THE MONEY MARKET.
STOCK EXCHANGE, FRIDAY EVENING.
Consols left off on Saturday at 03 if, and Exchequer Bills at 7s. and Ss. prem. Con- • siderable excitement was produced on Tuesday by the announcement in the Herald of a revolution in Madrid; but it was of brief continuance. There has indeed been very .little business done daring the week, either in British securities or Foreign. Money is still exceedingly scarce, and 5 per cent. has been again commonly demanded and given for accommodation for short dates. The Quarantine regulations, especially in Spain and the ports of the Mediterranean, threaten to produce great and serious inconvenience The merchants, unwilling to subject their property to long and hazardous exposure, refuse orders; and the manufacturer and workman remain in consequence without or- ders in their turn. Consols close to-day, as they closed on Saturday, 831f ; Exchequer Bills are a little lower—they close at 5s. and 6s. prem.
