MONEY JIIABXI37-7111,5 OA

Two (lawn.
The funds to-day, though quiet, have been very
firm, at an advance of I per cent. upon the 4 o'clock
quotations of yesterday. In this department of the
Stock Exchange attention is chiefly directed to

the monthly settlement. The share markets
exhibit a farther and almost general advance.

English, French, Lombardo-Venetian, Indian, Cana-
dian, Brazilian, and Belgian railway shares are all
more or less in demand. In fad, the tandemoy
throughout the Stock Exchange is more favourable

than for several week.; past. I
The anal telegrams from the Paris Bonne of this
day have not yet come to hand.
Consols are steady, at 96 to for money and to-
morrow's settlement, and 961 to for the 7th of
_ _ _

April. The Three per Cenis. Reduced have been
dealt in et 981 to 1; the New Three per Cents., at
961 to 1; India Stook, at 220; Indian Four per
Cent. Debentures, at 99; and Exchequer Bills
(June), at 38s. to 89.. prem.
The scrip of the Austrian Loan is quoted * die. to
Ipar.
The foreign stock market is likewise buoyant. In
Dearly all instances improved quotations had been
established. The rise in Turkish stocks amounts
to Ito 1 per cent ; the Six per Cents. of 1854
being quoted 93 to 1; and the New Loan 791 to
80, ex div. Sardinian stock presents a moo-
very, being marked 82 and 811. Chilian
scrip has been dealt in at 1,2, and 11
dia. The Turkish Guaranteed Four per Cents., as
well as Dutch and Spanish stocks, are in increased
demand. Sales are recorded as follows :
Brazilian Old Five per Cents., 1011; ditto,
Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1858, 941,
94, 941; Buenos Ayres Deferred Bonds,
181; Chilian Foar-and-a-Half per Cents., 1868
(scrip), 1,2, If dia.; Dutch Two-and-
a-Half per Cents., 641 (exchange 129.);
ditto, Four per Cent. Certificates, 1001, 101 ;

Pe-
ruvien Four-and-a-Half per Cents. for ac-
count, 92 ez div.; ditto Three per Cents.,

anteed Foqr per Cents., for account, 1031 to 1031;
Venezuela Deferred Two per Cents., 171.
The stock markets are still powerfully affected
by the pacific assurances put forward in the official
organ of the French government. Financial pros-
pects, provided pests be preserved, being extrsordi-
- eerily brilliant, it is obvious that the weight which
has hang upon the markets throughout Europe since
the commencement of the year has been solely nom-

sioned by the attitude of France on the Italian gm-
tion. An instantaneous and immense effect is con-

moseutly produced by each signal, whether of de-
premien or elation, transmitted from Pori., where
the key of the political situation is held. The stook
markets are the more susceptible of favourable ins-
premion because, as we have repeatedly pointed out,
the public, who at present find little eligible
employment for their money, have, during the
Let two months, steadily absorbed the stock sold by
speculators. In addition, numerous unprotected
aerations for the fall have been entered into ; and
%pea any favourable feature there is a rush of
spasubsters auxions to close their accounts.
The tiedied effect produced in speculative quarters
by the Few& Emperor's new manifesto cannot,
however, be justly regarded as • measure of the
hapreseion in general commercial circles. The mer-
motile community cannot calmly address themselves
to business upon the faith of one pacific assurance,
whilst all the sets of the French government still
pint to war, or, at least, to the prolonged dis-
turbance of public tranquillity. Something more
tangible than mere reassuring professions is impera-
tively required; for, moth to say, there has long
bean little faith in the truthfulness of the communi.
'ethos addressed by the French government to the
world; and the notorious falsehood of several of the
emotions contained in the latest official document has
absolutely shocked the public mind. A general
hope prevails that the recent manifestations betoken
the commencement of the Emperor Napoleon'. retreat
from en aggressive position which he finds untenable
in fees of the condemnation of Europe, but more
especially of the expressed aversion of his own
people to war, and of the hostile attitude of Ger-
many. Confidence, however, is nowhere felt; for,
apart from the encouragement which Austria may
derive from the hesitation of her enemy, and which
may stimulate her to maintain en unyielding atti-
tude—a contingency which, by leaving the crying
oppression of Italy unrelieved, would keep up •
standing menace in the midst of Europe—the fear
remains that the restless and unscrupulous policy of
France may any day inaugurate a fresh and equally
perilous dictation.
In all the continental markets the article in the
Mondeur has occasioned a great rise. The rebound
in Austrian securities is in proportion to the late
severe depression.
The discount market yesterday was easy, first clue
bills being readily taken at 21 to 21 per vent. At
the Bank the applications were moderate.
About half of the 148,4001. in Australian gold by
the Red Jacket was yesterday taken for the Continent,
in addition to the foreign gold coin by the Brazilian
mail steamer Tamar. The limited sum in sovereigns
by the latter vessel will go to the Bank.
Tits monthly return of the Bank of France will be
published on Friday next.
The bill empowering the Secretary of State for
India to rain money in the United Kingdom for the
service of the Indian government, and on the credit
of Indian renames, has been printed. It provides
that the money may be raised in funds under the
hands and seal of dine members of the Council of
India, countersigned by the Secretary of State.
When the money is not borrowed in bonds, deben-
tures may be issued, to be paid off at par at a time
mentioned in the debenture, the interest meanwhile
to be paid half-yearly. Returns of all sums raised
in loan or otherwise under the provisions of this act
are to be annually presented to parliament.
A telegram from Bt. Petersburg quotes the ex-
change on London at 36d.
The wheat market yesterday was heavy, sad a
reduction of ls. to 2s. per quarter from the previous
Monday's rates was submitted to by sellers.

government maturities to-day (Tuesday), viz. r
Unk Stock, Three per Cents. Reduesd,
Annuities (Jan., 1860), Annuities (Oct., 18130),EAM

Great Ship and London District Telegraph Com-
panies into the official lilt.
The Consolidated Preferential Four per Cent. Stook
of the North Bascom Railway Compaq has been
ordered to be quoted in the Stock list.
As the conversion of the various preferential stocks
of the company makes progress the transaction in
this new security will probably hereafter become
more important.
The shares of the London and Blackwell Railway
Compaay are now quoted as " stock."
It appears that the Tamar has brought from
Buenos Ayres, in addition to the 10,0001. remitted
by the previous mail, a farther sum of 6,0001., to be

applied to the purchue and cancelment of Buenos
Ayres Deferred Bonds. These remittances are, of
course, in addition to those required to meet the
accruing dividends. It is scarcely necessary to
remark that the conduct of the government
of that Republic is viewed with lively satis-
faction by the bondholders, and ell the more
so from the contrast which it presents with that of
so many other South American States,
The Brighton Railway traffic return shows this
week an increase of 4,2041.
