COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

Two O'CLOCK.
Extreme quietude has prevailed to-day in the
Market for the English Funds, and the other de-
partments of the Stock Exchange have presented a
corresponding degree of inactivity. Consols, how-
ever, have remained very firm, at 90i for money,
and 94 for the account.

In the Foreign Market business is not active, but
prices are well supported. Turkish 6 per Cents.
(1862) are 72 I ; do. Consolide,s, 494 e ; Mexican,
24g. ; do. New, 23a ; Greek, 21i a ; Spanish
Passive, 29/ ; do. Certificates, 141 ; Italian,
64k ; and the Confederate Loan, 7 9.
Business in the Railway Share Market has con-
tinued very dull, and prices, in some instances, are
a shade flatter. Great 'Western declined 55., Lan-
cashire and Yorkshire, and North Eastern (York)
10s., North Western Is., and Manchester, Sheffield,
and Lincoln, £1 10s.
The Foreign and Colonial lines remain without
change of importance.
Bank and Miscellaneous Shares are inactive, and
barely sustain former rates.

the principal new undertakings :--New Issue of
