MONEY MAREE7' AND

CITY, Two O'CLOCK.
The Money Market continues exceedingly quiet,
and the settlements at the Stock Exchange have
exerted no perceptible influence. At the Bank of
England the applications are very limited, and in
Lombard-street the wants of the commercial corn-
ni are readily supplied on liberal terms.
SPzculation, , however, is still conducted on a re-
stricted scale, and no encouragement is given to
joint-stock projects, unless of a very highly pro-
tntsing character. As soon, however, as the anxiety
still felt in connection with foreign politics is
allayvu, a fresh impulse may be given to business
eeistohisedescription, for it merely requires a revival
f cronfidence to force a large proportion of the
es now available into active employment.
Several foreign loans are spoken of, which, although
unpopular for the moment, may eventually meet
it tray
a favourable reception ; and, as an example,
ulaY be mentioned that the proposal made on
behalf of Austria, which in the first instance ap-
peared neglected, is now attracting increased
attention, and the scrip is freely dealt in at a small
Premium.
The Clutha has arrived from Victoria, with
417,752 in gold. Further consignments are ex-
pected during the next fortnight.
The bar silver brought by the Parana, from the
West Indies, has been sold at ss. 14d., being a
decline of Id. from the price obtained for the pre-
vi ,ous remittance.
A. dividend has just been announced on the estate
of Messrs. Fry and Chapman, the bankers, who
failed upwards of twenty years ago, at the rate of
13.16ths of one penny in the pound.
In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday rather
mere animation was apparent, and prices of all de-
aeriptions were fully supported. The Railway
Share Market closed very firmly, and values tended
uPWards.
Further indications of improvement have
ueen exhibited in the Stock Exchange Mar-
ket to-day, and a preponderance of purchases,
resulting from diminished apprehension with
_rea'ard to continental politics, has placed most
ecurities in a more favourable position than
zc't several days past. Consols have been 95Z, 1,
rand 951 t- for transfer, and 95a, buyers
°,l* the account. Several fractional changes have taken
place but the market is evidently rather buoyant.
Il2e Speculators still base their transactions uponthe
ovements in the Paris Bourse, and the advancing
ndency reported there has already given support,
tot English Securities. Bank Stock is firm at 2271
