MOREY NARIBT.-THIS DAY.

Two °Two'.

The hinds today have attained a rise of about
1 per cent. owing to the American news, which is
favourable. The public also continue to absorb
stock, and the Mositesr publishes a highly favour-
able statement relative to the French finances.
Consols for the 10th November were first marked
891, and have since risen to 891 to 1. Foe money
the present prios is 891. The Three per
Cents. Reduced are marked 881 to 1; the New
Three per Cents., 881 to 1; India Stock, 211 and
2091; Bank Stock, 209 end 207 ;•Exchequer
13s. to 10s. dia. ; and India Bonds, 46e. dia.
Turkish Six per Cents. have risen to 881 to
for the 16th November. The Guaranteed Four
per Cents. are marked 981, being also
better. Other foreign stocks are steady. The
sales include Brazilian Old Five per Cents., at 991
to 100; Danish Three per Cents., at 831; Mexican
Bonds, at 19 to 191; Peruvian Four-and-a-Half per
Cents., at 77 ; and Russian Five per Cents., at 104/.
At the Bank of England yesterday the demand for
money was again very active. This is partly owing
to the fact that the terms " out of doors" are in
nearly all cases above those of the Bank. In the
Stock Exchange, on the other hand, owing to the
investments of the public, there is still witnessed the
oontradietory feature of a superabundant supply of
money. Loans on government stock were obtain-
able yesterday at 6 per cent. up to the next settle-
ment in Console, viz., the 10th November.

Parcels of bar gold to the amount of about 24,00 W.
were yesterday withdrawn from the Bank, for ex-
portation to the Continent, in payment for silver.
As we have before pointed out, there is
room to apprehend that some considerable
withdrawals will shortly take plane, anima
a "apply of gold comes in immediately from
Australia. During the last day or two, a total of
about 80,0001. in silver has arrived in the Thames
from Boulogne and Antwerp, and further large 'ap-
plies are following, destined for shipment to the
East by the Ripon on the 4th of November. It is
at present computed that the total remittances by
that yawl will reach, if not exceed, 900,0001., in-
cluding the quarter of a million in silver despatched
by the East India Company. A good portion of this
amount has yet to be procured from the Continent,
and in default of any supply of bar gold in the open
market, recourse must be had to NNW extent to the
stock of gold in the Bank of England for
the means of payment. The shipments by
the Ripon will be chiefly prevented from
attaining a still more important aggregate
by the fact, that the rate of inanzence on silver to
India, the general range of which is about lie. Id.
per oent., yesterday advanced to 40s. per cent. The
underwriters do not feel disposed to inordinately ex-
tend their risks on any one vessel, and accordingly
raise their terms. . _ .

