MONEY MARKET

AND

OOMMXRCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The inquiry for money to-day in the discount
market has been rather extensive, but as the avail•
able bllances of bankers and others are abundant,
competition is excited, and the commercial public
are thus enabled to obtain accommodation on terms
per cent. below the minimum of the B ink of
England, The charge for the best paper has ranged
from 6,1 per cent. upwards.
About £35,000 in gold wai taken into the Bank
on Saturcay.

The Seine has arrived from the West Indies with
£224,161.

Business in the manufacturing districts during
the post week has presented indications of improve-
'tent. At Manchester prices for cotton yarn ware
firmer during the last few days, and the textile
fabrics of Leeds, Hwidenfield, Halifax, Bradford,
and Norwich were in good demand. At Sheffield,
however, the several bronchus of industry showed
Blight indications of dullness, but at Birmingham
larger orders were being received.

Two O'CLOCK.

There bas been a decline of 3-16 this morning in
the market for the English Funds. This down-
-ward movement has been accelerated by the un-
favourab►e feeling with which foreign politics are
now viewed. Consols are 90 4 for money, and 90i
for the account. The New Threes and Reduced
Annuities are 894 4; Exchequer Bills, ss. die.; and
India 5 per Cents, 1044 d.
The Foreign Market presents a dull appearance,
and quotations are very depressed. Turkish 6 per
Cents., 1862, are 714 4; do. Consolides, 481 ; Mexi-
can, 444 8; do. New Loan, 4 die. 4 prem ; Oreek,
244 A ; Spanish Passive, 324 4 ; do. Certificates,
104 ; Russian Scrip, 44 a prem.; Swedish 34
prem.; and the Confederate Loan, 62 64.
Business in the Railway Share Market has re=
mained very inactive, and few changes of import .
ance have taken place in values. North Western
have declined 55., while Midland have improved 6s.

The Foreign and Colonial undertakings remain
inactive, at about former rates.
For Bank and Miecillaneous Shares there is a
very limited haul ry, without any material altera-
tion to report in values. City Bank realise 135,
Imperial Ottoman in, I, London and Westminster
94i, Hudson Bay Comp-,ny 198,-and Chamounix
hotel Shares are quoted prom.

THE ROYAL ACADEMY EXHIBITION WILL BE
0 TENED IN THE EVENING, as of late years, at the end of
t: M eighth week of its continuance, on the 27th inst.

A PRETTY PLAIN HINT TO THE ROYAL
A .CADEMY.—The House of Commons will not allow
tito Natienal Gallery to be removed from Trafalgar. square
to tho site of Burlington House. Nor can we wonder at
tb .e resolution. Four years ago a vote of £17,000 was
te.ken on the understanding that the pictures were tore-
-1:n ain where they are, and such a vote can hardly be with •
(214 t its force in the minds of men who deliberately passed
It. There are, in our opinion, only two available sites in
4'e idon—South Kensington and Trafalgar square. A gal-
ler) - built in South Kensington might be made to unite all
tltt national treasures under one roof—the old masters and
the modern masters Nowhere else can this be done—for
Notwe of our best pictures of the English school have been
left
t o the public on the expressed condition that they are
to be exhibited there. A gallery in Trafalgar-square' has
greatthe advantage of a noble site and of a central posi-
tion.
Piccadilly, midway between the two, escapes the
:raction offered by each. The modern school could not
tie removed to it; and it would certainly be further from
the public and from students of Art. This vote puts an
end to the dream of the Academicians. What will they
ot!er next? They cannot long remain where they are—
for if the national pictures must be hung in Trafalgar-
Nuare, every inch of available space will be required for
that
Purpose. The Academy is rich; let it build e piece
for itself. It declines to become a national institution—
then let it have notice to retire from the occupancy of cur
114t1049,1 property.—ArAmetios,
