MONEY M&RKE7.-(THIS DAL)

Two o'Ciemi.
The funds to-day are well supported,
at yesterday's closing quotations, with little
business. The attention of the members
of the Stock Exchange is principally occupied
with the arrangement of the fortnightly
account in shares and foreign stocks, Mon-
day being settling day. With the exception
of a fall of * per cent. in Lancashire and Yorkshire
railway stock there is little alteration in prices.
At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's
telegram, the Three per Cent. Renter opened at
67fr. 45c., showing a fresh reduction of 1 per cent.
Consols are officially marked 911, *, and 1
for money, and 911 and for the account.
The present quotations are 911 to 1 for
cash, and 911 to for the 9th of May.
The official business report is as follows :
Bank Stock, 2281, 2261 ; Three per Cents.
Reduced, 90, 891 ; New Three per Cents.,
90, 891, 1, 90 ; India stock, 222 ;
ditto Five per Cent. stock, 100*, 1 ; ditto Four
per Cent. Debentures, 1859, 961 ; Five per Cent.
"enlaced" rupee paper, 93} ; ditto Five-and-a-
Half per Cent., 1001; Exchequer Bills, par, tle. dis.
Turkish Bonds are fiat : the Loan of 1864 is quoted
70 to ex div., and that of 1858, 63 to *. Mexican
Bonds are rather more offered. This department
generally is very quiet. Sales are recorded as fol-
lows :—Brazilian Old Five per Cents., 981 ex div. ;
Claim Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 83 ; Mexican
Three per Cents., 231, 1 ; New Grenada Active, 151;
Peruvian Uribarren Four-and-a-Half per. Cents.,
82 ; Portuguese Three perCents.,lB63, 46; Turkish
Six per Cente., 1854, 70, 691, ex div. ; ditto for
account, 691, ex div. ; ditto Six per Cents., 1858,
531, 521 ; ditto Guaranteed Fourper Ceuta., 1001.

HALF-PAST Two o'Cwci.
Consols show no change of importance compared
with the prices current at 2 o'clock, being quoted
91! for money, and 911 to 1 for the account.
In the Stock Exchange yesterday the supply of
money was extremely large, and two to three per
cent. was scarcely obtainable for short loans on
English government securities.
The alarming rumours circulated yesterday cannot
have extended to Vienna, for last evening's tele-
grams announce a movement of 1 per cent. in the
exchange in favour of Austria.
Only 7,000 i. in gold was bought by the Bank yes-
terday. The Atrato has arrived from the West
Indies, but has not brought more than 49,0001. in
specie.
The subjoined shows the rates of discount now
current in the principal continental cities, viz. :
Bank Rate. Open Market.
6 per Cent. ... 41 per Cent.
Vienna ...... 6
Berlin
Amsterdam 3 „ ... 3 „
Frankfort 3 ••• 11 f

The reduction in the Bank rate of discount to 5
per cent. has been followed, as was expected, by an
almost general decline in the continental exchanges.
Subjoined is our usual list :
Amsterdam, 3 months, 11.191 to 1201; ditto 3 days, 11.18

liabilities are limited.

The Caledonian Railway traffic return shows this

At the fortnightly settlement in the English

scarce. The rates of " continuation " were light,
though lees so in the afternoon. The following

ment of business :

The dividends were payable on Tuesday, the 9th.
Their payment has been attended with scarcely any
decrease in the reserve, owing to the large increase
in the private deposits and the decrease in the
private securities. 400,0001. in gold was bought by
the Bank during the week, but the increase in the
bullion is only 122,302!., the dividend payments
carrying out coin.
The Gazette specie statement for the week ending
Wednesday last gives the following totals, viz.:—
Imports of gold, 148,2901. ; exports of gold, 71,59 W. ;
imports of silver, 5,4921. ; exports of silver,
125, 2231.
