MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.)

Two o'CLoci.

The funds to-day are firm. A further improve-
ment of per cent, has taken place iu Consols.
Business is limited. In the share markets there is
likewise an entire absence of animation, and prices
have scarcely varied. Midland Railway stock con-
tinues in favour.

At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter*K
telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentee opened at
68fr. 75c., showing no change.

Consols are officially marked 93/, /, and /, rum
div., for money, and 921 ex div., for the account.
The present quotations are 93k to f, rum div., for
cash, and 92k to 1, ex div., for the sth of Dec.
The official business report is as follows :—Bank
Stock, 229, 230 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 911,
1, k ; New Three per Cents., 911, 11, i ; India
Stock, 225 ; ditto Five per Cent. Stock, 106/,
1,106 k, cum div.; ditto for account, 103/, ex
div. ; ditto Bonds, 125., 15s. prem.: Five per
Cent. " enfaced" rupee paper, 97k, 98, 971 ; ditto
Five-and-a-Half per Cent., 105 ; Exchequer Bills,
75., 10s. prem. ; ditto small, 10s. prem.
The foreign stock market is quiet. Mexican
Bonds have been rather more offered, and
are last marked 271 and 271. The Turkish loan
of 1854 is steady, at Mt to 1 ; and that of 1858, at
671 to 68. The Spanish Coupon Certificates are
likewise supported at yesterday's quotation.
Sales are recorded as follows :—Dutch Two-
and-a-Half per Cents., for account, 641 ; ditto
Four per Cent. Certificates, for account, 100/ ;
Equador New Consolidated, 151 ; Mexican Three
per Cents., for account, 27/, 1,1, 1 ; Sardinian
Five per Cents., for account, 821 ; Spanish New
Deferred Three per Cents., for account, 42/ ; the
Committee's Certificates, 6/, ; Turkish Six per
Cents., 1854, 79/ ; ditto Six per Cents.,
.1858, for
account, 68, 67k, 68 ; ditto 100 i. Bonds, 681, 69/ ;
Venezuela Three per Cents., 22/.
From the plethora of money, and the fall of the
rates of discount in the open market to a point
nearly per cent, below the reduced charge now
adopted by the Bank, yesterday's measure had
been anticipated. Yet there are not want-
ing persons who are inclined to deprecate
it, having regard to the tendency of the
continental exchanges, to the financial embarrass-
ments in France, and to the result of the harvest
in this kingdom, particularly in Ireland. The
length of the deliberations of the directors yesterday
was supposed to indicate some difference of opinion
at the Bank board. It is obvious, however, that
yesterday's decision is in accordance with the rules
by which the policy of the Bank is usually guided.
In consequence of the alteration at the Bank, the
joint-stock banks have reduced the rate allowed for
deposits from 2/ to 2 per cent., except that the
London and Westminster allow only 1 for sums
below 500/. The discount establishments will
henceforward give 2 per cent. (instead of 2/) "at
call," and 21 (instead of 21) "at notice."
There was a fair demand yesterday in the diac
count market at 21 to 21 per cent, for choice paper.
At the Bank of England the applications were
still very limited, notwithstanding the reduction in
the rate.

There is a renewal of speculative excitement in
the Liverpool cotton market. The sales yesterday
have sprung up to 25,003 bales, of whicn 15,000
have been taken on speculation and for exportation.
Prices show an upward tendency.

The Eastern Counties Railway traffic return
shows this week au increase of 1,846/. ; the
Great Western an increase of 6341. ; the London
and South Western an increase of 1,0971. ; the
North Eastern a decrease of 2,1391. ; the Midland
an increase of 1,0611. • the Great Northern an
increase of 2,1991. ; and the Meichester, Sheffield,
and Lincolnshire, an increase of 31.
The receipts of the Grand Trunk Railway of
Canada for the week ending the 19th October were'
19,8311. sterling, being. 3,1821. more than in the
corresponding week of last year.
Messrs. Eykyn Brothers, of Change-alley, Corn-
hill, and the Stock Exchange, have put forward a
notice, intimatingto those shareholders in the Bank
of Turkey who, though not attending the consulta-
tions of Mr. Mendes and his friends, have shared
equally with them in the advantage arising from
the agitation for the return of the deposit, that they
will be happy to become the medium through which
contributions may be passed to the fund for liqui-
dating the legal outlay, and remunerating Mr.
Mendes for Hs exertions. No doubt this invita-
tion will be generally responded to.
The following letter relates to the "Bank of
Deposit and National Assurance and Investment
Association " of Pall-mall East, the affairs of
which are said to be in a very bad state :
