COMMERCIAL INTILLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The inquiry for discount accommodation this
morning has not been so active as during the few
preceding days, and an easier tone is therefore now
perceptible. The rates are 31 4 we cent. fur the
negotiation of the best commercial bills.

In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon
there was no change of importance.
There was a further influx of £30,000 in bar
gold at the Bank yesterday.
The arrival of specie antir)unced today comprise
£43,220 by the America from New York, and
.E 4198 by the Ripon from Alexandria.
An important undertaking is the London Cocoa-
nut Fibre Company, recently brought before the
notice of the investing classes. It purposes the
purchase of the letters patent for the exclusive
manufacture, according to Mr, Davies' invention, of
articles from the fibre of the cocoa-ntit. It is
averred that not only does the unique manipulative
process of the patent impart to the fabric a better
pile than the old mode, but also that its durability
is greater and its Bost considerably reduced. The
chief articles manufactured from the fabric are mats
and other descriptions of floor-cloths, and it is very
correctly presumed that their greater cheapness will
materially extend the now increasing demand for
domestic and other uses. the capital required for
purchasing the patent, looms, and plant, and for
working the business fin a large scale, is £20,000,
to be raised by shares.

Another large hotel is to be erected by the Rich-
mond-hill Hotel Company, which has just been
announced with a nominal capital of £lOO,OOO, the
first issue consisting of 5,000 shares of £lO each.
The directors have secured the property known as
the Ashburnham Lodge, upon which site they in-
tend to erect the new establishment. Reference
is made in the prospectus to the large profits de-
rivable from this description of enterprise, and to
the attractions Richmond affords for the permanent
and temporary residence of Londoners and others,
Interest at the rate of 5 per cent. is to be paid on
the shares until the opening of the hotel.

Very little alteration is apparent to-day in the
market for the English Funds, Consols being 924
for transfer, and 9244 for the account. The trans-
actions have been very circumscribed. The New
Threes and Reduced Annuities are steady at 91-1,-
92 ; the 30 Years' An unities have realised 14, 16-16
India Mocks continue firm; the 5 per Cent. Loan
is 1084 -Z-; the 4 per Cent. Enfaced Paper, 974; the
5 per Cent. ditto, 1064 4; Exchequer Bills are well
maintained at 4s. dis. to par.
There is rather less firmness in the Foreign Stock
Market, and business is quiet. Turkish 6 per

Business in the Railway Share Market has con.
tinned inactive, and few variations of importance
can be reported in prices. Great Nflr estern have de-
clined 10s., and North E istern (Berwick) ss. Lon-
don, Cnatham, and Dover, have improved £l,
North Western, 10s., and S Juth Eastern, ss.

dull. Great Luxembourg realised 144 ; Dutch
Rhenish, 174; Great Indian Peninsula, 1074 ; and
