THE MONEY MARKET.

STOCK EXCHANGE, SATURDAY MORNING.—CODSOls, which closed at 9If ort Saturday, opened on Monday at 911 f, for Money and for the Account, with a very steady Market, but without any particular indication of an ap- proaching rise : indeed there was nothing stirring to affect them. On Tues- day, however, they rose to 92 for Money, and 914 for the Account; acid bets were offered that they would reach 93 before the end of the week. From Tuesday they made a steady progression to 924 ; and at one time yesterday they were on the point of 921 ; but sales to the amount of nearly 300,0001. by two houses, one of which was said to act for an eminent Government banker at the West End of the town, reduced the price to 92fr ; at which they closed. It does not appear, however, that there was the slightest ground for supposing that these sales proceeded from .political information, or a want of confidence in the stability of the Market. They were the ordinary transfers of business ; and the mere fact of their having been in part affected by a banker known to be connected with the Government, led to a supposition for the moment that there was some political cause for the operation. In Ex- chequer Bills and India Bonds there have been many fluctuations' during the week : the former opened on Monday at 76, and rose to 77, but yesterday they had declined to 70. India Bonds which on Monday were down at 70, closed yesterday at 68.

In the Foreign Market, the operations have been rather extensive, but the

prices have not varied materially. The folloWing were the closing prices of Monday of the Stocks in which business was done ; and to them we add the closing prices of yesterday :—Brazilian 66a; Colombian 2041 ; Greek 26+ ; Mexican 6 per Cent. 22+; Neapolitan 99; Peruvian 15 ; Portuguese 50 ; Russian 106; Spanish 90. Yesterday the closing prices were—Brazilian 651; Colombian 19; Danish 744 ; French 3 per Cent. 84, with an exchange of 25.70; Greek 264 ; Neapolitan 981; Russian 10811 ; Spanish•981.

The speculation in Greek Stock seems to have been pushed to some ex- tent ; owing perhaps to the belief which is entertained in the City, that in arranging the affairs of Greece a new loan will be wanted, under the guaran- tee of the Allied Powers, and that the present Bonds will be gradually brought up to 40. A great capitalist, who seldom operates in the minor stocks without good information, has been lately purchasing Greek Bonds ; and this circumstance has tended much to keep up the idea of an intended new loan. Large transfers have been made during the week of Consols into the French Rentes. The amount transferred yesterday by two persons was upwards of 50,0001. The City capitalists appear to have no dread of any political revulsion in France ; and many, for the sake of the larger interest, purchase in the French 5 per Cents instead of our Consols.

• In Shares there is a little doing. The Anglo-Mexican Mine Shares are at 26+; the Brazilian Imperial at 68 ; the National at 15+. Some Real del Monte Shares, upon which 4001. each had been paid, were sold yesterday at 724 each; and this was considered a good market.

ONE o'caoca..—The Market has been very steady during the whole of the morning. Consols opened at 924 4, and remain at the same price. In the Foreign Funds there is very little doing : Greek Stock is still on the rise.
