ZIOIVEY 2IIA.RKET AND CITY NEWS'

CITY, Two O'CLOCK.

The accounts from the manufacturing districts
represent that during the past week a more cheer-
ful tone has prevailed in most departments of
business, the fineness of the weather, with the im-
proved harvest prospects, having caused increased
activity. At Leeds the dealings in woollen cloths
have been to an average extent, and at Bradford
and Huddersfield piece goods have been in more
request. Business at Manchester, however, has
enntinued dull, but at Leicester, Hinckley, and
Nottingham, the hosiery trade has been more
active. In the various hardware districts symptoms
of improvement have been apparent in several de-
partments.
The demand for discounts on commercial account
continues extremely quiet, and as the supplies of
money are superabundant the trading classes can
-low obtain accommodation in the open market on
Much lower terms than those required by the Bank
of England. The best qualities of home and foreign
paper, for instance, are now negotiable at 41,, and
in special cases at 41 per cent., and it is therefore pre-
sumed that the discount operations of the establish-
ment where 4 per cent. is charged are very much
reduced_ At the same time it is known that the bul-
lion is being rapidly augmenting by the large
daily influx of Australian and other gold, and under
these circumstances the authorities, it is imagined
Will soon deem it expedient to offer increased
facilities.

About £40,000 in gold was sent into the Bank
of England on Saturday.
The steam©r Euxine, which leaves to-morrow,
will take £15,000 in gold for Alexandria, and
:£10,113 and £38,400 in silver for Bombay.
A call of £3 per share has been made by the
directors of the Cape Tewn Railway and Dock
Company, payable on or before the 21st inst.
Continued activity prevailed in the Liverpool
Cotton Market on Saturday, and prices tended
upwards. The sales amounted to 20,000 bales.
Business in the Market for English Securities has
been conducted on a limited scale, but quotations
have been tolerably well maintained, owing to the
continued fineness of the weather and the easiness
of money. Consols are 91; 92 for money, and 921
for account. The New Threes and the Reduced are
trrn at 91; 921; Bank Stock has advanced to 235 ;
Exchequer Bills, March, to 3s. dis. ; ditto, June, to
4s. prem. ; India Stock is steady at 220 ; and the
New Loan Scrip, 103 i.
Foreign Securities have shown less buoyancy,
and the dealings have been restricted. Turkish 6
Per Cents. have receded to 781 72, and ditto 1858,
to 69 to 691; Mexican are heavy at 218; Sardinian
rril at 791, and Dutch 21 per Cents. at 64 ; Bra-
zilian 998, and Chilian 42 per Cents. 811.

Business in the Railway Share Market has
continued moderately active, but prices have
shown a downward movement,. particularly as
regards Brighton and Eastern Counties; the former,
owing to the unfortunate accident that occurred
Yesterday, have declined about 11,- to 2 per cent.,
While the latter, in consequence of a pressure of
sales, has receded 1 to 1-1- per cent. Great Northerns,
Great Westerns, Lancashire and Yorkshire, and
Midlands have declined ss. ; Manchester, Sheffield,
and Lincoln, 10s.

In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings busi-
ness has continued inactive, without any material
Change in values.

Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares
have shown less firmness. London and Westmin-
ster receded 55.; New South Wales, 10s.; Crystal
Palace Stock, ss. ; and Madras Irrigation, ss.
