WIWI/DAY Zvannte.
The fonds tc-day, though remarkably firm, were
quiet. A fresh rise of I per Gent. was attained in the
morning, bat, owing chiefly to the inactivity of Wei-
nese, was not maintained to the close, the market
finally leaving off the same el yesterday. Specula-
tire attention was to-day diverterfrom this depart-
ment to the markets for British railway shares and
Turkish bonds, in which an important advance took
place. In most quarters there is a marquise expecta-
tion of a steady improvement in the Money Market.
and speculative operations are stimulated by the
belief that prices of most descriptions of securities
will gradually advance towards the range of quota-
time which prevailed prior to the breaking out of the
'late war.

In Lombard-street to-day &resupply of money wu
superabundant, and the demand quiet.
At Paris today the Three per Cent. Rents closed
at 71.10 for money, and 71.20 for amount. After
yesterday's decline of 3 per cent., the money price
shows a recovery of 400., or about f, per cent., but
the rally in the price to account is only 10c., or
scarcely per cent. A preponderance of money pun
chase. is iadloated. The difficulty with which recent
settlements in the Rennie and railway shares have
t ea effected seems to have greatly discouraged maul
of the speculators, numbers of whom hasten to realise
upon any rally. The market is also seriously pro-
judiced by the weakness of many of these operators,
which has led to numerous " executions," or forcible
closing of their accounts, in default of their ability to
meet their differences. devertheices,despitstkesemors
monetary pressure ocessioned by the constant calls for
new projects, an impression prevails in many quarters
that the avidity now shown by all clause for Bourse
speculation will lead to a general recovery from the
late severe fall, so soon as the market shall have been
relieved from the immediate oppression caused by the
embarrassments of toe weaker class of speculative
buyers. The belief remains that a disastrous financial
crisis will eventually supervene in Francis, but pro-
bably this period of trial is not yet arrived. That
necessary element of a monetary crisis—general dis-
trust and unwilliogness to lend—is, happily, as yet
abound.

Consols, after advancing to 941 to /, left off at
yesterday's final quotation 0(941 to 1 ex div. for the
10th of July. The official business report is as fol.
lows :—Three per Cent. C 0...!., for account, 10th
July, 941, 1, I, lex die. Three per Cent.. Reduced,
941, 1, f, 1. New Three per Cents., 941, 961, 951,

Exchequer Bills have again risen le., closing at Bs.
to Ils. prem. Exchequer Bonds were quoted 991 to
1, 'bowleg a further advance of / per cent.
In the foreign stock market the prominent feature
was a spirited demand for Turkish bonds, especially
the Six per Cents., which rose so leas than 11 per
cent., closing at 1011 to 1. The Guaranteed Four
per Cents. touched 106, and left off at 1041 to 1, being
per cent. better than yesterday. Other stocks were
quiet, but arm. Spanish and Sardinian Bond., besides
others, met with more inquiry.
Extreme buoyancy prevailed today in the railway
share market, which retains a strong upward ten-
dency. Attention may be particularly called to Lon-
don and South Western stock, which to-day rose 2
per cent., and has reached 31 per cent. prem. This
stock, which ordinarily meets with little attention oa
the fart of epealatens, has experienced a steady
advance of no lees than 4 per sent. within three days.
In the wen market today the late advance was
malistaieed. The supply of heeno-grown grain and
the foreign Imports are very limited. The country
markets bad yesterday were firm, and in some cases
higher.
It appears that the subscriptions in Paris for the
sew capital of the Coins des Chemin de For (Railway
Bask) have been largely in exams of the amount
required. Subscribers are to native only we share
ha every two shares applied for. This feet Is weft.
