ONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market continues to be plentifully
supplied with capital, and discounters are evincing
more desire to obtain business at current rates.
The quotations for first.class securities show a still
further downward tendency, and transactions have
been reported this morning at per cent. for bills
having only a week to run, while three months'
paper has been freely taken at 8! I per cent.
The amount of gold taken to the Bank of England
yesterday afternoon represented £5,000.
There was no material alteration in the foreign
exchanges yesterday afternoon.
The failure has been reported of Messrs Da "Wolff,
Schack, and Co., merchants, of Idol-lane. The
liabilities are not supposed to be large.
The bil!s of Mr T. W. Bradley, wine merchant,
of Fenchurch-street, have also been returned. The
debts are believed to be considerable.

pressed to-day, but prices have not receded any
further. Last evening continental advices induced
a reaction, and although nothing has since occurred

rule steady. Consols for money are 89,1; I„ and for
the account 89 Z. The New 1 hrees and Reduced

bonus of £2 per share from the insurance fund,
free of income tax.

been a rise in Spanish Passive and Certificates;

brokers have been principally occupied with the
arrangements for the settlement, and prises in some
instances have shown less firmness. Caledonian

clined 5a., and Midland 155.; while North Western
have improved £l.
The Foreign and Colonial undertakings have
continn:d inactive without material change in
prices.

''ke short exchange on London is 13.51 per ..£1
Sta.
jid gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
cent, 4.101 q ih Lyndon, than in, iiikElbltrg.
