MONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

A moderate amount of business is reported in
discount circles at the new rate of 9 per cent., and
capitalists out of doors are not at all anxious to
engage in extensive operations even at this elevated
figure. At the same time the mercantile public are
loth to pay so much for the temporary use of
money, and consequently limit their discount en•
gagements es far as practicable. Opinion seems
divided as to whether the measure now adopted
will initiate a return to what easy bo considered an
average quotation, many inclining to the belief
that a still higher point will yet be attained.
The return issued last evening. by the Bank of
England authoiities shows to what pressure the
establishment has been subjected, and how neces.
sary was the measure adopted yesterday by the
directors. While, however, the bullion has been
diminished, it is satisfactory to notice that it has
been withdrawn for circulation throughout the
United Kingdom, and that very little has been
taken for exportation. Subjoined are the parti.

The Bank of France return for the past week
may be considered of a favourable character. The
bullion shows an increase of £66,700, and the
Treasury balances of £106,700. An unsatisfactory
change is the addition of £BO,OOO to the discounts,
bat a falling off has occurred in the advances to the
extent of £40,000, and the notes in circulation
have been lessened by £620,000, and the current
accounts by £186,700.

Two O'CLOCK.
The French Routes were this morning, according
to Mr, Reuter's telegram, 66f. 67c.
The Stock Exchange Markets to-day have pre.
sented a very inactive appearance, and quotations
generally remain without much alteration. In fact,
monetary affairs absorb the principal attention,
and while so much uncertainty exists, operators
seem afraid to enter into heavy engagements. The
English Funds have continued at their former
values, and Consols are 87 for money, and 87:
for the account. The New Threes and Reduced
Annuities are 851 f- ; India 5 per Cents., 103 j, 104,
and Enfaced 5i per Cents, 110.
In the Foreign Market there is very little business,
and prices continue to drop. Turkish 6 per Cents.,
1862, are 70 s ; ditto Consolides, 50 ; Mexican,
274 ; do. New, 25 1-; Greek, 23: ; Spanish
Passive, 30: d ; do. Certificates, 13: d ; Portuguese,
47 s ; Italian, 661 1; and the Confederate Loan,
791 801.
In the Railway Share Market the operations
have been limited, and prices have generally exhi-
bited further depression. South Eastern have
receded £1 10s ; Great Eastern, and Lancashire and
Yorkshire, each £1 ; Brighton, North Western, and
Midland, each 108 ; and Manchester, Sheffield, and
Lincoln, ss.
The Foreign and Colonial lines remain without
change of importance.

Bank and Miscellaneous Shares are dull, but
generally sustain former prices,

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MANSION-HOUSE.

A youth named Brown, a clerk in an office in Mincing-
lane, was placed at the bar charged with being concerned
with another youth, now under sentence of seven years'
penal servitude for forging and uttering a cheque for £350,
with intent to defraud the City Bank.
From the evidence it appeared that Harding, who was a
clerk to Mr Watts, a metal broker in St. Helen's, Bishops-
gate, was, at the June sessions of the Central Criminal
Court, convicted of forging and uttering the cheque for
£350. The cheque wus presented by a commissionaire,
but it was discovered to bo a forgery, and in consequence
of the statement made by the presentee of the cheque
Harding was taken into custody and convicted. Since he
had bees convicted he had made a communication to Mr
Mullins, the solicitor to the Bankers' Protection Society,
which implicated the prisoner Brown, and accordingly last
night he was apprehended on a warrant issued by the
bankers. It transpired during the present examination that
the civvies had been stolen by Harding from the cheque-
book of his mater, and that they had afterwards been given
to Brown, as Mr Watts had received from Brown's tether
several other blank cheques, forming part of the number
stolen, one of which had been filled up for £4OO, but not
presented. On the officer going to Brown's residence last
night, the former said he knew all about the forgeries, but
he denied positively that he was to have any of the money.
Application was made to admit the prisoner to bail, but
The Lord Mayor refused to accede to the request, and he
remanded the prisoner for a week,
