SOLEM QUIS DICERE FALSUJI .4UDE-17' ?

• LONDON,
TULSDAT EVENING, DECEMBER 13, 1325.

The Market opened under a very gloomy
aspect this morning, the stoppage' of Messrs.
WILLIAMS, the Bankers, being generally known
in the City before ten o'clock. This firm is the
agent of fourteen country banks, which ne-
cessarily must be inconvenienced by an event
so aggravating in the present distressing moment.
It has been rumoured in the course of the morn-
ing, that the resources of these Gentlemen will
enable them to resume their business in a very
few days, and we shall feel extreme gratifica-
tion to receive a confirmation of this rumour,
which the respectability of this house ren-
ders the universal wish of all to whom they are
known. About 11 o'clock, the market was sti-
mulated by a report of the nank being about to re-
turn to the late system of advancing on deposits of
stock. W have, however, learnt the result of a
special application on this paint, to which a nega-
tive has been given on the part of the Direc-
tors. It is, indeed, probable, that upon any

extraordinary emergency relief might be
afforded to any concern of magnitude, the
suspension of which would involve a large
number of individuals in the consequences.
The amount of bills presented yesterday at
the Bank of England for discount was report-
ed to have been little short of six millions
sterling. Of these the Bank discounted to the
amount of 1,200,000. The tender of so enormous
an amount of paper on Monday, which is usually
a slack day in this respect, will serve to
shew that the. pressure on the Money Market is
absolutely without precedent. Loans on Ex-
chequer Bills, yesterday,—by purchases for
money, and re-sale for delivery on Wednesday,—
a rate of interest equal to 73 per cent. per annum
was.given. Those who had the good fortune to
possess means, bought Consols at 79 for Bank
notes, and re-sold at 821 for. account, thus
clearing 27 per cent. on the capital.—Such
was the intensity of • pressure in the house,
that 251. was given as a bonus to receive bank-
notes for a sale of 5,000 Consols instead 'of a
draft, which must be passed through the clearing
house—a mere saving of four hours. Exchequer
Bills yesterday were depressed in a ratio beyond
any other security. The price list does not quote
them at a discount of more than sixty
Bargains we are, however, assured were madd
even at 68. Towards the close. of the ilarketi
Brokers, who are in the habit of being em-
ployed by the Bank of England, came for-
, ward and purchased freely, which reduced
the rate of discount to thirty-five shillings.
' From the particular individuals employed it was
inferred that the Bank was taking this measure.
to relieve the market. If such were the fact
it presents a remarkable instance of time fluc-
tuation in the value of these 'securities. In
April last the Bank were sellers of Exchequer
Bills at sixty-seven shillings Premium --in
Decem-
ber, buyers,-at 60 Discount. Consols at 1 o'clock
this day were quoted 83-H. Immense sums were
sent off last night, both in specie and Bank
notes to the country, and it is hoped that

these thnoly supplies

of yesterday and this day will naturally crea.P.
