MONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, Two O'CLOCK.

The city, to-day, presents quite a holiday appear-
ance, the Stock Exchange and most of the other
principal establishments being closed.
In the money market there is very little enquiry
for accommodation, and three months bills of a
superior character are readily negociated at 61 per
cent., and exceptional transactions are reported at
even slightly lower quotations.
The movements of the precious metals during the
past week continued on a rather extensive scale, the
imports amounting to about £735,192. The
Monarch from Australia brought £257,122. The
Arabia from New York, £6,191; the City of New
York from ditto, £220,000. The Scotia has
arrived with £9U,000, and the Saxonia with £21,000.
The Delta from Alexandra has also been announced
with £569, and about £150,000 in silver, has been
received from the Continent.

The exports have been limited and comprise
£122,519 to the East Indies and China by the
Poonah, and there have been remittances to the
Continent through private channels, estimated at
about £126,270. The total amounting to £258,860.
