3.IONEY NARK _EY AND CITY IVRWS.

CITY, Two o'CLocx.

During the last few days there has been only
a limited amount of business transacted in the
Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets. Sugars
have been at steady rates, while for coffee, rice,
and fruit the transactions have been only for im-
mediate requirements. An extensive business has
been done in saltpetre, and prices have advanced
6d. to Is. per cent. Tallow has been dull, the
demand for consumption having considerably fallen
on; and few speculative dealings have taken place.
P.Y.C. on the spot is now quoted 605., and 60s. for
spring delivery.
A moderate amount of business was transacted
in the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, and
prices exhibited no alteration. The sales were
8,000 bales.
The Tyne has arrived from the Brazils with
£3,840 in specie.
Money continues plentiful, but an increased
demand having been created by the arrangements
for the bills which have to be liquidated to-day,
the 4th of the month, the market is a shade firmer.
There is very little difference between the terms
current out of doors and those required at the
Bank of England, It cannot be said, however,
that any material alteration has taken piece in the
condition of the market, although the downward
tendency of the rates has received a check by the
position of the American exchange, and the possi-
bility of gold being remitted to the United States,
notwithstanding the opinion expressed by well-
informed correspondents in New York, that any
Supplies that may have been sent will speedily
return to this country.
A,n improvement of 5 per cent. has taken place
in the Market for Public Securities to-day, and the
tendency is still very favourable, although the
transactions have not been numerous. Purchases,
however, have been effected partly on account of
the Court of Chancery, and Consols are 938 I for
money and the 6th inst., for Dee. theyare 94 to 941.
The New Threes are firmer at 919 21,-; the Reduced
at 9i9 2 ; the New 21 per Cents. at 78 ; India
Stock has improved to 225; ditto New Loan is
Steady at 1031; ditto 5 per Cent. Rupee Paper is
fiat at 96! ; but Exchequer Bills remain at ss. dis.
Business in the Foreign Stock Market continues
very quiet, but prices are firmer. Turkish 6 per
Cents. are 72! to 73! ; ditto New, 57! to 581.
Sardinian have improved to 841 ex div. ; Spanish
to 50i ; Portuguese to 4611; and Peruvian 3 per
Cents. to 731.
The half-yearly meeting of the proprietors of
the African Steamship Company has been held
to-day, when, after a short discussion and a few
remarks upon the disposal of the Hope, the report
was :adopted, and a dividend of Is. per share at
the rate of 7 per cent. per annum was declared.
The dealings in the Railway Share Market have
been limited, and prices have shown rather less
firmness in one or two instances. Great Northern
have declined 155.; Midland, 55.; and South
Eastern, 10s. ; Caledonian and Great Western have
improved ss. ; and Lancashire and Yorkshire, 10s.
to 15s.
The Foreign lines have remained very inactive
without any material change in values.
In the Colonial Market Great Western of Canada
have declined 55., and Grand Trunk of Canada im-
proved ss. East Indian and Great Indian Penin-
sula realised former rates.
