COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.

MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAL)

(lira .'Owaz.
In the Stock it to-day prices show in-
creased firmness, owing principally to purchaaes to
cover previous speculative sales for a fall. There
is a fair inquiry for the funds, which have ad- i
vanced per cent. for the new account. The im-
provement in British railways ranges from
per cent., the chief upward movement
being in Great Northern. The only change of
importance in foreign stocks is a fresh fall in Italian
of 1861. Banking and financial shares are in
rather more request, and have risen in some cases.
The dealers are still engaged in the monthly settle-
ment in Consols, which will be completed to-
morrow. The amount of business generally is
limited.

In the matter of Overeud, Gurney, and Co.
(Limited), the Defence Committee have addressed
a circular to the shareholders, in which they make
the subjoined general explanation of the position
taken by them in the matter :
On the general subject of our liability, we owe it to our-
selves and to our supporters to draw a practical tlibtinaion
between the creditors of the private brit and thus of the
limited company. Supposing the latter to have
us, the former, representing, we believe, a
large prupottion of the alleged a4gregate of live millions
and a quarter, cannot derive any strength Iron. the
analogy. Oa the contrary, considering that at the time of
the transformation, the private firm was hopelessly in-
solvent, they virtually became our debtors fur the
1,51/0,000/. advanced by us for their relief.
