MONEY FEARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The money market is a little easier, although the
rates have not undergone any material alteration.
The Omar Pasha has been announced to-day
from Australia with £90,000 in gold.
The West India steamer, Ls Plata, which left
to-day, conveyed £3,000 in specie.

A remittance of £1,869 lls. 9d. has been received
by Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co. on account of
the New Grenada dividends.

The accounts from the manufacturing districts
for the past week represent that business in some
respects has been more satisfactory. At Manchester,
however, there has been little or no improvement,
and prices of both stocks and yarns have slightly
given way. The woollen trade of Leeds, Bradford,
Halifax, and Huddersfield has been seasonably
active, and a more buoyant tone has prevailed in the
hosiery and lace departments at Leicester and Not-
tingham. In the hardware districts, viz., at Bir-
mitigham. Sheffield, and Wolverhampton, there has
been little change of importance.
The Factage Parisien—Paris General Parcels
Post and International Carrying Company—has
been formed for the purpose of supplying
France
with greater facilities than she now possesses for the
delivery of goods, &c. The great addition to the
traffic of the two countries consequent on the
recent commercial treaty renders some better
accommodation necessary, more particularly
when it is taken into account that the French
capital possessed none of those facilities which
England obtains from the Parcels Delivery
Company, and the private firms, such as Pickford,
Chaplin, &c. Negotiations are stated to be in pro-
gress between many of the principal English and
French iiailways for the transit of their goods,
besides which a valuable concession has been granted
to the company by the Prefet and the municipality
of Paris—privileges indispensable for conducting
the local trade, and invaluable for the
international traffic. The internal trade of
the empire will, it is thought, yield a
considerable revenue, but with the addition to the
general trade that must inevitably ensue from the
many foreign treaties France has lately made, a
much larger field of enterprise is open to the com-
pany. The capital of the undertaking is fixed at
£200,000, in 10,000 shares of £2O each. The
direction comprises some of the most highly respect-
able names in both countries, and among them is
M. E. Fercade, who is well and honourably ;known
as a writer on finance and international trade.

The half-yearly meeting of the English, Scottish,
and Australian Chartered Bank took place to-day.
Mr. Stephen P. Kennard presiding. The report
presented to the shareholders gave the balance of
profit on the transactions of the past six months at
£23,261 is. Bd., which the directors recommended
to be appropriated as follows:—£15,000 for dividend
at the rate of six per cent. per annum ; £l,OOO
towards reducing premises and furniture account ;
£3,080 to be written off preliminary ex-
penses, and the remainder added to the reserve
fund, which will then amount to £15,413 9s. The
report was adopted.

Two O'CLOCK.
The Liverpool cottoti market to-day opened
quiet, but steady ; sales about 5,000 bales.
The Three per Cent. Rentes opened to-day, at
Paris, at 69f. 75e., being Yc. lower than on Satur-
day.
The Market for the English Funds remains in
a very quiescent state. Attention is directed to the
approaching settlement, and in the meantime
speculation is very much curtailed. Consols, how-
ever, are 924 : for money and the sth inst., and
92: I for the March account. The New Three per
Cents. and the Reduced are steady at 921 '15,-; Ex-
chequer Bills have improved to par and 4s. prem. ;
Bank Stock to 238 ; and India 5 per Cent. Loan
remains at 108 4.

The continued improvement in the Greek Bonds
has been the most prominent feature in the Foreign
Market, the latest price being 20 1 ; and the
Coupons, BQ. Spanish Passive have risen to 27 I,
and the Certificates to 10f. Most of the other
securities are firm.

The dealings in the Railway Share Market have
been limited, but prices have generally shown
an upward tendency. Lancashire and Yorkshire
and North Eastern (Berwick), improved 55.; Great
Northern and Great Western 10s.; Great Eastern,
South Eastern, and Metropolitan, 155.; and Lon-
don, Chatham, and Dover, £l.

In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings there
was no material variation as regards prices. South
Austrian and Lombardo Venetian realised 28} ;
East Indian, 105-1 ; and Great Western of Canada,
128 t.
Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares were
in limited favour, at steady rates. Ottoman Bank
improved to 351 ; Oriental Inland Steam declined
to 8 ; and Berlin Water works brought 61

On Wednesday the Redemptorist Fathers con
eluded their mission in Clonmel, on which occasion
a public meeting was held, over which the Mayor presided,
Alderman Hackett, J.P., remarking that it was his proper
place, as chief magistrate of the town. The address, which
was adopted, gave credit to the " missioners" for having
"rescued many from the abyss of sin and placed them on
the road to heaven; for having planted the love of God and
man in their hearts, and thereby reconciled them to the
Omnipotent." On the departure of the " missioners"
the whole population seemed to turn out to bid them fare-
well ; many were in tears, and some were so wild in their
enthusiasm
that they insisted on drawing the omnibus to
the railway station. Some adventurous youths clung to
the carriages when the train moved off. The Re-
demptorist Fathers have visited most of the town. in Ire-
kind. Their chief, the Rev. Mr., Harbison, remarked that
they had more of what are called the better classes" among
that hearers and penitents in Clonmel than in any other
place.
