MONEY MARKET.

• • STosic Escuswers, Faroxr ArraexooN.

The fluctuations of the English Funds have been unimportant, andthe bu-,' siness transacted insignificant. The variation in the prim of Consols during the week has not exceeded i per cent ; the closing prices this afternoon are 961 i for Money, while there are buyers at 11 for the Account.. There is no, . material change in the value of money, though there is rather more demand, for it at the current rates. The exchange upon Paris is in a slow process of decline ; receding gradually without any appearance of reaction. A bargain in French Five per Cent Routes occurred, today at 93, with an exchange of

' 25.25—the lowest quotation of an exchange recently recorded:

1 In the Foreign Market, the business transacted has not been extensive ; and, with the exception of Spanish Active Stock, almost every description of Bonds usually current has been steady. The Active Stock has not recovered the decline occasioned on Saturday by the arrival from Madrid of intelli gence unfavourable to the conversion of the Debt upon the terms proposed at the recent meeting of the London BondhOlders. After the first shock to the market, however, it has been steady at the lower prices; and the trans- actions of the last few days have been unimportant. The Russian Four- and-a-half per Cents, and other Northern European Stocks, are firm at our last quotations.

Tb.e Share Market is still in a state of improvement, and, with the excep-

tion of Great Western, almost all the principal Shares are higher than they were last week. The traffic-returns are in almost every instance higher for the past than for the corresponding week of last year ; and there is evi-. dently a greater disposition to hold Shares, both on speculation and for in- vestment, than there has for , some time been. Whether this feeling will continue, depends entirely upon the state of the truffle. It remains to be seen whether the remarkable increase under this latter head, which the re- turns of the last few weeks exhibit, . has a character of permanence, or ; whether it is merely the result of the autumnal pleasure-traffic.
