MONEY MARKET.

Strom EXCHANGE, FRIDAY ArricaSocin.

The Stock Market has been heavy, and it continues depressed. There is evidently an indisposition amen.. capitalists for long investments: money is consequently to be' had, at low fates of interest, only for short periods. Hence, many capitalists who have -been 'in the habit of lending money on Consols., were unwilling to continue their loans ; and upon the settlement of the Account, yesterday, some very heavy deliveries of Stock occurred. The price of Consols for Money has been as low as 96t ;r thus marking a decline of f per cent' from the quotations of Saturday last. The market, however, closes slightly firmer ; the price for Money this afternoon being 96-1 it and for the February Account 96i A. The exchange upon Paris still continues to decline, and the rate today is .24.921 per .11. sterling, nearly as low as when the Bank raised its rate of discount, when it was 24.90. On Thursday it was anticipated that the rate would be advanded to 3i per 'tent ; Whew- ever still continues at 3 per cent, and the weekly excitement on the subject is adjournedlill next Thursday. ' In the Foreign Market, the business transacted has been unimportant. I The half:monthly settlement 'occurred on Wednesday ; and money, though in demand, was not so searcess on the last der of the year. The " continua- tion " was heavy, however, upon Mexican Bonds and the South American Stocks. Spanish Stock has not been affected by the recent Change of Mi- nistry : this event has not (as usual) peltthe speculators in motion.

The Railway Shares are generally lower. A cheek has evidently been given to speculation by the recent measure of the Bank Directors, and the belief that the rate of discount will be further advanced' still tends to keep down prices The The traffio in French Shares, which Was recently so active,

-appears-to entirely subsided : the transactions have-keen fest, but prices are well supported.
