The alteration in the Bank rate of discount, by
44 further increase from 4 to 44 per cent., was made
board,
a longer sitting than usual of the weekly
ard, and hence could not be communicated in
lit.°llle of the first impressions of The Sun ; and
v'')ht as the money-market had been, the ad-
;l,4llce took most persons by surprise, even
i'ma bill brokers being unprepared for it, and be-
viving that it could be postponed for a time. This
it'elist was encouraged by the large sales of stock,
-1(1 to be for account of the Bank of England, and
therefore supposed to be made with the object of
tendering money scarcer in the general market,
44:1 at the same time placing increased means at the
4 i'Pesal of the directors. We have not the opportu-
4itY of knowingprecise]y w hat the demand foraccoul -
I;_qation has this week amounted to, although it
i:Undoukedly largo, but rumour affirms that the
411ilien at the Bank up to Saturday last had been
ittinished 800,0001., and that a further material
reduction has been going on this week. This much
1g
certain, that at present the discount brokers
are puzzled how to act. The change being
o"Mdenly made they have a large amount of bills
°II hand, which they did at 31 up to 4 per cent.
according to the date, and could not now get money
for under 4or 41.. They therefore naturally hesi-
rZte about assisting the upward movement, and
ove only increased by I per cent. their allowance
Money on "call." The general belief,
the other
is that they must add on
other and keep pace with the Bank, which
aY surprise them a second time, unless the specie
6is arrested by another jump to 5 per cent. It
day be remarked, however, incidentally, that we
ill likely to have an improvement this afternoon
iiLthe foreign exchanges, and a check to anything
I exaggerated grain specie.
t The English funds have been flat, as was to be
ticillected from the influence of dearer money, and
r"e have been some further sales for transfer,
ut the speculators appear notwithstanding to have
etlther more confidence, and to anticipate some im-
:vernent. Consols have been 90,1 to 8 for trans-
