XONEY MARKET

AND
COMIIIERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Affairs in the discount market are now assuming
a quieter appearance, and the mercantile public
generally are beginning to appreciate the policy
Which guided the Bank of England directors yes-
terday
to advance their rate, and thus prevent any
hereafter commotion arising from too large a flow
of gold to the Continent. The increase in the de-
eland for accommodation to-day results from the
bills due tomorrow, the 4th of the month. For a
short time, therefore, till' these arrangements are
Concluded, the rate out of doors may be expected
to be kept near to the level of the official minimum.
The charge to-day for first-class three months' bills
i 8 41 to 5 per cent.
About £40,000 in bar gold, and £127,000 sove-
reigns, were withdrawn from the Bank yesterday
for exportation.
In the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets,
operations are chiefly confined to sugar, which is in
very active demand, at firm, and in some instances
even higher prices. Coffee is rather quiet, and
although very few enquiries are experienced for
rice, high rates prevail. Ruin, saltpetre, tea, and
tallow are moderately dealt in upon former terms,

Two O'CLOCK.
The prices of nearly all the English Stocks are
much lower this morning, and the Funds have also
declined k. This heaviness is of course attributable
to the rise in the rate of discount, which for a time
must check much of the speculation which lately
prevailed. Consols are 921 for money and account.
The New Threes and Reduced Annuities have fallen
to 91k ; Exchequer Bills are now 2s. dis. to ls.
prem. ; Bank Stock is stead at 234; India Sock is
likewise firm at 224 226 ;• than 5 per Cent. Loan, at
1091 I; and the 4 per Cent. ditto, 1006 ; and the
Bonds are 18s. prem.
A general downward movement has taken place
in the value of the principal Foreign Stocks, and
there is not much business in progress. Turkish

66 67.

In the Railway Share market a decline has also
taken place in the chief shares, and there is a
general curtailment of business. The Foreign and
Colonial lines are also dull and depressed, and Mis-
cellaneous shares continue steady.
