MONEY MARKET

AND

COMMCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The settlement of the fortnightly account in
foreign bonds and railway shares is influencing to
a slight extent the inquiry for accommodation in
the money market. There prevails, however, a very
satisfactory tone, and as the demand continues mo-
derate, a higher quotation for the most approved
abort dated paper than 6a per cent. is not expected.
A further sum of £32,000 in gold was taken
into the Bank nn Saturday.
By the present West Icdian mail Messrs. Baring
Brothers, agents in Ventzuela, advise that they
have received 29,986,91 dole. from the Custom-house
of L, Guayre, and 1,022,66 dole, from that ot
Puerto Cabello, being 55 per cent. of the Customs
duties for two weeks, for the credit of the Vene-
zuelan dividends.

Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co. have also an-
nounced the receipt, by the present mail, of
29,148 dole. on account of the Mexican dividends.
The Italian Land Company has been brought
forward under the auspices of the International
Financial Society and the Anglo-Italian Bank. The
capital required is £1,500,000 in shares of £5O
each, and the objects are the acquisition of crown
lands, reselling them, and making advances to
owners. The climate and soil of Italy are well
adapted for the cultivation of many tropical pro
ducts, such as cotton, tobacco, silk, &c., and the
directors, by enabling proprietors to drain their
lands, and advancing money for the purchase of
machinery, &c., believe that large profits will re-
sult from the judicious employment of their effects.
The direction is vary influential, as it comprises a
number of gentlemen connected with the Govern-
ment, including Sir James Hudson, Baron Ricasoli,
are.

The accounts from the various manufacturing dis-
tricts during the past week state that business in
some respects has been rather less active. At Man-
chester, prices of both cloths and yarns have
slightly given way, while in the woollen districts
of Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield a fair amount
of business has been transacted, chiefly in Austrian
fabrics, at full rates. At Leicester and Nottingham
there has been no particular change, while in the
hardware districts of Birmingham, Sheffield, and
Wolverhampton the late advices from America have
in some measure tended to retard operations for
those markets ; for the home trade, however, there
has been a fair inquiry.

telegram, the Three per Cent. Renter were 66f. 65c.

In the English Stock Market there has been very
little business transacted, owing to the settlement

attention of the members. The Funds are conse-
