ItONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENORt,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market is now in a rather quiet con-
dition. There is a fair supply of floating capital at
the command of the brokers, and there is only a
mnillinquiry for accommodation. First class bills
are still charged and 6 per cent., but the ten-
dency is towards lower rates.
It has been announced that the half-yearly inte-
rest on the bonds of the Venezuela 6 per Cent.
Loan, 1864, due April next, will be paid at the
°faces of the General Credit and Finance Company
of London, and after the 2d proximo.
The accounts from the manufacturing districts for
the past week generally are satisfactory, although
Prices of both cloths and yarns at Manchester have
slightly given way, consequent upon the late ad-
Itices from America. The woollen trade of Leeds,
Bradford, and Huddersfield, has continued season-
ably active, while little change can be reported in
tbe hosiery and lace departments at Leicester and
Nottingham. Inc l
hard*are districts of Bir-
illinghara, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton, business
generally has remained steady.
