MONEY MARKET.

SID= EXCIIANOR, FRIDAY AFTERNOON..

The unfavourable nature of the intelligence from the Cape of Good Hope has operated prejudicially on the Stock Market ; the indications of improve- ment occasionally noticeable having entirely disappeared, and for the last three days a slow process of decline having set in. The operations of the week have with few exceptions been unimportant. The Bank-broker has on one occasion sold largely ; and when we record one or two spcoulative sales of some amount, we shall have noticed every operation of moment. The decline since last Saturday has been about per cent; Consols for Money, which were then 96i, having today been as low as 96. The market became rather firmer in the afternoon, and the closing quotation may be stated at 98k for Money and 96# for Account. The books for the October dividends have all closed today, and until the llth October no money transactions can occur in any other Stock than Three per Cent-Consols. Money still continues easy ; tin. rate of discount for first- rate bills being from 2i to 3 per cent. The most remarkable feature in the Foreign Market has been a decline of more than 1 per cent in Mexican Bonds : from 28 the price has declined to 26f ; but is again slightly higher, closing this afternoon at 27. The cause of depression late be found in the small remittance made on account of the dividends by the last packet, when only 45,000 dollars were received on that account. The disputes between the Government and Signor Payno have also operated unfavourably upon the value of the Stock ; which may be said to be sustained at its present market value solely by the confident expectation of the receipt of 500,000/. assigned to the Bondholders out of the American indemnity. The other Foreign Stocks are heavy, (as is always the case when the Ccrnsol market is weak,) with but little doing. Sardinian Scrip has experienced a further decline; having dropped to 21 discount, and today done at 21 discount. Spanish Stock is heavy, in conse- quence of the uncertainty in which the issue of the American invasion of Cuba is involved.

Nothing of importance has occurred in the Railway Shares. Some indica- tions of improvement have been occasionally observable : these, however, were only ephemeral, and the prices this afternoon do not differ materially from those of last week. The chief topic of the week has been the reported junction of the North-western and Midland; but as particulars of this ar- rangement am not known, it is impossible to speculate upon its effect The prices of French Shares are without material variation, and the business transacted in them has been unimportant Sareanav TwElurE o'Ciamr.

There is no variation in price, and scarcely any business occurring, either in the English or Foreign Funds ; Consols being 96 to it for Money and 96k t for Account The French Funds fell nearly i per cent yesterday in Paris; the last price of Five per Cents being 91.75. The Railway Share Market is without material change, the following being the only bargains yet recorded —East Lancashire, 131; Great Northern, 151; Lancashire anti Yorkshire, 491; North-western,. 1131 ; Ditto Quarter-Shares, 23t ; Midland, 434 143; South-eastern, 191 19; Eastern Counties Six per Cent, 10i. SAFIIRDAY Two o•Ctocx.

The English Funds close 4 lower than in the morning, the market being heavy at current prices. A failure in the corn-trade is reported, but we have not heard to what extent the liabilities of the insolvent firm extend.

The Railway Share Market still continues to decline, the only improvement of importance observable today being in Lancashire and Yorkshire ; these Shares are scarce in consequence of the large quantity sold on speculation.
