ONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Business continues moderately active in the dis-
count circles, and there is no disposition on the
part of the bill brokers at present to relax their
terms. Towards the end of next week, after the
bills due on the 4th are liquidated, an easier feeling
is likely to prevail.
About £34,000 in gold was taken into the Bank
yesterday.

There was a slightly downward movement in
the foreign exchange yesterday afternoon.
Since Monday last the imports of specie amounted
to £854,800, and the exports to £345,100.

Two O'CLOCK.

At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter's
telegram, the French 3 per Cent. Rentes were
681, 80c.—firm.

During the early part of the day the English
Stock Market was a little flatter, but Consols at
the close were again quoted 93.2 1 for money, and
93-1 2 for the account. Very little business has
been negotiated, and the market has consequently
presented an extremely dull appearance. The
New Threes and Reduced Annuities are 931 4 ;
Exchequer Bills, is. dis. to 2s. prem.; India 5 per
Cents., 108 a Enfaced 5 per Cents., 107 ; do. 51
per Cents., 117.
Although the movements in the Foreign Market
have not been extensive, the tendency has been
favourable; business is rather active. Turkish 6
per Cents., 1858, are 721 73; Ditto 1862, 691 701;
Ditto Saimes are heavy at 521 ; Mexican have
risen to 391 4 ; Greek to 35-a 7, ; Ditto Coupons to
171-. ; Spanish Passives aro steady at 341 ?,-; Ditto
Certificates at 121 13; and the Confede-
rate Loan has risen to 27 25 discount.
Dealings have also taken place in Equador at 16/ ;
Egyptian, 1041 ; Granada 2 per Cents., 32 ; Peru-
vian 41 per Cents., 87 a ; and Venezuelan 6 per
Cents., 571, 58.

Business in the Railway Share Market hes been
inactive, and prices in some instances have slightly
receded. Midlands have declined 108.; and Great
Western, North Stafford, and South Eastern 15s.
Great Easterns, however, have improved 55., and
Lancashire and Yorkshire, and South Western 10s,
The Foreign and Colonial lines have remained
without any material variation.
Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have exhibited
increased firmness. Bank of Australia have im-
proved to 77 ; Bank of New Zealand to 11;
Imperial Ottoman to 184- 77, ; Scinde, Punjanb, and
Delhi to 5g ; Hudson Bay Company
shares have
advanced to 4; 5 ; International Financial to 101 ;
and General Credit to 31 4.
