MONEY MARKET.

STOCK EXCHANGE, FRIDAY APTXKNOON.

Business in the Market for English securities has been active during the -week, and quotations have experienced a pod deal of fluctuation. Prices were firm at the commencement, owing to reports of an intended reduction of French armaments ; such reports, however, were not long credited, with the usual unhappy disposition to mistrust the Emperor : this, with the un- certainty as regards the Indian Budget and Loan, caused considerable heavi- ness, and from 951, 1, the highest figure of Monday, the Market declined to 94f 94f. The statement in the Honiteur that a reduction in the Army and Navy was really and at once to take place, the Market yesterday morning opened per cent higher, 94 95k; but did not long remain at that price, and before the close of the day there were sellers at 95, during the morning there was one sale of 100,000/. The chief cause of the depression is the ex- pectation that the India Loan will be for 7,000,0001. Money has been in good demand, and the rate on Government securities has ruled at about lf per cent. Today there has been very little doing, and the Market has re- mained unchanged at 941 95; Reduced and New Three per Cents close at 96 94.

The Foreign Market has been quiet, and prices show little or no alteration upon those of last week, the variations have been immaterial. Turkish Six per Cents close 81 82, and the New 71 72. Russian Stock is finally

98 100, and Austrian 5 dis. par. ; Mexican has been 18f 19 all the week. Peruvian Four-and-a-half per Cents, 89 91; and the Three per Cents, 6970; Buenos Ayres, 71 73; Ditto Three per Cents, 174 184 ; Venezuela Three per Cents, 27f 28k; Grenada Active, 17 18; Grenicla Deferred, 5 5f ; Por- tuguese, 44 45; Sardinian, 85 87; and the Victor Emmanuel Mortgage Loan, 89 91; Spanish, 44 44k; Money has been plentiful at about 3 per cent.

A considerable fluctuation has occurred throughout the week in the value of the leading lines in the Railway Share Market, but the final quotations, in sympathy with the Funds, are all lower; averaging 10s. to Lbs. per share. Attention his been principally given to the settlement of the half-monthly Account yesterday and today but, independently of transactions in con- nexion with that event, a geed deal of bona fide burliness has been nego- tiated. Contangos and rates of interest were light during the settling. The last prices are as follows—London and North-Western, 944 95; London and South-Western, 95 96. Great Western, 591 591 ; Midland, 103f 104j; Lancashire and Yorkshire,944 95; Chester and Holyhead, 49 50; Cale- donian, 411 41k; Blackwell, -61 61; Great Northern, 102 104; • North Staffordshire, 4# 4f din; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, 351 351 ex div. - London and Brighton, 109 111; South-Eastern and Dover, 211 22; Eastern Counties, n n. The Markets at the close present a somewhat steadier appearance. The Foreign Share Market has been chiefly effected by telegrams from the Paris Bourse. Prices after varying about 10s. per diem, Settle down with rather firm aspect. Namur and Liege, 8 81 • Northern of France, 37 37k; Paris and Lyons, 341 34f ; Lombardo-Venetian, 2f 2f for the Old, and for the New, 2f 2k; Sambre and Meuse, 614k.
