:MONEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS'

CITY, Two O'CLOCK.

The Money Market presents rather a quiet ap-
pearance, and the rates are a fraction easier, first
class bills being easily negotiable at 5.4- per cent.
A furthur sum of £75,000 in gold was taken into
the Bank yesterday.

There was no alteration of importance in the
foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon.
In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday there
was a fair demand, and the sales amounted to 12,000
bales at full prices.
Sines Monday last the imports of specie have
amounted to £668,940, and the exports to £537,920.
Very little business has been transacted in the
Public Securities to-day, but the improvement has
been well maintained. Consols being 90 to 904- for
transfer, 9081 for the account. The New Threes
and Reduced are 891 ?,,-; Exchequer Bills, March,
78. dis. ; ditto, June, par to 3s. prem. ; Bank Stock
is 231 232 ; and India 5 per Cent. Loan, 981.
In the Foreign Stock Market the (thief movement
has been in Turkish Bonds, which have improved
72 1 for the Old 6 per Cents., and to 561

and 57 for the Loan of 1858. Transaction;

in fact, have taken place at still higher
quotations, but sales to realise profits have
caused a slight reaction. The improvement
is attributable to intelligence that £20,800 has been
paid iilto the Ottoman Bank at Constantinople on
account of the loan of 1858, conformably with the
arrangement recently made for the monthly trans-
mission of the Customs Duties assigned to the
interest and sinking fund. Spanish are 501; ditto
