THE MONEY MARKET.
STOCK EXCHANGE, FRIDAY EVENINC.—Consols closed on Saturday at 83/, flat. The flatness was chiefly attributed to some very large sales of Exchequer Bills by the Bank of England, in consequence of which the premium on these securities fell so low as 6s. to Ss. A sale of 100,0001. on Tuesday, brought the premium down to 5s. Wednesday was settling-day, and some difficulties were anticipated; but every thing passed off smoothly, if not satisfactorily; Consols left at 82Z to t, for the August account. No defaulter was named on Wednesday 5 but on Thursday it appeared that there had been a couple, but of small consideration. Consuls closed this evening at 82t, steady. Exchequer Bills have recovered from their extreme depression ; they are now at a premium of 10s. to 12s. Portuguese Stock has been partially inquired after, and has maintained a better price during the week, in consequence of a belief that the reign of Miguel was approaching its termination. It was 49 on Thursday. In Brazilian Bonds there is little alteration ; they are 503 to 51.
SArtrunAv, TWELVE O'CLOCK.—The Consol Market opened at S21, and it is now at 821, sellers.
