MONEY MARKET.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

• The Bank of England return completed to the
4th of June exhibits a large falling off in the stock
of bullion, consequent upon the late demand for ex-
portation. The reserve of notes has also been largely
diminished, and the private deposits exhibit a re.
duction of nearly a million and a half sterling. The
other items of the balance sheet show no important
alterations ; subjoined are the particulars :-

Money continues plentiful in the general dis-
count market, and also at the Stock Exchange.
The current demands are only sufficient to employ
a moderate proportion of the available balances,
and under these circumstances the banks and private
houses freely negotiate bills at the prevailing quo-
tations. The appearance of the Bank of England
return, published yesterday, although in some
respects unfavourable, has not attracted much at-
tention, because the reduction of bullion was
generally anticipated through the large with-
drawals which were known to have taken
place on account of the Turkish and Russian
loans. It is calculated that the net sum of the
Moorish, Turkish, Egyptian, and Russian operations
introduced since the commencement of the year, is
about £12,000,000, of which £5,000,000 has already
been absorbed. The transmission of the balance
may assist in creating a little more firmness in the
quotations, but the remittances will be made at
intervals, and, in the meantime, large receipts may
be expected from Australia, A merica, iutl -vrem,
Indies, &c., which, at all events will partially re-
place the money that may be sent out of the country.
At the Bank of England yesterday the bullion
operations were not of an important character.
The Hansa, from New York, has brought
35,000
in specie.

The accounts relative to the crops in France are
'vary satisfactory, and a slight improvement is
reported in commercial operations. Merchants and
manufacturers continue to watch the course of events
on the other side of the Atlantic with considerable
anxiety, and the hope is indulged that some decisive
movement will shortly take place, which will lead
to the prospect of an early termination of the war,
when commerce throughout Europe would, of
course, receive an extraordinary impulse.
There was rather less activity in the Liverpool
Cotton Market yesterday, but prices were well
supported. The sales were about 6,000 bales.
Business in the Foreign and Colonial Produce
Market during the last few days has been dull,
owing to the absence of many of the dealers at
Epsom. In the private market, however, prices
generally have given way. Sugars have declined
about 6d. per cwt., while rice, tea, coffee, and
stitpetre has been nominally cheaper. Tallow has
slightly improved, the quotations for P.Y.C. being
465. per cwt. on the spot, and 48s. 6d. for last three
months' delivery.

Not the slightest increase of business can be re-
ported in the English Stock Market to-day, the
dealings for transfer and also on speculation being
very limited. The impending settlement of the
account is now beginning to engage attention. Con-
sols have been 92 to 92i for money and the 10th inst.
The New Threes and the Reduced are 91a i ; Ex-
chequer Bills, lie. prem. ; Bank Stock is 236; and
India 5 per Cent. Loan, 107-1 1.
A more buoyant tone has pervaded the Foreign
iarket, the principal movement having been in
ussian Scrip which advanced i and 18 prem.;
gyptian is firm at 1i prem.; Sardinian are 811;
panish 3 per Cents. 548 ; ditto Deferred 448 ; and
ditto Certificates 9-i i ; Turkish 6 per Cents. of 1854
are steady at 821 f ditto, 1858, 701 ; and the New
Scrip has improved to 29 38 prem.

Business in the Railway Share Market has con-
tinued exceedingly inactive, and the few bargains
entered into show no change of importance in
♦alues. Eastern Counties are steady at 561 ; Lan-
cashire and Yorkshire at 1071 9 ; Brighton at 122
Midlands at 1271 and 127. _ _ _

The Foreign and Colonial lines remained quiet
at about former rates. South Austrian and Lom-
bardo-Venetian are dealt in at 22i ; Great Luxem-
bourg, at 15; East Indian, at 1061 t; and Great
Indian Peninsula, 1041.
