MONEY IIARKET

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

There is no change to report in the General Dis-
count Market ; few first class bills are on offer, and
brokers and others have a redundancy of capital
unemployed. The rates current are 11 to 1 per
cent.

At the bullion office of the Bank of England
yesterday there was a withdrawal of 40,000 sove-
reigns. The silver market is unaltered.
The Suffolk has arrived from Melbourne with
gold to the amount of £285,000.
A meeting of the Spanish Passive Bondholders
has been held, and resolutions proposed to address
the Stock Exchange Committee and the various
Bourses of the continent, requesting them not to
allow Spanish Stocks to be dealt in or quoted until
Borne satisfactory arrangement has been carried into
effect.

A meeting has been announced to take place to-
morrow of the; Committee of Certificate-holders,
to consider the measures to be taken in consequence
of the refusal of the trustees to hand over the books
and counterfoils at the London and County Bank.

At the first ordinary general meeting [of the
National Bank of India the report of the directors
stated that it was found impracticable to carry out
the arrangement with the Scinde, Punjaub, and
Delhi Bank, and the realised capital had been re-
turned to the shareholders ; the National Bank of
India had received their commission of £3,875, and
the agreement had been sancelled. It was thought
desirable to call a meeting of the National Bank at
Calcutta, and resolutions were carried to the effect,
that the National Bank of India under the Indian
Company's Act should be wound up, and the busi-
ness transferred to the English Company from the
80th Juno last. The directors of the Indian In-
stitution have declared a dividend at the rate of 6
per oent., and a bonus of 1 per cent., being equal
to 8 per cent, per annum.
Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures
remain steady at 25 27, and the Consolidated
Mortgage Bonds at 22 23.
Business in the Foreign and Colonial Produce
Markets during the last few days has remained very
quiet. Only moderate transactions have been re-
ported in sugar, and in some instances at slightly
lower rates. Superior descriptions of coffee have
been at steady rates, while the dealings in tea have
been deferred until to-day ; a considerable quantity
will be offered for public sale, including some of the
new season's crop. Rice has been in fair request,
while a fair business has been done in tallow, at
about previous rates.

Two o'CLocit.

According to Reuter's telegram from Paris to-
day, the French Rentes were 69f. 12c. Very flat.
Several circumstances conduce to the heaviness of
the Stock Exchange Markets. The threatened
Garibaldian expedition, Abyssinian difficulty, and
the heaviness of the Paris Bourse tend to weaken
the market for Consols, they are now quoted 94f,-
for transfer and the account. The decline there-
fore is per cent. in two days, and it is almost un-
necessary to observe that Count Bismark's circular
and depression in the Paris Bourse, and, in fact,
the heaviness of all the Continental Bourses checks
enterprise here in almost every direction. The New
Threes are 92-3- 4 ; Reduced Annuities 924 8 ;
Exchequer Bills, 20s. to 30s. prem. for March ;
India Stock, 200 ; ditto 5 per Cents., 113! ;
ditto 4 per Cents., 98 ; Enfaced ditto, 88} ; ditto 5
per Cents., 104* ; and ditto 5} per Cents., 1101.
Foreign Stocks continue firm, with the exception
,sef Turkish 5 per Cents., which have declined I, to
32 ; Italian have advanced 8, to 48} ; Greek },
to 13} 14 ; and Mexican to MI ; Spanish
Passive are 18
168 and the Certificates higher, at

American Securities are in more favour. Eric
Shares have advanced to 4li 42}; and United
States 5-20 Bonds k, to 73 -I- ; and Illinois continue
firm at 77
, A very moderate amount of business has been
transacted in the Railway Market to-day, and prices
are a shade firmer. London, Chatham, and Dover,
and North Western have each improved i ; Cale-
donian and North Eastern (Berwick), each I-, and
Great Eastern, ; while Metropolitan and South
Eastern have each declined 4, and Lancashire and
Yorkshire, 1.
The Foreign and Colonial lines show little
variation. Great Luxembourg are dealt in at 108 ;
iltecife and San Francisco, at 10 ; San Paulo, at
161 4 ; Groat Western of Canada had improved
to 14 16 ; and Bombay and Baroda, to 103.
Bank shares remain very inactive. London and
County have receded to 54i; London Joint Stock
improved to 37-1 ; and Union of London to 373.
In the Miscellaneous Market there has been little
variation. Madras Irrigation Bonds have advanced
t'°.„ 1011 ; Atlantic Telegraph 8 per Cents. declined
to 7O ; and Viceroy of Egypt's Mortgage Loan
remains steady at 72i 73.
