CITY NEWS---THIS DAY .

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Bank of England return, completed to the
Ist October, exhibits some rather unfavourable
changes. There is an important diminution in the
stock of bullion, and the reserve of notes has been
trenched upon to a large extent. The other secu-
rities, owing to the increased demand for money,
have been augmented, while the public and private
balances have been materially reduced. The
various items and the changes they present are
shown in the subjoined table :

Business in the general discount market continues
active, the supply of bills brought forward each day
being considerable. The demand is now stimu-
lated by the necessary preparations for to-morrow,
the 4th of the month, and in the course of a few
days a quieter state of affairs/is likely to be expe-
rienced, because the requirements of the mercantile
classes are moderate, and the speeie movement still
shows a surplus of imports. The rates remain with-
out any change of importance, 2 per cent. being the
quotation for first-class bills, and a fraction less is
accepted for paper approaching maturity.
During the last few days there has not been
much animation in the Foreign and Colonial Pro-
duce Markets. Tea, at public sales, remained
without change, while sugars, in some instances,
have been a little cheaper. Coffee has continued
in good demand, at full rates, and fruit and spices
are in more request at about former values. The
Tallow Market has exhibited more activity, and
prices have tended upwards for both present and
forward delivery.

Two O'CLOCK.

for the English funds, which have continued very
dull, Consols are 93f for money and the Bth inst.,

vian Scrip is 11 dis.; Portuguese ditto, 2at prem.;

improved about 55,; and Great Northern A Stock,

British declined 55., and Great Northerns, 10s.

The Frankfort advices mention that the failure of
Messrs. Liendheim, of Vienna, has been followed by the
stoppage of the houso of Anton Oswald, at Prague, with
liabilities for £BO,OOO. These events caused a great scarcity
of money on the Vienna Bourse, as large remittances had
to be made to the provincial towns and to the branchbanks
to support the traders whose credit was likely to be impaired
b
b. them. Hence bills on London were freely sold, this
xIF the most immediate resource, and the exchange ac-
cordinglyv declined to a quotation lower than at any pre-
-4v48 tin as during the past two years.
