From tho london News City Artisle), May Ill
To-day's measure (raisng tho rate of dscount) had

the renewed drain Of gold to America. It will not ar
mand fer specie for that quarter but It is calculated to
give further favorable turn to the continental ex-
changes and TO throw fresh inpedments 10 the way OF
mercantile romttances Of silver to the East There Is
thus every prospect that such gold comes In from
Australia and other quarters will be retained here there
by forming at least partial set off against the American
requirements Upon the extent Of the latter will depend
the answer TO the question to whether the rise In
value Of money will proceed further

unfavoFabc bank return to morrow and the demsnd for
money the stock exchange sales being effected In
reduced, contributed to the heavness Of the market
Tho continental exchanges again favorable for
this country today and will therefore stract gold to
this side. The intelligence from America next week Ia
expected with much interest both politically and hnan
London notwithstanding the discount has been raised
to per cent, largo eiux Of gold will take place from
this country
