RONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TvrELTE O'CLocK.
With the exception of an increased tendency
towards additional ease, there is no perceptible
alteration in the geieral aspect of the discount
market, where there is still an abundance of money.
The bullion operations at the Bank of England
yesterday comprised the influx of £72,000, and the
-withdrawal of 150,000 sovereigns.
The Edinburgh has arrived from New York with
£138,400, the Norwegian with £1,400, and the City
of Manchester with £35,000.

Two O'CLOCK.

At the Paris Bourse this day, according to Mr.
Reuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes were
70f. 10c. to 70f. 15c.—Very firm.
The adjourned meeting of the shareholders of the
Ottoman Bank took place to-day. Sir W. Clay,
Bart., presided, and informed the proprietors that
the meeting had been adjourned from the sth March
last in crder to afford the directors an opportunity
of meeting them without going through the ordi-
nary process of issuing summonses if the neces-
sity for such a purpose arose. Nothing, however,
had arisen in the interim, and all that the directors
had now to perform was the pleasing duty of con-
gratulating the shareholders upon the progress that
was being made with the dissolution of the old in-
stitution and the preparations for the new Impe-
rial Bank of Turkey. It was hoped that a suffi-
cient number of certificates to be returned for the
old share s would be ready in a few days, and that a
settlement in them might take place within the
present month. The meeting was then again for-
mally adjourned.

The Bank of England minimum remains at 4
per cent, the directors at their weekly court to-day
refrained from making any alteration.
Rather less buoyancy has prevailed in the Eng-
lish Stock Maiket to-day, Consols having receded
to 921 g for money, and 02/ for the account.
The heaviness thus prodnced has resulted from
a few sales in realisation of profits. Spe-
culation, however, continues dull. The New
Threes and Reduced Annuities remain at
9114. Bank Stock is marked 2331, and the New
3 per Cent. Annuities at 911 1. Exchequer Bills
have improved to 2s. dis.. India Stock is quoted
228 230 ; the 5 per Cent. Loan is steady at 108'1
1001; the 5 per Cent. Enfaced Paper at 1074 ; and
the 51 per Cent. ditto at 114:. The 4 per Cent.
Debentures (1864, 1866) are 100 Z, and the Bonds
12s. prem.

In the Foreign Market a general decline has
taken place, and the dealings are less numerous.
Greek have dropped 1 per cent., viz., to 271; and
the Coupons 12,1 13 ; Turkish Consolides
declined t.--to 48-1 ; the 6 per Cents, of 1862 are
691 a ; Italian, 711; do., New Loan, 21 prem.;
Spanish Passive have advanced to 29L1 i; Mexican,
33i I ; Danish Scrip, 1 I prom. ; and Portuguese,
1862, 48.
