CITY NEWS---THIS DAY.

CITY, o'ClocK.
There is more demand forTWELVE money `to-day, and
tho rates are decidedly firmer, 3 per cent. now
being the minimum quotation in The general market
as well as at the Bank of England. The with-
drawals of gold for shipment to the Continent,
and the increased scale of silver remittances to
India induce caution, and capitalists, seeing the
probability of dearer money, if the efflux should
be continued as at present, are naturally induced
to ask full terms for the business they negotiate.
There is an increase of £2,265 in the traffic receipts
of the South-E Astern Railway, but a decrease of
£1,419 on the Brigh,con for the past week.
The_transaetio.:is in most descriptions of Foreign
and Colonial Produce during the last few days have
been very restricted, and prices generally have
tended downwards. There has not been muon in-
quiry for tea or sugar, although lower rates have
been accepted. A steady demand has been experi-
enced for colonial coffee, and prices have been well
supported. Rum has been firm, but rice, spices,
and saltpetre have remained dull, and in most in-
stances rather cheaper.
