The Money Market—As the season draws to a 'close
money is the bazaar appears rather less•searce. In
' 'European quarters it continues, as it has done all the
year,,most abundant. The share and Government secu-
rity markets are much the same as when we list wrote,
and current quotations may be given as follows:
Transfer, Loan at 113

Bank of Bombay Shares
.at 15 per cent. prem.
Bank of Madras Shares at 15 per cent. prem.
Agra Bank Shares :at 10 per cent. prem.
Commercial Bank Shares ;.. at par.
The Shares of the Bank of Madras seem to be about
10 per cent. lower since the Governor in Council of the
benighted Presidency wrote that mischievous minute on
its affaira, and'recomnaended to the Court of Directors
the withdrawal of its charter. It is truly lamentable to
think that the collective wisdom of the Government of a
vast Presidency should be so destitute of something
useful to employ themselves with that they are reduced
to writing minutes on banking, the only visible effect
of which is depreciation the property of t.he share-
holders by 10 per cent. •
Tonnage—l-The arrivals have been heavy of late, in.
consequence of which the rates for Liverpool have de-
clined to 31.25. 6d. to 31.55.; for London, 31.5 x.; and for
Greenock, 31.75. 6d. To China the rate has declined to

(From the Calcutta Overland Price Currant, May IL)
,The short period of time which has again intervened
b4tween the dispatch of the last and the present mails,
seapted with an unusually dull market, has 'limited the
amount of transactions which we • have to record, and
our remafks thereon must, consequently, be unavoidably
brief
Our export market has remained inanimate and dull,
and the business done has generally been on a restricted
scale. losngar the transactions have been very mode-
rate, with drooping prices; which, nevertheless, still ex-
ceed those of the London market,
,as quoted in our last
advices. Raw silk has only been in moderate demand.
Silk piece goods have been quiet, and on the descending
scale. Saltpetre has been in good inquiry, although the
amount of business recorded has not been great. The
exports of rice are proceeding on, a fair scale to Great
Britain and the Mauritius. Lac dye and shellac are,
also, in fair inquiry. The market for safflower is ani-
mated. Rides still in very moderate request. Oil seeds
continue to attract attention. • Jute is comparatively
our import market, has 'undergone no improvement,
and still remains deprepsed. • The 'accounts:from the
upper provinces aro of a discouraging taint, and the
business in progress here is chiefly intended for lotal re-
quirements. The demand has .been. principally directed
to 39 and 40-inch gray shirtings and gray jationets, and
also to the low and medium qualities of white jaoonets.
for all of which a moderate demand exists. With the
exception of diagonal lappets and Japan spots, for 'which
some little inquiry exists, all .sorts of Glasgow fabrics
are neglected. Mule twist has been selling more freely,
but at unimproved prices. The sales of red twist have
been. wholly confined to Germans, no British yarn
having been sold for some time past. Metals are look-
ing up, and in a good position. Iron has advanced 1 to
2 unuas per.md.
.The flemand for , bills has been very small, and the
rate of exchange has,. consequently, been tending up-
war& at going to press we could scarcely call it fixed
for the mail, but credit,bills could be got at 25., and do-
cuments to higher.
NOalteration worth mentioning has occurred in the
rates of freight, which, realain much about our last
quotations. ,
The money market is very plentifully supplied. Loans
are offered at from 4 to 5 per cent. on good securities,
and the rate of interest is likely to go lower, as capita-
listkcannoi find full employment for their funds. Bank
of Bengal Shaies have realized 6,700 each, and all good
joiat-stock shares are term. • •
r REIOTItS.

Very little alteration Ins occurred in the rates of
