MONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENOB,

TWELVE 0' C LOC K .

In the general Discount Market there is rather
more demand, and the rates are firmer at 21 I.
In the Stock Exchange there is also more demand,
and the rates for loans on Government Securities
is fully 2 per cent.
No gold operations took place on Saturday at
the Bank of England.
In the Opinione Nationale of this day we see it
stated that the Cabinets of Paris and Berlin have
been exchanging notes on the question of the neu-
tralisation of Mayence, under certain conditions.
The concession, adds the French journal, on the
part of Prussia, will simplify greatly a situation
which is yet full of uneasiness.
The accounts from the manufacturing districts
state that during the past week there has been
very little animation iu most departments of busi-
ness. At Manchester sales of cloths and yarns could
only be effected at reduced prices, while at Leeds,
Bradford, and Huddersfield, the chief inquiries
were for woollen goods, although manufacturers
evince no disposition to force sales. In the
hosiery and lace departments of Leicester and
Nottingham there has been rather more activity,
but dullness and inactivity has prevailed in the
hardware districts of Birmingham, Sheffield, and
Wolverhampton, and many of the establishments
have been working short time.
Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures
remain steady at 31 33, and the Consolidated
Morgage Bonds at 25 26.
The directors of the London, Chatham, and Dover.
Railway Company have issued a report of the
company's financial connection with the contrac-
tors, Messrs. Peto and Company. They affirm,
incredible though it may seem, that the result of
an investigation is that Messrs. Peto owe the com-
pany no less a sum than £6,661,941.195. Id. They,
however, make the important qualification that they
have calculated the stock issued to this firm at par,
whereas some of it is known to have been issued in
the market at 27} per cent. only. The directors,
however, state that they leave the contractors to
prove a different result. It appears that the Im-
perial Mercantile Credit Association, now in liqui-
dation, claims £135,000, for which the directors
say there is "no foundation." The General Credit
and Discount Company claim £160,000, which the
directors say cannot be sustained.

Two O'CLOCK.

The English Stock Market this morning opened
firm at the closing prices of Saturday last, but less
firmness was apparent, without any ostensible
reason except a few sales, and a decline has taken
place to the extent of per cent., the latest prices
being 94 # for money and 941 for the account.
The New Threes are 931, Reduced Annuities
93 s, Exchequer Bills for March 265. prem., and
for June 20s. prem. ; India 5 per Cents. 1081 109,
ditto Enfaced 4 per Cents., 86 ; and ditto 51 per
Cents., 1084.
The Foreign Stock Market values present very
little change of importance. Mexican are un-
changed at 161 8 ; Spanish Passives at 231 241 ;
Certificates at 141 ; Greek at 151 ; Turkish 5
per Cents. at 331 8 ; and Chilian Scrip at 1
prem; but Italian have advanced I, to 521 1 ; and
Russian Scrip declined 8 to 8 11 prem.

In the Railway Share Market business has been
rather inactive, and a further decline has been
established. Great Eastern has receded 1/, Great
Western /, North Western Midland li, N. E.
Berwick and South Eastern
Foreign and Colonial Railway Shares have re-
mained very inactive, at about previous rates.
Miscellaneous and Finance Shares are without
material change in values. Atlantic Telegraph 8
Per Cents., being dealt in at 881 90 ; General
Credit at 5 13-16ths ; Telegraph Construction and
Maintenance at 16i ; and Fare-street Warehouse
at 13.

Bank shares are dull. London and Westminster
are marked 106 1061; Alliance, 15; ; London Joint-
Stock, 431; and Union of London, 39f 40.
American Securities are in some instances slightly
improved. Erie Shares are better, at 39 40 ; and
Illinois 1, at 79f ; but American 5-20 Bonds have
declined ~ to 724 73.
Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures
remain steady at 31 33, and the Consolidated
Mortgage Bonds at 25 26.

Election of Sheriffs for London and Middle-
sex—(This Day.)

This morning the election of Sheriffs of London
and Middlesex took place at the Guildhall at one
o'clock. The Right Hon. the Lord Mayor in the
chair.

After the usual formal preliminaries had been
gone through, the Lord Mayor briefly introduced
the object for which the Corporation and Livery-
men had assembled, viz., the election of sheriffs for
London and Middlesex.

Mr. GEo. Moon said that he haargreat pleasure
in proposing Mr. Alderman Stone as one of the
sheriffs.

Mr. JONES, in an eulogistic speech, seconded the
proposal.
Mr. GEO. MOORE then proposed Mr. M'Arthur,
citizen and spectacle maker, as the other sheriff for
the ensuing year.
Mr. JAMES SPICER, in seconding this nomina-
tion, remarked that Mr. M'Arthur had always dis-
tinguished himself as an advocate for the rights
and privileges of the City of London.
Mr. JONES would wish to ask Mr. M'Arthur, as
it had lately been the custom, to decry the privileges
of the Corporation whether he was prepared to
uphold their ancient rights and privileges, and in
case of any subject of dispute to support them.

Mr. APARTHUR said, in reply, that he had always
been the staunch supporter of their rights and privi-
leges, and should maintain the integrity of the loyal
and ancient corporation of the city of London to the
utmost. (Loud cheers.)
It was then announced that the election of Sheriffs
for the ensuing year had fallen upon Mr. Alderman
Stone and Wm. M'Arthur, Esq. (Loud cheers.)
After speeches returning thanks from these gen.
tlemen, and a vote of thanks to the Lord
,Mayor,
the election terminated.
