COMMERO (AL INTELLIGENCE 4

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The condition of the Money Market is very favour-
ale, and there is little doubt that as soon as the
advances latterly made by the authorities have been
2'epaid, greater facilitieis will be afforded the mercan-
tile classes. The -dividends on different Govern-
ment stocks are :now in course of distribution, and
there effect is seen by the daily increasing supply
capital at the command of the discount houses.
The quotations to-day have receded 5i for first
class -
bills, and 5i per cent. for the best short-dated
Paper.

About 16,0001. in gold was taken into the Bank

panies :---Eastern Assam (Limited), for transac-
tions entered into on and after the 29th October

tered into on and after the 2d of September last, to

debenture of the Atlantic and Great Western Rai1.14,3r
.14,3r Companies for 2,800,0001. has been postponed
until the 17th proximo, in consequence of the
Stock Zxchange Committee having postponed the

Nothing has occurred tb-day in the market for
the English Funds to promote business or to induce
fluctuation.. The transactions have been of a very
moderate description, fully denoting a disinclination
on the part of speculators to commit themselves to
laxge engagements, although it appears to be very
generally thought that a rise in prices is likely to
take place. Meanwhile, Consols remain at 89/
for money, and at 901 I for the account. The New
Threes and Reduced Annuities are 89 4 ; India 5
per Cents., 10314 ; do. 4 per Cents., 97i ; and En
faced 5 per Cents., 102 i.
In the Foreign Market a fair amount of business
is in progress, but prices generally exhibit firmness.
Turkish 6 per Cents., 1862, are 701 ; do.
Consolides, 49f ; Mexican, 281 ; do. New, 264 ;

the Danubian, dis. par ; and the Montevidean,

In the Railway Share Market the dealings have
not been very animated. Lancashire and Yorkshire

Western have each declined 10s., Great Northern
A Stock, 153., and South Eastern, ss.
