MONEY MARKET

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

There is a good demand for money in discount
circles, owing to a very large number of heavy bills
arriving at maturity to-morrow, and to payments
connected with revenue. The general rate is about
equal to the official minimum, viz., 7 per cent.
The sum of £85,000 in gold was taken to the
Bank of England yesterday.
The Bank of England return for the past week
is favourable, but the alterations have not been very
important. Annexed are the particulars :

The Bank of France return is very satisfactory.
The bullion has been increased £712,000, and the
Treasury accounts £74,000 ; while there has been a
decrease of £472,000 in the bills discounted, of
£750,000 in the notes in circulation, of £16,000 in
the advances, and of £280,000 in the current
accounts.

During the last few days there has been very little
animation exhibited in the Foreign and Colonial
Produce Markets. Tea has been neglected, while
only moderate transactions have taken place in
sugar, at about previous prices. Coffee has been
in fair request at steady quotations, but tallow has
remained inactive, and late rates are barely supported.

Two o'CLocK.

According to Reuter's telegram the French
Three per Cent. Rentes were quoted at 69f. 70c.
Unanitnate3, but firm.

A slight improvement has taken place in the
English Stock Market, and Consols are now quoted
864 / for money, and 87 for the account. There
is no doubt that much of the recent depreciation in
the Funds has been caused by sales, in consequence
of monetary wants to pay for calls, &c., connected
With joint-stock enterprise. The New Threes and
Reduced Annuities are 849 859 ; Bank of England
Stock, 2501 252 ; India 5 per Cents., 1021 k ; do.

5-20 Bonds are 703 1 ; Erie Shares, 543 ; and
Illinois, 77k 78.
Business in the railway share market has re-
ruined very quiet, but in one or two instances
slightly higher rates are current. North Western
have improved 55., and Midland, North Eastern
(Berwick), and South-Eastern each 10s. ; while
Brighton have declined 10s.
In the Foreign and Colonial lines there is little
Change of importance. Great Western of Canada
