MONEY MARKET

AND
COSIIVIERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market continues to present a very
quiet appearance, and although very few bills have
been offered for negotiation, brokers have been un-
willing to negotiate business under the Bank mini-
mum of 6 per cent. This firmness is owing to the
scarcity of floating capital at, the command of
bankers.
The return from the Bank of France is very
favourable. The bullion has been increased £540,000,
While a reduction has been made of £700,000 in the
bills discounted, of £50,000 in the advances on
stock, of £152,000 in the notes in circulation, and
of £385,000 in the current accounts.
It will be seen by the subjoined analysis that the
position of the Bank of England has been much
strengthened during the past week :

Two o'CLoca.

The English Stock Market opened with a very
buoyant aspect, and a rise of f per cent. has been
recorded in the price of Consols, which are now 89f
for money, and 88f I, less the dividend, for the
account. The easier state of the Money Market,
both here and on the continent, and the satisfactory
returns from the Banks of England and France, are
causing a most confident feeling, and inducing an
expansion of trade. A corresponding rise has taken
place in the New Threes and Reduced Annuities ;
Exchequer Bills show little alteration, and India

Bank Stock at 248 250.
