MONEY MARKET

AN D

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

In the general discount market there is a rather
large supply of money. The demand for discount
accommodation is moderately active, and 3i 4 per
Cent. are the lowest rates.

The Committee of the Stock Exchange have ap-
pointed the following special settling days :—Tues-
day, the 22d of August, Overend, Gurney, and Co.
(Limited), to be marked ; and the Dublin Trunk
Connecting Railway Company, to be marked in the
twice-a-week list. Wednesday, the 23d of August,
London-bridge Land Company (Limited), to be
marked in the twice-A-week list.

In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon
there was no material alteration.

The specie movement during the past week has
been on a rather limited scale. The imports have
amounted to about £416,582, while the exports have
been to the extent of £145,680.
It is understood that about £200,000 in gold has
recently been purchased in the market for exporta-
tion to Spain, and that it is expected to be forwarded
in a few days to its destination. In the silver mar-
ket a portion of the dollars by the last West India
packet has been sold at ss. Olb. per ounce, showing
no alteration compared with the price previously
realised. The steamers which leave Marseilles to-
day for the East, and also the packet from Southamp-
ton on the 20th, will take out about £400,000 in sil-
ver for India and China.

Two O'CLOCK.

Consols for money are 894 /, and for the account,
89i 90. The New Threes and Reduced Annui-
ties are 894 ; Exchequer Bills, par to ls. prem. ;
India 5 per Cents, 98! 991 ; and Bank of England
Stock, 248 249 f.

slight improvement. Turkish Consolides are 483
491; Mexcan, 23 ; ditto New, 22i- ; Greek, 20}
21 ; Spanish Passive, 29- *; the Certificates, 14i i ;
Italian, 631 64 ; and the Confederate Loan, 6 8.
In the Railway Share Market the operations have
beeen moderately active, and in several instances
prices have shown increased firmness. Metropoli-
tan have improved £1 10s., Great Northern 10s.,
and Lancashire and Yorkshire„ North Western,
and North Eastern Berwick each ss. ; South East-
ern, however, have declined ss, and Great Western
and Midlands each 10s.

The Foreign and Colonial lines continue dull,
and without any material change in values.

dealt in at 10 ; London and Westminster at 96 ;
