MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. '
CITY, MONDAY EVENING.
The Money Market was easier in The course of the
(lay, and, favoured by this circumstance, as well as the
dullness of trade, which leaves very little opening for
the profitable employment of capital, the Funds im-
proved again to-day, bargains having been effected upon
s.veral occasions at a rise of 4 to 1 per cent., both upon
the Three per Cents. and the heavy Stocks. Consols for
present transfer were marked 88* to 891, closing at 89*
sell( rs ; and for Account they were 891 to g, the latest
bargains being at 89* to 1. East India Bonds were par
to 2s. premium ; the New Three-and-a-Half per Cents.
touched 99 to 994, and the Three per Cent. Annuities
884. Bank Stock was more dealt in at 1654 to 1641,
and India Stock was steady at 247. Exchequer Bills
ranged from 10s. to 12s. premium.
The Foreign Market does not yet call for any par-
' titular comment, the transactions being on a moderate
scale, and more independent of mere jobbing. Spanish
Active Bonds were a shade better, viz., 21i to 21* ; Por-
tuguese New Five per Cents. were at 29* ; and Three per
Cents. at 18. Mexican Stock was steady at ; Co-
lumbian at 19 to I ; Chilian ranged from 681 to 69* ;
Brazilian was at 571 ; French Three per Cents. im-
proved to 80 ; Belgian Bonds were steady at 1001 ; and
Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 51a to 514.
Shares generally supported the advance obtained at
the close of last week, though the market was scarcely
so active. Great Western brought 154 ; the New 8 to 71 ;
the Fifths 44 ; the Birmingham 67 ; the Quarter 161 ;
the South Western 14*, and the York and North Mid-
land 32 to 33 prem. the Brighton were 114 to 12 ; the
Greenwich New 24; the Midland Counties • 16, and the
Birmingham and Gloucester 40 discount. Union Bank of
Australia Shares were 41 premium.

land New Shares, 314.
We are expecting a later arrival from America, the
intelligence now most heeded being that which relates
to commercial affairs, which, at the date of our last ad-
vices, were rather improving. Upon the continuance of
this improvement appears to depend almost entirely any
relief that may be given to our great branches of ma-
nufacture.
The fine weather has had a good effect on the price of

MEETING TO CONGRATULATE
MR. BRONTERRE O'BRIEN ON HIS RE"
LEASE FROM PRISON.
The friends and admirers of Mr. Bronterre O'Brien
held a public meeting, yesterday evening, at the Crown
and Anchor Tavern, for the purpose of congratulating
him on his release from Lancaster gaol, where he had
been imprisoned for eighteen months. The large room
in the Crown and Anchor was filled on the occasion. in
every part,: by a crowd of very respectably dressed la-
bourers and mechanics.
Mr. O'Brien, on entering the room, was received with
vehement and repeated cheer:.
The Cuainmax stated the objects for which the work-
ing men of London had met that evening.
Mr. SPUR then came forward to propose the first re-
solution. He wished to propose to them that honour
should be paid where honour was due. lie would not
detain the meeting by any lengthened observation of
his, upon an occasion when their principal object was to
listen to the distinguished advocate of their cause, Mr.
O'Brien.—(Cheers.) The resolution placed in his hands
was to this effect, "That the imprisonment of John
James Bronterre O'Brien, Esq., for his benevolent exer-
tions in behalf of the poor, was unjust and inhuman."
Mr. SCOTT seconded the resolution, which was put and
carried unanimously, amidst loud cheers.
Mr. O'BRIEN then came forward to address the meet-
ing amidst loud cheers. He would begin with them as
he had begun with his old friends in Manchester, by
telling them he was glad to see them.—(Cheers and
laughter.) He felt glad, first because they seemed glad
to see him ; next, because by seeing them proved to him
that he was not in a worse place ; and, finally, because
after having for eighteen months seen nothing but
thieves and smashers, it was gratifying to him
to look upon the faces of honest men.—(Cheers.)
He was happy to tell them that he had everywhere ob-
served an improved feeling among the friends of the
cause. There was less of rashness—less of exaggerated
confidence than before ; but there was to be found every-
where among the advocates of popular freedom a fixed,
unalterable determination to obtain their rights.
(Cheers.) The Chartism now abroad was as superior to
the Chartism of 1839 and 1840, as the light of thy sun
was to that of the moon. . It repudiated alike moral-
force delusion, and physical-force madness. Mr. O'Brien
after a lengthened speech, for which we cannot find
room, then proceeded to advert to the'distress now pre-
valent in the manufacturing towns, and concluded
amidst loud and prolonged cheers, stating that a change
.n our legislative system was the only means by which
those evils could be remedied or removed.
The meeting separated at a late hour.
