents.
of 1865, 39/ to /, ex div. ; Spanish Passive, 25/
to / ; ditto Certificates, in to 14 ; Confederate, 6
to 7 ; Brazilian scrip, ato prem. ; and Mexican,
211 to 1, ex div.
The scrip of the new Egyptian Railway Deben-
ture Loan is lower, at I to 1 prem.
United States 5.20 bonds are in demand, and
have improved to cot to being / per cent. better
than on Saturday.
International Financial shares are now quoted
/ to / prem. ; General Credit, 1/ to 2 prem. ;
London Financial, 3/ to / prem. ; Imperial Mer-
cantile, 21 to if prem. ; Credit Fourier and Mobilier
of England, 31 to a prem., ex all, being lower ;
Overend, Gutaey, and Company, 51 to 1 prem.
The shares of the English and American Bank
are now quoted 1 to If prem. ; Loudon Steam
Towing, 11 to 2 prem. ; Charles Laffitte and Co.,
21 to f prem.; and Galatz Candle, to 4 prem.
The drawing to determine which of the 15 series
of the bonds of the Italian State Domain Loan in

No bullion was withdrawn from the Bank on
Saturday, but the arrivals from Australia an]
America continue to be taken for the Continent.

The Messageries Impi:riales steamer Said left
Marseilles on Friday with 40,0001. in specie for
Alexandria, and 100,0001. for India.
Private advices from an excellent source, dated
Paris, Thursday evening, state as follows :
" Nearly all kinds of stocks have experienced to-
day an unexpected rise. It was generally suppo-eil
the Bank rate of discount would have been raised
at the weekly board. This apprehension, which
the situation published did not at all warrant, hav-
ing proved groundless, a better tone was imparted
to all transactions. As to the Credit Mobilier
shares, the;^ rise is to be ascribed to a particular
cause ; it is rumoured that the company are going
to increase their capital by the issue at par of the
same number of new shares as the present, and, if
our information is correct, the preliminary steps
required for preparing the proposed measure have
been submitted to the competent authorities, and
have met with their approval. That the public at
large participate in the same view is evidenced by
the quotations of our Bourse. It is supposed the
Credit Mobilier Company will be thereby enabled
to enter upon a new geld of action, and to under-
take shortly some important operation, such as the
opening of the Rue de l'lmperatrice, of which so
much has been said of late. Moreover, on general
grounds, it is assumed that the supply of fresh
capital will have a beneficial effect upon our stock
and share market, and ease the settlement of cur-
rent operations."
Messrs. Stevenson, Salt, and Co., the private
bankers, announce in a circular that they have amal-
gamated their country business, conducted at Staf-
ford, Lichfield, Rugely, and Eccleshall, with Lloyd's
Banking Company (Limited). Messrs. T. and T. Salt
will be large shareholders in the amalgamated bank,
and Mr. Thomas Salt, jun., will continue the active
superintendence of the business at the above-named
places ; and it is also agreed that he shall take a
seat at the board of direction of Lloyd's Banking
Company. The business of Meisrs. Stevenson,
Salt, and Co. bas been conducted in Staffordshire
for more than a century and a quarter, and during
that time the partners state that they have met
with unvarying kindness and liberal support from
their clients of all classes, but thediminution in the
members of the family by deaths, and the changes
which have taken place in the system of banking
during the last few years, have induced the present
step. This arrangement, however, in no way affects
the position of the banking firm of Messrs. Steven-
son, Salt, and Sons, in Lombard-street, London,
who will conduct their business as private bankers
as hitherto. The partners in the London house are
Mr. Thomas Salt, Mr. Thomas Salt, jun., Mr. John
Charles Salt, and Mr. William Winter Scott. It
is presumed that in consequence of this amalgama-
tion the country note issue of Messrs. Stevenson,
Salt, and Co., the amount of which is fixed by law
at 14,166 k, will lapse.
Annexed is an official abstract of the ferthcoming
report of the directors of the Bank of Egypt for the
half year ending the 30th ult., to be presented at
the general meeting of shareholders on Friday, the
2nd February.
