XONEk MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTBLLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.
There is but a comparatively slight demand for
discount accommodation for commercial purposes,
and with a perceptible increase in the supplies of
floating capital at the command of the joint-stock
?auks the rate in the open money market is show-
ing a downward direction. For superior paper of
short-date 81 or 9 per cent. is asked, and exceptional
operations on lower terms have also been concluded.
An encouraging feeling is apparent in consequence
of the continued favourable tendency in the Paris
exchanges and the large inflow of gold into the
vaults of the Bank of England.
The gold taken to the Bank yesterday repre-
sent ed £26,000 in bars, and 113,000 sovereigns.
A second dividend of 2s. 6d. has been announced
by the liquidator of the London, Ilamburgh, and.
Continental Exchange Bank, making, with the pre-
-71014 dividend, 9s. 2d. in the pound.

Two O'CLOCK.
According to Reuter's telegram from Paris to-
the French Rentes were 68f. 90c. Rather
'rut. Very little business.
The majority of the mercantile community can
obtain accommodation on terms, accidents excepted,
'clew', the minimum of the Bank of England.
Those who are carefully watching the progress of
e'rents and collateral influenceswill not be surprised
ii
the bank directors lower their minimum next
.Thursday, or within the next fortnight, without any
Interference on the part of the Chancellor of the
Exchequer, who is fully competent to deal with
hall' question of finance. The manner in which
re has replied in proper terms to the proposi-
cHls that have been made by various depu-
tations„ introduced by members of Parliament
has been most commendable, and there is every
reason to believe that he will treat the question upon
the principle of non-intervention, since every one
unbiassed must perceive that affairs, checked though
they
may be, are returning to a healthy condition.
,4 few sales to realise profits have caused a decline
fel Per cent. in the value of Consols, which, there-
,ere) are now 87k for money, and 88/ 1 for the
6th proximo. Money being easier, and political
trclsPeets favourable, it is rather strange that more
°Yancy should not exist, but dullness and heavi-
ness may be chiefly attributed to the limited at-
I.lldanee of investors and speculators. The New
