The

The e Letup nd for discount accommodation is quieter
as usu al, just after the monthly liquidation of com-
mercial accounts, but the market still retains a very
firm appearance, and it seems to be the general
opin' ion that the rates will shortly exhibit a fur-
ther upward tendency, through the transmission of
spec ;ie to Turkey and Egypt, on account of the
low as lately introduced, and other influences. The
cle .citations at present, however, are indicative of
a 1 Jundant supplies and moderate requirements, the
'dank of England minimum being 21 per cent.,
while accommodation is obtainable in other quar-
ters as low as 2 per cent.

CITY NEWS-THIS DAY.

Two O'CLocx.

There is a dull but stew:ly market for Public
Securities. Speculati( m is chiefly directed to
foreign investments, at, Consols are maintained at
931 s for money, an dat 93i 94 for the June ao•
count. Dealings h- Ave b' en officially recorded in

won siderubl,a animation has pervaded the Foreign
M ar'Ket, and prices Have experienced a further im-
p trivement. Spanish Certificates have been in
pecial re guest, dealings having taken place at
.111, the lilt est quotations being 101 t, showing a
slight reacti on. Italian 5 per Cents. have advanced

New Scrip a t 31 prem.

A noticeal t)le feature has been an improvement in
Russian Seri p, from u discount to 1 premium. It
appears that Messrs. Rothschild received applica-
tions for abv P.tl:ls,ooo,ooo,whereas the amount for
appropriat.,,Len represented £10,000,000. This result
has crea' tcm). some little surprise, owing to the
apathy she,wn on the Stock Exchange, and the
aPPare- at indifference with which the operation
was /iewe d by the public at large. It is under-
stoe'd, how ever, that the Continental Markets have
largely contributed to the tsuccess of the affair.
In the Railway Share Market, the dealings
have been moderately active, and a slight advance
has taken P 1 ace in the prices obtained for several
of the Pr- inr.sipal British undertakings. Caledonians
and Ea' stern Counties have improved ss. ; Great
Wester. tl9, Lancashire and Yorkshire, North Wes-
terns, and Midlands IN. North Eastern (Berwick)

A. destructive fire occurred two days since at
Cys Ding, near Lille, by which sixty-three houses, occupied
by ace avers, were reduced to ashes. As all the buildings
were thatched, the flames spread with the utmost rapidity,
and. all efforts to arrest their progress proved in vain.
Serteral persons were rather seriously injured, and 163 are
.left houseless and destitute, but the authorities have taken
actiive measures to relieve their most urgent wants. The
