MONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The Discount Market continues very steady, with
fair amount of business. Four per cent. seems to
be the general rate for three months' paper, al-
though occasional business is negotiated on frac-
tionally easier terms.

A further supply of gold, amounting to £60,000,
Was sant on Saturday to the Bank of England, and
a further influx is expected during the current
'week.

The advices respecting trade in the mannfatur-
mg districts continue encouraging. Manchester
has had on hand large orders for India and China,
and manufacturers have refused to transact busi-
ness, except at advanced quotations. For woollen,
linen, and flax goods a brisk demand has been ex-
perienced at Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield.
Business in the hardware departments of Sheffield,
and Wolverhampton has also been very active, the
principal orders being from the agricultural dis-
tricts, and from foreign governments for gun metal
armour plates, &O.

Two o'CLocic.

At Paris, this day, according to Mr. Reuter's
telegram, the French 3 per Cent. Rentes were
67E 65c.—inanimate.
Little, if any, alteration can be noted in con-
nection with the progress of business in the Eng-
lish Stock market. The transactions continue on
the same limited scale as for some time past, and
they do not exercise any apparent influence upon
the quotations beyond affording them support.
Consols continue at 931 for money, and at 931
for the account. The New Threes and Reduced
Annuities are 937, 9, and Exchequer Bills are ls. dis.
to 2e, prem. Indian Securities are 1081 ; the
Enfaced 51 per Cents., 1161 a.

Some of the Foreign Stocks slightly declined soon
after the commencement of business, but there is
now a firmer tone. Turkish Consolides have risen
to 509 e ; do., 1858 loan, to 721- t ; and the 1862
issue, to 68i 691; Greek have likewise advanced to
34Z 1; and the Coupons are 161 1. There has been
a rise of about 1 per cent. in the Confederate Loan,
which is now 25 23 die.; Spanish Passive have been
dealt in at 34 1 ; the Italian do. have remained at
271 17; and the Certificates are flat at 12a
Transactions have also taken place in Equador New
Consolidated at 161, and in Danish, 1825, Loan,
85-1 ; Egyptian 7 per Cents. are higher, at 1041 4;
and Portuguese are also firm at 481 ; Venezuelan
3 per Cents. continue at 24.1, ; Russian Securities
are rather lower, the loan of 1850 being marked
89, and that of 1862, 923- 1; Italian 5 per Cents.
are flat at 711.

In the Railway Share Market the operations have
been limited, a firmer tone, however, has in some
instances prevailed, North Western have improved
108., and North Eastern (Berwick) and South
Eastern 55.; while Caledonian and Great Western
have each receded about 58.

For the Foreign and Colonial undertakings there
has been a very limited inquiry, and quotations
are unaltered.

Bank and Miscellaneous Shares in several in-
stances are a shade firmer. Buenos Ayres and
River Plate have advanced 55.; London and
County, ss. ; Hudson's Bay Company snares are
quoted 3 g ; and General Credit and Finance,
