MONEY MARKET

AND

COXIIItItCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
There is still a good inquiry for accommodation
in the general money market, preparations still
being made for meeting the commercial bills due
to-morrow, the 4th. The rate for first class paper
is therefore maintained at 6 per cent., very few
exceptions being reported at 54 per cent.
A special general meeting of the Intercolonial
Royal Mail Steampacket Company was held to day.
The report recommended the creation of 37,500 new
£lO shares, and represented the affairs of the com-
pany to be in a most prosperous state.
The biddings for 40,00,000 rupees (£400,000) in
bills on India took place yesterday at the Bank of
England, and the following are the official particu-
lars :—The proportions allotted were, to Calcutta,
22,00,000 rupees ; to Bombay, 16,00,000 rupees ;
and to Madras, 20,00,000 rupees. The minimum
price was, as before, is 111 per rupee on Calcutta
and Mo,dras, and is 11id on Bombay. The appli-
cations within the limits amounted to 237 lees.
Tenders on Calcutta at is 111 d will receive about
11 per cent. ; on Madras at 2s about 44 per cent ;
and all above these prices in full.
The directors of the Credit Foncier have brought
forward anew companion institution to their own,
entitled the Credit Mobilier. The former company
is purely for making investments in landed secu-
rities, while the latter will be entirely devoted to
financial transactions, and will, therefore, co-operate
with other monetary and industrial undertakings,
negotiate Government and municipal loans, aid in
carrying out concessions, make advances to con-
tractors for English and foreign railways, and other
public works, and lend money on approved securi■
ties. The capital required is £1,000,000, but the
first is only to consist of half that amount in shares
of £5O each, which are now quoted 2, 3 premium,
The last week's railway receipts, ascertained np
to this day, are, in round figures, as under:-

These returns, compared with those of the same
period of last year, are, with a few exceptions, of a
favoarable character. On the Great Western there
is an increase of £2,217; North Western, £6,990;
Midland, .-C4,414 ; North Eastern, £3,273 ; Great
Northern, £3,384 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire,
£3,750 ; and Glasgow and South Western, £156.
The South Western, however, shows a decrease of
£9,42; Brighton, £1,715; South Eastern, £1,355;
and Great Western of Ireland, £1,663.

Two O'CLOCK.

At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to
Reuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes were 66f.
42c.—Flat.
The Stock Exchange Markets opened this morn-
ing with a very general appearance of depression,
and a few sales following, close upon each other
sent the English Funds downy per cent. Nothing
new of a political or monetary character has since
occurred to occasion the heaviness now perceptible,
but speculators nevertheless, seem to possess but
little confidence in the ability of the present English
Government to bring about a successful issue of
the Dano German difficulty. Consols are 91 for
money, and 91 1 for the account. The New Threes
and Reduced Annuities are 891 ; Exchequer
Bills, ss. die. to par ; and India 5 per Cents., 104 i 1,
Foreign Stocks have not varied to any material
extent, and business has been quite. Turkish 6 per
Cents., 1862, are 69; 1 ; do. Consolides, 50} I ;
Mexican, 431 I ; Spanish Passive, 357-, d ; do. Cer-
tificates, 14 ; Greek, 221 23 ; Portuguese, 481 e ;
886 89; and Italian, 661
In the Railway Share Market a heavy tone has
prevailed, prices generally showing a downward
movement. North- Western, Metropolitan, and
Midland have declined 10s., and Great Northern,
Great Western, and London and Blackwall, £l.
The Foreign and Colonial undertakings remain
without change of importance.
Bank and Miscellaneous shares are generally a
shade flatter.
