XONEt-MARKET

COMMERCIAL IN TELLIGENCB,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The Money Market presents a quiet appearance,
notwithstanding the agitation which has been oc-
casioned in business circles by the bank failures
announced last Saturday. The stoppage of these
institutions, viz., the European Bank and the New
Zealand Banking Corporation, excited no surprise
to those connected with banking operations, and it
is only among the general public that anything like
alarm has been created. The inquiry for discount
accommodation being small, there appears more
disposition among the brokers to work at the Bank
of England rate.
The gold taken from the Bank on Saturday re-
presented a sum of £53,000.
We are authorised to state that the stoppage of
the former proprietors of the Ebbor Vale Works
and Mines, announced on Saturday, in no way
affects the operations of the Ebbor Vale Company
(Limited), who purchased these works two years
ago, and have since carried them on with success.
The General Estates Company have made a call
cf. £2 per share, payable at the National Bank, Old
Broad-street, on or before the 21st August next.
The directors of the St. John d'El Rey Mining
following
Company (Limited) have received, per Navarre, the
report, dated Morro Velho, April 17,
1866 :—Produce for March, 57,821 oitavas ; cost
for March, £11,477 ; profit for March, £10,814 ;
produce ten days of April, 16,490 oitavas ; yield,
9,952 oitavas per ton.
From the manufacturing districts the accounts
for the past week have been generally of a very
gloomy character. The unsettled state of political
affairs on the Continent, with the monetary crises
, that has occurred at home, having checked all
speculative transactions, and the operations in most
departments have only been to supply immediate
requirements.
With regard to the Oriental Commercial Bank
a friendly petition has been presented with the ob-
ject of protecting the assets pending the arrange-
ments in progress for carrying on the business
Without stoppage.

According to Reuter's telegram this morning,CLocK the
French Rentes were 63f. 20c.
The market for the English Funds has been very
'ePressed and a decline of 4 per cent. has taken
Place. This depreciation is owing to sales of money
stock in consequence of the inability of some parties
to Obtain sufficient supplies of capital in the discount
blarket. Consols are 86i for money, and 85
for the account. The New Threes and Reduced
Annuities are f per cent. lower at 84f i; Bank
