MONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL iNTELLIGENtIit,

TwiLyn o'CLowic.
The Money Market has closed steadily, with a
slight increase of business.
At the Bank of Englind yesterday there were no
bullion operations of importance.
The amount reported to have arrived by the Mas-
silia, it appears, is £20,000, instead of £5,000, as at
first state].

The specie movement during the past week has
been on an extremely limited scale. The imports
have only amounted to about £80,604, including
£45,000 from New York by the Hibernia, £10,404
from the West Coast of Africa by the Maudengo,
£20,000 from Alexandria by the Dlassilia, and about
£5,000 in silver from the Continent. The exports
have been to the extent of £143,772, viz., £lO,OOO
in gold to St. Helena, by the Roman ; and there
have been remittances to the Continent through
private sources estimated at. £133,762.

The traffic receipts of the East Indian Railway
Company for the week ending 13th January last,
upon 1,131 miles open, were £42,333 ; and in the
corresponding period of last year, upon. 1,129 miles
open, they were £39,661.
Her Majesty's Customs have granted a first-class
sufferance to the new warehouses at Lucas and
Spencer's Wharf, Bermondsey Wall.
Vice-Chancellor Malins has appointed Mr. James
Cooper, of the firm of Johnstone, Cooper, Wintle,
and Evans, provisional official liquidator of the
Marseilles Extension Railway and Laud Company
(Limited).
Payment of the half-year's interest on the At-
lantic and St. Lawrence shares due on the 15th
inst. has been announced by the Grand Trunk
Railway of Canada.
It was announced yesterday that the bills of Mr.
Robert Tooth, in the Australian trade, had been
returned. The liabilities are stated to be about
£50,000, and a favourable liquidation is antici-
pated. The failure is attributed to his connection
with the London and Colonial Company, which is
now being wound up.
Another failure has occurred at Lloyds. Mr.
Robert Dewar, underwriter and insurance broker,
has been obliged to seek the indulgence of his cre-
ditors, and has placed his affairs in the hands of
Messrs. Nichols and Leatherdale, accountants.

A report bas been issued by the liquidator of the
Phosphate of Lime Company, together with a state-
ment of accounts to the 31st December last, and
a dividend has been declared at the rate of 10 per
cent. on the working of the last six mouths. This
Company has been reconstituted as the Sombrero
Phosphate Company (Limited), with a capital of
£lOO,OOO, in shares of £lO each fully paid up, and
the directors announce their intention of paying
quarterly dividends, the first of which will be at the
rate of 10 per cent. per annum, and be due April
next.

TWO O'CLOCK.

At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to
Renter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes opened
at 69f. 95c. Heavy—inanimate.
_ _

More firmness has been apparent to-day in the
market for Consols, the quotations being 901 for
transfer, and 904 for the April. The account
price, it will be observed, is lower than it was
yesterday owing to the abundance of money and the
improbability of any increase in the rates of discount.
The New Threes are 88 and Reduced Annuities
881 ; Exchequer Bills for March 13s. prem., and
fur June 15s. prem ; India 5 per Cents., 108 i ;
ditto Enfaced 5 per Cents., 1021 4 ; ditto 5i per
Cent.„ 107} • and ditto Bonds, 355. prem.

There has been little animation in the Foreign
Department of the Stock Exchange. Turkish 5 per
Cents. have improved to 29,--1 30 ; Italian a, to
63i ; Spanish Passive a, to 224 -a ; and the
Danubian Loan a, to 111 dis. ; but the Chilian
Scrip has declined a, to 14 a dis. ; while Mexican

Certificates at 141 a ; and Russian Scrip at 2i I
Prem.

In the. Railway Share Market the dealings have
been to a fair extent, and in a few instances prices
show more firmness. Great Eastern, Lancashire
and Yorkshire, and South-Eastern, have each
Improved I, Great Northern and Brighton each
and Great Western 1.

The Foreign and Colonial lines remain without
Material change in values.

74i I.

are steady, at 30 31; and the Consolidated Mort-
Cage Bonds have advanced 1, to 234 241.
Bank Shares are very dull. Chartered Mercantile

and London and County to 35 ; while Bank of
Australasia have improved to 68i 69g.
Miscellaneous and Finance Shares remain with-
out much variation. Anglo-American Telegraph
being dealt in at 15 15k ; Credit Foncier of Eng-
land, 2 13-16ths 3 ; Imperial Land Company of
