MONEY MARKEN.
STOCK ExCHANOR, FRIDAY APIRRNOON. The upward tendency in the English Funds, so conspicuous during the past month, has been at length arrested. A disposition to sell Stock was evinced on Saturday afternoon; which, coupled with a report that the Rus- sians had crossed the Danube, caused a decline after official hours of per cant; Consols then left off at 951j. They have since, with the exception of this afternoon, undergone a daily retrograde movement; yesterday they were as low as 941, but subsequently rallied 1. The market has been in- fluenced by a strong impression that the Turkish question will lead to a general disturbance of the peace of Europe. Some importance was at first attached to the departure of the Russian Consul, until it transpired that the object was to accompany the 800,000/. of gold shipped to Amsterdam on ac- count of the Emperor of Russia, arising from the sale of Exchequer Bills, and balance withdrawn from the Bank of England: a large portion of it must, however, be returned within the next four months for dividends. Money has been again in demand in the Stock Exchange, and out of doors; in conse- quence of which several applications have been made at the Bank for discount of the Dissented Stocks due in January. Respecting the Three per Cents 1751, and New South Sea Annuities, yesterday was the last day for receiving such ap- Ocations, when their transfer-books finally closed. It now appears that the Directors of South Sea Stock have expressed themselves willing to advance, as soon as expedient after the 5th January next, on application of the holders, 100/. upon every 1001. Stock, wail the act be passed for a final distribution. It is also understood that the bill about to be introduced will allow of the --947 trust clauses being rejected. The arrival of gel and New York amounted to about 256,000/. burg mention a reaction in the rate of exchange, further remittances of gold from England.

The full in Portuguese was occasioned by intel- ligence on Wednesday of a Miguelite revolt, although it has been since dis- credited. Railways have been languid, chiefly in connexion with the decline in Con- sols. The arrangement of the account on Tuesday passed off well. Up to yesterday afternoon, no recovery had taken place, and at the close the de- pression in some of the leading lines compared with last Saturday's was to the following extent—Caledonian, 2/. 15a. ; Great Northern, 2/ 10s. ; Nor- folk, South-Eastern, and York, Newcastle, and Berwick, 2L; Loudon and North-Western, and York and North Midland, 1/. 10s. ; Great Western, anal Midland, IL 5.1.; East Lancashire, and North British, 11.; Chester and Holy- head, and Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton, 10s. ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 15r. ; Aberdeen, Ss.
