MONEY MARKET.

CITY NEWS:-THIS DAY.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The, demand for discount accommodation is
steadily maintained in the general market, and as
very little business is negotiated there under 2 per
cent., a moderate supply of bills is taken to the
Bank of England. Notwithstanding the abundance
of floating capital now awaiting employment, and
the prospect of trade remaining in a quiescent state
during a few days, there is still an impression in
some quarters that the mart et will soon exhibit
greater firmness, and this no doubt exercises some
influence upon bankers and others, who conse-
quently wish full terms for all the securities they
negotiate.
The Europa, from America, has brought £54,000

in specie.
The Delta, which left to-day with the Bombay
mail, conveyed £429,450 in specie.
The traffic receipts of the Ottoman Railway for
the week ending the 12th inst., were £341 against
£241 last year.

The accounts from the manufacturing districts
during the past week were of a less satisfactory
character. Business at Manchester remained very
inactive, but prices of both cloths and yards tended
upwards. At Leeds, Bradford, Halifax, and Hud-
dersfield, the woollen trade generally remained
quiet, without material alteration in prices. The
hosiery and lace trades of Leicester and Notting-
ham have been dull ; but at Birmingham, Sheffield,
Wolverhampton, and its immediate neighbourhood
there have been symptoms of improvement in the
demand for articles for hone use.

Two O'CLOCK.
The Liverpool cotton market today was dull,
and sales about 1,500 bales.

The Paris Three per Cent. Rentes opened this
morning at 71f. 10c., but declined to 71f. 05c.,
being per cent. lower than on Saturday.
Increased heaviness has been perceptible in the
market for Public Securities to-day, and although
the transactions have been extremely limited, they
have resulted in a further decline of fully I per
cent., and the market generally presents a very de-
pressed appearance. Consols, for money and the
6th proximo, are 931. The New Threes and the
Reduced have declined to 91-st, ; Thirty Years
Annuities are 151; and India 5 per Cent. Loan is
heavy at 1094 1.
A very heavy:feeling has also prevailed in the
Foreign Market. Turkish 6 per Cents., 1854, are
nominally 82 83; ditto, 1858, are 681 69; ditto
Scrip, 1 die. toe prem.; Mexican have declined to
321 33 ; Egyptian, to 891 I; ditto Scrip
(second issue) to 41 dis.; Spanish Passive
to 211 4 ; ditto Certificates to 91 ; and Italian to
711 72 ; Portuguese, 471 ; ditto New Scrip, 21
pr em. ; Russian 5 per Cents., 951; and the New
Scrip, -a prem. The Turkish Consolides have dropped
to 371 1•

The operations in the Railway Share Market
continued very restricted, and the few bargains
recorded were mostly at a further decline in prices.
South-Westerns, Midlands, and South-Easterns re-
ceded ss; London and Brighton, and Great
Westerns, 10s. ; and Great Northern A Stock, £l.

The Foreign and Colonial undertakings were
dull, without, however, any material change in
prices. Great Luxembourg realise 14-1 ; Bahia
and San Francisco 19 to 191 ; Paris and Lyons 474;
and Sambre and Meuse 91 ; Grand Trunk of
Canada have declined to 211 ; and Great Western
of Canada declined to 12 and 121. Punjaubs have
advanced to 103.

Joint-Stock Bank Shares were actively dealt in,
but prices in several instances are a shade flatter.
London and Brazilian receded to 161 ; London and
South African to 22 ; Ottoman Bank to 264 ; and
Union of Ireland to 61.

In the Miscellaneous Share Market National
Discount Company Shares remain steady at 7,7,-
Peninsular and Oriental Steam declined to 74;
and Royal Mail Steam improved to 561.
