COMMERCIAL ENTELLIGE NCR.

TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The Money Market remains in a quiet but strin-
gent condition. The almost daily notification of
joint stock and private commercial failures render
discounters very reserved in their operations, and
besides, the eflux of gold to the Continent likewise
tends to keep up the rate for monetary accommoda-
tion at its present high value. In the open market
the brokers are very cantious in the negotiation
of the bills brought into circulation, and only
bankers' short-dated acceptances are taken at the
official quotations, viz., 10 per cent.
The failure of Messrs. Gellatly, Hankey, and
Sewell, in the shipping trade, was announced yes-
terday afternoon. The event was produced by
exceptional causes, and it is believed the liquidation
will prove most favourable. A surplus of about
£60,000 is anticipated. Arrangements have been
Made for carrying forward the branch of business
Connected with shipping and freights, so that there
Will be no interruption to that department.
The sum of £172,000 was withdrawn from the
Bank of England yesterday afternoon.
At a meeting to-day of the shareholders of the
Bank of Queensland, the report presented by the
directors stated that after paying all charges, and
Providing for rebate of interest on bills discounted
on 30th December, 1865, there remains a balance
of profit of £10,373 103. Id., equal to 10 per cent.
Per annum on the paid-up capital.
A meeting of the shareholders of the New Zea-
land Banking Corporation, has been held to-day
for the purpose of considering the best mode to be
adopted for winding up the affairs of the company.
Mr. IL A. Hankey occupied the chair. A preli-
minary statement submitted by the secretary
Showed that the liabilities were estimated at
£296,291, and the assets £300,936. The following
resolutions were adopted :—That the directors be
authorised to take such steps legal or otherwise to
protect the property of the bank, and that it is
highly desirable that the efforts of the directors to
Secure and command the conduct of the liquidation
should be continued, and that the liquidation should
remain in their own hands. The shareholders pre-
sent expressed their confidence in the directors.

Two O'CLOCK.
According to Reuter's telegram this morning, the
French Rentes were 63f. 50c.
The English Stock Market has been exceedingly
Well
supported to-day, and an improvemynt fully
per cent. has been recorded in the funds. A more
favourable opinion respecting foreign politics, and
the low prices which prevailed have induced large
Purchasers of stock for investment and speculation.
