CITY NEWS---THIS DAY.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Owing to the recent diminution in the with-
drawals of gold from the Bank of England, the
kazette return, published yesterday afternoon,
shows only a small reduction in the stock of bullion.
.al.llzl the other items of the account generally exhi-
bit a favourable tendency. The discount operations
of the establishment, for example, have materially
fallen off, because the commercial requirements
have continued very moderate, and the banks and
private firms, by making concessions, have been
enabled to secure nearly the whole •of the bills
brought forward for negotiation. The reserve of
notes, moreover, has been largely augmented. The
Particulars are shown in the following table :

The Seine, from the West Indies, has brought
£144,155, and the Bavaria, from New York,
£28,971, in specie.
_Business in the Foreign and Colonial Produce
Markets has been partially suspended, owing to the
foggy 'weather, and the public sales of most of the
Principal staples, viz., of sugar, coffee, rice,and wool,
announced to take place yesterday, were postponed
until to-day.
According to the latest advices from New York,
money Was rather easier, and loans at call were
obtainable at 5 per cent. Gold had further declined,
but it Was considered that the lowest point had
been 6
ionehed, and that henceforward a steady ad-
vance in price might be expected. There was not
much business in foreign exchange, the bankers
being the chief buyers, and they were not disposed
to sell at the prevailing rates. Stocks and shares
continued to improve.

Two O'CLOCK.

Tho Bank of France Return for the past
Month has been published to-day, and is unfavour-
able. There is a diminution in the stock of bullion
of £1,860,000, and of £284,400 on the Treasury
balances. The discounts have increased £3,445,000,
and the notes £1,620,000.

The Market for the English Fonds opened this
horning with a better appearance, and buyers came
forward whose operations led to an improvement of
18 per cent. The tendency of prices seemed to be
favourably influenced by the Bank of England
return showing scarcely any movement in
the bullion, an increase in the reserve of
notes, and a falling off in the demand for money.
Shortly afterwards, however, the particulars of the
Bank of France return for the past month became
414°wn, and as its features were unsatisfactory,
Prices once more gave way, and, at the latest mo-
ment, the market indicates heaviness. Consols, for
transfer have been 98 I, and are now 931 4 ; for
the account, less the dividend, they have been 9211,
and afterwards 92 s. The New Threes and the
Reduced remain at 911 92 ; Bank Stock has de-
clined to 235 and 2352 ; India ditto to 228; and
the 5 per Cent. Lean 1091 I.
The transactions in the Foreign market have
not been very extensive, but quotations have been
well supported. Greek Bonds have continued in
favour, and are 17k, while the Coupons are 72 8.

TREPRESIDENT ON THE ELECTIONS.—In a speech
at Cambridgeport, hlasaachusettst Senator Wilson said :
The other day I called upon the President with an earnest
Douglas Democrat of Massachusetts. The news had just
°eine to the President of these defeats of his supporters in
those States, and the President seemed bowed down, as I
have seen him bowed down when intelligence of the de-
feat of our armies in the field came upon him, and he said,
I confPss that I am grieved at the results of these elec-
tions. This intelligence will go to Europe ; it will be con-
strued there as a condemnation of the war ; it will go into
the land of the rebellion, and will encourage the leading re-
bels and nerve the arms of the rebel soldiers W
, many of fighting our
/lien in the field. It is true,' said the President '
these men elected profess to be 'Par Democrats ; but the re-
°°l4tions of their Conventions, the tone of their leading
Presses, and their general action will be construed every..
Where against the cause of our country.' "

-ZPondent of the Belfast Aews-Letter says :—" Mr. and
