HONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

There is rather less demand for money in the
Discount Market to-day, with better supplies. The
general rate for the best short-dated securities is
4 per cent., but exceptional transactions are re-
ported at 31.
The bullion operations at the Bank yesterday
comprised the itAlux of £Bl,OOO in gold, and the
withdrawal of 54,000 sovereigns.
The Etna, from New York, has brought £131,000.
The bar silver by the Tasmanian has been sold at
ss. lid. per cz. standard, showing no alteration.
In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon
there was no change of importance.

Another joint-stock bank for Austria has been
announced under the title of the Anglo-Austrian
Bank, whose fixed capital of £2,000,000 is to be
raised by shares of 1:20 each. A direct concession
from the Imperial Government has been obtained
for the undertaking, which, according to the pub-
lished statement of his Excellency M. Von Plener,
the Minister of Finance at Vienna, is to enjoy the
great privilege of transacting the financial business
of the Government. The head office is to be
at Vienna, with branches at Trieste, Prague,
and Brunt]. In England, Messrs. Glyn, Mills,
and Co. are the financial agents, and the
London manager is Mr. Francis Breuer, who
has had 25 years' experience in German commercial
and financial bubinesa with the firm of Messrs.
Fruhling and Goschen. The council of directors
comprises his Highness Prince Lto Sapieha, S. A.
Beaumont, M.P., Baron Erggelet (Henikstein and
Co.), G. G. Glyn, M.P., Count Eugene Kinsky,
Member of the Auarian Reichsrath ; Charles Klein,
Alexander Schroder (A. and C. Schroder), Baron
Tinti, member of the Austrian Reichsrath; S. Win.
terstein, ditto; Count Edmond Zlchy, and Adalbert
Zinner. The broker is Mr. George E. Seymour.
As to the success which must attend the operations
of the institution, reference is made to the harmony
now happily existing between the Imperial Go-
vernment and the members of the Reichsrath,
the increasing confidence of all classes of
the people in the liberal measures lately adopted 1
by their Parliament, the vigour which the Govern-
ment have shown in founding its fiscal policy upon
free trade principles, and the removal of many of
the impediments which formerly prevented Austria
from enjoying the benefits of its vast commercial
resources. The directors also allude to the exten-
sion of the railway system throughout the country,
the increased activity of private trade, the rise in
the value of the Government stock in all the money
markets, and the important augmentation that has
taken place in her export and import trade. The
shares are 11 I prem.

Two O'CLOCK.

At Paris this day, according to Mr. Reuter's tele
gram, the 3 per Cent. Routes were at 67f. 60c.
—Very fiat in consequence of the fall in English
Funds.

The English Funds have suffered this morning
to the extent of 4 per cent., which has been in great
part attributed to the impending hostilities be-
tween Germany and Denmark. This market,how-
ever, required but little exciting news to effect
quotations in its present inactive state. Consols
are quoted 93 for money and the Bth inst., and
931 for November. The New Threes and Re-
duced Annuities are depressed at 91a ; the 30
Years' Annuities are 142- ; and Exchequer Bills par
to 33. prem.; India Stock is unsteady at 224, the
5 per Cent. Loan continues at 108 f, j ; the 51 per
Cent. Enfaced 116 S, and the Bonds are quoted
18s. 225. prem.

The principal speculative Foreign Securities have
experienced a decided fall in values upon extensive
sales, and the market presents a heavy appearance.
Turkish 6 per Cents., 1862, are 701 71; do., Con-
solides have declined to 521 53; Greek, 371 ;
do., Coupons, 171 -1,-; Mexican, 43 1 ; Spanish
Passive, 35 ; do., Certificates, 131. ; the Confe-
derate Loan is 26 24 die.; the Columbian Loan,
/I, prem. ; Portuguese, 491 4 ; Italian, 721 ; and
Russian, 931.

Business in the Railway Share Market has been
exceedingly inactive, and the few dealings recorded
have been at a further slight decline. South-
Western, North-Eastern, Berwick, and South-
Eastern have each receded ss. ; and Caledonian 10s.
The Foreign and Colonial lines show little
change of importance as regards prices.
Bank and Miscellaneous Shares are in some in-
instances rather flatter. Bank of New Zealand
have receded to 124 ; Hindustan, Chins, and Japan
to 291 ; London and County to 53i ; and Union of
London to 381 ; East London Bank shares are
quoted 2 prem ; Indian Land Mortgage Bank,
21 3 prem ; and Anglo-Austrian, 1 11 prem ; Gene-
ral Credit and Finance realise 41 59; International
Financial shares, 101; London Financial, 131- 14k;
and Hudson Bay Company, 9 :1-b.
