FRIDAY EVRNIZIO.

The funds to-day were rather dull one period
of the day a decline of per cent. was quoted, but
the closing quotations were the same as those of
yesterday, notwithstanding a renewal of the pres-
Pare for money in the Stock Exchange. This ad-
verse influence was counteracted by an arrival of
gold from Australia, coupled with the anticipation
of a favourable Bank return, and with the receipt of
unproved prices from the ?iris Bonne. Engin&

railway stocks were a little flatter, the present dal-
ness of business leading some of the speculative
holders to close their accounts in anticipation of the
approaching settlement.
In the Stock Exchange to-day the demand for
money wu active, and during the greater part of
the day 7 per cent. was freely paid for loans ow
_ _ _ . .

government securities. The demand is believed to
have been increased by the preparations which are

now being made to remit to the Bank of France a
portion of the gold brought by the Anglesea. In
the discount market the general demand was rather
more active, and former rates are fully maintained.
Consols for the 7th May opened and closed at
yeaterday's final quotation of 931 to z. For money
the last price was 931. The Acta business report
is as follows :—Three per Cent- Console, for money,
931, 93, 931; ditto, for account, 7th May, 931.
Three per Cents. Reduced, 911, 92, 911, 911, 91 f.
New Three per Cents., 921, 911. Long Annuities,
expiring in Jan., 1860, 2 7-16. Thirty Years
Annuities, April, 1885, 18, 17 15-16. Bank Stock,
213, 215. India Stock, 220. Three-and-a-Half per
Cent. Exchequer Bonds, falling payable in 1859,
98/, 981. India Bonds, 3s. dis.
Exchequer Bills maintain their late improvement,
the March issue being quoted 2s. die, to 2s. prem.,
and the June, 4s. to Is. dia. Exchequer Bonds stand
at 981 to 1.
The foreign stock market was very dull. Turkish
Bonds declined a per cent., the Six per Cents, being
last quoted 93; to 941 ex dir., and the Guaranteed
Four per Cents., 100 to 1. Other descriptions were
nominally quoted as before.

Copper • There are seven' pumas of foreign pressing on the
market for sale, which canoes flatness, but prices generally
are firmly supported. Iron Is in fair demand and without
much activity, yet the works continue to be fairly supplied
with orders. There has been a little speculative movement
in Scotch pigs, and prices have advanood about 2a. per tan
hut as the make is larger than even the advance here Ls
hard) maintained, and the market is again weaker. 5464
firm in price, and there is a moderate business doing.
Tin The English smelters have put down the price at 4s.
per cwt., which has caused a little more demand, and a tar
business is doing at the quotations. Other metals are with-
out change.
