MONEY MARKET.
STOCK 17. X (MAMIE, Fat °Ay AFTERNOON.
The English Funds have been steady, and the transactions in them very few : the prices continue at nearly our last quotations, and nothing has occurred • which calls for any particular remark. The prices of the Foreign Funds have beeii less variable than usual ; and, with the exception of Spanish and Portuguese Bonds, these securities have been comparatively neglected. The lowest quotation of Spanish Stock occurred on Tuesday ; when, in consequence of the report of a Carlist rising in Gallicia, and the march of a Portuguese -.contingent to assist in suppressing the insurrection, the price declined to A24. This rumour, however, immediately received an official contradiction from the Pm tuguese financial agent, M. MtriDIZ ISA L. The price has since improved to 544 ; but the market has not been supported at that price, and closes to-day at 544. We are not enabled to report any-transactions either in the New Spanish Loan, or those securities which by the recent alteration of the Stock Exchange regulation have been admitted to quotation in this market. It is generally tuaderstoud that the contractors for the New Loan will nut introduce it at pre- t.eut to pubic notice. The report before alluded to was LILA W it holt' its effect ma Portuguese Bonds; which were as low as 84 but have since been at 87, and close this afternoon at 86t)lo Some inquiry has occurred for Columbian and the other South Americas Stocks; but the purchases which were made having been speculative, She prices have not been much affected. The Mining Shares, with the exception of theme of the St. John Del Rey Company are divessed, and the markets heavy, at the nominal quotations. • An improvement of about 10s. per Share has taken placer in the rice of the Del Rey ; which are now quoted, with the last payment of 23s. per Share, at 84 9 The flattering ace t recently received via New York, of the progress of the Del Monte Company, has not been confirmed ; on the contrary, the last baud& gence was of an unfavourable nature. The Shares have consequently under- gone a decline of :21., the price being now 28 to 29.
SATURDAY. TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The triumph of the popular cause in the approaching City election may be considered as certain. It is very generally reported here that the weakness of the Tory party has induced the resignation of one of the candidates, Mr. Tuomas WILSON. The report is premature; but such is the union of the Reformers, that no doubt can now be entertained of the return of the four popular candidates. In Southwark, the return of Mr. II A KV rir is secured ; and as that of Mr. II UNINIER V Was never doubtful, that borough will add its fun quota to the Anti-Tory majority in the new House of Commons. The attempt to get up a Tory opposition has completely failed ; and as up to this hour the pr 'sell Conservative candidate has not made his appearance the Reformers reckon upon returning their two candidates witleaa opposition. The buainess of the morning has been quite unimportant; the prices are generally as yester- day ; the approaching election being the all-engrossing topic. 3 per Cent. Consols Dutch 24 per Uents 53i
