tIOMMIROILL INTELLIGENCEI

CITY, TwELVt O'CLOCK.
I The demand for discount acc:anmodation con..
tinues active, and the rates remain very firm. The
active inquiry for money let'ely experienced has
somewhat trenched upon tte floating capital in the
open market, and the supply is becoming daily
more limited. The orokers are therefore charging
6 per cent. far the best three months paper, and
will only negotiate business at a fraction lower for
short date'd bankers' acceptances. Recently there
has bean withdrawn a large amount of gold for
Aley.andria, and it is very generally believed that
krther heavy sums will be dispatched to the same
destination in the course of another day or two.
Should this prove to be the case, and there is every
reason to believe it will, the effect it will have upon
the future course of the money market will not be
favourable.

At the Bank yesterday about 29,000 sovereigns
Were withdrawn for Alexandria.

The Committee of the Stock Exchange have ap.
pointed Thursday next a special settling day in the
Scrip of the United Danubian Principalities Loan
of £916,000, which is to be marked on the official
lists, £l5 paid and fully subscribed.

An order was made on Saturday last by the
Master of the Roils to wind up the British Copper
Company, Limited, under the supervision of the
Court of Chancery. Mr. H. Threlkeld Edwards,
of the firm of Cash and Edwards, the accountants,
Was appointed liquidator.

Doting the last few days there has been less
activity in the Markets for Foreign and Colonial
Produce. Sugars, however, have maintained full
rates ; coffee, cocoa, and rice have been dealt in to
an average extent at former prices, while tallow has
been in moderate request at fully late quotations,
for both present and forward delivery.
At a special meeting to-day of the shareholders
of the London and Colonial Bank, the agreement
made with the International Bank was confirmed,

Two O'CLOCK.

At Paris, this day, according to Mr. Renter's
Telegram, the 3 per cent. French Rentes were
65f. 40c. Inanimate.

Dealings in stocks and shares continue very
limited, and quotations necessarily tend down-
Wards. In the English market the business nego-
tiated has been very limited, and the Funds show
a fractional decline. Consols for money are 891 1,
and for the account 89/. The New Threes and Re-
duced Annuities are 881 1 ; March Exchequer Bills,
63 to Is die. ; India 5 per Cents, 1021 103; and the
Bonds, 3s 8s prem.
In the Foreign Market there has been rather less
firmness, with very little business. Turkish 6 per
Cents,, 1862, are 72 / ; ditto Consolides, 471 1;
Mexican, 29k ; do. New, 271 1 ; Greek, 23 ;
Spanish Passive, 311 ; do. Certificates, 131 14 ;
the Confederate
,Loan, 61 63; the Egyptian, to 1
preen ; the Danubian, 1 to -1 prem; and the Monte•
Videan, Ito 1 prem.
In the Railway Share Market there has been
very little animation, and in several instances
prices have given way. South Eastern have de-
clined 10s.; and Great Western, Brighton,
North Western, North Eastern (Berwick), and
Great Eastern, each ss.

The Foreign and Colonial lines remain without
any material alteration.

Bank and Miscellaneous Shares continue in very
bloderate request. London and County have de-
tiined to 801 ; Alliance Bank to 361 I; and Na•
tional Discount Company to 16.
