AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Exceptional transactions are reported in the
Discount Market at 3-1 per cent., but 4 per cent, is
still generally asked for three months' bills, and the
demand is well kept up.
A further sum of £4,000 in gold was taken into
the Bank yesterday.
During the last few days there has not been much
animation in the Foreign and Colonial Produce
Markets. The dealings in tea have been suspended
/mil the public sales, which commence to day,
Sugsrs have been in limited request at previcus
Prices, while coffee, rice, fruit, and spices have re-
mained without any material alteration in values.
The tallow market has ben dull, and rather lower
ratee are current for both present and forward de-
livery.

The first ordinary general meeting of the Char -
ing-eross Hotel Company was held to-day—the
Hon. James Bing in the chair. The report. which

had obtained a lease of the site for the hotel at the
Charing-cross Railway Terminus for 1,000 years, at
a cost of £65,000. The chairman stated that Mr.
Lucas was constructing the establishment, which
Would be completed in a short time, and in good
architectural style.

telegram, the Three per Cent. Itentes were 67f. 55c.

There is scarcely any alteration to-day in the
English Funds, and the dealings are on a very
reduced scale. The tendency at the latest moment
appears rather favourable, owing to the receipt of
higher prices from the Paris Bourse. Consols are
934- for transfer, and 934 for the account.
The New Threes and Reduced Annuities are 934- e ;
