THE LONDON M0NEY-MAKKET-
The value Of money continues gradually to creep
up, in epite OF the exceedingly small number Ut
mercantile bills in the discount market To-day
II per cent is the lowest discount rate at which
the banks and discount houses will work. und there
seems to he pretty general agreement that the
open market rate will be up level with the bank
minimum next week. At the same time last year

steadily leaving us, with the value Of money
half that which ra1cd in March, 1876. The bank
reserve is el3, 600, 900 now, as compared with
ell. 600, 600 then; and the private deposits
were increasing then, while now they are
declining The heavy selling Of foreign securities
to Continental markets was going on at the time
referred to, and money WIS coming here for safe
keeping rs consequence OF apprthensions OF war.
Fears on this ground having been materially al
}aycu the fnnds have been largely Withdrawn.
We believe the large hanks which Ind their suplus
balances forced into idlencss by the presence Of
these foreign uccumulations have now nearly NIL
they require to put out to1crably we'll employed
4 twe've1nonth HIS consequently wrought an i'm
portant change in tic aspect Of this money market
No gold will now come here to remain without
rise in the value Of money. This being the posi-
ton, it is not di!fcult to understand that much
more gold cannot be exported without necessitating

removed he ohatted freely on the Eqstern cues

Pacha an able and gifted statesman, but some
what addicted to drink. This. he believed,
was the direct cause of The ex.Vizier's disgrace.
1t is probable. however, that Midhat Pacha
had personal differences with the Sultan, but
foreign influence must not be excluded from
among the causes Of his misfortune.
The Chancellor highly praised The unblem.
ishable patriotic character of Edhem Pacha,
the new Grand Vizier, and considered him one
of the few incompatible Turks. He also re-
marked that the full significance of the recent
change of viziers was still understandable.
In abiding 10 the RuSso.Turkish quarrel,
The Prince expressed as bis opinion that war
was strongly probable, and that Russia would
the struggle by a direct attack on
Turkey.
Prince Bismarck is much irritated against
certain Deputies who indiscreetly disclosed
his confidential after dinner remarks. lie
contradicts having said, as alleged, that Rus.
STA was demanding subsidies from the Powers
in aid Of warlike operations against Turkey.
