MONEY MARKET.

STOCK EXCHANGE, FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

The foreign intelligence this week has been unimportant, and the prices of the Public Funds have been confined within a moderate range. They have occasionally shown a disposition to advance, but this has been checked through a demand for money, caused chiefly by several heavy pay- ments; including 600,000/. on the East Indian Railway, 75,000/. on the Madras line, and a final call of 15 per cent on the last 1,000,000/. of Turkish Scrip. Some relief will now be afforded by the reimbursement of 10 per cent to the English subscribers to the new French Loan ; it having transpired on Tuesday, through advices from Paris, that the applications had amounted to about 80,000,0001.; and a notification has since been given by Messrs. Baring and Messrs. Rothschild for the information of subscribers on their lists, that the whole loan having been taken by the individual appli- cations in France for 500 francs Rentes and under, no division could be made to other parties ; who may receive back their deposit on and after the 18th instant on production of the receipt. The success of this loan caused a temporary improvement in our Funds of f per cent. Consols for Money have been 911 to 921, and they leave off today at 9la 11, and 91f / for the Account. Bank Stock is 1 better ; India Stock has fallen 2 per cent. Some interest has been felt for the publication, tomorrow, of the bullion return by the Bank of England ; when the effect of the payment of the divi- dends and remittances to Paris connected with the French Loan will be exhibited ; it being reported that upwards of 1,000,000/. was remitted to France last week, and it is expected will now rapidly return to this country. The rate of exchange at Paris already shows an improvement, and the French Funds have advanced this week about 2i per cent. The returns of the Bank of France, for the past month, show that the drain of bullion observable of late had continued. The present reduction is 1,300,0001., or a total diminu-

tion of 6,400,000/. within four months. Last summer the amount had reached 20,000,0001., but is now 14,500,0001.

Some further mercantile suspensions have been announced this week. The Corn-market has declined about 5e.

In Foreign Stocks, the improvement of last week has been maintained ; and Danish Three per Cents are 2, and Swedish 1 better. Spanish is rather worse. French Scrip has reached ist 6 premium, but is now 1 lower.

Railways on the average are much the same as they were last week, after having been a little higher. The transactions are likely to be limited until the Directors' reports are circulated ; the accounts of most companies being now under inspection by the auditors. The dividend declared at the London and Greenwich Railway meeting was 5s. 3d. per share ; the balance was. 11,566/. French Shares are from 11. to 21. better. SATURDAY. TWRINI o'Crocx.