Nothing of • more satisfactory character has tran-
spired respecting the affairs of the Borough Bank of
Liverpool. The hope of making such arrangements
as would enable it to re-open its doors, and pay off
the numerous claimants, seems to have been finally
abandoned. We understand, however, that a good
deal of paper bearing the bank's endorsement, has
been otherwise provided for, and this will of course
tend to limit the area of the disaster. It is under-
stood that a meeting of the shareholders will be
shortly held.
It is stated on good authority that the affairs of
the Western Bank of Scotland, with reference to
which much discussion has of late been going on,
have been satisfactorily arranged. Support having
been accorded by some of the wealthy shareholders
and other parties, all the engagements of the insti-
tution will be met in due course, and it is probable
that measures will be taken to preserve the valuable
business acquired by it.
As the transfer office at the Bank of England will
be closed on Monday next (the 2nd of November),
the Stock Exchange will probably be also closed.
The failure of a member of the Stock Exchange
was announced yesterday, in connexion with the
settlement in shares, but the amount for which he
is liable does not appear to be considerable.
The price of bar silver remains quoted be. 1 pi. per
ounce.
The facts adduced on the recent trial of Messrs.
Evans and Thorne, with reference to the system that
obtains in the management of the Submarine Tele-
graph Company, have too important a bearing to be
allowed to escape full discussion. The complete
seemly of messages is a point the securing of which
is absolutely indispensable for the protection of the
public who use the wires ; and if the slightest doubt
be permitted to rest upon the subject, the vital inte-
rests of the company will be imperilled. It is per-
fectly clear that neither directors nor any other
officials, except the clerks who actually receive and
read messages, and work the instruments, ought to
know anything of the intelligence transmitted, and
the clerks themselves ought to be subjected to the
closest supervision. We invite the attention of the
shareholders to these points, for, in plain terms,
• slur rests upon the Company as a result of the late
trial, and the removal of this may be of mends' im-
portance to the welfare of their undertaking. It is
only by the multiplication of check upon check that
the jealousy of the public will be satisfied, and the
Submarine Telegraph Company have now an excel-
lent opportunity of setting themselves right in public
estimation by describing the new safeguards which
they intend to initiate. The question is one of wide
importance, for we all look forward to the time
when, under • more expeditions and economical
system. the electric telegraph will to a great extent
supersede the Poet-office, and every obstacle to the
free and extended working of this great engine of
modern progress must be removed as detrimental to
the public weal.
On the 23rd September last a notification was
issued by the government of the United States offer-
ing, until the let of November next, to purchase cer-
tificates of the Federal Debt upon the following
terms, via., 10 per cent. prem. on the loan of 1842,
and 18 per cent, prem. on the loans of 1847 and
1848. Same large amounts of bonds of the latter
loans were, in consequence, recently despatched from
Europe to New York, and the holders have been
astonished at learning by the last advices that the
United States treasury refuse to pay them off. It
appears that at this, the eleventh hour, the autho-
nttes have suddenly discovered that they have no
power to reduce the balance in the Treasury below
a certain fixed amount. It would have been
more to the credit of the government to
have discovered the fact sooner, instead of platting
the holders to unnecessiu/ inconvenience. Having
once issued the notice, the government ought surely
to have carried out their agreement.
The sugar market yaSv•&y was again Ont. Planta-
tion Ceylon coffee, however, realised en advance of
Is. to 2s. per quarter, in public ale. Three hundred
bales of cotton were sold yesterday at prices which
exhibit the important fall of Id.. per lb. from the late
highest point of the market.
A telegram transmitted to Lloyd's, from Revel,
mentions that the steamer Napoleon, Capt. Amery,
from Hull to Cronstadt, is aground on Defoe, with
11 feet of water in her hold. A portion of the cargo,
consisting of 100 bales of cotton and five casks of
wine, had been saved.
An instalment of 201. on the nominal amount of
the preferential bonds of the Grand Trunk Railway
Company of Canada, for which provisional °anti&
catee have been issued, will be due on the 20th of
November. These bonds bear interest at the rate of
six per cent, per annum, and are repayable on the
Met Dec., 1881.
A call of V, 10a. per share has been made on the
shares of the Anstrilian Land and Emigration Coaa-
pany (limited), payable as follows :-11. 104. by the
26th of November, and 11. by the 6th of January.

A petition for the winding up of the United
General Breed and Flour Company for Plymouth.

With reference to the market for American secu-
rities, Messrs. D. Bell, Son, and Co. report u
follows : . .

The
demand for Arouricen escuritko continues ram and
the inerket shows every symptom of general improvement.
The report of Mr. E. F. flatterthwaito is sub-
, joined . . _ . .

There has been a steady demand for American esearitim
daring the pad week. Traneactions have bum *calve in
Maces shares at a decline, the lowest point touched being
11 discount. Construction Bonds declined to 70. We note
moderate transactions in New York Central Band, and
sharesattLnevions rates, and in Brie share. end Third Mott-
. At the dose the market ha. received some
strength from the improved secants received from New
York by the City of Washington. Illinois shares have
beset dons at 9 sad 10 discount ; Conetructien Bonds at 72.

TRVIUIDAY EV/INDIO.

The funds to-day have attained a further improve-
ment of fully 1 per cent, owing chiefly to the con-
tinued investments of the public, coupled with the
somewhat lees unsettled appearance of monetary
affairs in the United States. The market may be
said to have left off at the best point of the day, for
after the recognised hours a further slight improve-
ment was attained. Amongst the considerations
which tend to check the advance are the tightness of
the discount market, the apprehension of farther
commercial embarrassments, and the continued un-
favourable tendency of the bullion movement.
