The rands remain heavy. A farther reduction of

per seat. was quoted in the morning, but present
quotations are nearly equal to the closing rates of
yesterday. The other Stock Exchange markets are
Consols for the 14th October, after being sold as
low as 901, are now quoted 901 to 5-18. For money,
the present price is 00 to f. Bank Stock
for account is marked 218 k; Exchequer Bills,
81. to 41. dia., being Satter; and Exchequer Bonds,
1859, 98f.
Turkish Six per Cents. are supported at 94; to
95. Spanish New Deferred Three per Cents. have
been desk in at 261; and Dutch Four per Cents. at
100. In other foreign stocks no business whatever
is reported.
The Calcutta and China mails are expected to be
delivered in London at mid-day to-morrow (Satur-
day).
The gold brought from Melbourne by the ships
Anglo-Saxon and Summer Cloud, amounting to
about 131,0001., was yesterday taken for exportation
to the Continent. The 98,0001. in gold ex the George
Marshall, from Sydney, reached London yesterday,
and will probably be purchased on continental ac-
want o-biy.
Thet steamer Albion has brought about 18,0001.
worth of silver from Boulogne.
The Sea Star has arrived from Shanghae, with
579,1001 be. of tea, and 1,009 bales of silk on freight.
The announcement of Lord Elgin's arrival at Cal-
cutta contributed to render the market for tea rather
firmer yesterday, as it is Resumed that our re-
lations with China must continue in an unsettled
state for a long time to come. For saltpetre higher
prices were paid. Tallow has declined.
A telegraphic despatch from Constantinople, dated
the 18th inst., quotes the exchange on London at 148
piastres. The last letters extended to the 4th, when
the quotation was 137 to 139. As no cause for any
further rise is assigned in these, it ia suggested that
the telegraph may be in error, and that 110 may be
meant. On the other band, the producing of violent
movements of the exchanges sow forme part of the
regular business of the native bankers and money-
dealers.
The definitive 51. Eight per Cent. Preference
shares (second issue, 41. paid) of the Netherlands
Land Enclosure Company are to be ready for deli-
very in exchange for the scrip certificates on the
29th inst.
The usual payment of 30f. per share, by way of
" interest," is about to fall due on the shares of the
Orleans Railway Company.
The Rut India Company have chartered another
of the fine steam fleet of the European and American
Steam Shipping Company, viz., the Calcutta, a screw
steamer of 2,300 tons. Every exertion is being made
by Messrs. Croekey and Co. to get this vessel ready
to embark troops. She is now at Southampton, and
her stores and accommodation will be completed
within a very few days. This vessel is one of the
fleet by which it was proposed by Messrs. Crosk.ey
and Co. to establish a direct and continuous tram-
port service across the Isthmus of Sues, this firm
undertaking to carry 2,000 men per month from
England to Bombay in 46 days, and at a price less
by 10,0001. for every one thousand men than that
paid by the long sea route. This proposal is, we
believe, still under the consideration of the East
India House authorities.

The screw steamier England arrived at the Mau-
ritius on the 23rd of July, from London. This vessel
being required by government for the conveyance of
troops from the Cape of Good Hope to loth; her
cargo had been landed at the Mauritius, and would
be forwarded to its destination by other vessels.

The Emigration Commissioners have chartered
the chip Str Charles Napier to convey emigrants
from Southampton to Melbourne at the rate of
151. 2s. 6d. per head; and the Telegraph, from Birk-
enheadto Sydeey, at 141.185. 11d.
The East India Company will receive tenders on
the 29rd inst. for the conveyance of 158 tons of dead
weight (including 500 casks of salt provisions) from
England b Kurrachee; of 200 tons of telegraph
wire from Liverpool to Bombay • 01290 tons of dead
'weight (including 600 maks of salt provisit is), end
150 tons of mcasuraltio goods from England to Cal-
mate ; and of 30 mike of telegraph cable (about 60
tons dead weight) from England to Colombo.

With reference to the market for American secu-
rities, Messrs. D. Beg, Son, and Co., report as fol-
lows :—" The market tor American securities during
the put week has, in spite of the panic in the New
York stock market, been animated; and instead of
stocks having been pressed for sale under the
influence of alarm, there has been a general demand,
without a corresponding supply. The only thing to
notice in respect to railroad securities is the large
business which hue been done, and is still doing, in
the shares of the Illinois Central Railroad Company."
The position of the market for American railway
securities is thus noticed by Mr. E. F. Satterthwaite
The market for American securities in Landon during the
pam week has fluctuated violently, owing to the estraor•
angry character of the advices from New York. The dispo-
sition of the
.public is very strong to invest at the seduced
rates; and so little is the depreciation in New York believed
to be genuine that tranaaations have taken place in Illinois
Auras at 3 dis. to par.; and to deg at Ito 3 prem.

THVBSDAT EVENING.

The funds to-day experienced several fluctuations.
In the morning flatness was observable; subse-
quently an improvement of per cent. from the
lowest point took place; and towards the close of
business there was a decided fall, owing to the re-
ported retrograde movement of General Havelock.
The closing quotations were 1 per cent. worse than
those of yesterday, and the market left off
with a heavy appearance. The fluctuations of the
day were chiefly traceable to the varying interpre-
tations put upon the Indian news but the market
is also prejudiced by the fact that the whole of the
recent supplies of gold are being diverted to the
Continent.

The demand for money in the discount market
and at the Bank wan to-day brisk, but not excessive.
Full rates arc exacted.

The value of money in many parts of the Conti-
nent is rising. Following the movement of the
Bank of Amsterdam, the Bank of Munich has raised
its rate of discount to 63 per cent., and an advance
is apprehended at Vienna and Frankfort.
Consols, which closed yesterday at 901 to for the
14th Oct., opened this morning at 901 to 1, gra-
dually advanced to 90/ to +3, and had fallen at the
close to 904 tot (" sellers ', at 90 6-16). For money
the last price was about 90. The official business
report is as follows:—Three per Cent. Consols, for
money, 901, 3, 3 1,3, 3, ; ditto, for account
(14th' Oct.), 901, 'l, ; India Stock, 210; Bank
Stock, for account, 218, 217, 218. Three-and-a-Half
per Cent. Exchequer Bonds, falling payable in
1838,981; ditto, 1869, 98;3, 981. India Bonds, 22e. die.
Exchequer Bills remain dull, at 7s. to 3s. dia.
Turkish Six per Cents. were marked 961 in the
morning, but had fallen at the close to 94/ to 95. In
othr foreign stocks scarcely any business was done.
Peruvian Four-and•a•Half per Cents. were nomi-
nally quoted 79 to 80, and Spanish Deferred Tbree
per Cents., 253 to 3. The list of sales is limited to
the following, vie.:—Dutch Four per Cent. Certify.,
100. Russian Five per Cents., 109; ditto, Four.
and-a-Half per Cents., 983. Spanish Old Three per
Cents., for account (30th Sept.), 40/. Turkish Six
per Cents., 953.
A considerable amount of business was again done
to-day in Illinois Central Railway shares, at a
further advance. Transactions took place from 4
to 51 prem. and the closing quotation was 4 to 6
prem. This company's bonds (1876), which three
days ago were quoted at 80 to 82 cum die. closed
to-day at 80 to 82 ex dir., showing an improvement
of 3 per cent.
The lumina closing quotations for the shares in
some of the new undertakings are subjoined, viz.:
