MONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The money market presents no new feature of
interest. There is a general belief that a further
large withdrawal of gold will take place to-day at
the Bank, and the brokers, who expect an advance
will be made to-morrow in the Bank rate, are dis-
inclined to negotiate bills at current rates.
At the bullion department of the Bank of Eng-
land yesterday afternoon, there was a further with-
drawal of £75,000.

The Committee of the Stock Exchange, Liver-
pool, have granted a special settlement to the Bir-
kenhead Amalgamated Brewery Company to pass
through current accounts (Dec. 28), and also offi-
cial quotation.

Notice has been given that the interest payable
by the contractors on the shares and scrip of the
East London Railway Company, for the half year
ending Dec. 28 inst., will be paid .on and after
Jan. 5. The interest warrants will be forwarded
to the registered proprietors, but the holders of
scrip will be required to lodge their certificates, ac-
companied by receipts for payments thereon, with
the registrar, at the offices of the company, three
clear days prior to payment.
The directors of the St. John del Rey Mining
Company (Limited) have received, per Guienne,
the following report, dated Morro Velho, Nov. 17 :
Produce for October, 48,509 oitavas ; yield, do.,
9,541 per ton; cost for d0.,9 £,935 ; profit for do.,
£8,769 ; produce, 12 days (including two holidays
