MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS

CITY (THIS DAY), TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Accounts received from Liverpool this morning state that
the Royal William steamer sailed yesterday. for New York.
She is elegantly fitted up, both fore and aft. She has on board
66 cabin passengers, and is not so deep in the water as last
voyage. It is expected she will perform the voyage in 14 days.
The rumour which prevailed on the Stock Exchange among
the speculators and jobbers that there would be an increase in
the rate of discount at the Bank of England, has not been
realized. Yesterday the proprietors of Bank Stock held a
general Court-day for the purpose of declaring a dividend,
and 4 per cent. for the half year, as usual, was declared, and no
❑otice taken of an increase in the rate of discount.

Accounts have been received from Demerara of the sth ult.,
which are of a favourable nature.

THE FUNDS.

In the course of yesterday afternoon the Consol Market re-
sumed a firm appearance, and Consols closed at 93.1 for

We have received the Journal of Antwerp of yesterday's
date. It states, in an article from the Handelsblad, dated
four o'clock in the afternoon, the Bourse—" That the last
news received from the Hague announces that the proposi-
tions of the Conference are of such a nature as cannot be
taken into consideration by our Government. This has caused
extensive sales to be effected in our national funds—above all,
in the Active Debt and Billets de Chance."

Mail arrived yesterday; Three per Cents., 53 1-16th ; Five
per Cents., 101 9 16th.
