COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Fully 6 per cent., the minimum of the Bank of
England, has baen required in the general discount
market to-day for negotiating the best short dated
Paper. The demand for monetary accommodation
continues very excessive, and bankers and brokers
are showing less disposition to offer any concession
Under the official rate.
Several unfavourable changes are exhibited in
the return from the Bank of England, completed to
Wednesday last. The distribution of the April
dividends has occasioned a reduction in the Govern-
ment deposits, and also in the other securities. The
bullion and reserve of notes have also been trench,q,
upon to a considerable extent. Sabjoined is our
'usual analysis :
