ONE Y MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Wry little business is now transacted in the
general discount market, the mercantile classes
keeping aloof until after the weekly meeting of the
Bank directors, owing to the expectation of a reduc-
tion in the minimum.
Gold is now about 3-10ths per cent. dearer in
London than in Paris, and about 8-10ths per cent.
higher here than in Hamburg.
The Continental Exchanges yesterday afternoon
exhibited no material alteration ; the quotations on
Italy, however were a shade lower.
The dividend on Louisiana State Bonds has been
announced for payment.

The directors of the London, Birmingham, and
South Staffordshire Bank have appointed their
managers, and it is expected that business will
be commenced at an early date.
It is notified that Mr. G. A. Addison, one of the
inspectors of the London and County Bank, has
bee❑ appointed manager of the London and South-
Western Bank.

Two O'CLOCK.
At Paris this morning, according to Reuter's
telegram, French Rentes were 70f. 15c.—flat.
Owing to the extreme dullness of the market for
English Stocks, a few operations are sufficient to
produce a fractional effect upon the quotations.
Some sales have taken place this morning, and,
although they represented a very small aggregate
amount, they led to a decline of k per cent., Consols
being 921 a for transfer, and 921 for the account.
the New 3 per Cents. and the Reduced are flat at
921 ; Exchequer Bills ls. dis. to 3s. prem.; India
5 per Cent. Loan remains at 108;, ; and the Deben-
tures at 100.

been rather restricted, but prices generally have
been well supported. Turkish 6 per Cents., 1854,
are firm at 90 ; do.. 1858, 73i 6 ; do., 1862, 701 ;
and the Consohdes, 41/ 42 ; Egyptian are firm, and
Grenadian Bonds have slightly improved. Italians
have receded to 69 ; Moorish, 94k.

In the Railway Share Market the dealings con-
tinued moderately active, but prices generally ex-
hibit less firmness. Great Westerns, Lancashire
and Yorkshire, and Metropolitan have declined 54.;
Edinburgh and Glasgow, Midland, and South
Easterns, 10s.; and North British £1 ; Caledonians,
however, have receded ss.

Toe Foreign and Colonial lines also were depressed.
South Austrian and Lombardo-Venetian have re-
ceded to 23k, Great Luxemburg to 151„ Eastern
Bengais to 1054, and Great Indian Peninsula to
1054.

and County to 401 ; Crystal Palace Stock br3ught
32 ; and Peninsular and Oriental Steam, 73.
