MONEY-TRADE-COMMERCE.

At Manchester, Bolton, and Bury, most of the
mills are at work ; at Bolton about 120 persons have
been apprehended for riot and outrage. At Stock-
port, the master manufacturers resolved on opening
their mills this (Monday) morning. In Staffordshire,
also, the return to work is expected to be general.
At Bradford and Blackburn, trade has improved ;
and business promises better both at Halifax and Lei-
cester. At Leeds, also, there has been some amend-
ment.

At Rochdale since the riots the woollen trade has
resumed its full activity, and there is now a good de-
mand in the market. At Wigan also, in the hand-
loom weaving department, there is considerable im-

provement.
It is computed that in consequence of the disturbed
feeling of the operative classes at Stockport, and their
determination not to return to work except on spe-
cified terms, upwards of 21,0001. has been withdrawn
from circulation in that borough. This evil is already
beginning to be felt by the middle class and tradesmen.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, MONDAY EVENING.
A further improvement has to be noted to have
taken place in the Funds, towards the afternoon,
and Consols finally left off at 92{ 93 for Money, and
931 93} for the Account. India Stock, 249 251 ; Ex-
chequer Bills,Old, 51 53 ; New, 49 51 premium.
The prices of Foreign Securities were—Belgian,
104 1021 ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 521
521; Fives,lo2 1021; Danish, 831841; and Brazilian,
66 67, this latter having advanced fully one per cent.
The quotation of the Mexican was rather higher, in
consequence of the cessation of sales, 351 351.
The Share Market closed firm. London and Bir-
mingham, 184 186 ; Birmingham and Gloucester,
41 43 ; Great Western, 85 86 ; the Half Shares,
61 62; South Western, 591 601 ; North Midland, 56
58 ; and the New Shares, 271 281; South Eastern
and Dover, 214 221 ; Eastern Counties, 8.8- 88 ;
Northern and Eastern, 371 381; Blackwall, 74 81 ;
and Brighton, 331 331.
The quotations of the Bonds were—Peruvian,
15 17 ; Colombian, 204 21; Portuguese Five per
Cents., 344 351; the Three per Cents., 204 211;
Spanish Five per Cents. 161 16*; the Three per
Cents., 21 211.
A rise of upwards of 4s. per quarter in the price of
Wheat took place on the corn market to-day. This
is to be wholly attributed to the machinations of cer-
tain speculators, alluded to some days since. It is
stated that no legitimate reason exists for this ad-
vance, and so consumers are to a great extent
obliged to pay more than should be the case. Large
quantities of bonded grain having been released,
the grand object of operators now is to
raise the averages, so that the grain now in the ware-
houses, or about to arrive, may be excluded from the
market. This system is much to be deplored, and
the working of it has never been more clearly deve-
loped than at the present time.
A letter, from a person who has just left Wednes-
bury, states that the colliers have not yet returned to
work, and that arrangements between them and the
coal-owners were far from being completed. The
consequence of this has been to advance the price of
cotton yarns 71, and in some cases 10 per cent.; or-
ders to this effect have been universally forwarded to
their various agents here. It is stated that orders,
uncompleted, are so numerous that it is necessary to
supply the givers with a per centage or dividend upon
the amount.

(From The Sun of Last Night.)
The markets generally show a decided improve-
ment to-day, though but little business is doing.
Consols have advanced to 93 buyers for Money, and
93i 93/ for the Account. New Three-and-a-Half
per Cents. 1014 1011; Exchequer Bills Old, 51 53,;
New, 49 51 prem.
Foreign Securities are also rather higher, the
Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. having been sold
at 528 ; the Five per Cents., 1021 1028; and Bra-
zilian, 66; Mexican Bonds are quoted 35/.
Both Railway Shares and those in Joint-Stock Banks
have been in better demand. Among the latter London
and Westminster have found purchasers at 221 ;
Union Bank of London, 91 ' • National Provincial
Bank of England at 351, and the new Shares, 101.
In the former, Brightons have changed hands at a
further advance upon the prices of Saturday, and
are now marked 331 331 ; Great Western, 85 ; the
New Shares, 60i.; Fifths, 71 8 ; Blackwall, 71-;
Bristol and Exeter, 451; Manchester and Birming-
ham, 24 ; and Midland Counties, 60?-i.
The Bonds in which time bargains have been made
to-day are Spanish Five per Cents., 161 ; the Three
per Cents. 21 21* ; and Portuguese Five per Cents., 35.
Private letters from the manufacturing districts
are of rather a more favourable nature. Several
orders had been received for goods by the last mail
from India, and, in consequence, business had im-
proved. The mills not being yet at full work,
these had to be supplied from stock, and
for which advanced rates were being obtained.
They state also that, although the workmen have not
returned to their labour, yet no apprehension existed
of any further disturbances ; that the differences be-
tween them and the masters appeared to be "about to
be amicably adjusted very shortly.

A storm took placeintheafternoon of Wednesday
last, at Nismes, during which the lightning struck the
tower of the church of Sainte Perpetue, broke the cross
at the top, destroyed part of the cornice, set fire to the
wood-work, and then went perpendicularly down into the
body of the building. Here, after traversing the vestry
and burning the wood-work of a chapel, the fluid passed
out through a fissure made in the wall. Although the
explosion was tremendous, the Cure, who was writing in
the vestry, had sufficient presence of mind to seek assist-
ance, and join in extinguishing the fire. Material damage
was done. The gilt frame of the altar-piece was entirely
blackened. and the inkstand of the Cure was melted, and
the glass broken.
