ONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CI l'Y, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
There is no material alteration in the appearance
U. the money market, the inquiries being moderate
and the rates steady, although the tendency is Up-
Ward.

The advises from New York to the 10th inst.,
report the Money Market as being easier, and good
bills were readily taken at 6 per cent., although
many capitalists continue to hold back their means
in order to place them in United States Treasury
notes. bearing 6 per cent. interest. Gold had
further declined, and the exchange was rather
lower. Stocks and shares were depressed.
The accounts from the manufacturing districts
for the past week represent that business in some
departments has slightly improved. At Manchester
there has been a better inquiry for cloths and
yarns for the -India and China markets. The
woollen trade of Leeds, Bradford, and Hudders-
field, however, has shown no material change, the
chief inquiry having been for light fabrics for the
BPrlng. The hosiery and I.ce trades of Leicester
and• Nottingham have remained without material
alteration, while in Birmingham, Sheffield, and
Wolverhampton there has been mere activity, owing
to the preparations made for the intended festivi-
ties
consequent upon the marriage of the Prince of
Wales.

At Paris this morning, according to Neuter's
telegram,
French Rentes were 69f. 65c., 69f. 70c.,
65c--uneasiness still prevails, but there is less
excitement.

The ,narket for the English Funds continues
exceedingly depressed, s ,les being effected in con-
-IN-quence of the anxiety felt with regard to the
P. lish difficulty and the serious embarrassments to
which it may give rise. Speculators have seized
the opportunity to operate for a decline, and the
outstanding engagements are certainly larger than
they have been for a considerable period. Con-
sols are 92} 1 for money, and 921 tot the sth
