MONEY MARKET AND CITY .NEWS.

CITY, Two O'CLOCK.

Daring the week there has been little change to
record in the progress of business in the manufac-
turing districts. At Alanchestar prices of both
yarns and piece goods have slightly given way,
owing to the unfavourable accounts from the Indian
markets. The woollen trade at Leeds, Bradford,
and Huddersfield has shown no material variation,
although the fineness of the weather has caused a
better inquiry for light goods suitable to the home
markets. At Birmingham and most of the other
hardware districts the operations entered into have
been only to supply immediate home demands.
In the Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday
there was an increased demand, and £15,000 bales
were sold, 8,000 of which were for export, and on
speculation ; prices still'exhibited an upward ten-
dency.
There was a further sum of £12,000 in gold,
chiefly foreign coin, taken into the Bank on Satur-
day.

The Oneida has arrived from the Brazils at
Lisbon with £31,895 en route for this country.

A large business is still transacted in the gene-
ral discount market, and the inquiry is expected to
continue active during the week in consequence of
the payments due on Thursday next, the 4th inst.,
and the probable introduction of the India Loan.
The banks and discount houses have, therefore,
been induced to ask slightly higher terms for the
negotiation of commel ciai securities, and as very
little accommodation is obtainable under 6 per
cent. an increased supply of bills is taken to the
Bank of England. . .

There has been a quiet market for public securities
to-day, and the fluctuation has been restricted to -1
per cent. During the earlier hours of business a
slight improvement took place, but quotations have
since returned to their previous position. Consols
have been 891 for money, and 891 for account ;
but they are now 891 e, and 891 respectively.
Tho NCW Three per Cents, were steady at
881 t, and the Reduced Annuities realised 881 I.
Bank Stock brought 230 ; the 6 per Cent. India
Loan 987 a ; and India Bonds, 18s. dis. ; Exchequer
Bills were heavy, the March issue being dealt in
at 12s. dis., and the June ditto at 3s. to Os. dis.

In the Foreign Market the dealings have not
been extensive; prices, however, have tended up-
wards. Old Turkish 6 per Cents. advanced to
721, and the Loan of 1858 to 57 and 57-2, Mexi-
can Stock was steady at 22 ; Spanish declined to
49 ; and Dutch 22 per Cents. brought 631 ex div.
Peruvian Uribarren Bonds realised 811 ex div.

The dealings in the Railway Share Market to-day
were of the most limited character, and little change
of importance took place in prices. Lancashire and
Yorkshire, North Western, and South Western
declined 55., and Great Western 10s. ; South
Easterns, however, improved ss. ; North Eastern
(Berwick), and one or two others, realised previous

prices.
In the Foreign and Colonial Markets the opera-
tions were of an unimportant character, Great
Luxemburg brought 7/ ; Namur and Liege 81 ;
East Indian improved to 98i, and Great Indian
Peninsula to 951 96.
Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares con-
tinued dull, without any change of importance in
values. Union of Australia declined 55., and Peel
River Land improved ss.
