10 OCTOBER 1868, Page 3

Throughout the week there has been a steady feeling in

the market for Home Stocks ; but yesterday Consols closed weaker at 94+ 1 for money, and 941 1 for the November account. Reduced and New Three per Cents. were 93 to 1. The principal feature of the week is the introduction of the long-delayed Italian Loan, which was brought forward on Monday last. The amount is 9,404,7621., in bonds of 100/., at 81/. 7s., at which price they will yield an interest of 9i per cent. The closing quotation for the scrip yesterday was par to f premium. Spanish bonds have been subject to considerable fluctuation, but there is a strong feeling apparent as to the success of the Revolution. Italian stocks generally have been weaker. In the Railway Market, the un- favourable nature of the traffic returns has operated prejudicially on prices, but, at the close of the market, there was more firm- ness shown. The supply of capital in the Discount Market has been on the increase, and the quotation for good thirty days' paper in Lombard Street is still 11 1 per cent. The stock of bullion in the Bank of England is now 20,707,9451.; in the Bank of France, 50,036,0001.
