MONEY MARKET( SHARE

AND
COMIERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
A very active demand prevails in the Money
Market for accommodation, and 31 4 per cent. are
the lowest charges for short-dated bills.
A further sum of £65,000 in bar gold was with-
drawn from the Bank yesterday for exportation.
In the foreign exchasges yesterday afternoon a
general downward movement took place.

Since Monday last the imports of specie have
amounted to £723,500, and the exports to
£706,000.

The National Steam Navigation Company is a
new undertaking of great importance. It is
proposed to place on the New York station a fleet
of screw steamers from Liverpool and London, of
large size and capacity, which, from the regularity
of their passages, will doubtless command a full
share of the steam trade, as well as that of sailing
vessels. As time shall mature the progress of
the company's operations, steamers are to ply
to ports in South America, and, when the
war is over, to the American cotton ports.
Provisional arrangements have been made whereby
three new steamers have been secured, and contracts
have been entered into for the building of others of
about 3,500 tons each. The operations of the com-
pany are to commence by fortnightly services each
way, to be increased to weekly as soon as all
the vessels are ready. The ports of departure
are to be—Liverpool for the weekly line, and
London to the extent the metropolitan trade
may require. Reference is made in the prospectus
to the success of kindred institutions, such as the
Cunard and Inman Company, the Pacific Steam
Navigation Company, &c. The capital required is
£2,e00,000, which is divided into 20,000 shares of
£lOO each. The board of direction is respectably
and influentially constituted, and the project is
recommended by about sixty Lyndon firms, includ-
ing Messrs. Rothschild, Peabody, Rodocanachi, &c.
The shares are now 41 to 51 prem.

Two O'CLOCK.
English Stocks continue dull and
without altera-
tion. There is an absence of speculation in this
department, and the bona fide operations are also
very small. Consols remain at 93 s for money and
account. The New Threes and Reduced are 913 1-;
Exchequer Bills are ls. dis. to 2s. prem.; India
6 per Cent., 1091; do., 4 per Cent., 100 i ; do. 4
per Cent. Enfaced Paper, 981; do. 5 per Cent.,
1061, 107 ; and do. 51 per Cent., 1151.
In the Foreign Market there is not much ani-
mation, and prices tend downwards. Turkish 6 per
Cents., 1862, are 713 1; do., Consolides, 53
hlexican, 403 3 ; Greek, 30 4 ; do., Coupons, 143 3;
Portuguese, 493 50 ; do., New Loan, 13 23 prem. ;
Spanish Passive, 353 3 ; and do., Certificates, 1313.
Business in the Railway Share Market has
been moderately active, but in most instances
prices have shown less firmness. Great Eastern,
Great Northern, and North Western have declined
London and Brighton, Metropolitan, and Mid-
land, 1; and Caledonian and South Eastern, 1.
The Foreign and Colonial lines show little
change of importance.
Bank Shares have also in same instances been
rather flatter. Chartered of India, London, and
China have declined to 72 1; Union of Australia
to 601.

In the Miscellaneous Market London Financial
shares have improved to 16k, and Royal Mail Steam
have declined to 763. The latest current quota-
tions for several of the principal new undertakings
are as subjoined :—lndia Lind Mortgage Bank,
23 31 prem.; East London 3 to 31 prem ; Mercan-
tile Credit, 31 31 prem.; S wedisn Bank, 41 5
