MONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.
In the City this morning business laas been par-
ticularly quiet, and speculative conversation has
been much indulged anent the Queen's speech.
Being the first active session under Earl Derby,
much anxiety is manifested regarding the early events
of the prsent Administration in the year 1867. With
anxiety, however, there is confidence. Our foreign
policy is believed to be sound, and the finances of
the country, it is thought, will be properly manipu-
lated by the Right lion. B. Disraeli, the Chancellor
of the Exchequer.
In the Discount Market to-day very little busi-
ness has been transacted, and the rates remain
Without alteration.

At the Bank of England yesterday there was a
withdrawal of 10,000 sovereigns for Egypt.
The City of New York has arrived with specie
to the amount of about £6,000.
Business in the Foreign and Colonial Produce
Markets during the last few days has remained very
quiet. A moderate demand has prevailed for sugar,
and prices generally have been well maintained.
Coffee and rice, however, have barely sustained
former values; while in tallow the dealings have been
of too limited a character to affect quotations.
At a meeting to-day of the Bank of Egypt a
dividend was approved, at the rate of 10 per cent.
per annum, together with the bonus of £1 per share.
At a meeting to-day of the Provincial Banking
Corporation a dividend, free of income tax, was
readily accepted at the rate of 74 per cent.
At a meeting to-day of the London and South
Western Bank the proprietors were satisfied with
the dividend, at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum.

quiet, but prices of almost every class of security
show considerable firmness, Consols for money and
