AIONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The money market is much quieter than antici-
pated, as it was generally believed that a very con-
siderable number of bills had been held in reserve
during the past few days in consequence of the ex-
Peeted reduction in the rate. This inactivity leads
to the inference that still lower quotations may pre-
vail in the course of another week. The brokers
have plenty of money at their command, and the
general rate ranges from 71 per cent.
At the Bullion-office of the Bank, yesterday,
the influx of gold represented the sum of £83,000.
The return from the Bank of England for the
Week ending the 15th August exhibits some satis-
factory changes. The reserve of notes has been in-
creased by £878,445, and the bullion by £528,527,
while the other securities show a diminution of
932,238. The public and private deposits also are
rather larger, while the Government Securities have
received an addition of £633,600. Annexed is a

DISCOVERY OF ANOTHER FENIAN STOREHOUSE.
Another Fenian arsenal was discovered at Kilmallock,
county Limerick, yesterday evening, when 500 ball car-
tridges with bullet moulds, cartridge filling machines, were
accidentally found in some ruins. Three respectable far-
mers have since absconded.

HORNCASTLE HORSE FAlR.—This great Lincoln-
shire horse fair was oper.i+d on Monday with a fine show
of handsome and w;,11-bred cattle. There was a consider-
able attendance of dealers and breeders, and the presence

cart horses, suitable for brewers, merchants, and road
team work, 50 to 65 guineas ; seasoned ditto,
for farming work, 20 to 28 guineas ; and stout-
built active horses for artillery and other military pur-
poses, 35 to 45 guineas. Horses well bred, and of high
class -and fashion, broken to pair harness, and
suitable for private carriage purposes, 75 to 90 guineas ;
well-matched pairs of ditto, 200 to 250 guineas; and young
and unbroken horses of this class, 55 to 70 guineas. Hand-
some horses for saddle purposes, 60 to 85 guineas and up-
wards ; horses of high blood and pedigree for the hunting
field made from 80 up to 200 guineas, and strong steady
cobs, 25 to 35 guineas; roadsters, common hacks, and single
harness horses ranged from 20 to 30 guineas each. Several
auction sales took place. The fair will be kept open during
