MONEY MARKET-FELS 4J4Y.

Two feeLool.

The funds to-day are steady at the closing quo-
tations of yesterday, with very little business. The
government broker has taken another parcel of
10,0001. Reduced Three per Cent. stock. In the
other markets dullness prevails, and prices present
little alter►tion.

Consols are very quiet, at 98f to e for money, and
981, " buyers," for Nov. 10. Bank Stock has been
dealt in at 2211 ; the Three per Cents. Reduced, 971
to 1 ex dir. ; the New Three per Cents., at 97f
to f, ex div. ; India Stock at 221 to 223; Indian
Four per Cent. Debentures of the first issue,
at 991 to 1 ; ditto, Scrip of the second
issue, at 991; India Bonds, at 12s. to 16s.
prem.; Exchequer Bills, March, at 38s. to 40s.
prem.; ditto, Jane, at 30s. to 325. prem. Exchequer
Bills exhibit a fresh advance.

In the foreign stock market the
in prices is principally confined to the nes
Turkish Loan. The Scrip of the Ist series
has risen to If to 1$ prem., and that of
the second series to 21 to 3 prem. The Turkish
Guaranteed Four per Cents. continue in demand
for investment. The Brazilian Loan of the present year
is marked prem.; Mexican, Russian, and Spanish
Bonds have met with a few inquiries. Sales are
recorded u follows:—Brazilian Four-and-a-Half
per Cents., 1858, 97i ; Buenos Ayres Six per Cents.,
for account, 78; Danish Five per Cents., 104;
Mexican Three per Cents., for account, 201, ex
div. ; Peruvian Four-and-a-Half per Cent.
Dollar Bonds, 77 (exchange, 4a.) ; Portuguese
Three per Cents., 1863, for account, 46i ;
Rug= Fire per Cents., for account, 112; Spanish
New Deferred Three per Cents., 301 ; Turkish Six per
Cents., 1864, for account, (Oct. 29), 94 ex div. ;
ditto Six per Cents., 1868 (scrip of the first series),
for account, 11, 1, 11, prem. ; ditto Guaranteed Four
per Cents., 1051; ditto, for account, 106;.
Although there is still a general conviction
that the money market will continue extremely
easy, it is recognised that the movement of the
German money markets, which is influencing the
exchanges, and drawing specie so freely from
France, constitutes a little check to over-sanguine
expectations. Coupling with these considerations
the change in the silver market, and the commence-
ment of remittances of specie on account of the
Turkish loan, the hesitation of the Bank directors
to lower the rate of discount is acooanted for.

The demand for money yesterday, partly in con-
nexion with the fortnightly settlement in shares and
foreign stocks, was nnasnaily active, particularly in
the afternoon. The minimum rate for bills of a
high class was 21 per pent. At the Bank there
were few applications.

At Hamburg the rate of discount is 21 to 21 per
cent.: at Frankfort, Berlin, and Leipsic, 6 per neut.;
and at Vienna, 5 per cent. at tke bank, and ai to 6
per cent. in the open market. The Bank of Vienna
usually holds a large amount of bills on foreign
cities. By realising these, and at the same time
selling stock, it is enabled to attract silver from
various quarters. The pressure thus exercised, how-
ever, will probably cease by the lit November, when
the bulk will be under engagement to meet in specie
the notes of the new currency which may be pre-
sented for payment. Its immediate object will then
have been attained.

The committee of the Stock Exchange have ap-
pointed Wednesday next speed settling day for the
scrip of the second series of the Turkish loan.
The steamer La Plata, from the West Indies, has
brought 184,7001. in specie, of which 106,0001. con-
sists of silver and 78,7001. of gold.
The Cambria will probably arrive at Southampton
on Monday, with the heavy portion of the Australian
mail, and with the 167,0001. in gold which reached
Suez by the last steamer.
The demand for silver for transmisaion to the East
has increased during the last day or two. The
steamer Ceylon, which will leave on the 20th, is
expected to take out about 100,0001., principally for
China. The bulk of this amount hes yet to arrive
from the Continent. This is another cause of the
flatness of the exchanges. A portion of the incoming
supplies of gold may yet be diverted to the
Continent.

