moyEr .31A_R.A.-ET AND CITY NEWS.

CITY, Two o'CLocK.

The inquiries for discount accommodation con-
tinue limited, and owing to the abundant supplies
of money the rates still rule as low as 21 per cent.
About £40,000, in gold was taken into the Bank
of England yesterday.
A large amount of specie will be taken out to-
morrow by the Eilora for Bombay, viz., £300,850,
chiefly in silvor.
The Foreign Exchanges, yesterday afternoon,
were again rather lower.

A dividend of 7 per cent. for the past half-year
has been announced by the directors of the Union
Bank of Australia.

Dock Company the report was adopted, and a divi
dend at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum declared.

There was less excitement in the Liverpool
Cotton Market yesterday, but a fair amount of busi-
ness was transacted at full rates. The sales were
12,000 bales.
There has been a quiet market for Public Securi-
ties to-day, and the tendency of prices has been
rather unfavourable, although the actual variation
has been unimportant, Consols being 931-1 for
Money, and the 6th proximo. The New Threes and
the Reduced are steady at 931 ; Exchequer Bills,
June, have risen to 21s. and 245. prem. ; Bank
Stock remain at 238 and 240; and India 5 per
Cent. is 105'4, 1061.

Foreign Market, and no material alteration has
occurred in prices. Turkish 6 per Cents, are 81
to 81*; ditto, 1858, 711 72 ; Mexican are steady at
281 d; Italian at 631 ; and Venezuelan at 231.
Sardinian have receded to 78. Spanish are firmer
at oil ; and the Deferred remain at 42.

In the Railway Share Market a further slight
decline has prevailed in prices, owing to a prepon-
derance of sales. Midlands and South Easterns
have declined ss. ; Great Northern, Lancashire
and Yorkshire, and North Eastern (Berwick) 10s. ;
and Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, £l. Great
Western, however, have improved 53., South
