MONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK,

Discount firms are finding good employment for
their money. The demand for accommodation is
general and very active, and brokers are enabled
to obtain the full charge of 4 per cent. for the
best short-dated bills. Besides the want of capital
for trade which continues to show favourable signs of
expansion, large sums are being daily absorbed for
the new loans and joint stock companies. The
opinion, therefore, that money must ere long be
dearer is founded upon good data.
The directors of the Land Mortgage Bank of
India will proceed to make the allotment as early
as possible, but in cocscquence of the unprecedented
number of applications, a delay of some days must
necessarily elapse before the letters can be posted.
The report of the intended appearance of a similar
undertaking is incorrect.
The progress of business in the Foreign and
Colonial Produce Markets during the last few days
has been moderately active. Tea, sugar, and coffee
have each been in fair request at fully late prices.
RICO has been dull, while the operations in the tal-
low market have been o❑ a limited scale for both
present and former delivery at about previous quo-
tations.

The Committee of the Stcck Exchange have ap-
pointed the 16th inst. fora special settlement in the
shares of the following undertakings; the first two
are only to be officially marked :—The scrip of the
6 per cent. Colombian Government Loan ; the Lon-
don and Paris Hotel Company ; the Clarence Hotel
Company ; the Nice Hotel Company, and the A
shares of the Commercial Navigation Company of
India.

Two O'CLOCK.
No alteration has occurred this morning in the
English Stock Market, although the business trans-
acted has been rather large than for the past two
days. Consols, however, are somewhat heavy, at
their former values, being 924 93 for money, and
93 4 4 for the account. The New Threes and
Reduced Annuities are 911 ; Bank Stocir. is 233
235 ; Exchequer Bills remain at par to 3s. prem. ;
and the 30 Years Annuities, 14.1. The 5 per Cent.
India Loan is 108 i 109 ; the 4 per Cent. Enfaced
Paper, 984 ; and the Debentures are 99i 1001.
There is more quietude and steadiness in the
Foreign Market to-day, the operations being very
curtailed. Turkish 6 per Cents. 1858, are 701-1 ;
do., 1862, 7117 do., Consolides, 531 a ; Greek, 331
34; do., Coupons, 151 161; Mexican, 421-; Spanish
Passive, 344 35; do., Certificates, 131 14k; Internal
Passive, 30 1 ; Portuguese, 491 ; Italian, 721 ;
Russian, 931 ; Egyptian, 1004 101 ; the Confederate
Loan, 63 65 ; and the Colombian Lean, par to *
prem.

In the Railway Share Market the operations
have been of the most limited description, and
prices have generally shown a downward move-
ment. Caledonian and South Eastern have receded
Es., and Stockton and Darlington, 10s.
The Foreign and Colonial undertakings have
been in very limited favour at barely previous rates.
Bank Shares have remained inactive. Hindus-
tan, China, and Japan have receded to 271-; Lon-
don Joint Stock, to 36/; Standard of British South
Africa, to 231 ; India Land Mortgage Bank are
quoted 31 4 prem. ; Anglo-Austrian, 1 prem. ;
Privileged Bank of Austria, par; and East Lon-
don, 1/ to 2 prem.
In the Miscellaneous Market Royal Mail Steam
shares are steady at 74 7.5 ; and Discount Corpora-
tion are quoted 3/ 3/ prem.
