COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Business in discount circles is still reported
active, with undiminished firmness in the quota-
tions, the supplies of mor.ey in the hands of the
dealers being comparatively moderate.
About £4,000 in gold was taken into the Bank
on Saturday.
The accounts from the manufacturing districts
for the past week are again of a satisfactory charac-
ter. At Manchester there has been a fair amount
of business in cloths and yarns, at previous prices.
In the woollen trade of Leeds, Bradford, and Hud-
dersfield, the principal inquiry has been for autumn
and winter fabrics, which have changed hands to
some extent. Business in the hosiery and lace
departments at Leicester and Nottingham continued
active, and there has been a more cheerful tone in
the hardware districts—viz., at Birmingham, Shef-
field, and Wolverhampton.

Two O'CLOCK,

At Paris this day, according to Mr. Reuter's
telegram, the French 3 per Cent. Relates were
69f. 20c. for account.
Very few operations have taken place to-day in
the market for Consols, which, however, are a little
firmer at 93;1 for money, and 931' 91 for the
October account. There is not the slightest
feature of novelty in this department of
the House, nor does there appear to be the
least prospect of business, notwithstanding
the speculative activity of the foreign market.
Transactions have taken place in the New Threes at
921 1-, and the Reduced Annuities 921 ; India
6 per Cents., 1081 ; and Excliequei Bills, par to
2s. prem.
The most important features in the Foreign
Market today is the decline i❑ the Confederate
Loan, upon the information by the China, and the
rise in Mexican, owing to numerous purchases; the
former, which has been 35 to 33 die., is now 31 to
29 discount, or 3 per cent. lower than on Friday,
and the latter has advanced 11, viz., to 421.
Turkish 6 per Cents., 1858, are 70; ditto, 1862,
701 711; ditto, Consolides, 531 -,1-; Greek, 37i d ;
ditto Coupons, 181 ; Italian, 73,1 ; Spanish Passive,

_ _ .

In the Railway Share Market business has been
rather inactive, and few changes of importance can
be reported in prices. Great Western and Metro•
politan, however, have each improved about 10s.,
While North-Eastern (Berwick) have declined ss.
The Foreign and Colonial lines generally main-
tain previous rates.
Bank and Miscellaneous Shares continued inac-
tive. City Bank, however, improved to 102; ; Bank
of Australasia to 771 ; while London and West-
minster declined to 78i. Crystal Palace stock re-
mains steady at 39i ; General Credit and Finance
is marked 4Z- ; Egyptian Trading Company, 31 3 ;
Hudson's Bay Company, 9: 1-; and International

ascent of the Vignemale, the highest moun-

by Mine. de Neufbourg, a niece of General de Berthier,
that lady being the third of her sex accomplishing the feat.
She was accompanied by Lamargue, the same guide that
had formerly accompanied the Dui:hess do Berry and the
Duke de Nemours in their ascents,
