ZIONEY 3IARKET AND CITY NEWS.

CITY, Two O'CLOCK.

The Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets
during the last few days have been in some mea-
sure influenced by the effect of the disastrous fire
ghat has taken place in Tooley-street. The dealings
in tea have been limited owing to the near approach
of the public sales. Sugars have been in moderate
request, without however any change of importance
to note in prices. Coffee. rice, and spices have been
in limited demand, and little alteration can be re-
corded in the value of saltpetre. Tallow has been
dull, but the destruction of a large supply at the
fire in the Borough has caused a slight advance in
the quotations. P.Y.C. on the spot being 535. 9d.
to Ms.. and last three months delivery 51s. 9d. to
525. per cwt.
At a meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Mackay
and Road, held yesterday, the balance-sheet pre-
Rented showed, liabilities at £16,150, with assets at
£4,959 ; it was resolved to appoint a committee of
investigation who will report the best plan to be
pursued at a future meeting.

There was more demand for cotton at Liverpool
Yesterday ; the sales exceeded 10,000 bales, 2,000 of
which were for export and on speculation and last
Friday's quotations were firmly supported.

A further addition of £20,000 in gold was made
to the stock of bullion in the Bank of England
yesterday.

There is a quiet demand for money in the Dis-
count Market, and the rates continue steady. On
the Stock Exchange, however, there was an aug-
mented inquiry for advances, and the quotations
range from 6 to 61 per cent.
The market for Public Securities is extremely de-
pressed inconsequence of the continuance of specu-
lative sales, and the expectation that supplies of
money stock willemanate from the insurance offices
to provide for the claims arising out of the fire
in Tooley-street. Consols have, consequently, re-
ceded to 89} I for transfer, and 89i- for the ac-
count, being 3 per cent. lower than they were on
Saturday afternoon. The New Threes and the
Reduced Annuities have receded to 881 d ; the 5
per Cent. India Loan brought 981 -I; and India
Bonds, 20s. to 12s. dis. ; Exchequer Bills are 9s. ;
and the June ditto, 3s. dis. to par.

Scarcely any business has been transacted to-day
in the Foreign Stock Market. Russian 5 per
Cents., however, realise 1021 ; and Brazilian 41
per Cents., 861; Turkish Bonds are flat; the
Old 6 per Cents, being 71 to 71+ ; the Loan of
1858, 55,1 to 551 ; and the 4 per Cents, Guaranteed,
1001 I.
The transactions in the Railway Share Market
have been extremely limited, and prices have
shown no change of importance. Midlands, how-
ever, improved about ss. The other lines dealt
in brought former prices.
The Foreign and Colonial lines continued in-
active, without any material alteration. Grand
Trunk of Canada, however, declined 10s.
Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous shares have
been inactive. Bank of Australasia improved to 61,
Oriental Bank realised 461, Peninsular and Orien-
tal Steam, 67; and Scottish Australian Investment,
128.
