MONEY MARKET

U

CO AIT.ISIICIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
A decidedly easier feeling is apparent in the
Money Market this morning, there being less de
mend for money with a larger supply. The rate
for first-class bills is 5; per cent., and exceptional
transactions have been recorded at even a traction
below that quotation.

There were no bullion operations at the Bank
yesterday.

ne Olympus has arrived from Now York with
£37,640.

The subscrip,ion-list of the Ebbw Vale Com-
pany will close on Monday, the 11th inst., for
London, and Wednesday, the 13th inst., for the
Country.

The Committee of the Stock Exchange have ep.
pointed Friday, the Sth of July, a special settling
day in the Bank of New South Wales new shares
and the lonian Bank new shares, bath to be marked
in the official lists.

An extraordinary meeting of Shareholders of the
London Bank of Scotland was held to-day for the
purposeof considering the terms of agreement made
with the Mercantile and Exchange Bank, with a
view to the amalgamation of the two institutions.
Mr, W. W. Cargi:l occupied the chair, and, in pro-
posing the resolution confirming the arrangement,
said that the Mercantile and Exchange Bank had
been started at an earlier date under more favour-
able circumstances, and possessed a capital of
£4,000,000 in shares of £5O each, of which £lO had
been paid up, while the London Bank of Scotland
had only a capital of £150,000 in shares of £5O
each, of which £l3 had been paid up. The
latter bank woald pay a premium on the amalga-
mation taking place, amounting to four yearn'
purchase of the profit made by the Mercantile and
Exchange B.ok, over and above that secured by
the London Bank of Scotland. The resolution was
unanimously agreed to.
During the last few days there has been very
little activity in the Foreign and Colonial Produce
Markets. Sugars have been dull, at slightly re-
duced rates. For coffee there has been a moderate
inquiry without material change as regards vatues,
while in rice, tea, fruit, and Spices there has been
little variation in the demand. The tallow market
has exhibited slight depression, and Coe quo►ations
for both present end forward delivery show a fur-
ther downward movement.

telegram, the Three;per Cent. Rentes were 66i. 15c.

The English Stock market continues quiet, but at
firm quotations. No one seems desirous to specu-
late till political eff.irs have assumed a more
settled condition. The Funds show no alte-
ration from the prices of y est erd Con-
sols being 90/ a for money and account.

firmer. Great Northern A Stock, and Manchester,
