NONIY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

CITY, TWELVE o'CLocK.
Discounters are now awaiting the proceedings of
the Bank of England directors with considerable
anxiety, another advance of 1 per cent. being re-
garded us certain. In proof of this, it may be
mentioned that numerous inquiries have been made
at that establishment this morning to ascertain
whether the regulations had been altered, the
withdrawals yesterday of 130,000 sovereigns
and £6,000 in bar gold having suggested the
idea that the authorities might act at once
instead of waiting till their usual Thursday court.
First class bills are negotiated at 6 per cent., but
reluctance is manifested to transact business at the
current terms.

The True Briten has arrived, with £117,930 iL
gold and 20,000 sovereigns.

There was a further slight upward movement in
the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon,
Sir Henry E. Fox Young, C. 8., late Governor
of Tasmania and South Australia, Mr. Edward
Tootal, one of the directors of the London and
North-Western Railway, and Mr. John Allnutt
have joined the board of the Australian Mortgage
Land and Finance Company,
The Union Bank of Australia held a special meet-
to-day for the purpose of considering the propriety
of increasing the capitil of the institution from
£1,000,000 to £1,250,000. Mr. R. Brooks, M.P.,
presided, and the directors stated that they advised
the augmentation of the capital by the creation and
if 381.13 of 10,000 new shares of £25 each, at a pre-
mium of £2O to be issued to the present proprietors
in the proportion of one new share for every four
old shares. Of this amount when raised it was
proposed to set aside £50,000 in augmentation of
the reserve fund, and to write off £75,000 on ac-
count of bank premises. Some opposition was
evinced by the meeting to the large premium asked
for by the directors, and a discussion upon the
subject was proceeding when this report was sent off.

Two O'CLOCK.
At the Paris Bourse this day, according to Mr.
Renter's telegram, the French 3 per Cent. Rentea
wr:re 67f. 15e. to 67f. 17c.
An improvement of per cent, has taken place
to-day in the English Stock Market, owing to a
few
speculative purchases, encouraged by higher
prices from the Paris Bourse, and an impression Sh
that the Bank directors may not, after all, find it 1°
necessary to make a further immediate alteration 4t!
in their terms of discount. 92
Consols, therefore, are
1, -1 for transfer, and 911 less the dividend,
for the account. The New Threes and Reduced
Annuities are steady, at 901 I; the 30 Years' An- i
nuities are marked 14,3; and Exchequer Bills have I
touched 9s. discount, showing an increased de-
pre
ssion. India 5 per Cents, are 1082- i; the st Enfaced 5 per Cents., 1051; and the Debentures,
1.

The Foreign Market opened with a very heavy et
appearance, but a firmer tone has since been per-
ceptible, and prices are now almost the same as on
the previous afternoon. Turkish 6 per Cents.,lB62,
are 701 71 ; ditto, Consolides, 47i 481; Mexican, t
39Z -1; Greek, 301 to 1; ditto Coupons, 14} 1--; at
Spanish Passive, 334 34; Portuguese, 491; ditto ,t;
New scrip, 11 I prem. ; Italian, 71-I ; and the
Confederate Loan, 62 64.
The operations in the Railway Share Market
have been of a very restricted character, and prices
ti
have shown further depression. Great Eastern and :IC
Great Western have declined 55.; Brighton, North
atc
Western, and South Western, 102. ; Caledonian and itc
South Eastern, 15s. ; and Metropolitan, 30s. 5
The Foreign and Colonial lines remain inactive, t-
and barely sustain former rates.
Bank Shares are dull. Bank of Australia New
Shares have declined 10s, and Alliance New Shares
ss. London Joint Stock have improved 155., and
Union of Australia, 10s. General Credit and Finance
are quoted 61; International Financial, 8-1 9; and ltuyv.l Mail Steam, 73.
