NONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL ENTELLIGENCE.

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The business of the week has commenced with an
extreme degree of quietude. The supply of com-
mercial bills on offer are limited, and speculation in
securities of all descriptions is much below the ave-
rage, notwithstanding this proverbially dull season
of the year.
The sum of £ll,OOO was sent into the Bank on
Saturday afternoon, including 8,000 sovereigns
from the Continent.
Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures
are 66 68, and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds
48 49.

The directors of the Great Western Railway of
Canada have announced their intention of recom-
mending a dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per
annum, free of income tax, leaving a balance of
£2,648 12s. to be carried over, including the sur-
plus of the present half year.
The return for the month of July on the Cape
Town Railway and Dock Company amounts to
£2,997, against £2,763 at the same period of 1865.

From the manufacturing districts the accounts
for the past week state that business generally has
remained dull. At Leeds, Bradford, and.lludders-
teld only moderate dealings have been effected in
woollen goods, chiefly for home consumption. At
Manchester there has been a very limited inquiry
for both cloths and yarns, at barely previous rates;
While the hosiery and lace trades of Leicester and
Nottingham have shown a slight improvement. In
the hardware districts of Birmingham, Sheffield,
and Wolverhampton, there has been very little ani-
mation in any department of business.

Two o'CLoca.

At the Paris Bourse to-day, according to Reuter's
telegram, the 3 per Cent. itentes were dealt in at
69f. 20c.

In the discount market there is some degree of
dulness, and the rates show a downward tendency.
At the Stock Exchange speculation is partially
suspended, and the operations for permanent invest-
ment are too limited to impart any appearance of
animation to the different markets. With an ex-
treme degree of quietude, however, it is satisfactory,
to notice that almost every class of secu-
rity is sustained in its convertible value. "Left
alone" is the motto that might be ap-
Plied to more than half of - the Stocks
and Shards marked in Messrs. Wetenhall's Lists.
The New Threes are 861 g, and Reduced Annuities
861 e; Annuities, 1885, 12 13-16 ; Bank of Eng-

are 154 16 ; Spanish Passive, 224 23 ; the Certifi-
cates, 14i 15k ; and the Brazilian Scrip, 4i 3 dis.
American Securities are very dull, and prices are
generally lower. United States 5.20 Bonds are 713
72 ; Erie shares, 473 8 ; and Illinois, 773 78.
Business in the Railway Share Market has been
'very inactive, and the general tendency of prices
bas been downwards. South Western have declined
10s., North Eastern (Berwick) £l, Great North-
ern A Stock, North Western, Midland and South
Eastern, each 10s. ; and Great Western ss. ; while
London, Chatham, and Dover have improved 10s.
In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings there
has been very little business transacted, and prices
remain unaltered.
