MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.)

011 O'CLUQL

The market:. for public securities, although still
extremely sensitive, re-opened this morning with a
somewhat better tendency, owing chiefly to the
partial recovery yesterday in the French funds.
Very little business, however, has since been
transacted, the dealers being indisposed to
enter into fresh operations of importance
pending the receipt of further prices from
Paris. The variations during the rest of the
day will almost entirely depend upon these quota-
tions, which are properly regarded as forming
the best index as to the prospect of peace or war on
the Continent. Consols and most of the British
railway and foreign stocks are unaltered. Spanish
Passive and Turkish of 1.80 meet with some in-
quiry. Many of the members of the Stock Ex-
change are still absent, but the attendance is much
larger than on Saturday.

The demand for money to-day has somewhat
increased, but the supply is still large, and good
bills are taken at kto J per cent below the Bank
rate. The charge in the Stock Exchange for short
loans on English government securities is to 2
per cent.

Consols are now quoted 94 to g for money and
90$ to j for the account (May 9).
Turkish of 1865 and Spanish Passive aro in
I demand, and have improved to $ per cent. The
Committee's Certificates are better ; but Italian
of 1861 have declined h. Turkish of 1866 are
quoted 26i to $ ; Greek, 12 to 13 ; Spanish Passive,
119$ to I ; ditto Certificates, 14 to $ ; Italian of
1861, 44J to 45 ; Mexican, 15 to j ; Russian
Scrip, 33 to 3$ die., ex div. ; Chilian Scrip, 6
to 5 dia. ; and Danubian Scrip, 7 to 6 dis.
United States 5-20 Bonds are $ per cent. lower,
at 691 to hut Erie and Illinois Central railway
shares are unchanged, at 36 to $ and 74 to $
respectively.

Atlantic Cable shares are quiet. Anglo-Ameri-
can are quoted 171 to 18 ; and Atlantic Telegraph
Eight per Cent. Preference, to }.
international Financial shares are quoted
n to die. ; London Financial, 231 to 221
dim. ; General Credit, 3; to 21 dim. ; Credit Fonder,
61 top die. ; National Discount, 7 to 1 prem. ;
and Hudson's Bay, 151 to 16.

It is notified that " the excess dividend on Zest-
land Railway shares for the year 1866 of per
cent., or 3.. per share over and above the interest
of 4 per cent. guaranteed by the Danish govern-
ment, will be paid by Messrs. C. J. Hambro and
Son on the 25th inst."

A petition for the winding up of the Anglo-
Danubian Steam Navigation and Colliery Company
(Limited) is to be heard before the Master of the
Rolls on the 4th of May.

A meeting of the creditors of the General
Exchange Bank will be held on the let of May, to
confirm the resolutions previously passed in favour
of windin up the undertaking voluntarily, instead
of under the compulsory winding-up order already
made.

HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.

The stock markets are lower, the prices from Ber-
lin showin4 a reduction. It is also rumoured that
Count Bia:rtarck has resigned. Consols are quoted
9O for the account, being slightly worse. Italian
bunds of 146 l are at 4;,4 to 44—a fall of per cent.
since 1 o'clock.

Two O'CLOCK.

At Paris this morning the Three per Cent. Rentes
opened at 651 r. 75c., being 8 per cent. higher than
yesterday. The Boursa is described as " inani-
mate— unc,,rtain . "

Hithert. the hope of peace has rested chiefly upon
the deterrent influence attributed to the counsels of
England, Russia, and Austria ; but the belief in
its efficacy is now rapidly on the wane. Meanwhib
the existing suspense is so prejudicial to business
at home P d abroad, that the community will be
apt to regard as an absolute gain any solution, how-
ever unfavourable.

The Hansa, from New York, has brought 5,4001.
in spade.
The following letter has been received from the
Foreign-office by the solicitors of the Genera!
Credit and Discount Company, in reply to the com-
munication recently addressed to Lord Stanley, de-
tailingthe conduct of the Venezuelan government in
again appropriating to themselves the export duties
solemnly hypothecated to the bondholders of the
1864 loan :

Foreign•office, April 18.
Gentlemen,—l am directed by Lord Stanley to adman-
ledge the receipt of your letter of the 17th inst., reporting
that the Venezuelan government have entirely suspended
payments due to the holders of the Venezuelan loin of
Ifltl4, and requesting the active interference of her
Majesty's gavemment on their behalf ; and I am to stet*
to you, in reply, that the question shall receive the most
careful consideration of her Majesty's government.—l am,
gentlemen, your most obedient humble servant.

A special meeting of the London, Brighton, and
South Cost Railway Company is called for the
9th of May, "to nominate, if thought expedient
by the meeting, two duly qualified proprietors for
election, to supply the vacancies occasioned by the
retirement of Leo Schuster, Esq., and Peter
Northall Laurie, Esq., and to consider and adopt
such messlres as by the meeting may be thought
desirable."

The Western Railways Shareholders' Association
are obtaining numerous signatures from share and
debenture holders of the Bristol and Exeter Rail-
way Company, to a memorial to the director', ex-
pressing an opinion that " measures should be
taken to relieve the company from the obligation
entered into in the last session of parliament to
make the Exe Valley Railway, and that the com-
pany should not enter into further obligations with
the Devon and Somerset Railway Company, as
proposed in a bill now before parliament." It is
stated that the extensions referred to are estimated
to involve a cost to the company of at leant
800,000/.
The Aepio-Brazilian Tinter of March 23 say%
with regard to the San Paulo Railway :—" From
San Paulo the reports as to the railway continue
encouraging, the daily receipts having some days
reached 5001. per day." The above is equal to 351.
per mile per week.
The adjourned meeting of the East India Land
Credit and Finance Company (Limited) will be
held on the lit of May, ' to receive the report of
the directors, and for other purposes."
The prospectus of the English Rubber Company
(Limited) is issued, with a proposed capital of
50,0001., in 5,000 shares of 101. each, of which it is
intended to issue one-half at first. The company
proposes to manufacture and sell all kinds of india-
rubber goods, and with this view it is to take over
and extend the business of the Southwark India-
rubber Company, in Grange-road, Bermondsey.
Two of the late directors are to come on the new
board. The purchase-money for the freehold of
the factory and adjoining property, together
with the engine and machinery, is to be 9,6001.
The numbers are published of twenty bonds, re-
presenting 4,2001., of the Swedish Provincial

18th inst.,and are to be paid off at par on June 1.