The steamer Adonis is expected to arrive on Wed.
nesday or Thursday from St. Petersburg with a
considerable amount of gold.
On 'Change yesterday afternoon bills on the Conti-
nent were ageon in demand, especially on Holland
and Hamburg, the rates on which places show a fur-
ther unfavourable movement. As regards Paris and
Frankfort, little alteration occurred. The St. Peters-
burg exchange is still moving in favour of this
country.
At Constantinople on Thursday the exchange
on London wu quoted 149 piastres. The ex-
change at Smyrna and Beyrout having also
fallen, gold is being remitted from those ports to
Constantinople. This is one of the benefits resulting
to Turkey from the successful negotiation of the loan,
and from the stimulus which has consequently been
given to confidence.
The mail from Bombay arrived at Malta on Thurs-
day, and will, it is believed, be distributed in London
about the 19tkinst. _

During the last two days the market has been
heavily supplied with shares of the London General
Omnibus Company, upon orders transmitted from
Paris. The depreciation of this property has now
made most serious progress, the 41. shares, fully paid
up, being quoted yesterday afternoon to 1 16-16.
At the general meeting of shareholders, held in Paris
on Wednesday, it was decided that no dividend shall
be paid for the last half-year, but that the sum set
forth as profits shall be applied to meeting the
general financial requirements of the company.
This result corroborates the intimation given
in the Express two or three weeks ago,
hat the accuracy of which was promptly &-
Med by the y's representatives. At the
meeting on Wednesday it was also decided
that the eorapeny shall be converted into an
English one, and be registered under the English
law of limited liability. One of the first formalities,
with • view to this object, will consist of the calling
in of the scrip for registration.
Shareholders in the Antwerp and Rotterdam
Railway Company have been in expectation of
receiving a dividend of 4t per share on the let of
November, bat it appears that the directors do not
see their way to making this distnintion.
Advises from Paris report a large increase in the
traffic of the Paris and Lyons Railway.

obtained on advantageous terms. Allusion is =de

and the directors pledge themselves to adopt every
legitimate MOW of enlisting the support of the pub-
lic. The capital is fixed at 40001., is 6,000 shares

W. MILLER. Dep4trai;nliii:

This return exhibits the effect of the payment of
the dividends, which commenced on Wednesday..
Owing to the ease of the money market the dividend
funds were retained in the Bank under the head of
" other " deposits. Hence the comparatively small
amount of the decrease in the "reserve." The
" other" securities continue to decline. The decrease
in the government securities probably represents the
diminution in value of government annuities held by
the establishment. The Bank are known to have
bought 400,0001. in newly imported gold during the
week referred to, but have parted with coin to more
than that amount.
The Gazette statement of the movement of the
precious metals for the week ending Wednesday
last gives the following totals, viz.:—lmports of
gold, 250,8501. • exports of gold, 90,4821. ; imports
of silver, 7,0781.; exports of silver, 74,4981.

FRIDAY ETZNINCI.
The vague rumour of bad news from India, which
was set afloat yesterday afternoon, having received
no confirmation, the funds opened this morning with
more firmness. At one period an improvement of
1 per cent was presented, bat the closing quotations
were barely I per cent. better than those of yester-
darn the other departments of the Stock Exchange
the tendency of prices was more favourable.
Although there is an outstanding speculation grow-
ing, operatiou for higher prices are encouraged by
the immense monetary facilities now at the com-
mand of the speculator.
Consols, which closed yesterday. at 981 to 1 for
the lath Nov., opened this morning at 98/ to 1,
advanced to 981 to /, and closed at 98 1, rather
" buyers." For money the last price was 981 to 1.
The government brokers buy a small parcel of stock
daily. The official business report is as follows :
Three per Cent. Console, for money, 981, 1,1, 1;
ditto, for account (10th Nov.), 981,1, f, 1 ; Three
per Cent. Reduced, 971, 1, 1 ex div. • New Three
per Cents. 971,1, 1,1, ex div. ; the New Two-
and-a-Half per Cents., 821, 82; lank Stock, 2211,
220; Indian Four per Cent. Debentures of the first
issue, 991, 1, ; ditto of the second issue, 99/, 991;
the scrip at the second issue, 991, 992.
The debentures of the first Indian loan remain
quoted 991 to 4, and the scrip of the second loan,
WW to 4.
Exchequer Bills were in better demand to-day,
especially the June, which have risen to 28s. to 31s.
prem. The March Bills were dealt in et 365. to 395.
prem., and India Bonds at 12s. to lbs. prem.
Numerous transactions took place in foreign stocks.
The scrip of the first series of the Turkish loan rose
to le to 11 prem., and closed at Ito If prem. The
scrip of the second series, after touching 21 to 21
prem. left off at 2to 21 prom. The Six per Cents.
of 18i4 improved per cent., being last quoted 94
to lex div. The Turkish Guaranteed Four per
Cents., as well as Dutch and Russian Bonds, con-
tinue in demand. Spanish Deferred Three per
Cents. left off at 301 to 4.• Spanish Passive Bonds
and Anglo-Peruvian Three per Cents. were more
offered. Mexican Bonds were qmoted 201 to 1 ex div.
