THE MONEY MARKET.

STOCK EXCHANGE, FRIDAY EVENING.

The 3 per Cents. closed on Saturday at 841 to IF, with nothing doing. On Monday, there were a few purchases, and 12 per cent. of advance in consequence. On Tuesday, there was again a slight fall, which continued On Wednesday and yesterday. To-day the prices are the same as on Monday, 84, and rather more business doing. Exchequer Bills are 9s. to I Is. premium. Speculation is busy with what may be the result of the labburs of the Bank Committee. Looking to the absolute impossibility of any settlement of the question this Par- liament, and looking also to the very small weight which any resolution (should it come to any) of the present Parliament will have with the next, we think that speculation may lie quiet until next Parliament is chosen. But idle men must have something to speak about ; and, unluckily, most of the men in the City are at present idle.
