CITY, Two O'CLOCK.
The demand for discount accommodation is rather
quieter, and the expectation of a decline in the rate
of discount induces many parties to delay the ne-
gotiation of the bills until after Thursday next. It
is presumed that an extensive falling off has taken
place in the "other securities" owingto a large num-
ber of bills which have lately arrived at maturity,and
the comparatively few applications now made to the
Bank authorities as superior facilities are offered
elsewhere. Besides the improvement which is
supposed to have occurred in this respect, there has
been an extraordinary influx of gold, which must
have increased the bullion to an important extent.
These circumstances have led to the impression
that the decline of 1 per cent. will take place in
the minimum on Thursday.
At the Public sales of indigo, which commenced
yesterday, being the second for the present year,
there was only a limited attendance of buyers, and
the chief demand was for the medium and shipping
qualities of Bengal, which realised an advance of
about 3d. per lb. on the rates previously current ;
low and inferior descriptions were inactive, and
were chiefly bought in. Madras qualities met with
more support, and brought previous values. Al
this sale 663 chests were sold and 361 withdrawn.
Rather less activity was exhibited in the Liver.
pool Cotton Market, yesterday, but prices were un-
altered. The sales were 7,000 bales. In the Rail-
way Share Market business was quiet, and quota-
tions were steady.
In the Foreign exchanges, yesterday afternoon,
no change of importance was apparent.
The steamer Tyne, which leaves to-day for the
Brazils, will take out £131,500, viz,, £114,150 in
gold, and £17,359 in silver,
About £220,000 in gold was received at the
Bank yesterday.
The Market for Public Securities is in rather an
unsettled state. A decided improvement took place
yesterday afternoon, but it has not been fully
maintained, the dealings to-day having led to a
partial reaction. Consols are now quoted 951 for
money, and 95 1 for June. The New Three per
Cents. and the Reduced are firmer at 931 d ; India
Stock has improved to 2211 ; ditto New remains
at 1064 4 ; and the Debentures are flatter at 964
97; Exchequer Bills are 4s. to 7s. prem.
A very moderate business is recorded in Foreign
Securities, and prices are rather depressed. Turkish
6 per Cents. are 77 to 771 ; ditto New, 61 to 611 ;
Russian 41 per Cents. have receded to 971 ; ditto 3
per Cents., to 654 ; Mexican, to 211 ; and Portu-
guese, to 454 ; Buenos Ayres 6 per Cents. remain
at 864 ; and the Deferred are firm at 25 ; Belgian
41 per Cents. have declined to 96.

The Ocean Marine Insurance Shares are 2 3
prem.; the Universal ditto, s prem.
The shares of the London and South African
Bank are 1 prem.
The dealings in the Railway Share Market
have been moderately active, and, with one or two
exceptions, prices have shown more firmness.
Manchester, Sheffield and Lincoln, Midland, North
Eastern (Berwick), and South Eastern, have ad-
vanced 55.; North Western, 10s.; and Oxford,
Worcester, and Wolverhampton, £l. Eastern
Counties and London and Blackwall declined 55.,
and Great Western 10s.

In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings the
variations have been unimportant—Lombardo-
Venetian are flat at 121 ; East Indian firm at 102 i
; Great Indian Peninsula at 1001 ; Grand
Trunk of Canada at 34.
Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares are
in good demand. London and Westminster have
advanced to GO I ; Provincial of Ireland to 84 85,
and Union of London are steady at 251 1 ; Penin-
sula and Oriental Steam are 80; Royal Mail Steam
60, and Crystal Palace 321.
