THE MONEY MARKET.
STOCK EXCHANGE, FRIDAY EVENING.
Consols closed on Saturday at 838; Exchequer Bills at 7s. to 9s. prem.; Belgian Stock, the contract price of which is now reported to have been 72 only, at 4 per cent discount. The rapid fall of the French Funds led to a considerable depression, as. usually happens, in the English. The fall was not, however, great, although the aspect of the Market was gloomy, and all manner of sinister rumours were in circulation. The lowest price on Wednesday was 521; but the Market afterwards rallied, and closed at 834. On Thursday, the gloom was dispersed, and prices rose once more to 84. The farther decline of French Rentes on Wednesday, produced to-day some flatness in the Market; but the closing price does not greatly differ from that of yesterday; it is 834. EXCIIC- quer Bills have risen to 10s. and I Is. prem. Belgian Stock, which was at one time done at 3 per cent, discount, leaves off at 11 to 1 discount.
