MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY).

ONE O'CLOCK.
TEe Eogliafi funds this morning,
but have since improved i per cent. upon purchases
to oover sales which were made yesterday fora tall.
Riilway stocks are inactive, and foreign bonds dull.
Banking, financial, and miscellaneous shares
are very inactive. The amount of fresh business
generally is limited, attention being almost exclu-
sively directed to the completion of the fortnightly
account. Contrary to expectation, the failure is
announced of two members of the Stock Exchange,
in connexion with the arrangement of the account.

- - - -- --- -
Owing chiefly to the payment of the 1,800,0001.
on the Orel-Vitebsk Railway Company, the demand
for money to-day is active, and the rate for choice
paper is firm, at le per oent The charge in the
Stook Exchange for advances on English govern-
ment securities is le to 2 per cent.

Consols are quoted 93 to 1 for money and tie
account (March 5), and the Three per Centa. Re.
duped and New Three per Cents., 931 to 4.
The railway market is inactive, and, with the
exception of a reduction of 4 per cent, in London,
Chatham, and Dover, and Lancashire and York-
shire stocks—vis., to 181 to 1 and 1251 to 1264,
ex div., respectively, prices are unchanged. Lon-
don and North Western is at 116 to 1, ex div. ;
Great Western, 451 to 1 ; Midland, 1051 to 1064,

98 to 99 ; Berwick, 105/ to 1061; and North
British, 35 to 1.
Foreign stocks are rather dull, and a fresh de-
cline of 1 so 4 per cent. has taken place in some
of the speculative descriptions. Brazilian of 1865
are at 731 to 741; Chili= of 1867, 874 to 881;
Egyptian of 1864, 86 to 88 ; Italian of 1861,
45 to 4 ; Mexican, 151 to 1 ; Peruvian
of 1865, 751 to 76 ; Spanish New Three per Cents.,
351 to 36 ; Turkish of 1858, 62 to 1 ; ditto of
1862, 604 to 611 ; ditto of 1865, 321 to 3 ; Rus-
sian of 1866, 87 to 88 ; and the Viceroy of Egypt's
Loan, 734 to 74.

There is a moderate demand for Indian govern-
ment stocks. The Five per Cents. are at 112 to
; the Four, 102 to }, being } per cent. better ;
the Bonds, 355. to 38a. prem. ; and the Five per
Cent. Debentures, 105 to }. Bank Stock, 249 to
251, and Exchequer Bills, 10a. to 15s. prem.
The market for colonial lines is steady. East
Indian, 109} to 110 ; Great Indian Peninsula, 109
to } ; Grand Trunk of Canada, 16} to 3 ; and Great
Western, 16 to 1, being ss. higher.

In the market for American securities the 5-20
Bonds have declined per cent., viz., to 711
to 1, but Erie Railway shares are better, at
444 to 1. Illinois Central are steady, at 871 to 881.
Bank shares exhibit no movement worthy of
notiet London and Westminster, 674 to 684;
Union of London, 334 to 344; Anglo-Awitrian,
31 to 44 prem., being firm ; and Imperial Ottoman,

Financial shares are unchanged. General Credit,
21 to i die. ; Credit Fonder, 7} to 61 dis. ; In-
ternational Financial, 2} to li dis. ; and London,
25 to 23 dia.

Miscellaneous shares show dulness. National

An extraordinary meeting of the Atlantic Tele-
graph Company will be held on the 10th of March,
for the purpose of passing resolutions in favour of
the proposed increase of capital to the extent of
1,300,0001., bearing a preferential dividend of 10
per cent. per annum.
A petition for the winding up of the Suburban
Village and General Dwellings Company (Limited)
is to be heard before Vice-Chancellor Wood on the
7th of March.
The joint traffic return of the Caledonian and
North British railways shows this week a decrease
of 4041., compared with the corresponding period
of last year.

HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.

Consols are steady, at 93 to it for money and the
account. In the railway market the principal feature
is • fall of I per cent. in Caledonian stock, the
present price being 831 to I. The variations in
foreign bonds, compared with the prices above
given, comprise a rise of I per oent. in Turkish of
1865, and a reduction of i in Spanish New Three
per Cents.
The 4th of the month is drawing near; money
is being collected by some of the bankers, in
preparation for the dividends which are pay-
able early next week on several of the prin-
cipal railway stocks ; we are now about to enter
the final month of the quarter when money usually
accumulates in the Bank, through the revenue pay-
ments ; and, in addition, there is a demand for
money in order to complete the payment to-day
on the Orel-Vitebsk Railway loan, which involves
a total sum of about 1,800,0001. This liability,
however, may be deferred, upon the oonditions
described in the prospectus, which involve a pay-
ment at the very moderate rate of only 3 per cent.
per annum for the accommodation.
. . .

It is understood that the Bank of England are
now prepared to make the usual quarterly ad-
vances on stock and approved bills.
About 11,000 sovereigns were withdrawn from
the Bank yesterday for Alexandria.

The Great Western Railway traffic return shows
this week an increase of 5911. over the correspond-
ing' period of last year ; the London and South
Western, an increase of 1871. ; the London,
Chatham, and Dover, including the Metropolitan
Extension and branches, an increase of 8861. ; the
Metropolitan Extension separately, an increase of
346/. ; the Lancashire and Yorkshire, an increase of
2,7154. ; the North Eastern, an increase of 2381. ;
and the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, a
decrease of 1,9271.
