THE MINCINd LANE MARKETS.
LONDON, September 15.-The Mincing
Lane markets remain quiet. Speculative
demand for rice having suddenly abated,
sales cannot be made unless at some reduc-
ton. Good to fine coffee remains firm
common kinds are not readily salable upon
previous terms 100, 146 bags are announced
for sale next Wednesday by the Netherland
Trading Company. This is full supply
considering the season OF the year. Good
ordinary Java is valued rather under
the price obtained last August. Large
supplies OF sugar have been brought
to public sale. Good refning-kind
OF West Irdias-have met with q
steady demand at tirmer rates. CrystaiZed
Demerara has advanced one shilling per
cwt. Other kinds are unchanged. Low
brown su CARS continue quiet. French loayes
have sold upon further reduced terms. The
tea market is inanimate, but considerable
arrivals will lead to good assortment, and
NAV induce the trade to buy more freely
during the next few days. Teas sold by
auction without reserve have been at lower
prices for common grades OF new and OLD
seasons. Saltpetre has again declined.
Black pepper is more readily salable at the
present low rates.
The Economist says the rates OF discount
have been maintained within little OF tue
bank charge, and further rise IN ofnclal
minimum having been thought likely any
day OF the week, bills have in some cases
been taken ut provisional rates and balances
have been held back. Now, however,
money is for the moment very abundant,
and barely 81 to "a per cent. can be OBJ
tained on short loans. Three-months' bank
okor ~
a rise in the bank rates is thought possible
any day, market rates arc not now quoted
subject to advance in that event, excepting
decline in the English railways, which
has been persistent during the week, and is
on balance considerable.
The stock markets have been steady. The
half-monthIy settlement which was con-
Guided on Thursday had its usual effect OF
leading to purchases by operators with ac-
counts open for fall on foreign stocks. The
higher rates OF interest, which are expected
to continue some time, had little effect upon
the value of public securities, although
there are few investment purchases. we
hear of few sales from miscellaneous pub
lie. There has been partial relapse III
American railway securities. AS the au-
tumn advances, money in Americans must
almost necessarily become lighter, and
spectators in United States will soon be
exposed to a much more severe test OF their
powers to carry the stocks they now hold
| than what has been exercised by the easy
conditions hitherto OF the money market
| The speculation markets are beginning tC
respond much more freely to outside occur
rences than for some time past, not because
OF the nature OF events, but rather because
OF the state Of the markets. For many
months we have had cheap money, and fur
Their, many speculative operations for fal
were long ago begun which have since beer
followed by gradual repurchases in order
| to close accounts. At present there is M
longer prospect OF very cheap money
none of the large speculative repurchase:

had so frequently to notice. American
Government securities, though the marke
has been well supported, have declined
under considerable sales this week, some
| important holders on this side being sup
posed to be getting quit Of their invest
ments.
