MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.)

Own o'Curiox.
The stock markets are quiet to-day, with little
business. There is a demand, however, for the
funds, which exhibit a fresh rise of per cent.
British railways and foreign securitlies are dull, but
the reduction in prices is neither general nor im-
portant. Very few transactions have occurred in
banking and financial shares, which have scarcely
varied. There is a pause in business at the moment,
and no real revival will probably take place until
the announcement of the outbreak of hostilities on
the Continent.

There is a good demand for discounts to-day,
and the rates for the beet three months paper is
firm, at di per cent. The supply of money, how-
ever, has somewhat increased.
The Bank of France return shows this week an
increase of 430,0001. in the coin and bullion and of
576,0001. in the bills discounted.

The Stock Exchange Committee will meet this
afternoon to re-consider the advisability of alter-
ing the present mode of dealing in Bank shares,
owing to strong representations which have been
made to them on the subject. The proposition
which meets with most attention in different
quarters is that a resolution should be
passed in favour of sales being effected
for cash only, allowing the seller one
week to deliver the certificates. To such an extent
have sales been pressed by speculators of late, that
all kinds of villanous devices are now being prao-
tised with a view to frighten bona fide shareholders
into realising. For instance, the proprietors in one
bank have received the following circular to-day
Bell bank Awes at once.
June, 1866.

Paola a Fame.
Consols are now quoted 86} to /, ex div., for
money, and 86/ to for the account (July 10).
Foreign stocks are inactive, and few changes
have occurred in prices. The variations comprise
a rise of } per cent. in Spanish Passive and Mexi-
can, and a decline to the like extent in Greek
and Italian of 1861. Turkish Bonds of 1862
are now quoted 51 to 53 ; ditto of 1865, 26} to ;
Greek, 10} to 11} ; Spanish Passive, 191 to 20 ;
ditto Certificates, 143 to ; Italian of 1861,
38} to 1 ; Brazilian scrip, 6} to 5} dis. ; and
Mexican, 15} to
American securities are unchanged, with the
exception of a decline of } per cent. in Erie shares,
which are now quoted 40} to j. 5-20 Bonds are
called 641 to 65 ; and Illinois Central shares, 741
to 75.
International Financial shares are now quoted
25 to I.} dis. ; Loudon Financial, 16} to 15} dis. •
General Credit, 21 to 25 dis. ; Credit Foneier, 33
to 3} dis. ; and National Discount, 6} to 1 prem.
HALT-PAST Texas O'CLOCK.
Consols are steady, at 86} to I for money, and
861 to for the account.
About 99,0001. in gold has been sent into the
Bank. There has been a strong demand for money
at that establishment.
At Paris this morning the Three per Cent. Renter
opened at 64.15, being the same as yesterday.
It is said that some of the more needy speculators
are so deeply engaged in the direction of Bank
shares that they will be completely ruined unless
• banking catastrophe can by some means be
brought about.
The firmness of the various markets in face
of an adverse condition of financial and poli-
tical affairs seems to be mainly based upon the
Iltwofold expectation that, as soon as the value of
money begins to fall, the reduction to moderate
rates will be very rapid, and that, should hostilities
on the continent now break out, the public mind
will soon become callous to further warlike alarms.
The bar silver and Mexican dollars by the West
India packet were sold yesterday at ss. 2d. and
ss. gd. per ounce respectively, being the same as the
prices recently current. The former was taken for
Hamburg, for which quarter, however, there is
rather less demand at the moment.
A meeting of the Imperial Mercantile Credit As-
sociation (Limited) took place yesterday, when the
resolutions previously passed in favour of the un-
dertaking being wound up voluntarily, and of
the appointment of Messrs. Alexander Young
and John Ball as liquidators, were confirmed. A
long discussion took place with regard to the
pastmanagement of the concern, during which the
conduct of the directors was severely censured. It
was explained by Mr. Young that in his capacity
as liquidator it will be his duty to investigate and
report upon the conduct of the board.
Vice-Chancellor Wood, in whose court the Bank
of London is being wound up, has sanctioned the
arrangement provisionally come to between the
official liquidator of that bank and the Consolidated
Bank. It now only remains for the shareholders
and creditors of the Consolidated Bank to give
their assents in order to complete the arrangement
for re-opening the Consolidated Bank.
Creditors of the Commercial Bank Corporation
of India and the East are required to send the par-
ticulars of their claims by the 10th of November
to Mr. W. H. Holyland, the official liquidator,
the Master of the Rolls having appointed the 3rd
of December for adjudicating upon them.
The eighth ordinary general meeting of share-
holders of the Imperial Bank (Limited) is called
for the 17th July, when a dividend is to be de-

dared.
The half-yearly meeting of the shareholders of
tho City Bank will likewise be held on the I;th

of July.

voluntary winding up.
The subjoined report
on the bullion market is
from the circular of Messrs. Sharps and Wilkins :
We have no alteration to report in the price of bar silver
since our last. The principal demand stall continues to
be on German account, though a considerable amount has
lately been purchased for shipment to Spain. The late
rivals of Mexican dollars have, in.the absence of any China
demand, been taken by the refiners at ss. Id. per oz., at
which quotation the market closes with a firm appeanorance h-
.
A good demand for gold for export still exists, twit
standing which, however, the bulk of the late large receipts
from America have been retained in this eountry.
Subjoined is Messrs. Culverwell, Brooks, and
Co.'s report of yesterday's hide sales
At the eleventh series of hides sales for the year,
although the quantities brought forward were moderste,
yet they met with only a limited demand, with a t
sligh

the quantity offered being diposed of. Prices for Dam
