LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE.

LONDON, Thursday Evening.
- The Market for English Stocks to-day has been,
wanting ,bOth in firmness and animation; and
consequent on this heaviness, prices have not been
quite so well supported. ConsOls opened at 1 -
decline from the final. quotations of last night,'
upon which no recovery has occurred; and they
are now marked at 961 1 for money and the ac-
• count. Bank Stock realised 223,'222, and 2211 ;
Reduced Three per Cents., 951 ; India Stock,
222) Ditto 'Debentures, 97 961 ; the Bonds, 2s.
and 4s. pm. ; and Exchequer Bills, 28s. and 31s.
pm. for all.
In English Railway Stocks a moderate'amount
of business was done. and
.quotations appear to
be fairly sustained at about those current, yester-
day. Bristol and Exeter are marked 1 per cent.
higher—. .Berwicks, with South-Easterns, have
improved about per cent.
The Market for Foreign Securities was not
active, but the business done, though limited in
extent, was such as on the whole to support
current values. Spanish exhibit a rise of 1 per
eent, ; Venezuela have improved .1 per cent.
Brazilian and Mexican show firmness, but
Sardinian Fives are + per cent, lower ; Original
Turkigh'haVe been'done at 801 and 79 ; 'and the
New Sixes -at 69 ; New Indian Loan is quoted
1031 • • -

The French Rentes do not appear to have
materially varied, the quotation at ten minutes
past twelve being Of. 75c., but with very little
doing.

, !rxations at the Bank to-day. Yesterday being

hooks of the reduced 3 per cents. Although there was
some little activity in the discount market, the quantity-of
money in Stock'F,xchanme seemed to increase, and loans
were offered at 1 per emit.- At the Bank, to-day, there
was a fair demand for discount. In the open market
