HONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

STOPPAGE OF ANOTHER BANK.

The suspension has been announced this morning
of the private banking-house of Sir Charles Price,
Bart., Marryat, and Co., of King William-street.
The firm has been established for more than a cen-
tury, and was consequently one of the oldest as well
as the most influential of private banks. Its busi-
ness, however, has of late years largely fallen off,
owing principally to the rivalry of tiro joint-stock
system. No estimate has yet been formed of the
assets or liabilities, but they are not believed to be
considerable.

The Money Market continues to show symptoms
of activity, and the supply of capital afloat is more
abundant. Bankers and brokers, however, will only
negotiate the best short-dated paper, at prices
ranging from 1 per cent. below the official quota-
tion of 10 per cent. In the Stock Exchange daily
loans on Government securities are charged 6 and
7 per cent.
A small amount of gold was taken to the Bank
of England on Saturday, viz., £2,000.

Sir John Gray, who presented a petition for
winding up Lafitte and Co. (Limited), has stated
his willingness to receive any offer for the arrange-
ment of the matter, and a withdrawal of the peti-
tion, that can be carried out.
The Bedford Bank (Messrs. Barnard, Barnard,
and Wing) have transferred their account to Messrs.
Smith, Payne, and Smiths.
The report of the directors of the St. John Del
Rey Mining Company, just issued, recommends a
dividend of £4 per share, free of income tax.
From the manufacturing districts the accounts
during the past week represent that business gene-
rally has been particularly inactive. AtManchester
both cloths and yarns have further declined, with a
very limited inquiry for either home requirements
or for exportation. In the woollen trade of Leeds,
Bradford, and Huddersfield there has been no
animation ; while at Leicester and Nottingham the
hosiery and lace trades have shown dullness, and at
Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton most
branches of trade are working short time.

According to Reuter's telegrams this morning,
the Trench Rentes were 62f. 75c. Very flat.
