CONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

There is very little change to report in the money
market, the demand being moderate, and quotations
steady.

been about £295,000, and the exports £179,500.
A dividend at the rate of 10 per cent. has been
declared by the Iron Screw Collier Company.

There was a meeting yesterday of the creditors of
Mr. John Henry Krabbe, who suspended payment
i° consequence of his connection with the firm of
Messrs. Janvrin, Grassie, and De Lisle. A state-
Mont of the affairs was presented by the accoun-
tants, Messrs. Quitter, Ball, Jay, and Co., from
Which it appeared that the liabilities of the London
house amounted to £4,504, and the assets to £1,644.
The liabilities of the corresponding house of Per-
nambuco, trading under the names of Krabbe,
Thom, and Co., were stated to be £18,966, and the
assets £9,341. The engagements of the firm at
Bahia, carrying on business under the name of John
R. Krabbe and Co., were represented to be £38,465,
and the assets £25,698. It was resolved that the

ment to be registered under the Bankruptcy Act.

The official returns relating to the trade and
navigation of the United Kingdom for the twelve-
months ending the 31st December, 1862, have just
been published, from which it appears that the total
declared value of the exports during that period
amounted to £124,137,812 against £125,102,814 in
the year 1861, showing a decrease of £965,002.
The decrease is most perceptible in cotton yarn,
cotton
Manufactures, machinery, sheep and lambs'-
Wool, and woollen manufactures.
The imports of the principal articles have been
smaller As regards raw cotton, tallow, sugar, tim-
ber, and tobacco.

The shipping accounts exhibit a slight increase
in the amount of tonnage employed in the foreign
trade for both the entries inwards and the clearances
outwards, as also in the coasting trade for same
period.

Owing to the reported resignation of M. Fonld,
and the depression of the Paris Bourse, the Funds
