MONEY JJLIBKET AND CITY NEWS.
♦ '
CITY, Two O'CLOCK.

The Money Market remains in a quiet state,
owing to the moderate requirements for commercial
purposes, and the, absence of active speculative
adventure. No material alteration can yet be re•
ported in the rates, but the tendency appears
favourable, and a further decline in the minimum
is not considered improbable in the course of a few
Weeks.

The Silver Market has been rather firmer since
the arrival of the China letters, and it is expected
that the next Calcutta steamer will convey a large
remittance. About £30,000 in fine gold was taken
out of the Bank yesterday, but a sum of £B,OOO in
Russian gold was purchased. by that establishment.
The market for Public Securities remains in a
quiet state, and the few transactions which have
taken place to-day have not led to any material
alteration. At the same time, however, the
tendency of prices is unfavourable. Consols
being 94i 95 for money, and 95+, 1, for the account.
The New Threes and Reduced are steady, at 934 s ;
India New Loan at 106 i ; but the 5 per Cent.
Enfaced Paper is heavy, at 971 ; and Exchequer
Bills remain at 9s. to 1 le. prem. Bank Stock is
quoted 2294.
Foreign Securities have been dealt in to a
moderate extent, and prices exhibited a slight
upward tendency. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 76 to
77 ; ditto New Loan, 59 to 60; Spanish were
heavy at 48 ; Chilian were firm at 1021 ; Mexican
at 214 ; Russian 41 per Cents. at 971 ; and Dutch
4 per Cents. advanced to 1011

The Ocean Marine Instirance shares are 2-1, prem. ;
the Universals s prem., and the Thames and
Mersey 1 :1 prem. The shares of the Thessalian
Mining Company are 7,- .1 prem.

Business in the Liverpool cotton market yester-
day was rather more active, and prices were steady,
with the exception of inferior American, which was
a trifle lower. The sales were estimated at 8,000
bales.

to this day, are in round figures as under :

CRYSTAL PALACE.—The annual festival of the
metropolitan charity schools took place yesterday and
was attended with the most complete success, the
entertainment attracting an audience to Sydenham that
filled to overflow the great transcept and the gal-
leries commanding a view of the children. The con-
cert took place in the klandel Festival Orchestra, and
the vocalists numbered upwards of 4,000. The effect of a
concert by largo bodies of children is now so well known
that the .entertainment of yesterday needs no
general
arks beyond stating that the steadiness with re-
marks which the
choir .
sang was most remarkable, and that they obeyed
their conductor's baton in the most praiseworthy manner.
CAPSIZING OF A YACHT.—On. Tuesday afternoon,
shortly before 5 o'clock, an exciting scene occured on the
Thames, near Oil Battersea-bridge, owing to the upsetting
of the yacht President, which had been engaged in the
Ranelagh Yacht Match but a short time previously. It
appeared that at the conclusion of the match the owner of
the President, a gentleman named Gambadelli, took up his
wife and daughter, the latter about 12 years of age, and a
gentleman. The number of persons then in the vessel,
including two ship boys, amounted to six. The vessel
tacked about the river for some • ime, when Mr. Gambadelli,
at a short distance from the shore, endeavoured to reach
over for something on deck, having at the same time charge
-of the main sheet. The sheet becoming slackened, a gust
of wind mo nentarily seized it, and overturning the balance,
the sails became immersed. The occupants of the vessel
were instantly thrown from their seats, but fortunately fell
into the belly of the sail, and became immersed up to their
armpits. Mr. Garabadelli extricated himself, and striding
the stern of the yacht, he commanded the others to hold on
tightly. Several boats were at once Manned from the shore
and proceeded to the rescue. The daughter was first extri-
cated, but some difficulty was experienced with respect to
Mrs. Gambadelli, who was for a time entirely lost sight of
by the anxious spectators on shore. She had almost dis-
appeared, when her husband frantically seized her, and by
main strength held her until relieved by the attendant
boatmen.
Advices from Constantinople state that a con
cession for a railway from Constantinople to Adrianople,
