MONEY MARKET.-(THIS D. 4 Y)

Two eCwca.

The funds are slightly flatter to-day, a reductsoa
of I per ceut. having taken place. The market.
however, is steady in character. The other markets
are generally firm. English railway stocks an
buoyant, particularly Midland and Lancashire mai
Yorkshire.

At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter
telegram, the Three per Cent. Rental opened at
69fr. 23c., being about 1 per cent. better that
yesterday.
Console are officially marked 934, 94, and 934,
cum div., for money, and 924 and 4 ex div., far
the account. The present quotations are nepectively
934 to 4, and 924 to it. The official business report it
as follows:-Bank Stock, 229, 231 ; Three per Cents.
Reduced, 924, 1 ; New Three per Cents., 921, 4, 92;
New Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 78,77 ;Thirty Yearn
Annuities, 1885, 15 9-16 ; India Stock, 226, 224 ;
ditto Five per Cent. Stock, 107, 1064, 4, CUM div. ;

faced" rupee paper, 984: ditto Five-and-a-Half
per Cent., 1061; Exchequer Bills, March, 9a.,
prem. ; ditto June, 18s., 17s. prem.
The foreign stock market is quiet. There
is a relapse in Mexican Bonds, which are lank
marked 274. Yesterday's rise in the Spanish
Coupon Certificates is scarcely maintained.
Turkish Bonds are steady. The last transactions
recorded
in the Loan of 1868 are at 694, showing
an improvement. The official business report is as
follows :-Buenos Ayres Six per Cents., 91 ; Mexi-
can Three per Cents., for account, 274, 4, 4 ; Pore•-

The ease in the discount market yesterday was
as great as ever. Good bills were taken at 24
per oent., or 1 below the minimum of the Bank of
England. The applications to that establishment
were limited.

The rise in the French funds is apparently being
promoted by the government, with a view to as
early loan. Rumours are still circulated that
M. Fould will enter the Ministry of Finance.
Others, to the effect that the Bank of France is in
a somewhat easier position, contribute to produce a
more cheerful tone. A large quantity of corn,
bought by the French government at three months'
date, has, however, yet to be paid for. ,
The fortnightly settlement in shares and foreign
stocks will commence to-morrow (" continuation
day") and terminate on Friday.
About 130,0001. in gold, which was taken to be
refined out of some recent supplies, was sent into
the Bank yesterday. 291,5001., reported yesterday
by the Anglaise from Melbourne, will also be take&
to the Bank after undergoing a similar proors.
The Ethiope, from the West Coast of Africa,
has brought about 5,5001.
At Liverpool yesterday the transactions in cotton
were large, reaching 20,000 bales, of which 12,009
were on speculation or for export. There was an
advance of id. to id. in the price of Surat.
It is stated that Meier. Kelly and Co., the
publishers of the Post-office London Directory,
whose stoppage has already been mentioned, will
probably be able to pay 20s. in the pound, provided
a question connected with a valuable copyright can
be satisfactorily settled.
Rumours are already current that the next di-
vidend of the Midland Railway Company will be at
the rate of 7 per cent. per annum as a minimum, not-
withstanding the dulness of trade. It is also said
that new arrangements are in progress calculated
further to develop this company's traffic.
