AO bales, fair demand. Sales probably

TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The directors of the Bank of England have re-
frained from making any alteration to-day in the
rate of discount. Athough the reserves of the esta-
blishment have been further increased during the
'week, and the value of money in the open market
has been from to to 1 per cent. cheaper than at the
Bank, the adverse state of the exchanges, and the
still low figure of the reserves, must have influenced
the author:ties to-day in abstaining for the present
from initiating any downward movement.
The last week's railway receipts, ascertained up
to this day, are in round figures as under :_....
