ZiONEy MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market is active, and the quotations
of the brokers are assuming a firmer tendency. A
large number of bills held over in expectation of a
reduction yesterday in the rate, and the engage-
ments that will h ave to be provided for to-morrow, the
4th of the month, are the chief causes operating in
favour of high values for a time. The rates in the
()Pen market, however, show no important change,
and 8 per cent. must stLl be quoted the lowest
charge for the best paper.
The alterations shown in the Bank of England
return are important, but the favourable movement
in the bullion has been negatived by the decrease in
the reserve of notes. Subjoined are the parti-
culars :

Two O'CLOCK.

At the Paris Bourse, this morning, according to
Reuter's telgram, the 3 per cent. Rentes were 69f.
10c. Flat. Little business.
The English Stock Market is very dull and de-
pressed, owing chiefly to the unfavourable prospect
of the Money Market, and the inclement state of
the weather and its effect upon harvest operations.
Consols have receded per cent, to 88i for
money, 'and to 87,1 for the acccount ; for Sep-
tember next the quotations are 88i I. The New
Threes and Reduced Annuities are 86i 87} ; ditto
5 per Cents., 103 i ; India 5 per Cents., 102;103* ;
ditto 4 per Cents., 92/ ; ditto Enfaced 5 per
Cents., 100 ; ditto 5/ per Cents., 105} ; and ditto
Debentures, 100 i-.

lower prices. Turkish 5 per Cents. have declined
to 261 ; Mexican 1, to 17 1 ; Spanish Passive 1,
to 19i ; Italian f, to 51 4 ; and Brazilian to
4 3t dis. ; but the New Mexican Loan remained at
134 14 ; Greek at 11i 12 ; and Spanish Certificates
141 American Securities have also generally
realised lower values. United States 5-20 Bonds
