CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The Money Market has been moderately active
to-day, 'but the commercial classes have been en-
Abled to obtain the accommodation they have re-
quired upon terms ranging from 54 per cent. The
floating balances, however, are sufficiently abun-
dant for all requirements, but the advances to .be
repaid, this week to the authorities for loans in anti-
eiPation of the dividends will, no doubt, stimulate
the enquiry, and assist to keep up the quotations.
Only 7,000/. in gold was taken into the Bank on
Saturday.

liance Bank will be holden at the London Tavern

rcaLisTic ENCOUNTER NEAR GLASGOW.—A
fight for 101. took place on Wednesday morning in
, field on the banks of the. Glasgow and Paisley Canal,
about three miles from the city, between a couple of pugi-
lists, one of whom belongs to Edinburgh, and the other to
13101,%inghaln. There were no stakes placed or ring made,
.„,.1," '4O spectators, who numbered upWards of 100—among
circle, in
.-"°1.4 were many of the Glasgow " fancy"—formed a wide
bruisers went to
'work • the centre of which the rival
eight 111 gallant style. The fight commenced shortly after
°clock, and' lasted one hour and ten minutes—the
tuntber of rounds fought during that time
being about
I°l'ty-two. At the close of the last round the Edinburgh
Plan. was unable to come up to the " scratch ;" therefore
the sponge was tossed np in token of defeat, and the Bir-
hiingham pug declared the victor. This result of the en-
counter was hardly expected, as the victor weighed nearly
a stone and a half less than the party defeated.--G/asgow
