ibBEY MARKET

AND

COMMtIiCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The inquiry for money to-day in the disoount
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 Bank of
England. The charge for the best paper has ranged
from 6s per cent. upwards.
About £35,000 in gold was taken into the Bank
on Saturday.
The Seine has arrived from the West Indies with
£224 161 •

Business in the manufacturing districts during
the Past Week has presented indications of improve-
taent• At Manchester prices for cotton yarn were
arnier during the last few days, and the textile
fabrics of Leeds, Huddersfield, Halifax, Bradford,
and Norwich were in good demand. At Sheffield,
however, the several branches of industry showed
,Blight indications of dullness, but at Birmingham
irtrger orders were being received.

There has been a decline of 3-16 this morning in
the market for the English Funds. This down-
!ail movement 'has been accelerated by thn un-
iftvotirabie feeling with which foreign politics are

Annuities are 891 -I; Exchequer Bills, ss. dis.; and

The Foreign and Colonial undertakings remain
laaetive, at about former rates.

fl ROYAL ACADEMY EXHIBITION WILL BE
wftv.
Ilv THE EVENING, as of late years, at the end of
the eighth week of its continuance, on the 27th inst.
A PRETTY PLAIN HINT TO THE ROYAL
Ae4l)ElM—The House of Commons will not allow
tthe- National Gallery to be removed from Trafalgar-square
hohe site of Burlington House. Nor can we wonder at
ta resolution. Four years ago a vote of £17,000 was
hill,eh 0U the understanding that the pictures were to re-
f,---441 where they are, and buch a vote can hardly be with •
it4t its force in the minds of men who deliberately passed
There are, in our opinion, only two available sites in
i°"°ll--South Kensington and Trafalgar-square. A gal-
csq built in South Kensington might be made to unite all
tit national treasures under one roof—the old masters and
the
i:modern masters. Nowhere else can this be done—for
frile of our best piczures of the English school have been
to tbpublic on the expressed condition that they are
the exhibited there. A gallery in Trafalgar-square bas
tio groat advantage of a noble site and of a central post-
ettti. Piccadilly, midway between the two, escapes the
reetion offered by each. The modern school could not
she removed to it ; and it would certainly be further from
oe Public and from students of Art. This vote puts an
off`te the, dream of the Academicians. What will they
fr nest? They cannot long remain where they are—
°,,r„ if the national pictures must be hung in Trafalgar-
ttrre, Every inch of available space will b 3 required for
fo:t. Purpose. The Academy is rich ; lot it build a place
2tself It declines to become a national institution—
let it have notice to retire from the occupancy of our
national property.—.4aenerunt.
