MOAT!' MARKET-THIS DAY.

Two o'Ctoci.
The funds this morning have shown a little
datums. A reduction of / per cent., which
was quoted at one period of the morning,
has, however, been reLovered, and present quota-
tons are equal to those current at four o'clock yes-
terday. The government broker has purchased
15,0001. Consols for the Savings Banks.
In the Share markets dulness prevails.
The scrip of the Russian Loan is quoted par to
prem. The ladies Loan, after declining to 981
to 99, his recovered to 99 to 1. •
The first price for the Three per Cent. Ream, at
Paris, to-day, according to Mr. Renter's telegram,
wee 68fr. 96c. for the account, being 1 per cent.
better than at the close yesterday.
Consols are officially marked 95Z tog for money,
and 951 for the account. The present quotation is
951 to 1 both for money and the 7th of September.
The Three per Cents. Reduced have been dealt in at
931 to 961; the New Three per Cents., at 951 to
961; India Stock, at 2161; the Four per Cent.
Debentures, 1869, at 95 ; the scrip of the New Loan,
at 981 to 99; India Bonds, at 3e. dia. ; and Exche-
quer Bills, at 200. to 245. prem.
The foreign stock market is generally steady
The Old Turkish Six per Cents. remain quoted 83
to 64, and the New, 701 to 711, ex die.
Sardinian, Spanish, end Peruvian Bonds con-
tines to attract some attention. Sales are

40,000 sovereigns.

HALF-PAST TWO O'CLOCK.
Consols have not changed, being still quoted 95,
to 5, both for money and the account.
The discount market yesterday was very active.
Little or no business was done below 25 per cent. ;
and the applications at the Bank were large. The
bills maturing on the 4th and the Indian Loan set-
tlement on Monday render it probable that the
market will continue somewhat stringent. It
appears that the sum paid on Thursday in advance
the instalments on the Indian Loan was about
300,0001., making a total of nearly 1,000,0001.
lodged in advance. This is equivalent to a million
and a quarter of stock, the payments in advance
referring to the sum of 75 per cent, which remains
to be liquidated.
The scrip of the Indian Loan was first marked yes-
terday morning 991, fell to 955 to PO, and closed at 99
to 5. A considerable amount of the paid-up stock
wan purchased at 99. The scrip is quoted sto 5
par cent. higher than the stock, holder. of the
fot.ner retaining the right of paying up under di.-
count at 3 per cent.
The scrip of the new Russian Loan was steady, at
i to i preen.
Electric telegraphic communication with a"
quarters was singularly disturbed and very uncertain
yesterday, owing to some peetiliu atmospheric in-
fluence. No telegrams were received from the Paris
Bourse until after the close of the Stock Exchange.
The 314,0001. in gold by the Avon and Prince of
the Sees was delivered yesterday ; 12,0001. was sent
into the Bank, and more is likely to follow, the di
mend from the Continent having slackened.
The Fulton has arrived from New York with
40,0001. in specie; the Tasmanian, from Brazil,
with 26,41014 and the Dane, from the Cape of
Good Hope, with 10,0001.
The steamer Pen will sail to-morrow with
434,6621. in specie for the East, of which 4,3261. is
gold, and the rest silver. The government remit-
tenon to Calcutta amount to 278,0001. Annexed
are the particulars. viz.:—For talcutta, 300,4101.;
Hong-Kong, 84,8331.; Shughae, 36,6191.; Singapore,
10,0404 ; Ceylon, 3,0001. ; Madras, 7601.
The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon were
firm. The tate for bills in Holland has improved.
The quotations are shown below :
Amur:dem, three months, 11.161 to 17 ditto short
11.145 to 151 ; Rotterdam, three mouths, 11.161 to 17;

Oporto. 90 days, 615 to 62.
Afresh riseoceurred yesterday in thetallowmarket.
A further considerable advance is said to have taken
place at St. Petersburg, where the speculative
buyers have carried their orerations to such a point
uto induce a belief that the sellers cannot pos.,
eibly fulfil their engagements at the impending
. settlement of the 31st of August (12th of September)
without buying back at such prices as the operators
fur a rise may choose to accept. In fact, the latter
party estimate that they have bought a larger
quantity of tallow than exists in St. Petersburg. In
this case the price may yet ries greatly until the
12th inst. shall have passed. It frequently falls
within the power of the great gamblers in this
article of primary necessity to work prices up or
down at two or three successive " settlements ; but
the instances in which an attempt to " rig" the
market has permanently succeeded are very few
indeed. When the Burka speculators shall
attempt to sell—and tell they must at some time—
the market will doubtless break down.
The traffic on the Trieste line of the Lombardo-
' Venetian Railway Company for the week ending the
26th August was 38,835/. ' • being 14,7561. more than
in the corresponding week of last year; and that on
the Lombardo-Venetian line 12,3111., showing an
increase of 2,2451.
It is notified that the Great Eastern is intended to
leave her moorings on Tuesday, the oth inst.
A meeting of bondholders of the Northern Railway
of Canada (Lake Ontario, Sirocoe, and Lake Huron)
was held yesterday, at the Guildhall Coffee-house.
Mr. Cumberland, the vice-president, explained to the
meeting the position and prospects of the company,
and the measure of relief authorised by the Canadian
legislature. It was resolved that the bondholders
should avail themselves of the liberal offer made by
raising the preferential capital required by the legis-
lature, which would, in their opinion, tend materially
to moue the value of the present bonds.
The subjoined weekly summary of the produce
markets is extracted from the circular issued last
evening by Messrs. W. J. and H. Thompson :

nisi Foam toirkiite, which c winue (pie', Lot prior of the
