MONEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS.

CITY, Two o'CLocK.

Rather more firmness is reported in the general
discount market ; the terms have risen to the Bank
minimum, and the inquiry, although comparatively
quiet, has steadily increased. The Indian Loan
instalment, amounting to 25 per cent., which be-
came due yesterday, may have exercised some
influence; but the requirements of the commercial
community are larger, and if the specie movement
should take an unfavourable turn higher rates of dis-
count may soon be established. The exportation of
gold to the Continent continues on an extensive
scale, and augmented shipments of silver to the
East are expected on Government as well as on
private account. In the meantime there is a delay
in the arrivals from Australia, and the decline in
the New York exchange has diminished the re•
ceipts from that source of supply.
The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon pre-
sented a further slight advance in the rates on
Vienna, Trieste, and Amsterdam.
At the Bank of England yesterday there were
no bullion operations of importance. The demand
for silver has considerably increased, but the supply
is small, and bars have advanced to ss. 2-2-d.
