the market upon a Saner basis. Upon the other hand-
the continued pressure for money, the fresh
withdrawals of gold from the Bank of England for
the Bank of Frame, mid the abundant supply °lett)*
at the current monthly settlement, contribute to pre-
vent any material rally. After the recognised hours
. .

this afternoon there less s further decline of f per

ant. in Consols, upon a variety of adverse but moon•
firmed rumours.

Amongst the investors in the funds at the reduced
prices lately quoted, as appears from the names passed
at the pending settlement, are some of the assurance
companies. On the other hand, deliverise of stook
have been made by the Bank of England, with a
view to withdraw notes from circulation. The Bank
broker was to-day, however, a buyer of Console for
the account to some extent.

The demand for money to-day in Lombard•strsst
and elsewhere was very active, in great foe
Stock Exchange purposes, and full rates were ex.
anted. In the Stock Exchange money commanded
5 per cent. for loans on Consols from day to day.
With the exception of Amsterdam, where more
firma., prevailed yesterday, the continental stock
markets are weaker. At Vienna increased distrust is
indicated by an advance in the exchange on London
from 10.12 to 10.10 ; the Austrian funds are at the

same time quoted rather lower.
Consols, which closed yesterday at 91/ to / for the
Bth November, opened this morning at 91/ to 92,
advanced to 921, and eloped at 911 to j. The money
price left off the same as yesterday, at 91i to 1.
After the regular hours the Kiln for November wee
quoted 1 per cent. worse. The rate of continua-
tion " has remained at the high figure of to 9.18
per cent. to the conclusion of the settlement. -
The official business report is se follow. :—Three
per Cent. Consols, for money. 911.1. 1i 1. ill
ditto, for account Bth Nov., 911, 911, 921, 921. India
Stock, 2281, 229. Three-and•a-Half per Cent. Ex-
chequer Bonds, falling payable in 1838 and 1859, 99,
971, 981.
Exchequer Bills remain dull, at fis. to 9s. prem.
India Bonds were dealt in at Be. to Hs. prem.
We drew attention, yesterday, to the eligible
medium of investment afforded at present prioee by
Turkish Guaranteed Four per Cents., which must be
considered a British government stock equally with
Consols. There is another mound security to which
the attention of investors may also be called—we
allude to the Three-and a•lialf per Cent. Exchequer
Bonds, which become redeemable at par in 1868 and
1859. Sales of these bonds were pressed today as
low as 971, but a few investments subsequently
caused a rally to 981 to /. Taking into account the
proximity of the period at which these bonds are to
be redeemed, it in rarely that British government
securities can be bought to retarn so handsome a rate
of interest to the permanent investor.
Turkish Guaranteed Four per Cents. were in in-
creased demand today, and were marked as high as
100. The 4 o'clock quotation was 94 to 1, being
per cent. above that of yesterday. The Six per
Cents., on the other hand, were prejudiced by renewed
sales. After ranging between 97 and 971, the quota-
tion at 4 o'clock was 971 to 1, or per cent. worse
than that of yesterday. Dorieg the subsequent
nn hours sales of this stack were freely
and at the extreme aloes purchases could
have been effected at 981. Other foreign securities

exhibit no striking variation.
At Amsterdam yesterday (Tuesday) the exchange
on London was quoted 11.871 for short, and 11.47 f
for 3 months; at Hamburg, 18.24 for short, and
12.161 for 3 months; and at Berlin, 6.171. In each
' cue the rate quoted is more favourable to this
country.
