ONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
There is a fair demand for money in the general
discount market to-day, but discounters continue
to evince great caution in all their operations, and
are only willing to negotiate three months' bills at
6 per cent, for their special customers.
Since Monday last the imports of specie have
been to the extent of £796,900, while the exports
have reached £1,118,600.
In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon
there was a further upward movement in the rates
on nearly all the principal continental cities except
St, Petersburg, which were considerably lower,
Owing to the unfavourable advices respecting finan-
cial affairs there.

The list of applications for shares in the Aus-
tralian Mortgage Laud and Finance Company will
be closed for London, on Friday, the 20th instant,
and for the country on Saturday, the 21st inst.
Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co.'s agents in
Venezuela advise that they have received for 55 per
cent. of the import duties for one week, from the
custom-house: of L% Guayra 31,999 dols. Bc., and
Puerto Cabello 1,146 dols. 6e., making a total of
33,140 dole. 94c. At the departure of the mail they
were settling with the custom-house at La Gaavra
for another week, but the statement was not in time
to be forwarded by this packet. Messrs. Baring
Brothers and Co. have received by this mail, on
account of the New Grenada dividends, from the
custom-house of Buenaventura, £634.

Two o'CLocit.
At the Paris Bourse this day, according to Mr.
Reuter's telegram, the French 3 per Cent. Rentes
Were 67f. 25c.—Heavy.
There is not much animation in the English
Funds to-day, the speculative operations being con-
ducted on a very limited scale, and the increased
value of money prevents the possibility of any large
investments. Consols are the same as at the close
of business yesterday afternoon—viz., 921 a for
money, and 911 1, less the dividend, for the account.
The New Threes are 90! a ; the Reduced, 90!-;
India 5 per Cents., 1081 1; ditto Enfaced, 1051;
ditto Debentures, 99/ ; and Exchequer Bills 4s. dis.
In the Market for Foreign Securities there is a
decidedly heavy tone, and business is very much
curtailed. Turkish 6 per Cents., 1858, are 691 ;
do., 1862, 701 71 ; do., Consolides have receded to
471 481; Mexican, to 38i,T 391; Spanish Passive, to
336 34; do., Certificates, to 121 13; but Greek are
rather firmer at 3011; while the Coupons are heavy
at 14/ I; Portuguese 1862, have declined to 486
491; do., New Scrip, to 11 I prem. ; Italian, to 711;
and the Confederate Loan is 60 62.
In the Railway Share Market the operations have
been of a rather limited description. The dealers
and speculators are occupied with the arrangements
for the half monthly settlement. Great Eastern,
Great Western, South Western and Midland have
declined 55., and North Eastern (Berwick), 10s.,
While Lancashire and Yorkshire have advanced 10s,
The Foreign and Colonial Lines have been ne-
glected, and exhibit no change as regards prices.
Bank and Miscellaneous Shares also continue in
very limited request. Consolidated Bank have re-
ceded to 91, and Union of London to 39/. Discount
Corporation are flat at 101 ?„ and International
Financial at 81 9. National Shipping Co. are
quoted 5 to 51 prem., and Swedish Bank from 3 to
al
Prem.
