Thera is an unusually a ctiveTWELVE
demand forCLOCK money
in the discount market to-day, and the Bank mini--
mum of 6 per cent. is the lowest rate out of doors.
In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon

Since Monday last the imports of specie have
amounted to £142,729, and the exports to £862,353.
The Industrial Company of Central Italy requires
a capital of £250,000 in 25,000 shares of £lO
each, of which 16,000 have been already placed.
The object is to provide the requisite means for
developing industrial undertakings of undeniable
commercial value in the locality embodied in tha
title, and operations are to be commenced by the
development of extensive deposits of native sulphur,
situate ill the Romagna, at present worked with
considerable profit. The property is near the cele-
brated mines of the Bolognese Company, and con-
tiguous to the Central Italian Railway, and within
a few miles of good seaports. Guided by the
advice of practical judges the directors have pro-
visionally agreed to pay £89,000 for the concessions,
together with all rights and privileges and plant.
Not more than £5 per share will be called up till
other works are entered upon, and the vendors
show their confidence in the scheme by taking
nearly one..half their purchase-money in shares,
which are not to receive interest or dividend until
10 per cent. per annum has been paid upon the capi+
tal employed.

pointed Tuesday, the 26th of July, a special settling
day in the London, Birmingham, and South Staf-
fordshire Bank (new shares), not to be officially
