MONEY and COM VIERCIAL_NEWS

- - -
CITY, THURSDAY EVENING.
The progress made in the formation of the new
Tory Administration has lost almost all its interest in
the City. The Funds have scarcely varied a fraction to-
clay. Is not this principally ascribed to the universality
of the feeling that Sir Robert Peel will not be enabled
long to hold the reins of power ? We are disposed to
think so, and therefore we do not anticipate that there
will be any fall of moment in the value of the Funds.
Consols for Account closed this afternoon at 90-1-, and
for Money at 89-a. India Bonds were flat at 2 premium;
but Exchequer Bills realised 14 to 16 premium, freely.
In the Foreign Market there, was a brisk demand for
Spanish Stock this afternoon at an advance to 221 1. In

tion, the prices closing within a fraction of those de-
manded in the early part of the day.
The Railway Share Market closed heavily this after-
, noon ; but the prices were not materially different from
those paid yesterday.
