CONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The transactions reported in the general discount
market indicate an active inquiry, and as it is in-
ferred that the introduction of new foreign schemes
Will have the effect of drawing money out of the
country, and that the quotations are likely to tend
upwards, 4 per cent. is now required in Lombard-
Street and elsewhere for the negotiation of three
Months' paper.

The rumours recently circulated about an over-
Issue of Turkish Consolide are false, the Ottoman
Government having published a list of the whole
amount, together with the numbers.
In the Foreign Exchanges, yesterday afternoon,
there was no alteration of importance.
The ratification having been received, the Confe-
derate 7 per Cent. Cotton Loan of £3,000,000 will
be brought out to morrow by Messre. Er,anger at
Paris and Frankfort, J. H. Schroder and Co. in
London and Amsterdam, and Fraser, Trenholm, and
Co. at Liverpool. The cotton hypothecated as secu-
rity is to be delivered to the holder of each bond, at
his option, at the rate of Std. per pound free of ex-
pense, at the Southern shipping ports either imme-
diately or within six months after the ratification of
peace. The price at which the bonds are to be
issued is 90 with dividends in sterling and sinking
fund for redemption at par in 20 years.

Two O'CLOCK.

At Paris, this day, according to Mr. Reuter's
telegram, the 3 per Cent. French Rentes were

the market for the English Funds, the limited
transactions entered into having taken place at
previous quotations. Consols are 92k for transfer,
and about 921 I for the account. The new loans
now before the public attract almost exclusive at-
tention, and this department of the house is very
much neglected. The New Threes and Reduced

90
the 5k per Cents., 1121; and Exchequer
r
