MONEY MARKET 'YN77I---iii7l, ivEl4,3;.

CITY, Two o'CLoca.

The Bank of England return, completed to the
13th inst., is again of a very satisfactory character.
The bullion, owing to the arrivals of specie from
the continent and Australia, has been augmented
by about a quarter of a million sterling; in the
reserve of notes there is an increase of half a million,
and the other securities share an important diminu-
tion. The active collection of the revenue, as usual
at this period of the year, has augmented the
Public DePosits, and a small diminution has conse-
quently taken place in the private balances. The
Government Securities show an increase of about
half a million. The other items of the balance-
sheet exhibit no alterations of importance ; they

been limited, but the Funds have been steadily
supported, Consols being 914 92 for money, andi
and 921 f for the account. The Bank of England

ton and South-Westerns advanced 10s.
In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings prices,
have been very steady.

remained very quiet. Union of London have de-1
