MO N EYMARKET.

CITY NEWS, YESTERDAY.
The Liverpool cotton market is still advancing.
The sales to-day have increased to 14,000 bales.
The rise in Lombardo Venetian Railway shares
has been promoted by purchases to cover previous
speculative sales. Operators for the fall are not
unmindful of the approaching issue of new shares,
designed for the prosecution of the Southern Italian
extension lately conceded to this company. The
present quotation for the old shares of course in-
cludes the right to the new creation.

Captain Wilson, who re-captured the Emilie St.
Pierre from the hands of a Federal prize crew, paid
a visit to-day to the Jerusalem Coffee-house, and
was publicly introduced to the members by one of
the subscribers. The greeting given to him was of
a very hearty kind.

The Burman has arrived from China with
386,9001b5. of tea, and the Amatone with 385,4001b5.
An instalment of 15 per cunt. fell due today on
!he Egyptian Loan for £2,195,200 stock. The total
of stock paid up in full up to-day is £1,223,700,
A further withdrawal from the Bank of 300,000
sovereigns for Turkey, on account of the new loan,
took place to-day, while about 30,000 were sent in
from Ireland. An additional amount of Russian
half imperials was also taken from the Bank and
paid for in bar gold ; thus completing the exchange
of £600,000 recently arranged by Messrs. Roths-
child, the agents for the last Russian loan.
There was a very full demand for discount at the
Bank to-day and also in the open market, partly
attril;utable, it is believed, to a desire to provide
against a possible advance of the Bank rate to 31
per cent. on Thursday.
The last price from Paris this evening was 68f.
95c., showing renewed decline of an eighth.
In the foreign exchanges this afternoon the rates
generally were a shade higher than those of last
post.

An instalment of 15 per cent. on the Egyptian
loan was met to-day, making the total paid (irre-
spective of payments in full under discount) 45 per
cent. out of the contract price of 821. The amount
of stock paid up in full is now £1,223,700 out of
£2,195,200.
The mail steamer Mooltan will take on the 12th
inst. only £lO,OOO in silver and £1,500 in gold for
Bombay, and £5OO in gold for Aden.
In the exchanges the principal feature this
afternoon was again a movement in favour of
Austria. On Friday bills on Vienna were quoted I.
13,10 to 13.20, and to-day 13 to 13.06.

CITY NEWS---THIS DAY.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
There is still a very moderate demand for dis-
count accommodation, but the rates continue steady
with rather an upward tendency, owing to the large
importation of gold coin, and the prospect. should
the movement continue, of an early advance in the
minimum of the Bank of England.
On the Great Western Railway of Canada the
traffic receipts for the week ending the 30th ult.,
amounted to £8,606 against £6.953 last year.

London than in Paris and Hamburg.

Two O'CLOCK.
There is a decrease of about £4,000 in the traffic
returns of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway
for the past week.
Increased firmness is now reported in the general
• I:)iscount Market, and very few bills are negotiated
-under the minimum of the Bank of England.
At the half-yearly meeting of the African Steam
Ship Company, a dividend of 7s. per share, free of
income tax, for the half-year ending 30th April
last, being at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum on
the company's capital, was agreed to.
Towards the close of business yesterday after
:noon the market for English securities appeared
rather depressed, and a further slight decline en-
sued. This adverse movement resulted from sales
on speculative account, and the intimation that
further large supplies of gold coin had been taken
from the Bank of England, and increased depres-
sion has been perceptible to-day, because it is
thought that the minimum rate of discount will be
advanced to-morrow, at least I per cent. Consols
have therefore receded to 911 1 for money, and
911 g for the 10th proximo. The New Threes and

The operations in the Railway Share Market
have been limited, and chiefly connected with the
arrangements in progress for the liquidation, prices
in some instances showing a slight decline. Eastern

and South Eastern, ss. ; Great Western, North
