MONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, Two o'CLocK.

The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday was
rather dull, although a fair business was
done. Prices of all kinds were barely main-
tained, and the transactions were 6,000 bales,
including 500 Pernam and Maranham, 6d. to
61d. ; 70 Bahia, 61 to 61d. ; 100 Egyptian, 51d.
to 71d. ; 1,000 Surat, 31d. to 41d. ; and 60 Sea
Islands, lOid. to ls. 81 per lb. In the Railway
Share Market there was exceedingly little doing,
and the few sales that took place were at lower
prices.

Accounts from France announce that the prices
of sugar and coffee in the seaport town markets is
rising considerably in consequence of the large
purchases effeoted on English account, and that spe-
culation goes on with great vivacity. In Paris the
retail price of loaf sugar has risen from 35
to 40 centimes per kilogramme, which has
caused much sensation amongst the middle
classes, who are large consumers of that article, as
it is a second rise within the year. The influx of
British gold, in payment for those commodities ex-
ported here, has aided to the easiness of the Money
Market. Capitalists are making large purchases
in the French Funds, which has given an impetus to
business on the Bourse, and caused them to rise—
the 3 per Cents. for money ruling at 10 centimes
higher than the closing prices of Saturday, and
45c. in dealings for the close of the month.

The cultivation of tobacco in Algeria has in-
creased so much, and the imports from that colony
into France have become so considerable that it has
affected the interests of those departments in the
parent country which fproduce that article, and
caused the Government to limit its importation to
4 millions of kilogrammes.

Accounts from Holland and Belgium announce
that there is a general rise in the prices of sugar
and coffee in the principal markets, and large pur-
chases have been made on account of British
traders. At Antwerp large stocks have been sold
at an advance of 10 per cent. on former prices.
Letters from Birmingham, in reference to the
iron trade, mention thatthe misunderstanding be.
tween some of the masters and men has terminated,
and that the latter have returned to their employ-
ment at their former wages. Without the pres,
sure of any activity there is still a sufficient num-
ber of orders to keep the works in steady opera-
tion, and the market, consequently, rules firm at
previous quotations. Notwithstanding this, some
further suspension has occurred however, but the
liabilities are not of a very important amount.
The market for English Securities has presented
a buoyant appearance to-day, and the advanced
rates of yesterday afternoon have been exceeded.
The continuance of extensive purchases, both for
investment and on speculation, together with the
relief afforded to the Money Market by the liqui-
dation of the instalments due this day on the Con-
sols Loan, is the cause of the upward tendency.
Consols for money opened about 88k to 88i, and are
now 88k to 88i. The account values have been as
high as 88 g to 88 b which prices have been maintained.
Exchequer Bills are 103. to 7s. discount. The New
3 per Cents. are 871 to 87k, and the Reduced 87 to
87i. Bauk Stock is 209.

Foreign securities are exceedingly quiet, the'only
transactions having been in Spanish Deferred Stock
at 38i, Turkish 6 per Cent. at 80 to 80k, and in
the New Scrip at 31 to 3g, which, in the two last
named, is a decided improvement.
_ _

The following are the nominal prices of foreign
stocks : Grenada Deferred Bonds, si to 7 ;
Mexican, 19k ; Peruvian, 74 to 76 ; ditto Three
per Cents., 52 to 54; Portuguese Four per Cents.,
43 to 45 ; Russian Five per Cents., 94 to 96 ;
ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 85 to 88; Spanish
New Deferred, 19k 20 ; ditto Three per Cents., 38i ;
ditto Certificates, 4j to 4i ; ditto Passive, 61.
The Railway Shares have all improved, but
there is little activity in the market, although in
one or two cases it is as much as to per cent.
The Foreign Lines are better also, but rule quiet.
There have been bargains in East India Guaran-
teed at steady prices.
London Joint-Stock Bank Shares are 10s. higher.
General Screw Steam are rather fiat.
