THE MONEY MARKET.

STOCK EXCHANGE, SATURDAY MORNING, HALF-PAST TEN.—Our Stock Market does not flourish ; on the contrary, a great deal of Stock has been sold, and prices have fallen, and are falling. On Monday, Consols for Account were done at 931, and afterwards fell to 921, but recovered to 93. On Wednesday, the first price was 93, but it fell, before the end of the day, to 92fr. On Thursday, it advanced to 924, but fell to 92i. Yesterday, it again touched 921, but fell to 91i. And this morning the market opened at 92, but quickly fell to 911 to and now remains so. The tendency is downwards, unquestionably. The occasional advance of prices is probably owing to the exertions of the Mammoth, but every rise tempts fresh sales, and the Bears (or speculators for a fall) seem to have the day so far—but there is no saying. In the meantime, the fall in Consols diminishes the prospect of the reduction of the Four Per Cents, and their price has risen to 102. Money is not scarce, and Exchequer Bills maintain their price.

In the Foreign Marker, Greek, which had advanced on Tuesday to 37, has since fluctuated between 34i and 351. In the other Bonds, there is no change worthy of remark. But it is something quite new here, that they do not fall with Consols. However, that they should keep up, if Consols continue to fall, is held to be an impossibility in the annals of stock-jobbing. HALF-PAST TWELVE.—The Consol Market is a shade higher and the prices are tolerably steady at 911 to 1.—In the Foreign Market there is literally nothing doing.

The Honourable James Abercombie is appointed Lord Chief Baron for Scotland, in the room of Sir Samuel Shepherd, who has resigned in consequence of ill health. This appointment, which was offered to Mr. Abercrombie in the kindest manner, will be highly popular in Scotland.

Sir Stratford Canning, immediately on his arrival from Constantinople, waited upon the King, by Royal command, when his Majesty was graciously pleased to confer upon him, quite unexpectedly, the honour of Knight of the Bath, accompanied by the most kind and affectionate sentiments of personal regard and attachment to himself, and the memory of his deceased relative.
