CITY, HALF-PAST TWELri.

This is the settling day in the Consol Market, and the
stock Exchange is in a most agitated state. The amount of
the differences has been most extensive, and several de-
faulters have already spoken, although at this early hour, it
is impossible to give an exact account. Some individuals,
it is calculated, will be entirely ruined. The fluctuation
during the Account has been about 4i per Cent. Consols
have been as high as 921, and as 86. The individual who
has been noticed as having speculated largely in Shares,
and whose differences amounted to twenty-six thousand
pounds, will, it appears, only come forward with
6,000 as a compromise, which, we understand, for want of
better prospects, has been accepted. It is calculated be-
fore the account is wound up, very great mischief will
be done. It proves a Bull account, and this party will
suffer most severely. The quotation for money is now at
and the price for the new account is at 861 with
a desponding appearance.
We have nothing at present doing in our Foreign Market,
the attention of the brokers and jobbers being entirely given
up to the consol settlement, and we have rarely seen so much
alarm and anxiety in the winding up as that displayed in the
arrangement of the present one. The business done has
been of the most extensive description, and from the violence
of tho variations since the last settlement, some of those who
consider themselves most cunning at backing out, have been
entrapped most seriously.

TWO O'CLOCK.

Happily, the forebodings of the early part of the day have
not been realised, and the Settlement has passed over with-
out any defaulter being declared. Some minor adjustments
have, however, been effected, and several accounts have
been carried over. To-morrow is the pay-day, and anxiety
is yet felt for its passing over. Money has been in great
request, and 4h to 5 per cent. has been the common rate of
interest. Consols for Account are at 861.
The speculators are directing their attention to the new
Dutch Loan of 20,000,000 guilders, which we learn, by the
Rotterdam accounts, was expected out at a premium two per
Cent. The terms are considered tolerably favourable, all
circumstances considered.

We have nothing of any moment doing in our Foreign
Securities. Somo rather heavy sales of Spanish Stock have
had the effect of causing a decline in these Bonds to 211,
with a tendency for further decline. Russian Bonds are
I)6i to 97, and Brazilian 63/ to 64.
The duty on foreign what has risen is. per quarter. It
is now 245. Bd.

CITY, lIALF:PAST TWO.

Consols may be quoted at present at 86i for this time ;
Q6a for next.
No defaulters are announced up to the present time ; but
it is feared there will be several to-morrow.
