MONEY 'MARKET.
-theca Ezcnsees. FRIDAY Arm:soon.
Confidence in the continued success of the Allied Army is daily increasing ; but the victories of late-have been so numerous that they are now to a cer- tain extent discounted, and whenever an advance of a few eighths per cent is produced on the Funds, the dealers find some ready sellers. The present week much resembles the last in this respect. The -intelligence on Monday, of the successful attack on Taganrog, and further accounts of the capture of the Mamelon battery, caused an improvement of f per cent ; and Consols for July were done at 921: they have since ranged between 92 and 94.. Yesterday they declined 4; and it created the more surprise, as a fur- ther reduction took place in the Bank-of-England rate of discounts- now 34 per cent. Today, Consols opened higher, and were done at 914 ; but a renewal of sales caused flatness, and they leave off at 94. Terminable Annuities (New Loan) are steady at 16 15-16the. Om- nines is about the same as last week, Exchequer Bills are 28. lower. The Bank rate of discount has not been so low as 31 per cent since the autumn, of 1853: the bullion then varied between 17,000,0001. and 18,000,0001., and Console were 98 : the bullion is now about the same as at that time, but the notes unemployed have increased more than 2,000,0001. Gold continues to arrive in large sums from America; the total this week is about 356,0001. ; notwithstanding which, the amounts in the New York banks exhibit a slight increase, and the rate of discount in that city is now as low as 54 6 per cent. Among other favourable features this week, may be named the alteration in the weather, decline in the Corn-market, and a return to firmness in the French rate of exchange, -which removes the probability of remittances from this side.
The French Market has fluctuated rather more than our own ; and the expectation of a new loan has proved a barrier to any permanent improve- ment on the announcement of victories. Foreign Securities have been steady, and very little alteration has taken place. The principal descriptions have been -well maintained, and Austrian is 1 better. Sardinian has fallen 1. Turkish has been unsettled, and is at present lower.
Railways were rather buoyant on Monday but they subsequently showed weakness, ()wino° the doubtful aspect of Console, and the preparations for the settlement of the Account, which took place yesterday. Upon its com- pletion, there was a better market; but today prices are 108. to 15s. lower in many eases. London and North-Western leaves oil at 1034 4; Lancashire and Yorkshire, at 82 4; Midland, at 74! 54; Great Western, steady at 68 9. In the French Market, Paris and Rouen has improved 2l. 10s. ; and Rouen and Havre 108. Eastern of France has declined 1/. ; and Northern of France and Paris and Lyons, 108.
