MONEY MARKET.

STOCK EXCHANGE, FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

The week has been barren of events, and the fluctuation of the English Funds as limited as usual. The only variation in Consols for Account has been from buyers to sellers at 86*; the closing price today being 86* I. Reports have been prevalent of the insolvency of a Joint Stock Bank; and it is further added that the establishment will appear in the Gazette of this evening. The London business of the copartnery is very important; its principal operations being the conduct of the business arising from its numerous country branches. In the Foreign Market, the only relief to the torpor into which business has fallen has been the occurrence of some rather extensive transactions in Mexican Stock, which has continued in demand, and has been as high as 19*: a reaction of about 1 per cent occurred, in consequence of a general disposition among the speculative holders to realize; another set of buyers have since made their ap- pearance, and the market has resumed its onward movement; the closing quota- tions of this afternoon being 18i 19*. Portuguese Bonds have continued at the advanced prices given in our last report; the recurring arrival of every mail for the Peninsula bringing some remittances, however small, on account of the dividends.

In the Railway Share Market, prices had till today continued nearly at our last quotations; and in some instances symptoms of improvement were visible. Today, however, a change for the worse is apparent; and in some of the lines, especially those connected with the Midland, the depression has been greater than ordinary. York and North Midland have fallen to a discount; these Agues, upon which 50/. is paid, having at one period been saleable for more than 1001. per share. The quotations even of best lines still continue miserably low, and there is no appearance of any resumption of investment. The French and Foreign lines are entirely neglected, and without any transactions or fluctuations of Im- portance.

The accounts of the Bank of England for the week ending the 30th September, exhibit, when compared with those of the preceding week, the following results=
