MONEY MARKET.-THIS DAY.

Two o'Cloow.
The funds to-day are rather flatter, owing chiefly
to the announcement that the East India Company

are themselves despatching a large amount of silver
to India. Prices have declined about 1 per cent.
Business is limited throughout the Stock Exchange.
Consols are quiet, at 88; to for money, and
88; to 1 for the 10th of November. The Three per
Cents. Reduced arc marked 87; and 871 ; the New
Three per Cents., 871 and 881 ; Bank Stock, 210 ;
Exchequer Bills, 15s. to 10s. dis. ; and Exchequer
Bonds, 1859, at 97; and 971.
Turkish Six per Cents. remain steady at 87; to
88. In other foreign stocks there is no alteration of
striking importance. Sales are recorded as follows,
viz.:—Buenos Ayres Bonds, at 61 ; Dutch Four
per Cent. Certifs. at 97; and 97; ; Guatemala Five
per Cents. at 63 ; Mexican Bonds, for account, at
191; Russian Five per Cents. at 105 ; ditto, Four-
and-a-Half per Cents. at 97; Turkish Guaranteed
Four per Cents. at 98 and 971 ; Venezuela Active
Bonds, for account, at 29 ; ditto, Deferred, at 114.
We are enabled to state that the East India Com-
pany are about to make some large remittances of
silver to India. We know that they have already
effected insurances to the amount of at least 200,000/.
This fact is of great importance in several respects.
In the first place, the policy now inaugurated by the
East India Company will tend to aggravate the
drain of silver at a time when it has already acquired
very inconvenient proportions; for we must assume
that the remittances of the Company will lead to no
diminution in those on ordinary mercantile account.
Additional light is now thrown upon the policy of
the Court in recently announcing the important rise
of no leas than four per cent. in their rate of ex-
change on India. In acting thus, they evidently
wished to altogether deter applications to them
for their bills, payable on demand through the
Treasury in India.. But the most important feature
of the news above referred to is the evidence which
it affords of the poverty of the Exchequer in India.
To the unfavourable position of the Indian finances
we have frequently called attention, solely with a
view to prevent the public from being taken by sur-
prise by the announcement of a loan. Probably,
the authorities at home will be enabled to carry on
for some time longer, but the period is evidently
drawing near when the expenditure entailed by the
Indian revolt will exercise a more direct influence
upon the English market. The approaching despatch
of 200,0001., or • quarter of a million sterling in
silver, by the India House authorities to the relief
of the local government, will probably be only the
first of a series of calls upon this market.
We understand that the French Government have
decided upon rescinding the prohibition against the
exportation of corn and flour from France. To this
step they are impelled in consequence of strong re-
monstrances from the agricultural districts. By
depriving the produce of the country of its natural
outlet, the prices of grain and flour in France have
been artificially driven down to rates far below those
current in other foreign markets, including those of
England. Of coulee this boon to the community
has been purchased at the cost of severe depression
to the agricultural interest, who seem at length to
have succeeded in making their voice heard in the
Imperial Council Chamber. The rescinding of the
prohibition will be likely to precipitate the fall in
the English corn markets, which are already de-
pressed by the high rate of interest, coupled with
the accounts from America.

We have alluded lately to the withdrawal of so-
vereigns from the Bank on account of the Irish
banks. The Irish advice. mention a foolish run
upon the branches of some of these institutions.
The telegram in anticipation of the overland mail
may be dairy expected.
At Hamburg the rate of discount has declined
from 9 to 8f per cent.
The steamer Baron Osy, which arrived in the
Thames on Thursday from Antwerp, brought about
45,000!. in silver. _ _

•
On 'Change yesterday afternoon there was an in-
creased demand for bills on the Continent, principally,
it isbelieved, against the largesupplies of silver drawn
thence. The rates on Hamburg have declined, and
as regards Belgium and Holland the tendency was
leas favourable. The quotation for paper on St.
Petersburg is lower. The current rates are shown
below, viz.:
Amsterdam, three months, 11.191 to •, do., short, 11.16
to 16; Rottershat, three months, 11.161 to ; Antwerp,
three months, 26.621 to 6; Hamburg_ (warm banco),
three months, 13.10 to I ; Paris, short, 26.2.6 to 30; ditto,
three months, 2630 to 6; Fre.hfort-on-tho-Natne, three
months, 1191 to 1 ; Petersburg (pr rouble), three months,
36; Vienna (elf. 60.), three maths, 10.41 to 6; Trieste,
three months, 40.42 to 6; Madrid, three month; 481 to 1 ;
Cadiz, three months, 491 to 1; Leghorn, three months,
30.20 to 30 ; Genoa, three months, 25.76 to 80 ; Naples,
three months, 42 to /*, Palermo, three months, 1281 to
127 ; Messina, three months, 124 to 1271; Lisbon, 90
days, 621 to 1 ; Oporto, 90 days, 621 to B.
The steamer Armenian, with the London mail of

the —6th of July on boird, arrived at the Cape of
Good Hope on the 21st of August, from Dartmouth.
A telegram from St. Petersburg quotes the ex-
change on London as low as 36d. At this exchange
gold ought to flow freely to this side. The reason
why. it does not is to be found in the fact that the
precious metal commands 3t per cent. prem.
amongst the money changers. The Bank only
furnishes small amounts of gold to applicants.
A telegram, dated Revel, Oct. 22, received at
Lloyds' yesterday, mentions that the steamer Syden-
ham, from Hull to St. Petersburg, wu aground on
Nargo and leaky.
The corn market yesterday was heavy, and sales
of magnitude could not have been effected at a reduc-
tion of Is. to 2s.
_per quarter from last Monday's
rates for wheat. The number of grain-laden vessels
arrived at ports of cell since last Friday is 28.
Nearly all the country corn markets are reported
lower.
The North British Australasian Company being
now incorporated with limited liability under the
acts of 1836-67, new shares are to be issued. The
dividend of five per cent. declared at the last meet-
ing is advertised for payment.
The subjoined weekly summary of the produce
markets is from Messrs. W. J. and.H. Thompson :
The colonial markets continue depeemed, and holders of
produce having evinced a desire to realise, lower prices have
been established. For sugar there Is very little demand, and
the soles mode show a decline of Is. per evil. Sevnal par-
cels of coffee have been off red at auction, including soma
imported from Havre, and prices about 4s. below those of
last week have been accepted. Rice, which had partially
covered the fall of last week, his aim* receded about 6d., and
the demand is very limited. To elti et sales of saltpetre a de-
cline of 2s. to 3s. must be submit led to. large tales of spire
have been held, resulting in a fill of 2d. un middling and
low untmens, 2d. to 3d. upon mom end Id. per lb. upon
black and white pepper. The quarterly biles of cinnamon,
comprising 1,800 bales Ceylon, are to be held on Monday
next. For tea but little demand exists.
The return of the Bank of England for the week
ending Saturday, Oct. 17, compared with the pre-
vious return, shows the following results:
Circulation hens
Circulation active 20,183,245 Increase 193,136

e see in this return the effect of the payment of
the dividends. It will be remarked u an unfavour-
able feature for the money market that the stock of
" other " securities stands still at upwards of 201
millions sterling, notwithstanding tho large sums
falling repayable at the Bank in the dividend week.
The government seem ides held by the Bank have
also declined 306,066/.
The Admiralty invite tenders for the conveyance

of a lira ited quantity of stores from the Thames to

on the 27th instant for the conveyance of stores
