MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

MoNOXY EVENING.
A moderate business was transacti'd to-day in
the public securities, Confined however almost entirely-
to reul transfers, the jobbers and others evincing but
little disposition to enter into speculative operations.
Prices were maintained both for the Funded and Un-
funded Debt. Consols for present transfer have been
quoted 89/ to 89+, and for the Account 891 to 89i.
Exchequer Bills were done at the improved premium of
Saturday, viz., 17s. to 19s. ; and East India Bonds reached
13s. premium. New Three-and-a-Balf per Cents. were
at 981 to 981; Reduced Three-and-a-Half per Cents. at
99/ to 991 ; and the Three per Cent. Annuities at 89
to 894.. The only bargain in Bank Stock was at 168.
for Account. India Stock was not dealt in. _

It being now clearly ascertained that Senhor Borrajo
has the money for the dividends on the Capitalised
Stock, some parties anticipate an improvement in the
value of the Spanish Bonds. To-day, however, there
was not much doing either in them or the other Foreign
Stocks. The Active Spanish Bonds closed a shade bet-
ter for the Acnunt, viz., at 25 to 25*, but for Money
were quiet at 25. Portuguese Stock went lower, the
decline being from 34 to 33*, and 334 for the New Five
per Cents., and from 20* to 20 for the Three per Cents.
The news from Lisbon was not looked upon as favoura-
ble. Colombian Stock was rather lower, viz., 22* to
218. Mexican was not higher than 29i ; and Brazilian
receded to 651 and 65. Belgian were firm at 103 ;
French Five per Cents. at 117 f.; and Dutch Two-and-a-
Half per Cents. at 511 to 511.
Except South Western Shares, the Railways generally
were held at a lower value to-day. Great Western were
211 to 22; Birmingham, 79:4 to 80; and South Western,
191 to 20* premium. Brighton ranged from 13* to 13*;
Blackwall from 138 to ; and Midland Counties were
20 discount. London .Joint Stock Bank Shares were
21 premium ; and National Provincial Bank of Eng-
land were at par. _ _ _

(From The Sun of Last Night.)
LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JAN. 22.—The market
continues in a dull inactive state, about 3,000 bales find-
ing purchasers in the trade. In prices there is no
alteration.
LIT:ERPOOL SHARE MARKET, JAN. 22.—The quo-
tations principally on demand at the close of the week:—
Eastern Counties, 81 ; Debentures, 101.95. 2d.; Grand

ham, Half shares, 57i; Manchester and Leeds, quarter
shares, a. 18s. 6d. ; Midland Counties, 84 ; North Mid-
land, New, 36 ; York and North Midland, 92 ; Paris
and Rouen, 13.
MAN( HE-,TER STOCK • EXCHANGE. JAN. 22.—We have
bad very little business doing to-day. Local Bank Shares
are more in demand. Midland Counties, 83 to 82 ;
Great Western, 88 ; Manchester and Leeds, 72 to 73 ;
London and Birmingham, 169 to 1704 ; Sheffield and
Manchester, 30 to 32.
There are no later arrivals to-day front any quarter.
Both the English and Foreign Securities opened at the
leaving-off prices of Saturday. Consols for Money
89k 4, and 894 lor the Account; Three per Cents. Re-
duced, 894 I; Ditto Three-and-a-Half, 994 Exchequer
Bills, 17 19 prem.
Spanish Active Stock, 24i 25 ; Portuguese Five per
Cents. 34i ; ditto Threes, 204 1.
There has been- but little business transacted in the
Stock Exchange this morning, and the only alteration to
notice is in Spanish Active Stock, which has advanced
to 25j; Portuguese Five per Cents. are 334, and the
Threes 20; Colombian Bonds, 22k. Consols firm at
89* 4 for Money, and 89k for the Account; Exchequer
Bills 17 19, premium.
Very little doing in Shares; quotations the same as
Saturday.
To-morrow will be a close holiday at the Stock Ex-

change.
Consols, Money, 89ti ; Account, 8914 ; Colombian,
224; Mexican, 29 4; Portuguese, 334 34; Spanish, 251.
The action of the banking institutions upon the cur-
rency of the country is of so much importance as to
cause the
.periodical returns to be watched with con-
siderable interest. The statement in the Gazette
of last Friday evening, shows a •falling off of
nearly one million sterling in the total paper currency of
the united kingdom, but which, from the pay-
ment of the dividends, has not straitened the money
market. The Bank of England has a steadily-in-
creasing amount of the precious metals in its cof-
ers ; for, while by the November return, it was only
4,218,00001, it is now 5,629,0001., or an increase of
1,411,0001. in three mouths. Such a rapid improvement
cannot but be highly satisfactory, and will enable the
Directors of the Bank, who have lately reduced their
circulation to extend greater facilities to the trading
community.
