CITY, TwELVE O'CLOCK.
The Bank of England directors have not, at their
usual Weekly meeting this morning, considered it
necessary to make any alteration for the rresent in
the official minimum. In the open market the de-
mand .for accommodation has been moderate, and
the brokers have again negotiated the best short-
dated paper at 34 and 3 a per cent.
In the bullion office of the Bank of England yes-
terday afternoon the operations consisted of an influx
of £16,000 in bar gold, and 60,000 sovereigns from
Portugal.

The market for English Stocks to-day has shown
a renewed tendency to improvement. More confi-
dence now prevails respecting some mercantile
houses of high standing, and, instead of sales as
yesterday, several investments on the part of the
public have been made. Consols have advanced
about 1 per cent., the quotations for money being
904 -3, and for the account 91 1.

earlier hours of business. Turkish Consolides have
risen to 54/ 55i ; Mexican ex all have improved to
271 s ; and the New Loan to 261 1 ; Greek are
211 1 ; Spanish Passive, however, have receded to
31/ 321 ; and the Certificates are 171 e ; Italian
have declined to 641 4 ; but the New Scrip has
advanced to 3.1 31 dis. The Confederate Loan
remains after slight fluctuation at 32 33.
In the Railway Share Market there has been only
a moderate amount of business transacted, and
prices have not varied to any important extent.
London, Chatham and Dover have declined £l, and
Midland 55., while Lancashire and Yorkshire, North
Western, and North Eastern (Berwick), have each
improved ss.

The Foreign and Colonial lines are without ma-
terial alteration in values.
Bank and Miscellaneous Shares are quiet, and
generally sustain former values. Affiance are dealt
in at 33i s ; London and County, at 74i ; Lon-
don Joint Stock, at 48+ ; and City of Milan Im-
provements, 11
