MONEY MARKET-THIS DAY.

Two o'CLooi.

The funds to-day, though as inactive is before,
are farmer. An improvement of about per cent.
has taken place. The principal business in the Stock
Exchange hos consisted of the payment and receipt
of the' differences" accruing on the settlement just
completed in shares and foreign stocks. The tone
throughout the establishment is somewhat stronger
than during the last day or two.

The New Indian Loin, both scrip and stock, is
quoted 1034 to 1, being firm.

The opening price of the Three pa Cent. Rents, I
at Faris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's
telegram, was 69fr. 95c. for the account, being 6c.
lower than yesterday.
Consols are officially marked 96 and 961 for
money, and96l and 1 for the account. The present
quotations are 961, " sellers," for cash, and 961 to
for the 6thof December. Bank Stock haabeen dealt in
at 226 and 2271; the Three per Cents. Reduced, at
041,1, and ; the New Three per Cents., at 941, 1,
1,1, and 1 ; India Stock at 296 and 228; the
New Indian Loan (stock), at 1031, 1,1, 1,1,
and 1 ; the Four per Cent. Debentures of 1868,
at 961; ditto, 1869, at 96, 91q, and 961; India
Bonds, at 2s. die. to 2s. prem. ; and Exchequer Bills,
at 275. to 30s. prem.
The foreign stock market is likewise quiet.
Turkish stocks are fully supported at the improve-
ment which took place yesterday afternoon. The
loan of 18.54 is quoted 77 to 1, and that of 1838, 66
to 1. There are more inquiries for Mexican Bonds.
Other foreign stocks are inactive. Sales are re-
corded as follows :—Braidlian Four-and.a.Half per
Cente., 1868, 981;' Dutch Four per Cent.
Certificates, 1001, 100 ; Mexican Three per Cents.,
221 ; ditto for account, 221; New Granada Active
Bonds, 161 ; Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents.,
991; ditto Three per Cents., 1869 (scrip),
die.; Spanish Three per Cents., 441; Turkish Six
per Cents., 1854, 761, 77; ditto Six per Cents,
1868, for account, 661, 661; ditto Guaranteed Four
per Cents., 1031 ;VeneznelaOne per Cent., 141.

The shares of the Ocean Marine Insurance Com-
pany are somewhat flatter, at If to lf prem.
Two begs of sovereigns, weighing about 18lbe•
each, and two boxes of gold, one weighing about
661 be., were recovered yesterday from the wreck of
the Royal Charter.
There is still an active demand for money, and the
appearance of the market is not quite so settled ea of
late, neither are the terms equally uniform. Trans-
actions take place occasionally in short bills at 2;,1
but they appear to be quite exceptional, 21 being the
minimum in most quartets, whilst many houses ask
21 and 2f.
The final instalment of 26 per cent. falls due on
the Indian 6,000,0001. Loan on Tuesday next, but the
sum remaining to be paid is believed to be less
than 160,0001.

We published yesterday a report of the decision
of the Lord Chancellor and the Lords 'mikes
upon the application made to them to authorise
the investment of a certain frost fund in the New
Indian Loan. There cannot be two opinions as to the
advisability of the law upon the point being made
, clear. A bill ought to be introduced with the least
possible delay legalising the investment of trust
funds in all clams of the Indian government loans,
the security being virtually that of Great Britain.
The rupee paper, though relatively much less likely
to attract investments of this character, cannot logi-
cally be excluded, since it rests upon precisely the
same basis u the new Indian 5 per cent. Loan. Let
the line be drawn at any point, however, but let the
law of the cue be relieved from the reproach of
unintelligibility.
The ensuing settlement in shares and foreign
stock. has been fixed for Wednesday, the 30th inst.
There were no bullion operations at the Bank yes-
terday. The 98,0001. by the Europa and Hammonia
was purchased for transmission abroad.
Government will probably despatch about
200,0001. in specie to Calcutta, and 50,0001. to Hong
Kong, by the steamer of the 20th inst. The amount
of silver as yet purchased on private account is
limited, and there does not seem to be much prospect
of its being greatly increased.
The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon were
steady. In one or two instances, including Ham-
burg, the rates were a trifle higher. They are given
below :

Amsterdam, three months, 11.161 to I ; ditto sheet, 11.131
to , slues months, 11.161 to 16; Antwerp,
three months, 26.26 to 30 ; Ratakrarg, marks eanco, three
months, 13.61 to ; PariA three days' sight, 26.71
to 121; ditto, three moths, 26.321 to 35 ; Frent-on-thw
liana, three months, 1171 to I ; Petershvg. per rouble,
three months, 34 to ; Visena, ed. flo., three months,
12.66 to 76; Trieste, ditto, throe months, 12.65 to 76;
Madrid, throe math., 461 to 1; Cadiz, three months,
491 to 60 ; Leghorn, three months, 30.20 to 30; Genoa,
three months, 26.421 to 7; ; Naples, three months, 401 to I;
