AND

COMM/3EOIAL INTELLIGENCE,

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

lEeepting that there appears to be a great deal
more capital afloat, and that the terms asked for
4ecornmodation show a tendency to greater ease,
the Money market presents no new festure of inte-
teat. The usual disbursements that have to be
41.oidated during the present season are alone the
e,i.nse of the largo number a applications that are
ueing daily made for .discount assistance. The
rates this morning in the open market are 61 7 per
ecnt.

About £64,000 in gold was taken into the Bank
Yesterday,
During the last few days business in the Foreign
and Colonial Produce Markets has continued rather
dull. Sugar has barely sustained former prices,
Tallow,
coffee, tea, and rice have been neglected.
lallow, however, has been in fair demand for both
Present and forward delivery at steady rates.

At Paris, this day, according to Mr. Reuter's
Telegram, the 3 per cent. French Rentes were
66f. 05c. Heavy—inanimate.
The English Stock Market continues very de.
Pressed, consequent on the small amount of busi-
4ss now entered into. The settlement in foreign
bends and railway shares occupies the principal
attention of operators, and there is a belief that
"ea after the arrangement of the account shall have
taken place, the public will be indisposed toenter
largely
into transactions till after the holidays.

In the Railway Share Market the dealings have

downward movement. Manchester, Sheffield, and
Lincoln have receded 15s. ; Midland and North

each ss.
The Foreign and Colonial undertakings remain
Without material change.
Per Bank and Miscellaneous Shares there is a
Very limited inquiry, and quotations generally are
a shade flatter. Alliance are dealt in at 37 1;
13ank of Australasia at 69 4 ; Mercantile Exchange
