MONEY ILIEEET.-(TIIII8 DAY)

Airs o'Culex.
The transactions in the Stock Exchange are
upon a limited scale, as usual at this period of the
year, yet the tone of the various departments
is firm. There is an absence of unfavourable

political intelligence from abroad, while it is fully
anticipated that the Back rate of &mount will be
further reduced within the next fortnight. This

expectation is chiefly Wood upon the fact tbat
the applications from the clisconnt houses and
brokers to the Bank for advances have been ex-

tremely moderate this quarter, so that the bulk of
the dividend money, amounting to several millions
sterling, will find its way to the general discount
market for employment. Consols are unchanged
for money, but have improved 1-16 per cent. for
the account. Some of the English railways are also
better, and foreign stocks are steady.
The discount market is quiet to-day, and trans-
acti

ions argil reported at 44 per cent., or below
the rate charged at the Bank.
Consols are now quoted 894 to for money, and
894, or 89 7-18 to 9-16, for the 9th inst.
Foreign stocks are quiet, at the dosing prices of
yesterday. The amount of business is very small.
Turkish Bonds of 1862 are quoted 544 to 564 ;
ditto, 1885, 31 to ; Greek, 141 to 164 ; Spanish
Passive, 224 to 234 ; ditto Certificates, 144 to 164 ;
Italian of 1861, 564 to ; and Mexican, 164 to 4.
United States 6-20 Bonds are unchanged, at 70
to ; but Erie and Illinois Central Railway shares
have further advanced to 1 per cent., viz., to 52
to 7 and 784 to 79 respectively.
Anglo-American Telegraph shares are quoted
164 to 17, being 2s. 6d. higher ; and Atlantic
Telegraph 54 to 4, showing no movement.
International Financial shares are quoted 14 to
14 die. ; London Financial, 144 to 134 dia.; General
Credit, 2to 14 die. ; Credit Fonder, 31 to ft
die. ; and National Discount, 84 to 9 prem.
HALF-PAST THREE O'CLOCK.
Consols are again fractionally better, at 894 for
money, and 894 to for the account.
About 74,0001. in gold has been bought by the
Bank. _ _

---
At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Benter
opened at 60fr. 20c., being 1-16 per cent. lower.
A reduction in the Bank rate to 4 per cent. is
thought very probable in the course of the next
week or two. This belief is strengthened by the
continued influx of gold, the Bank having purchased
435,0001. since the date of the last return. At the
end of each quarter, however, some amount of
coin is always drawn from the Bank for the pro-
vinces, and a further sum will be absorbed in the
payment of the dividends, which will commence on
Saturday week, the 13th.
A meeting of the holders of Alabama State
Bonds was convened for yesterday, to consider what
measures should be adopted with reference to the
increase of interest, but the meeting was postponed
for the present, advice& having been received to
the effect that proposals are about to be made
by the State Legislature on the subject.
The amount of gold sent into the Bank yesterday
was 73,0001., viz., 67,0001. in bars, and 6,000
sovereigns.
The fine bar silver and the Mexican dollars by the
steamer Seine were sold yesterday for the Continent
-the former at ss. Id. per ounce,. and the latter
at 4s. 11id., showing no change in either case,
compared with the quotations recently current.
It is a satisfactory feature that, notwithstanding
the extent of the recent fall in the value of money,
the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon were
steady. The rate for bills on Belgium was slightly
more favourable for this country. The list is sub-
joined :
Amsterdam, 3 months, ILl9' to 11.191 ; ditto, short,

A feature of some importance arose yesterday in
connexion with the affairs of Overend, Gurney, and
Co. An application was yesterday made to Vice-
Chancellor Stuart, at his chambers, by Mr. Cle-
ment Swanston, instructed by Messrs. Lewis and
Lewis, acting on behalf of the Defence Association,
to suspend the drawing up of the order to enforce
the payment of the 107. call until after the vaca-
tion. The Vice-Chancellor, after the arguments of
counsel, granted the application, and suspended
the order until the third day of November next,
when the liability of the alleged contributories will
be argued and decided. It is evident, therefore,
from the present delay, and the certainty of ulte-
rior proceedings, that this important case will con-
tinue to engage public attention for a considerable
time to come. It is rumoured that the Defence
Association is making arrangements to commence
an action against the directors to recover the money
which its members have already lost.
Reviewing the position which this contest has
now assumed, it appears that the subscriptions for-
warded to the Defence Association have reached
3,0001., representing about 20,000 shares, and
emanating from five hundred shareholders. On
the other hand, the sum hitherto received by the
liquidators on account of the call of
101. a share made by them is believed
to be upwards of 200,0001., representing there-
fore upwards of 20,000 sares. From this it
would seem that the number of shares in
of which the 101. call has been ac-
-7114 paid, and the number the holders of
which absolutely deny their liability on the
plea of alleged frauds and misrepresentations
in the original prospectus, are nearly equal. As
an indication, however, of the feeling entertained
by the majority of the shareholders, the figures
put forward by the Defence Association are the
more reliable, because a considerable portion of the
funds paid to the liquidators on account of the
call are derived front shareholders who are at the
same time creditors, mostly as depositors, and who
have paid the call the more readily because they
are well aware that their doing so is a necessary

holders will receive any dividend until

them to meet the liabilities of the company
has yet to be decided, as an appeal is being carriedto
to the House of Lords. By way of complement
the figures above given, it may be mentioned that
the total number of shareholders in this unfortu-
nate company is 2,368, and the total subscribed
capital 5,000,0001., in 100,000 shares of 501. each.

The second ordinary general meeting of the
Guildhall Tavern's Company (Limited) was held
yesterday. The chairman (Mr. Cox) congratulated
the meeting on the result of the year's trading. He
stated that the business had week by week increased,
and he had no doubt that very shortly the ofit
would be sufficient to enable the directors ode-
dare a dividend at the rate of 10 per cent. per
annum. The report was adopted.
