MONEY MARKET

eN t,

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market continues easy, but there is
a little more business in progress. Th© rates are
3, and 3i per cent for the best bills, and the pro-
spect is more favourable.

The following remarks respecting the precious
metals are from the circular of Messrs. W. C. Sillar
and Co. The bullion market has not expe-
rienced much change during the past week, though
a fair amount of business has been transacted, and
prices have not altered materially. Imports—
These have been about £200,000, being
considerably below the average. The bulk
of this is in gold from Australia, via India,
per Ripon. Exports—These amount to over
£448,000, being about the weekly average, and con-
sist principally of £248,000 per Cid, to Spain, in
gold ; £107,000 per Ceylon, to India and China,
111 Silver ; and about £50,000 to France. Gold—
The demand for export has continued, but has
been fully supplied out of the recent arrivals.
At the Bank of England £16,000 in so-
vereigns has been withdrawn, and on the other
hand £44,000 in bars has been sent in. Silver—
Operations have not been on a very extensive scale,
and the market is not active ; the supply, however,
Is limited, and prices are well maintained. Mexican
dollars remain unchanged, and the price nominal.
Exchange on India shows no alteration. The
amount of Government bills to be tendered for on
the 6th proximo is £250,000, of which £lOO,OOO
will be drawn on Bombay.

Two o'CLocK.

At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to
Reuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes were
68f. 65c. Firm and animated.
The English Stock Market has been very in-
active, and prices, although showing no important
alteration, are very flat. Consols are 89i -1 for
money, and 891 a for the account. The New
Threes and Reduced Annuities are 891 1 ; Exche-
quer Bills 35. dis. ; India 5 per Cents. 1051 ; and
ditto 4 per Cents. 9811- 99.

Foreign stocks have not been steadily maintained,
and prices, in a few instances, have fractionally re-
ceded. Turkish Consolides are 48+ 8 ; Mexican,
ex all, 23+ 8 ; the New Loan, 22+ I ; Greek Bonds,
20+ ; Spanish Passive, 291 ; Certificates are 14 I;
Italian, 64 4 ; and the Confederate Loan, 6 8.
The American Market is also not very firm, and
prices show a heavy tendency. United States 5-20
Bonds are 68+ 69+ ; Erie Shares, 52+ 53 ; and
Illinois shares, 77+ 781.
Business in the Railway Share Market has been
moderately active, and prices have shown a firmer
tone. London and Brighton have advanced 10s.,
South Western 55., and Midland ss. ; while Great
Eastern, Great Northern A Stock, and South
Eastern have declined ss. ; and Metropolitan 10s.
The Foreign and Colonial lines continue at about
Previous rates.

Bank, at 511 521 ; Standard of British South
Africa, at 151 16 ; Joint Stock Discount, at 81 1;
